Unused Water over

Fifty million horse power comprises
the total, both steam and water gen.
Grated, now in use in the United
States. 1t is conservatively estimated
that as much more can be developed
by utilization of the water power re-
sources. The Department of the In
terror has placed the potential water
power at 60,000,000 horse power, Of
which only 100000 is now devel-
oped. This saves the country more
than 100000 tons of coal annually.

Ten Vacancies to Be Filled.

SpeculatiOnS are rife as to whom
Gov. John J. Blaine will appoint to
fill the ten vacancies now before him.
It is expected that appointment will
be made for a railroad commissioner
to succeed John S. Allen, whose term
expired the first Monday in February,
and a justice Of the Supreme court to
succeed J. G. Kerwin, deceased. L. e.
GettIe, attorney of Madison and A. H.
Krugmeier of Appleton have beeen
prominently mentioned for the rail-
road commission and number of men
from all parts of the state have been
recommended for justice but in un-
official circles it is thought the APP
pointment will be made from Milwaul-
kee. Other terms that expired during
the first part of February are: Came
ron Fraser, Waukesha county, civil
service commissioner Clough Gates,
Superior, normal school regents Clara
T. Runge, Baraboo, normal school re-
gent at large; Frances G. Perkins,
Fond du Lac, and James. T. Trottman,
Milwaukee, university regents; James
e. Herman, Superior, grain and ware
house commissioner; John S. Owen,
Eau Claire, highway commissioner !:
James Neyin, Madison, conservation
commission. Under the rule of the
senate, appointments are not acted up
on until ten days after announced, so
that it is probable the governor will
make a number of selections to re-
place these officers.
