POOLING THE FARMERS.

Judge Parker is still trying to win
farmer votes by telling them of the bur
den they are hearing because of the duty
OF 1874 upon steel rails, which he de-
clares they are paying themselves to the
United States Steel corporation. But
Mr. Parker should go further and should
tell the farmers what they already
know, that since a duty was imposed
upon steel rails making that industry
possible in the United States, the price
OF those rails has decreased from $50 to
S2s per ton. lie should tell them that
since we began the manufacture of steel
rails in commercial quantities, the charge
for transporting a bushel of wheat by
railroad from Chicago 10 New York has
been reduced from 42c bushel b. about
&c, at the present time. From 1870 to
1850 the charge for transporting barrel
Of flour from Chicago to New York by
rail fell from 81 60 to SIC. and in 1908

PADUCAH PROSPERITY.

Prosperity under republican national
rule is evident right here in Paducah
every day. The merchants know it, and
81 do hosts of others.
As an evidence of this prosperity may
b, taken the report for the city treas
my for the month just closed.
In October, 1908. there was collcctci
on property in Paducah STELLA.
In Octobcs. this year, ON property
there was collected Si.l7S0s.
The same proportion is true Of tbs
total collections for the month in Pa
ducah.
Last October, a year ago. the tota
city collections amounted to S2.5l7.2l.
Last October the total city collections
amounted to S5.s27.s3.
This is an increase in October thi'
year Of S2,756.Gl on property tax col
lcctions. and of s3,3l0G2 on total col
lections. over October last year.
This not only shows that the peopl'
are prosperous and are able TO pa,

nature of a compromise. Many of the property owners were present and they discussed the matter at length Eli P. Smith presented petition represent ing 5216 feet out of an approximate 10000 feet of property abutting along the ave- nue to be improved. This petition oppos- ed paving the avenue just at this time with any kind of material.
 Those favoring immediate Improvements were in the majority however. The reso- lution providing for the draft of an or dinance to be presented at tonights meeting was offered by Alderman Heidt and it was adopted without opposition.
 Alderman Moore was in favor of paving the avenue as far east as Orange street This met with opposition, inasmuch as a majority of the property owners favored paving the entire avenue. Walker Percy, Alex T. London, E. w. Barrett, Eugene L. Brown and others spoke favoring the Improvements.
 The question promises to be a live is- sue at tonight's meeting.
 The mayor and members of the street committee request that all residents of Highland avenue be present at the board of aldermen meeting tonight to express themselves on the subject of paving the avenue and as to what character of pave- ment they desire.
