Good News for W. c. T. u.

The 6 uestion of limiting production
of whisky is absorbing the attention
of Kentucky distillers. The custom
IS now the most important be fore the
Kentucky distillers. Last years crop
of over 30, GOO, 600 gallons is now ad-
United to have been larger than the
needs Of the try demanded.
We're it not for the immense amount
of rectihed goods which is being turn
ed out it is possible that all of this
whisky could be consumed. But with
conditions as they are distillers realize
that they made more whisky last
year than they can sell for some time
to come.

Skating al the Old Pier.

There was good skating on the ri yer
at this point last week, somethi ny
that has not been known for nine or
ten years. While the ice was not
very safe it was strong enough near
the shore to hold up the skaters. The
river in front Of the city was clear of
ice last week, but 1t was blockaded
opposite the old pier just below here,
where the skating was good.

WORK DONE BY
OLD COUNCIL.
Good Work on StreetS...C annery
Site BOught.-.AgainSt
Liquor Traffic.
WAS HANDICAPPED AT TIMES,

The old city council, that had its
last meeting Monday night, did some
good work for the city during the two
years 1t was in office and attempted
to do more. While no great things
we're done in the way of public I'M
pro vements, several things of benefit
to the city were accomplished and the
finances were kept in good condition
in 1902, as shown by the city treasur--
er's report for the year ending Decem
Der. 1902. During the past year more
money has been expended by the
council for public inpro vements than
,sduring 1902 and the members of the
body nave taken a more active inter
est In laboring for the good of the
town. The balance that will be left
in the city treasury, however, after
the business done in 1903, will not be
known until next month, when the
city treasurer Will make his annual
report.
At times the council has shown a
willingness to do more than 1t has
done but has clearly been handicapped
by lack of funds. A number of in
roads have been made On these funds
TO meet unforeseen exigencies; and, If
they had not arisen, the money
would have been available for munich
pal Improvements. One of these was
the prevalence of smallpox in this
city last January, which n ecessitated
the expenditure of quite a sum to take
care of the patients and keep in force
a strict quarantine.
When the old council went into
office on January 8, 1902, there was a
balance in the treasury of $1063, 49,
In 1902 there were the following ex-
penditnres: interest on bonds $500,
salaries $1121. so, for general purposes
$799. Al. At the close of the year there
was balance on hand of 1869 So.
One of the largest expenditures in
6oth years for general purposes was
made on street improvements. Besides
putting in sewers ,culverts and step
ping stones where needed some excell-
emit grading was done on the streets.
The extensive improvements on the
roads leading over the Baptist church
and Satterteld hills have been of
great benefit, besides the fills in front
of Julian Browns property and FL. l..
Stader's livery stable.
One commendable ordinance framed
and adopted was that prohibiting, un-
der penalty, tine sale of cider or other
beverages within the city limits.
On May 4, 1908. 800 was appro-
priated for the purchase of a site for
a branch cannery for the Polk Pack
ing company and the concern was ex-
emptied from taxation for five years.
This act on the part of the council
was commended by some of the citi-
zens but did not meet with the favor
3f others.
s In June Pate 81 Oelze were granted
PERMISSION to lay water pip through
he principal streets.
