The ability of the politician to work distressing and serious public condi- tlons to his own advantage is clearly shown by the number of expensive in- vestigations which haye been made into the high cost of living in this country by different legislative bodies. And while prices have been going up the people have been taxed a million to study the situation without having relurned to them a repart worth 30 cents. The patriots of Massachuetts got $20,000 out of the state treasury two years ago for the purpose of inquiring as to the cost of high prices and did report but found no sign of relief. There is before the Massachusetts leg. islature now a bill proposing that a committee of eleven visit Great Brit- ain and Germany and study the work- men's compensation acts in those countries. An appropriation of $35,000 fs asked for fo pay the expenses of |the trip. This is an allowance of | more than $3,000 for each member. | In commenting upon this scheme to | bleed the people, the Worcester Ga- zette says H “We hope the legislature will not be hard hearted toward these good | | petitioners, We never like to see a lot of patriots turned down. Inci- dentally, we will remark, however, that a committee of the National Man- turers’ assoclation has already made such an investigation, and the results have been made known. There | is no need for anybody to cross the | ocean to learn all that need be known — “This is the saddest and bitterest {day of my life,” said Ganderson, con- templating his son with reproachful eves. “My cup of sorrow is full to overflowing because of reports of your conduct which have reached me. Little did T dream,” continued he, “that 1 should live to see the day when the proud name of Ganderson would e trampled Into the dust by a son of mine, I have here a writien report from the president of the college sa ing you were the ringleader of the gang which put the Latin professor in a barrel and rolled him downhill, caus- ing him intense mental and physical anguish. 1 can't tell you how shocked 1 was when I read this communication. 1 attended the same college When I was young and its reputation is very dear to me. The thought that my son has disgraced himself in its ancient halls is more than I can bear.” “Well, cheer plied young man, optimistically, “I don't be- ileve the college boys are any Wworse | now than they were in vour day. Didn’t you have any trouble when you were a student?” “Trouble? Trouble? No, sir! I walked circumspectly, mindful of my own fair renown as well as that of the college. I tried to be an example to | the younger students, and I may mod- estly say that I succeeded.” "I glad to hear it, dad. 1 was looking over some of the old records a while ago and came across an interest- about the practical working of the workmen's compensation acts. How- | ever, we hope that no one will con- | clude that we are saying aught against the time honored practice of junketing. Legislators raised their salaries last | Enjoying greater wealth, natur- | ally they are prompted to travel and spend it and the prompting is greater for the reason that the state will be expected to pay the freight.” CREATING A CITY BEAUTIFUL. The claim of Chicago to distinction as the most progressive and far-sight- ed in drainage construction is challenged by New Orleans, notwith- | standing the $65,000,000 sanitary canal, | which reversed the flow of a river and sent it down the Mississippi in- stead of into the Great lakes. New Orleans will give the world a practi- cal demonstration of the value of re- imed swamp lands by draining | 50,000 acres and utilizing those acres “City Beautlful” and uild up educational and charitable in- tutlons. These 50,000 acres are in New ( ans delta of the Missis- sippl river, valued at $1.50 per acre, eight 25 cents. Ten or it ago such land could mnot | ven away except by trickery. | Drained and reclaimed from the swamp'| and overflow they will have a value of $100 to $200 an acre. Before New all reach the 2,000,000 popu- lation mark they will be worth from | $750 to $2,500 an acre, according to John A, Kruse, a consulting engineer of Chicago, who has given the sub- ject of reclaimed swamp lands in the Mississippi valley considerable study. The 50,000 acres were given to New Orleans by Bdward Wisner, a Michi- | gan man, who went to New Orleans | twenty vears ago and demonstrated | the value of reclaimed swamp lands. | Mr. Kruse was in New Orleans when | the gift was offered, with Edmund T. Perking, acting president of the Na- tional Drainage congress; George H. Maxwell, director of the Pittsburgh flood commission, and others, to at- tend a meeting in connection with the ession of the Drainage congress April 10-13, ‘The city pose the land for 100 said Mr. Kruse, “but can use ues derived from it.

New Haven, Jan. 30.—The gathering of democrats here this afternoon to | organize a state democratic club and to select Bridgeport and May 1 and 2 o8 the place and time for the spring | convention, was said by many of them to be one of the most enthusiastic in | years, state central committee Senator M hen of New London said that in every | town where a_few democrats could | be gotten together a local club should be formed, those present stood up and cheered, and when a minute later he maved that the committee declare a 1db organized there was more cheer- ing.

In the committee Hartford withdrew its claim for the convention. ‘The committee adopted a resolution praising Governor Baldwin's adminis- tration and going on record as favor- ing the presentation of his name to candidate for the presidency.
