Mr.. c. NJ. Latham has purchased a

Owing to the want of rain the
grass in the cemetery 10 growing very
slowly and transplanted flowers re-
quire the closest attention to keep
them from dying. 1t is highly prob
able that the Council will, at an ear
ly day, either bore well in the GEM
etery and put up wind. mil or get a
water supply from one of the springs
along the river. Doubtless hand
some fountain will also soon be erect
ed. No improy could be made
which would add more to the gener-
al appearance of the cemetery and at
the same time supply along-felt want.
We would suggest the Confederate
Monument lot would be ths best
place for the location Of the foun-
tain.
The cemetery ticket system, which
i, in vogue in most cities, is or, wing
IN favor with our c.tizens-esps-
cially the lot owners-and is proDa-
bly, the best plan that Could be adopt
ed for the complete breaking up of
the vandalism which prevails during
about nine months OF the year. Ma
ny ladies have planted expensive
flowers over the graves of loved ones
and gone there the next day TO find
the flower ghoul had been there be-
fore them and uprooted the flowers
and transplanted them elsewhere.
Their feelings can be better imag-
ined than described, but, on behalf of
the ladies, not to mention the dead,
we say this thing should be stopped
in some way.
The cemetery may be fit tryst-
ing-place for lovers; is place Of in
terest to visitors; is a source of con-
siderable expense to the city, but
should not be rendezvous for wo-
men of doubtful virtue to meet men
no better than themselves. In the
name of deceocy, let the Council
bring about a reformation.

Judge Grace has decided that the
election in IIopkinsville, whereby two
railroad propositions were voted on
the same day, was illegal, and has
granted an injunction restraining the
issuance of the bonds to the Ohio
Valley Company. The difference be-
tween the election at Hopkinsville
aud the recent one here, where two
railroad propositions were carried at
the same election, was that in tie
former case both prop positions were
voted as a unit, while in the latter
voters were given the option of vot-
ing for or against either or both
The question was sprung before the
election and an exhaustive examina-
ton of the subject by some Of the
best legal talent of the state showed
nothing wrong in such an election.
There need be no perturbation on
this account. The z. & L. at least
will be built and when completed
will get her bonds-Paducah Stan

tions were not voted upon as a unit,

All election for the other, as provided
in its charter, and fixed the time
for the same day already fixed for
tie first. The two propositions were
separate and distinct and were so
voted upon as in your case. The ma
jority for the Cairo & Tennessee
River road was 34S and for the Ohio
Valley 800. 1t has since developed
that the q. &c 4. r, which was adj
vertised only "a days, required 80
instead of 20as was supposed and
the submission was therefore illegal,
and only one proposition was voted
upon in accordance with legal re-
quirements. This is one of the point.
