B. {. RIVENbURGH
GOING TO COAST

Bertram G. Rivenburgh, commits.
sioner of public lands, today con
firmed a report that he will leave soon
for a vacation trip on the mainland.
Mrs. Rivenburgh will accompany him
and they will visit on the Pacific
Coast
Rivenburgh does not intend to visit
Washington as a street rumor today
had him doing. He says he will at
tempt to get back to Hawaii by July
r>xhen the 1917 appropriation is due.
During the recent legislative ses-
sion a resolution was introduced to
send the commissioner to Washing
ton for the purpose of dealing with
land matters relating to Hawaii, and
it was probably this fact that favored
the street report with the rumor that.
he would make the national capital
on objective of this visit.

LARGEST GRAPHIC
METER IN WORLD
Was Built to Order Of Mississippi
River Power Company and
10 Installed in Power
House,

The largest graphic meter ever
built is in the Mississippi River
Power company's plant 1t was
built to special order by the Ester
line Graphic Meter company, has a
capacity of 100000 kilowatts, and
draws the output Of the entire sta
ton on a single load.
Before this meter was installed a
graph curve was drawn for each tur.
bine and the output curve for the
entire station com puted by, synchro-
niZing the curves for each turbine.
This process was a time waster and
so the Esterline company was COM
missioned to build a meter that
would take care Of the entire plant.
The order for the instrument was
placed IN April. 1916, and in Febru-
airy of this year it was installed and
put In operation.
The Esterline Graphic. a monthly
publication Of the construction COM
pany, contains writeup of the meter.
The illustrations include an interior
view OF the power house showing the
meter in operation, and several pic
lures of the meter in course of con-
struction.

Committee From Retailers League
Will Confer With City over Dee
Moines River Viaduct's
Condition.
IT is CALLED UNSAFE
Some Of the Members Think Floor
Might Break Through and
Cause Lawsuits for
tho City.

The Keokuk Retailers league dis
cussed the condition Of the roadway
across the Des Moines river bridge,
and decided that it was becoming
dangerous to traffic The road COM
mittee of the league was appointed
to make an investigation and to con-
fer with the city council with view
to repairing or replacing the road
way. The roadway on both sides
resembles devils washboard,' and
there are several deep holes, which
may break through at any time. Sew
eral members in discussing the road
way said they considered it abso-
lutely dangerous, and thought the
commissioners should be aroused to
the situation, and if necessary, bor-
row money to repair the flooring.
President Justice of the league,
spoke OF the repairing of the road
between the bridge and Alexandria,
and suggested that the business men
OF Wayland and Keokuk might Co.
operate in seeing that the road was
kept in good shape. There would be
mutual advantages, he said. More
auto parties would come to Wayland.
and many from there doubtless would
go to Keol1uk. It was announced that
the commissioners expect to put the
road from the bridge to the pave.
ment on Commerce. alley In first
class shape, and that the Keokuk
Merchants association would oil it.
The weeds along the side are being
cut now.
The road between the bridge and
Alexandria over which the league
Travelled last night, has been put in
to good shape by the work done on
1t this spring. There are still several
bad places. but where the most SER
ious washouts occurred near the big
railroad trestle, the highway has
been filled and put into first class
condition.
The oiling OF the river road be.
tween Keokuk and Montrose was dis.
cussed. Also the oiling OF the stretch
from the foot OF Absolute hill to the
city limits. The league informally
discussed the oiltng of city streets.

KEOKUK MEN
AT FORT RILEY
Victor w. Russell and Anthony e
George Have Been Transferred
to Kansas Training
Camp.

! Anthony e. George and Victor w
I Russell of this city, who recently en-
listed in the medical corps, are now
located at Fort Riley, Kansas, having
been transferred to that place from
Jefferson barracks about week ago
In letter to The Gate City, Mr..
Russell states that there are thirty
thousand soldiers at Fort Riley now,
with more coming every day. The
contents of the letter follow:
I'VE arrived here last Friday from
Jefferson barracks, Mo-. and find quite
change in conditions, especially the
weather, as the temperature here av.
erages about one hundred in the shade
but as the stiff breeze is blowing we
stand it fairly well.
I'VE are enlisted in the medical
corps. but have to take all the drills
and formations just the same as the
infantry.
Our chow Is nothing fancy but
very substantial and nourishing. We
are at present sleeping in tents but
when assigned to company we will
be removed to company barracks. with
better cots and a private mess hall.
Anthony has set up a barber shop
and intends to hang out a shingle as
the shop Is Overcrowded nearly every
afternoon and evening.
This place is very picturesque, To-
Gated in valley surrounded by hills,
upon which the cavalry. field artillery
and medical corps hold their drills
every morning. except Sunday.
There are thirty thousand men sta
toned here now and more are COM
ing every day, and except for a very
few, every one is a real man.
Before closing, would like to say
that Anthony and I would enjoy read
ing The Gate City very much. We
met Lieutenant Gilfillan yesterday.
and called On him at his barracks last
night Nearly all our conversation
was about home and old times and we
almost imagined ourselves back in
Keokuk. He gave US some old Gates
and we fairly ate them, as We both
confess there is no paper like the old
Gate City.
Kindly enter our subscription to
The Gate City for three months as it
is impossible to tell just how long we
will be here.
with best personal regards to the
Keokuk boys. we remain.
