trasting the situation with that Of

The only comment we hear Is
reference to some one who has
gone broke on the deal and the
hope expressed that our good pco-
pie that are In II will draw out be-
fore they are squeezed too hard.
SPECIAL LICENSE TAX.
A good chance to help out the
city treasury and be just to our
business men is now open to our
City Fathers. The Special Lii
ccnse Tax should gather the two
Boards Of Trade under its pro-
tccting wings. OF course the
matter will be taken up.
FOUR YEARS ENoUoH.
The talk on the street IL that
four years Is enough for any one
man to fattcn at the public crib.
BY adopting this rule race OF
professional Office seekers will be
cxterminatcd and politics will be
much purcr than It IL.
There are many good men In the
county who are Just as competent
to I'LL the Offices ms any who have
filled them and the pie should be
passed around.
BUSINESS INTERESTS.
The business interests OF a town
advance only by being In close
touch with each other. A well
drilled army can outstrip much
larger, unframed foe. The moral
Is plain. An organization must he

water mains would indeed he IA
clever plan to originate with our
City Fathers. OF course the qucs-
ton of expense Is an important
one and the possible benefits In
case OF fire still more important.
The general opinion Is that this
question will be given attention In
In due time.
GOOD ROADS.
The question of good roads Is

THE GOOD OF ALL.
Montgomery City ranks high

We have splendid churches, excel

we lack industries to employ the

Who can hit upon n plan to get n

will spring up Of their own accord.
We have good shipping facilities,

He is not entirely out of politics, as
