The census bureau estimated that
farm values in Tulare county, Call
fornia, had increased over $4,000, 900
from 1904 to 1910. A large part Of
this gain was due to electric service
in the county, yet the total invest
ment In the electric service was less
than 10 per cent Of the gain in land
values. The installation Of a 20 horse
power motor may change the value Of
hundred acres Of land from $40 to
$500 per acre. From 1892 to 1914
California water power increased from
about 600 to nearly 100000 horse
power. Water power is not like TIM
Der, coal, oil, minerals or other prod
ucts Of the public lands. The water
is not made less valuable but more
valuable by development, as the pow
er resulting is sold to those requiring
service and the result is the develop
ment Of the state.

Minister Somewhat Puzzled.

Here is story which DIR. Samuel
Tough, president Of Baker university,
told on himself. When he was young
Methodist preacher, just beginning his
course in the ministry, friend asked
him to go out into the country and
preach the funeral sermon Of young
farmer who had Just died. Certainly,
I would not refuse such a request II
the family desire it," Doctor Tough
said. "Well, the family wants you to
conduct the funeral" the friend re-
piled. "The father Of the young man
is rather peculiar" he fastened to ex-
plain. HE does not want the Catholic
priest to preach the sermon, and he
has no use for Protestant preachers,
but he says you will do all right" Doc
tor Tough preached the funeral SER
mon, but he is not quite certain to this
day upon what grounds he was select
ed for the duty.

BERGEN REPUBLICANS
HOLD FINE LAWN MEET.

The Republican presidential cam
paign in Bergen county was launched
by the Ridgewood Republican Club on
the spacious lawn of Judge Doremus
last Saturday evening. 1t was novel
ty in it's social atmosphere, pictur-
esque success in it's setting and on the
whole strong appeal to the women to
embrace the Republican party as the
one fitted for them.
Judge Doremus had planned thing
Of beauty, combining the richness of a
spacious well kept lawn with a stage
of American flags completing the
scheme of fete which delighted the
women and charmed the men. A mu-
steal program, vocal and instrumental,
by artists of note interspersed the pO-
litical speeches.
Everybody of political prominence,
with their wives, were there, and even
the voice of Senator Harding, candi-
date for President, was heard-on the
monograph.
Among those Of county prominence
noted at the lawn party were: Judge
and Mrs. John B. Zabriskie, Surrogate
and Mrs. J. Blauvelt Hopper, Sheriff
and Mrs. Joseph Kinzley, Jr., Freehold
er and Mrs. c., K, Allen, Mr.. and Mrs.

Theater Mass Meet'g
At Palisade School

The massmeeting called for Thurs
day evening of this week at the Pail
SADIE Public School to consider the
matter of erecting a large building at
Palisade Junction by the Palisade
Theater Corporation, while not at
tended by as large crowd as would
have been desired, proved to be a very
interesting meeting. The promoters of
the enterprise had brought along a
wash drawing of the proposed build
ing which everybody enjoyed seeing
1t is very pretentious structure some
225 by 80 feet. 1t contains five stories
besides the moving picture theater
with a seating capacity of 1000.
On the west or Edgewood Lane side
Of the building it is proposed to have a
community house containing large
hall 45 by 80 feet. This will have gal
lery and dressing rooms opening from
the balcony. There will be double
stage between the two large halls
which will make it the most inviting
and complete arrangement. The meet
ing was presided over by George D.
Rodeles, who explained the call, and
talked largely upon the enterprise as
a whole. He said that it would fill
long felt want in Palisade and
give us competition by having
Stores. Harry Schall also gave a
full detailed account Of the basis on
which the promotion of the enterprise
had been made. The estimates were
highly interesting, being $125,O00 of
preferred stock and $4,000 of common
stock. According to the estimate the
business would show a net profit of
over $4,000 per year. Interesting
talks were made by President e. T.,
Kelly and Mr. Krebs and Mr.. Quigley.
All of the talks were highly entertain
ing, particularly the one made by Mr..
Peters, who told in general way of
the success of the moving picture bust
ness, having been associated with it
from the very beginning. 1t is pro-
posed to solicit some subscriptions
from the people of Palisade, and Mr..
Rode,es and the others gave very
good account of themselves and Of the
enterprise. There is no doubt but that
everybody was intensely interested in
the meeting, and what they saw and
heard 1t will undoubtedly be the
most attractive thing ever put up for
the future development Of Palisade,
and should aid property values in
general.

