A Fine Showing.

In another column will be noted the
report OF Town Council, which shows a
tremendous improvement in the tnan-
cial receipGs of this town. True, this
council has had money to work with,
but without any disparagement OF for
mer councils, we do not hesitate to say
that the present council has done more
than any other we have had.
The town has been thoroughly po-
Iced, the streets kept in excellent con-
5ition and with the large expenditure
of money we have not heard the slight
est hint of bad or favorite management.
When a town is so fortunate as to have
the management of its affairs IN the
hands of totally disinterested men, such
as this town has, the people should
use every effort to continue such man
agement. =.
We believe the town has reached that
stage where the-maSor should receive
a salary ne has to do the principal
part of the supervising of the work and
watch the finances.
It is well to have a council that is not
after working the town for Individual
benefit, such as the devising OF means
to gobble the income. For instance, II
Manning should be so unfortunate as to
have council Influenced by those on
the make, it would would not be long
before the town would be covered with
debt for improvements, and our taxes
would necessarily be raised to meet this
burden. There are number OF ways
that a conncil could run a town IN
debt; for instance, opening up streets
through lands that would have to be
paid for at stiff price, even if that
Street adds treble the value to the lots
which it goes through. Then 1t can
give out a franchise for lighting, and
when once given, tho concern holding
the franchise has monopoly and can
charge whatever it may choose; the
same with other franchises, once OBJ
tanned, it precludes competition: We
could go OF ard enumerate number OF
ways how she treasury might be legltl-
mately looted. The present council has
done well, and they deserve the thanks
of this entire community. The money
spent upou our educational Institution
was a wise expenditure and one that
will result in q magnificent harvest.
When we go to select officers for the
next term let US keep in mind that il
we can induce men to take these posi-
tions who have not, or are not likely to
have, any axes to grind o. favorites to
aid, they are the kind who will give US
GOOD service and run the town hand
somely without going in debt or in
creasing the tax. If there is a street te
open they will consider the benefit to
taxpayers and not the individual owner;
if a proposition for Improvements, they
will take the towns ability and need
into consideration, and not the benefit
which might result to individuals.

We hope the Railroad Commission

along the Central railroad that have
asked for a double daily passenger SER

while ago and nothing has been heard
of it. This service is sadly needed and
if our business men want it and will act
like business men should, we believe
the commission will give them the con-
sideration that conditions here war

a meeting, adopt resolutions setting
forth the conditions and then send some
competent person to properly represent
them before the authorities.

Since the secret has leaked out that
uo]d and diamonds were discovered on
property on the upper end of church
street, property has advanced in price
in that section, and the effect is spread
ing all over town to such an extent that
none but the rich and well-to-do will be
able to buy plot of ground to put up a
shack. 1t has checking influence to
the growth of any town when million
aires pit themselves against each other
for the purchase of a piece OF ground.
One has discovered gold, the other
diamonds, and each does not believe the
other knows it.

formed trust and have run up the
price over l25 per cent. If the people
encourage this sort of robbery by buying
ice, they deserve to be mulct by them
Ice is luxury, and not necessity ex'
cept in cases of illness, and if the peo-
pie will forego indulging in this luxury
for few weeks the ice men will be
