a graduated motor vehicle license, and
in so-doing this class OF vehi
cles from liability to assessment for
personal taxes. Under the plan as
suggested the greater part of the
O obtained from this source
would be expended in building and
maintaining the m~ain-traveled thor
oughfares within the county in which
the motor vehicles are owned.
According to the statement of Chas.
McCaffree, secretary of the Sioux
Falls chamber of commence, the pro
posed plan met with favor by many
of the commissioners, who believed it
would solve the problem OF financing
the building of a more permanent
class of highways than are now being
constructed under the federal and
state aid plan.
There are said to be a few commls-
%sioners, who while favoring the pro
posed plan, oppose the complete ad-
ministration of the funds derived by a
state highway commission, %declaring
that the commissioners of a county
were more competent to determine the
kind of road-building best suited to
their locality. Contrary to this sug-
gestion it is pointed out that a more
uniform plan of highway building can
be procured under a state board than
by that proposal by the directors and
at the same time it will avoid fric-
ton between boards of commission
ers in adjoining counties.
Very few counties in this state can
point to any great roads that have
been built by their county commits
sioners. The state highways and the
important trails are the only exam
pies of good roads in the state and
the county commissioners can claim
no credit for their construction. The
county commissioners have shown nc
great evidence of their being more
competent to administrate road funds
and in determining the kind of road
building best suited to their locality

Suits

The main feature of the new Spring
suit style is the length of the jacket, with
the short length prevailing. Belted coats
with ripple peplums vie with the Eton and
pony jackets for popularity. Suit skirts,
both plain and pleated, are of conservative
fulness, and shorter than last season.
Trimming of rows of buttons close set
on sleeves or at the side, or braid and en-
broidery. and vests of brocaded or novelty
silks, give hint of the charm of the new
suits.
The popular fabrics are Poiret Twill,

for the Republican nomination as trus
tee Of the Sanitary District is stirring
very much interest among the citizens
Of Chicago, Cook County. The Repub-

Of It's cabinet members for the respon-
sible position Of Sanitary District trus-
tee.
Mr.. Eller is 4 member Of Mayor
yThompson's Cabinet, filing the Office
Of city sealer for the last hVe years
with merit to himself and prestige to
his superior. The very many practical
Innovations Mr.. Eller has introduced in
the execution of his duties as city
sealer are the very best evidence Of
his sound business Judgment and close
attention to his public duties. Never
before has the city sealer's Office been
conducted so efficiently and in such
close contact with the purchasing re-
taller and ultimate consumer. Under
his sedulus supervision, short weighing
and measuring are continually on the
decrease. His educational work among
the various elements Of peddler, buck
ster, and street merchant has resulted
in developing a keen sense of com
nereial honesty amongst them The
large offenders know very well that
Mr.. EIler is q public Official who will
not eOuntenance any semblanee of
irregularity on their part and must
keep out Of his jurisdiction.
