Home AGAIN
Cleveland Pyle and Joe Blose Spend
Week at the Fair.

Cleveland Pyle, of Whitewater. in
company with Joe Blose, of the same
place. returned this morning from
st. Louis, where they had spent a
week visiting the Fair. Mr. Pyle says
the fair is simply grand and a per-
son could spend a month there and
then not have seen all.
He says the storm Of Friday was
very severe. He was on the Fair
grounds at the time and the storm
did not visit that part of the city.
Gut the storm of the following even
ing did visit the Fair and caused
considerable damage. Several fine
pieces of statuary were blown over
>and destroyed

BAKERS Meet
NOT TO LOAF
BUT TO TALK ABOUT THE SIZE
OF THE PRESENT LOAF
FLOUR $3.50 A BARREL
They Say There is No Profit in Pres
ent Prices and Size of Bread
To Meet Again.

The local bakers of the city held a
meeting at the Westcott last night
the object of which was to consult
with each other and if possible devise
some plan whereby their interests
could be protected against the high
price of -four prevailing 1t is
quoted today at $3.50 per barrel.
The meeting was well attended, and
considerable interest was manifest
ed
1t was stated at the meeting that
the different bakeries all over the
country were raising the price of
bread and at the same time reducing
the size of the loaf. It was the con-
sensus Of opinion of those present
that to continue the manufacture the
size loaf they are now making, and
at the same price would mean heavy
loss, and that it looked to them as
if something ought to be done.
1t was the sense Of the meeting that
1t was folly for Richmond bakers to
hold back any longer, and the thing
to do would be to change the price of
bread, and that as soon as possible.
Along this line there was nothing
definitely done. In this forward
movement, the bakers have been
waiting one on the other to act, but
as it was stated, this city is slow to
act in everything. Of this kind, it mas
thought advisable to 90 slow in this
particular.
One of the bakers, in speaking of
the affair, said to the Palladium:
"We have been very liberal in our
wholesale methods. We have been
giving boarding houses, lunch coun.
ters and saloons, the benefit of whole
sale prices, just the same as persons
who sell bread. 1t is our object to
60 after the wholesalers first and
raise the price on them. Then if that
is not sufficient to keep us from losing
money, we will have to give our Gus
toners sixteen-ounce loaf. We
have been giving seventeen, and find
that other cities have reduced to six
teen. The difference in the size of
the loaf would scarcely be percep-
tible.
However, nothing has been done
definitely and nothing will be done
until another meeting is heidi

G., H. & d. SYSTEM GIVES UP
IDEA OF BUILDING ROAD
TO LOUISVILLE, KY.
It Was Planned by the c., G. & L.
and Would Reduce the Distance
to Cincinnati.

President Eugene Zimmerman, c..
III. & D. system, yesterday said the
line which the Cincinnati, Chicago &
Louisville had proposed building to
Louisville had been abandoned.
Asked in what manner the c., III.
& d. system would get into Louis
vile, Mr.. Zimmerman said the present
traffic arrangements with the Louis
vile & Nashville would be continued
The route which the c., C. & L. sur
veyed to Louisville was one of the
most important lines in the original
scheme of that company. The bee line
to Chicago is practically completed.
The next in order was a direct line
to Louisville, through the extreme
southern tier of counties in Indiana.
This proposed line would have reduc-
ed the distance to los miles.
The survey provided for line
from Miami, about fifteen miles
northwest of Cincinnati, Southwestern
~ through Valley Junction and Law
renceburg and Aurora.
Continuing southwesterly the sur
vey passed through Dearborn and
Switzerland counties to Madison.
thence in straight line to Jeffer-
sonville and the bridge across the
Ohio to Louisville.
The abandonment of this project
will come as a surprise to al trans
portation circles. 1t is supposed that
the C., Ell. & D. system looked upon
this line as superfuous, owning as it
does a half interest in another north
and south line, the Queen & Crescent.

THE RICHMOND LIGHT, HEAT
& POWER co.
GIVES UP CITY LIGHTING
What a Business Man Says About
City Plant and It's Man
agement.

On September /, the city will be-
gin using its own light, the contract
with the Richmond Light, Heat &
Power Co, expiring on that date Ev-
erything is now in readiness for the
change, and ere long the citizens will
have an opportunity to see the out
come.
The Palladium had an interview
with Main street business man in
regard to Municipal lighting. He is a
man who knows something about the
business, too. He said: "There
is no good reason why the municipal
plant shouldn't pay if properly man
aged. I don't believe there ought 10
be any sticks or drones connected with
the institution. It will take live. en-
ergetic, hustling men to make it sue
cess. There is need Of men who will
make a thorough canvass of the city
and interest the people in electric
lighting. 1t is a good light and a
cheap light and if the citizens will
support the plant it will be a success.
All that is needed in the office is
competent book-keeper. The other
persons connected with the plant
should be seekers after business. Tt is
business that is needed, not bosses.
Charley Rodgers is a good man. and
is thoroughly competent. He is also
a hustler''
There is no difficulty in seeing that
the gentleman is right. If the plant is
the success that it ought to be it will
require hustling. And that is what is
required in every business to make it
successful.

Memorial day with its solemn yet

spite of it's GREATNESS rush into the

in it's past. 1t is they who most fully
realize the advantage and blessing of
life to a self-governed people and who
are doing the most to raise the STAN
dard of good citizenship for their
country who best appreciate the SER
vice rendered long ago by their dead

freedom of humanity and the preser-

they were disputed and established at
