ALL WANT INCREASE
CITY OFFICERS FIGURING ON Ex-
PENSES FOR 1909.
CONSIDERING ESTIMATES.
NEW CITY HALL WILL CUT BIG
HOLE IN MUNICIPAL CASH.

Special Appropriation Would Have
to Be Mnde for Building of Storm
Sewer Main in Perry Lane-Street
Paving Wants as Much to Its
Credit ms 1t Has This Year-COun-
ell VIII he Shown Necessity of
Increasing Size of Police Force.
Salary of building Inspector Must
BE Provided For.
Already the heads of the various city
departments are talking about their
estimates for next year. Work on
these estimates will begin next month
and the officers are figuring how much
money they will require in 1904.
But the heads of the departments will
not get what they ask for, no matter
what their figures show. Next year
a large amount of money will have to
be spent for special improvements.
The new City Hall will have to be
cared for, the salary of a building in
spector will have to be set aside.
money will have to be forthcoming for
the large first-class LaFrance engine
that has been purchased, but which
will not arrive until March, and Di-
rector of Public Works Gadsden's plan
to change the storm sewerage system
of the city will require special ap-
preparation.
Besides this a strong effort will be
made to have Council increase the po-
lice appropriation so that more men
can be put on the force. That more
uniformed men are badly needed has
been recognized for some time. and
there is every likelihood that the force
will be increased. With the present
force 1t is impossible to protect the en-
tire city. Several additional mounted
men are needed for duty in the South
Side. Under the new limits a great
deal more territory must be patroled.
The Streets and Lanes Department
will expect another large appropriation
for street paving, $4,000 being allowed
for the present year. An effort Will be
made to secure at least that much
again. This department would like to
get an appropriation of 600 Its ap-
propria ton for 1908 was $4,000. If it
is decided to put a sewer in Perry lane,
making it the main storm sewer of the
city, with an outlet in Bilbo canal, a
special appropriation will have to be
made. This is one of the most impor-
tant pieces of work that is being con-
sidered as a part OF next years sched-
ule.
Some of the departments have run
over their appropriations for this year
already and these, too, will want in
creased appropriations. The fire de-
partment will ask for more money and
If the salaries of the men are increased
there will have to be a substantial in
crease in the appropriation. The Park
and Tree Commission will want more
money than it was allowed for 1903 and
the city has already agreed to maintain
a tree nursery for its benefit.

United States Horses.

From John Glimer Speeds 1.-THE Horse
in America" in the September Century:
The United States is the greatest horse
producing country in the world. At this
time, therefore, when other agencies
are coming into competition with horses
for many purposes, and are being sub
stituted for horses in many others, it is
proper for us to consider what it is wise
to do in order that there shall not be too
serious losses in an industry az great as
it is widespread and interesting. A few
years ago the horses in United States
were valued at eleven hundred million
dollars. Business depression, together
with the competition and substitutions
referred to, deprecated this stock more
than one half. But there has been an
appreciation within few years, owing
to business revival and ensuing pros
perity, so that the value of the horses
in the country has risen more than two
| hundred million dollars to the end o
the last fiscal year, June, 1902, from
what the value was at the low-watel
| mark referred to.

Leon Always Treats Everybody
All RiQht.

The band went to Leon on Wednesday
morning of last week to play three
days engagement at the Summer Festi-
val at Leon and returned Friday night.
The boys report that the business men
and citizens of Leon treated them in the
finest manner possible showing them
every courtesy in their power and con-
sequently they all had the best kind OF a
time and hope at some future date to
be able to play a return engagement.
The band was much better one than
the people were expecting from Garden
Grove and the boys made themselves
quite reputation. The Corydon band
was there the last day, Friday, and
owing to the friendly feeling extended
between the two organizations they en-
joyed each others company immensely

Don't look for praise; the more praise

It's rare man who dares invite a

When mans wife makes strange
sounding statements before company, is
it his duty as Christian to deny them,
or as husband to keep still?
We have noticed that in shooting af-
fray, one doesn't have to read far to
come across the word "love.''
AS people get older, they find that if
they want quiet seat on the porch, they
must take it on the shady side in winter,

They tell on an Atchison man that he

barn his wife tells the neighbors that he
has gone to his club.
