Newspaper n Prosperity

There is no other business which
has improved 30 much during the
past ten years ar the newspaper busi-
ness. II used 10 be that local news
paper never made any money, and if
. local merchant advertised in il. he
simply did it 80 help the paper" az
be claimed. All this has changed.
Every intelligent farmer, and town
man az well, now takes hi. local pa-
per and he reads il from start to
finish. The merchants have found
this 10 be fact, and for this reason
they know it pays to advertise. Of
course there are some old f0gies still
doing business, but the people have
learned that the merchant who sticks
TO the old fogy idea Of advertising,
sticks 10 oldtime high prices for his
goods also, and they are beginning to
pass him by.-MOunt Pleasant Times

KEMPER NOT ARRESTED.

John Kemper, who shot and
fatally wounded William Devices,
near Cerrsville last week, has not
been arrested, although a warrant
is out for him. 1t is reported that
he is at his home in Livingston
county, and has no intention of
evading the authorities. 1t seems
to be the general opinion of the
people of the community In which
the unfortu nate affair took place,
that Kemper was justi6a0le in
killing Devices. 1t is alleged that
for years Dewees has caused trou-
BILE between Kemper aud wife.
Devices was taken to Elizabeth
town, ILL.,, for medical attention
and died thers as stated in the
Press last week. He leaves a wife
and several children. He was an
en- gineer by trade.

THE time was whsn the merch-

WATER WORKS.
Large Petition Presented to tho
City Council.

Tuesday night at the regular
meeting of the city council a petit
ton signed by l44 citizens of Ma.
rion was placed before the body
for consideration. The petition
urging the council to in s m 9
measure provide for the furnishing
OF a water supply to the residents
of the CITY.
The proposition was then freely
discussed by the mayor and men,
bers of the council. and the coun-
Gil decided to hold the matter over
until the next meeting before pass.
ing upon the proposition, and in
the meantime the people will be
approached for the purpose of ae-
certaining whether a waterworks
system owned by a private copor.
alton or a system owned by the
city will be preferable.
The council has the power to
grant a franchise for any number
of years but cannot contract for a
system of waterworks for the city
for any length of time without
putting the proposition before the
people for their endorsement OF
rejection. Some favor the city
issuing bonds and putting in water
works while other prefer that a
franchise be given to a private
corporation.
1t is estimated that the cost of a
system of waterworks will be some
thing near $4,000. Eighteen by.
drants or plugs for the city and
two public watering troughs will
cost the city about $1,000 ann ually.
The citizenship is almost unan-
imously in favor of a system of
water works, and reasonable pro
position will meet a hearty en-
dorsement.
