Very often we hear complaints
about how public officials conduct our
business. AS matter of fact, many
times the people themselves are to
blame.
In this connection, it is interesting
to hear some of the comments made
in connection with the proposed can
didates for Office. Here in Emmons
county we have large array Of those
who would be pleased to serve the
public as county officials. There are
all kinds of them with all sorts Of
qualifications. Everything from boot
leggers to all-around dead-beats are
tc be found in their ranks as well az
some clean-cut, qualified, honest can
didates. But it isn't always the lat
ter class who receive the most SUP
ped. We ere told that one fellow,
who is utterly and absolutely unfit
to conduct any Office or business, should
be supported as ne will probably Re
on the county anyway. We are told
that another fellow should be sup
ported because he is old and worn
out and incapable Of running any
business of his own.
It will be interesting to see just
what class Of men receive the popu.
lar support this year. There is q
large list Of entries, including cripples
galore. Of course, being cripple Q,
q business failure isn't necessarily 9
qualification, but it seems to be quite
a political campaign asset in some
quarters.

bridge work at prices ranging from
one-third to one-haK less than last,
year. They show that road con-,
struction can be done for about half
Of last years prices. Early this
year the Record estimated that last
years contracts were ut least ten,
thousand dollars above a reasonable
figure. There was no way to make
any exact estimate, Of course, and
Commissioner DuHeaume published
an article admitting that last years
prices were too high-but not ten,
thousand dollars too high. We be-
lieve that the results Of the recent
lettings show that our estimate Of
ten thousand dollars was fair and
conservative 1t is common knowl-
edge that the big break in labor
prices and feed for work horses, etc.,
came between 1920 and 1921. The
difference between 1921 and 1922 will
be very little. Nevertheless, bidders
were able to split their figures Of
last year almost in two in some cases.
Isn't it then fair to assume that the
prices paid last year were too high?
Isn't it fair to assume that this years
bids show that little less haste and
10 little more care have meant a, vast
saving to the taxpayers! Isn't it
even fair to assume that the public
ity given these matters has had some
thing to do with making these con-
tractors get down to business?
Mr.. Fogle wanted that work this
year, and he showed his bid down as
low as possible for fear he wouldn't
get It. And in doing 50, he demon
strated that the work could be done
very much cheaper than it was done
last year. 81

The Record has no quarrel with the

and saved Chester, but Lee sank before
he could reach him. City Marshal M. r

teers, searched for the body diligently
and it was located Tuesday afternoon by
Herbert Stevens of East Belfast near