THE LEAGUE THE ISSUE.

The visit of Candidate Cox to Pres
ident Wilson last Sunday developed
the fact set forth in the platform of
the San Francisco convention, that
the League of Nations would be the
one outstanding issue of the campaign.
The Washington conference sets at
rest any thought that might have eX-
listed about the party's stand.
While the Democrats have been out
spoken on the treaty and the league,
the Republicans are less open, and
Candidate Harding is trying to pin
Governor Cox down to more delicately
definite expression as to the details of
his creed in the race. This places the
Republicans on the aggressive, but it
does not necessarily place the Demo-
Gratis on the defensive. To the con-
trary, ex-President Taft and Senator
Johnson having accepted the Chicago
plea on the league, it looks like there
might still be fears that all Repub-
licans might not want to support the
platform that declares so plainly for
the Lodge reservations, which Presi-
dent Wilson says virtually kill the
league by taking the heart out of it,
AT all events, the campaign may now
be said to be better defined than at any
time since the two conventions adj
journed. The voter now gets his facts
hot off the griddle, and, paying his
money, he takes his choice. Since both
party leaders feel so cock sure that
they have the winning hand, we shall
all have now to sit tight and await the
passing days till November 2, when
it will all be over but the shouting.

THE VILLAGE PAPER.

A regular subscriber said the other
day, "Why don't you put something
in your sheet worth while? Asked if
. he never read 1t, he politely said he did
not. Why he pays for it is a mystery.
May be he is mistaken about not
reading it, But there are people like
that. And generally their opinions are
sincere, though they may not know it.
The village newspaper is the most i'm
portant publication in the whole world,
regardless of whether it contains much
or little. If it is any account at all, 1t
chronicles local events, and most of
the time with form of fidelity that
cannot be mistaken. The local editor
is most important parsonage. Peo-
pie look up to him far more than they
do the editor himself. This is what
gives the village paper it's intimate
touch and appeal. 1t is the human
side of the home folk that makes every
citizen of town read the town paper.
And when he goes away to the big city
to live, the recollections of the village
paper--the home paper-fOllOw him
wherever he goes. Perhaps he was
once high school student and grad
uated, and the local paper recorded the
fact. Maybe he was at one time a
great local ball player; he can never
forget the fine write-up he got once
when he distinguished himself in the
game with the Podunk Reds. He was
playing third base, and got everything
that came his way, then hit the ball
so hard the game was won by his side
gets over what the home paper said
of that moment of his life. Oh, there
are so many things in life that make
the home paper dear! His mother
died, or his child, or his dear wife, and
the kind friends on the paper told of
the unhappy moment as only the feel
ing heart of writer who knows how
to tell of such things can. Don't be-
little the home paper. One of these
days you may have occasion to regret
it. Nobody is as kind to the general
public as the village writer. Most
generally he says it just right, too. He
is on the ground and knows how. The
most heart, the most soul, comes from
the village paper 1t cannot come
from any other source with the same
tenderness of appeal. There is more
of earnestness, more of sincerity in the
local paper than in the finest metro
politan newspaper ever published. The
most that is natural and true; the
best that can be said about people and
things comes from the inner depths OF
the village newspaper. 1t does not
matter that it may be dull at times;
news does not always come in guam
tity; things do not always happen
frequently, but whenever they do, de-
pend upon 1t, the items will be prop
erly handled by the local scribe. The
village paper may not be always pop
ular, but it is always necessary. The
man who undertakes to underrate 1t
is digging at vital community asset.
