PROSPERITY HERE TO STAY.

Some Of the Democratic calamity
howlers are trying to make the pub
lie believe that the Republican admin
istration is confronted with g proba-
BILE deficit for the fiscal year to end
June 1908, but their arguments have
been spiked by the official announce
ment that the indications arc for a
healthy surplus. The only grounds for
the windjsmmers' stories are that
there was deficit Of a., 500, 900 for
July. They argue that there will be
a similar deficit every month, and
consequently one twelve times as
large at the end Of the fiscal year,
which has just begun. This is about
rs reasonable as the Democratic press
can be. July is always 8 had month,
and there is no reason to believe that
there will be q deficit any other. The
decrease in revenue due to the repeal
Of the war taxes will hardly amount
to s75, 900, 900 for the year, and many
believe that it will not amount to over
$50, 900, 900. The increase in the
output of tobacco, cigars and liquor is
counted on to make up part of this
and the customs business, which in
creased SO, 900, 900 the past July over
the same month last year, will make
up the balance and completely offset
the decrease in revenue from the re-
peal Of war taxes. The amount Of
gold now in the treasury breaks all
records with two exceptions. IL is
about s565, 900, 900, the worlds record
being s59s, 900, 600, which Russia had
three years ago. We now have more
gold than any other nation, and our
prosperity and progress are on the
constant increase.
The country Is going Republican
in the fall elections, rs usual, and no
amount of sophistry will avail to stop
the tide Of popular favor for the party
that has brought prosperity and kept
il here.

Only one public ohleial in the United
States handles more money than the
comptroller Of New York city, and
that official is the secretary OF the
treasury. says Leslie's Weekly. The
government Of Greater New York
costs more every year that the com
bined expenses Of the governments OF
half a dozen states. From the years
beginning TO the end the comptroller
Of the metropolis receives and dis
burses about $500. zoo. OOO-more than
half billion dollars. Half OF this Is
paid into the treasury through taxes
and other sources Of revenue, and
half is paid out in the running ex-
penses Of the city. a large part OF
which is expended in salaries and
wages OF city officers and employees,
for there are 10000 persons on the
city's pay roll-persons enough to
make a very good-sized city in them
selves.

The Rev. Edward Everett Hale. who
recently celebrated his eightieth birth
day. has a fund Of humor on which he
draws during his few moments OF ease.
A little while ago. while riding in .
railroad train to a point distant from
Boston. he was approached by the
train news agent. who laid several
books and magazines in the seat be-
side him. The old gentleman paid no
attention to them, and the agent, prob
ably assuming that he wanted some
thing better. presented to him one OF
his own works. DR.. Hale. assuming
4 gruffness he did not feel. said: Il
don't want IL; it's trash"
The news agent looked at him for Q
moment disgustedly and blurted out:

The Jefferson street improvement Is
one that would be greatly beautify
the city, and one that is greatly need
ed. At present there is only one street
open to the West OF Paducah, and
that is Broadway. Jefferson street is
the coming fashionable residence por-
tion Of the city, and the council
should have it opened and improved.
The regulation street improvements
might be ordered, and then, II the
property owners prefer, they can have
the improvement made on the large
and more desirable and costly plan
mentioned some time ago, which
while costing them more, would prove
more satisfactory to them, and more
creditable to the city, in the long
run. But IL the larger improvements
cannot be made, the street should be
extended nevertheless, regardless Of
the wishes of few property owners.

A new wrinkle in Sunday schools
has made its appearance in st. Louis.
One Sabbath organization has an
nounced tina. 1t will serve lemonade,
cake and pastries to the children dur

this will not induce the churches TO
annex free lunch counters as an in
ducement to the errant brothers who
like to spend their Sunday with an
electric fan and cold bottle.

The new board Of aldermen may be
entirely different from the old. What
Paducah needs is progressive men who
will push the city and without regard
for sentiment or the wishes of the
few. We want good laws of health
and sanitation. and laws that will
foster a growth of our institutions both
public and private, and induce others
to come and enjoy our prosperity and
progress by investing their money
here. Clinging to Anticipated ideas
never did make a city or help one to
grow.

The truth is that Cubans are too
lazy to help themselves. After this
government has spent thousands and
thousands of dollars on Havana, and
put the city in the best possible sani-
tary condition and purged it entirely
of yellow fever, the Cubans announce
that they cannot afford to spend the
necessary $1,000 a year to continue
the sanitation. They probably want

SILVER LINED CLOUDS.

Referring to weather condition, a To-

are often deceptive. Friday. all day,
and far into the night, dark clouds hung
about the city in all directions, yet there
was no storm the elements were not Sc
riously' disturbed. The day closed
calm and peaceful and when morn
ing broke, all darkness had vanished
like fast feeting fog, leaving only a
pleasant memory OF silver showers
which fell swiftly along our thorough
fares" This silver lining to the dark

in the breasts Of many of our people.
