Indications are that the special commit
tee of which Councilman Wallace Is chair
man will not submit, aa directed, a new
water rate ordinance at the meeting of the
city council. At the last meeting of the
city council the special committee was In
structed to prepare a new water rates
ordinance and present same at the meet
ing tonight. Mr. Wallace, however, has
failed to call a meeting of the committee
during the Interval and consequently It la
presumed the new ordinance has not been
prepared.
City Solicitor Kimball, when asked last
evening, said he had not been consulted
by Mr. Wallace or any member of the
special committee relative to drawing up
a new ordinance. "AH I have done," said
Mr. Kimball, ''was to draw up the ordi
nance which Councilman Younkerman pre
sented at the last meeting. The ordinance
was along the lines of the one passed by
the city In February of last year, there
being but a few minor changes. This ordi
nance I drew up at the Individual request
of Mr. Younkerman. The principal change
In this ordinance' Is the Increase of the
hydrant rentals from MS to 150. The ordi
nance doea not provide for any minimum
rate, aa Mr. Younkerman takes the posi
tion that If a person uaea only 10 centa
worth of water In a year hs should only
pay 10 cents."
Councilman Hendrlx, who la a member of
the special water committee, aald last night
that aa far aa he was aware Mr. "Wallace J
had not called a meeting of the committee
since the last session of the city council.
If a meeting of the committee had been
held It was without his knowledge or that

-PATENTS that PROTECT.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, May 6.-(8peclal.)-lowa
school men and women are starting a cam
paign for better wages for teachers and
more consolidation of the rural schools.
They assert this Is the only solution to the
scarcity of teachers and the problems of
the country echool. When the commission
on the recodification of the school laws
meets next year and when the legislature
cornea together again they may find a
healthy aentlment manufactured by tha
teachers of the state along those llnea. In
one county alone as a result of an In
vestigation by the superintendent ninety
seven teachers who were in the schools of
ths county one year ago had disappeared
In the next. This was In Crawford county
and County Superintendent Hoffman found
that of the ninety-seven teachers twenty
two had been married, thirteen failed to
pasa teachers' examinations, twenty-four
left the county for better positions and
better wages elsewhere, thirty went Into
other work then teaching and eight quit
because of their health and for other
reasons. Because of this condition, which
It Is claimed prevails in many of the coun
ties of the state, the teachers are proposing
to take the matter up systematically and
make an effort to educate the public to
the question of higher wages and better
conditions for school teachers, especially
those In the country. They find. too. thst
many schools have but a few pupils and
that It Is not economy to keep a school
open If It has lesa than ten. They will
therefore urge conaolldatlon of rural schools
as a further remedy for the scarcity of
teachers. School teachers In the rural dis
tricts are being paid but tX to H0 a month
for seven months' school and must pay
their own board, with board difficult to
get at any price, while farm laborers get
as much with their board thrown In.
Mast Shift Offices.
Considerable speculation Is being Indulged
In as to how the executive council will
shift around the state offices in the state
house. There la not enough room. There
are several grave problems en the handa
of the council. Thua far the council has
dona nothing toward the matter formally
and the employee about the building are
somewhat stirred up as to where they will
be landed. The legislature Is In the habit
of passing bills creating commissions and
departments and ordering the executive
council to give them space In the state
houee, where, as a matter of fact, there la
no apace and thlnga are already too much
crowded. It Is thought pretty likely that
the geological department will be moved
to the new hlstoricsl building to make room
for the new board of parole that comes In
July 1. The state veterinarian must be
provided an office. He wants two rooms
and may be given two rooma In the build
ing acroaa the atreet eaat of the atate house.
It Is a residence fiat that stands on land
bought some time ago by the at at a. The
dairy and food commissioner already oc
cupies half of It.
Some of the moet eertoua problema, how
ever. Include that of taking care of the
railroad commission. This commission has
two little rooms and for years ths only
desk room had by the three members Is
a long table with four shallow drawers In
It. little more than a kitchen table. Now
that the legislature has loaded ths com
mission with work and it will be busy for
the next two years up to Its neck. It Is
necessary to give It room for deaka of de
cent alae for the memhera and for hear
ings, the present rooms not belnf large
enough to accommodate more than a dozen
or ao persons at a hearing. On one aide
of the commission la the rooms of the ag
ricultural department and on the other the
clerk of ' the supreme court, neither of
which can well be moved. It may be neces
sary to movj things around and give the
commission a suite of rooms on the base
ment floor.
Furthermore the attorney genera! wants
anothe. room and In order to give it to
him It will be necessary to find other
rooms for the secretary of the executive
council. This could be done by moving
the horticultural department to other quar
ters, but that ancient and honorable so
ciety furnished the wood for the Interior
finishing of the rooms It has and had It
carved in the shspe of fruit of various
kinds and its members would consider It
sacrilege to move it. The room Is Just over
the aupply department of the executive
council and would for that reaaon be par
ticularly desirable for the secretary. It la
barely possible that the pharmacy com
mission and the labor commissioner may
be moved, but the rooms they occupy are
hardly suitable for the railroad commis
sion or for the secretary of the executive
council.
Farm Success la the Weat.
Remarkable re porta have been made of
farm operations in thst part of the country
known as the semi-arid region and those
who have felt that possibly there waa a
change In the climate which had brought
about thla reault are beglnrilng to inquire
aa to the real reaaon. Vast regions that
were formerly regarded ss valuable only
for graslng purposes have become covered
with farm homes surrounded by healthy
young groves. ' During the winter there
was held at Denver a great dry-farming
congress where the transformation was dis
cussed and in part explained. It appears
that it Is the result of deliberate planning
on the part of men, that the good done
bias been largely because of the adoption
of the very best modern methods of farm
ing, such a a, for lnatance. the Campbell
ayatem of soil culture. Men who have
made a success of farming In this region
of scant rainfall have used Intelligence
snd they have not hesitated to try out
new things. Under the Campbell system
there Is planning not' during the growing
season, but during every week and every
month of the year for conserving the mois
ture so that not n particle -of that which
falls Is wasted. That this la entirely pos
sible Is shown by what has been iiccom
pliahed in a score of different atatea and
by hundreds of best farmers. For Instance,
PrOf. Campbell secured at Holdrege, Neb.,
In an unfavorable year and when thoua
anda of acres of grain In western Nebraska
proved a failure, 61H bushels of wheat,
testing 64 pounds, on summer tilled land.
Wife Burled at Sea.
NEW YORK, May 6. On board the
Cunard steamer I'mbrla. which arrived
today from Liverpool, waa Dr. Chalmers
Prentice of ChloHgo, who had hoped to
find here the body of his wife who died
at sea while a passenger on the North
German Lloyd steamer Koenlgln Louise
last week. When his daughter Camilla,
who met him at the pier, told him that
the body had been buried at sea. Dr.
Prentice was overcome. Mlaa Prentice pro
tested against a sea burial, but Captain
Morgenstern declared such a course waa
Imperative.
Rollins; Pin In Action.
Mrs. Culver, wife of C. U Culver, sheriff,
of Fayette county, Iowa, suppressed a
jail riot with a rolling pin.
Sheriff Culver was out of of town, when
Mrs. Culver, hearing a scuffling sound,
st'lxcd a rolling pin as the first weapon
handy and rushed from the living apart
ments Into the Jail.
With rare presence of mind she closed
the door to prevent an escape. Finding
half a doxen men In a fierce fight, she
' knocked down the first one within reach
and then, seising the ringleader by tha
collar, marched him to a separate cell and
locked him up.
The Board of Supervisors will pasa res
