A BAD PLAN.

The Board Of Public Works has al
ready given evidence of its enterprise
and sound judgment-in some ways.
1t has ordered the street roller in use
again, and will ask the city to pass q
stock law preventing stock from run
ming at large. In regard to the uni
form material for street and sidewalk
improvements, however, few people
will agree with the worthy members
of the Board. The idea is all right so
far as 1t applies to people and property
in the business or fashionable resi-
dence portions of the city, where the
property owners are able to pay the
cost. but when it comes to the out
skirts. or to those portions of town &C.
cupied by the people whose property
is worth comparatively little, the uni
formity rule requiring them to build
costly streets and sidewalks would.not
apply. Down town, and on streets
on which finer residences abound, the
city should require the best
improvements, brick or asphalt streets
and concrete curbing and sidewalks.
This is the proper kind of material
for these Kind of localities, but it is
not for Others, and the Board of Pub
lie works should not attempt to make
it so. The cost would prohibit many
localities from ever getting these kind
of improvements, which is something
not contemplated b, the men who
made our laws, and expect every citi-
zen to get what bsnefit he is entitled
to. Another thing that should have
some effect in finally settling the mat
ter rs the fact that other cities do not
attempt such foolish, impractical
and unjust plan as uniformity of i'm
provements for localities where the
property is so diverse in character and
value. In any city may be found any
kind of improvement from dirt roads,
no curling, and plank walks, to the
finest granite thoroughfares and Stone
pavements. In all other Kentucky cit
les the custom of adapting the i'm.
provements to the locality prevails,
and there is no reason it cannot and
should not prevail in Paducah. We
want the best improvements possible
for every locality, but no more. If
people in many parts of the city
where improvements are needed had
to put in the best class of work, there
would never be any improvements
there, which would be a calamity to
the city as well as to the people. The
boards should refuse to pass an ordi-

DEMOCRATIC DIsCORD.

The only question now is how bad
~ the Republicans will beat the DEM
ocrats at the Presidential election in
November. Ii seems to be evident 10
even the most partisan Democrats that
their party is doomed to one of its
worst defeats. 1t is now only a q ues-
ton of figures-of how much the Dem.
oorats will be beaten.
II is even now conceded by many
Democratic papers that Cleveland
public Endorsement of Judge Parker
is a firebrand, and destroys Parker's
chances il he ever had any, of unit
ing the party. A bolt of the Bryan
and Hearst crowds, should the sound
money or conservative element of the
party be victorious at st. Louis, is
one of the things now predicted.
The last issue of Bryans Common
err, which went to press before Cleve-
lands Parker statement was publish
ed, classes as impossible candidates
Parker, Cleveland, Hill, Olney and
German. He rs opposed to Judge Par
ksr principally because PARKER is in
dorsed by David B. Hill. Had Bryan
known at the time that Cleveland was
also for him, there is no telling to
what extent he would have carried
his rabid denunciation of the new
York Judge, whose administration he
declares, would be worse than the
second term of Cleveland.
All this simply shows the attitude
of the Bryan faction, which is prac.
ticslly pledged to oppose any and all
candidates except Hearst, and virtu-
ally leaves the fight in the next Demo
cratic convention battle royal be-
tween the ere organizers and the
Populistic factions-the free silver and
sound money elements.
1t remains clear that the breach
widens. Bryan and Hearst cannot
support the Cleveland Parker men,
and the latter cannot support the Bry
an and Hearst crowd. About the only
sensible thing left for the Democrats
to do is to make President Roose
velt's election unanimous.

The effort of the administration in
Paducah to protect some of its men,
bers is too apparent to deceive any
one. Mayor Yeiser has had several
weeks in which to find out what is
the matter with the city scales. he
was granted further time last night.
This sort of business is disgusting to
the intelligent citizen. He should
either have reported that there was
no foundation for the allegations, OF
else preferred charges as he is required
by law and expected TO do. The ex-
cuse that the city scales were out of
order will not suffice. The difference
between the present service and the
service before the newly elected
weigher took charge is too marked
to be attributable only to dersnge-
ment of the mechanism of the scales,
according to the patrons Of the
scales. IL begins to loos as if nothing
has been done In the scale affair be-
cause the administration doesn't in
tend to do anything. About the only
requirement of a public official in Pa
ducah nowadays is that he be able to
draw his salary.

The Wool Trade.

The American Wool and Cot
ton Reporter, of Boston, says
under date of June 3:
With some houses in the trade
there has been slightly better
inquiry for wool the past week,
but as q general thing trade has
continued very quiet. The buy
ing of the new woods in the IN
terror is more general than it was
at this time last year, and it has
been some years since there has
been such a rapid cleanup of the
new woods as we have seen thus
far. With such n scramble for
the new woods as we have had
this year, and with indications of
n further hardening tendency at
the next London sales, prices on
the few old woods which remain
in this market are naturally firm.
The receipts of wool in Boston
this week amount to lS,O23 bales,
against 1S,GI4 bales last week,
and II, 100 bales last year.
The total receipts since January
have been 209,O40 domestic and
1874 foreign woods, against
16G, 06B bales domestic and Ill.,
5O4 bales foreign for the cores
ponding time last year. This
is an increase of 32,0S3 bales of
domestic and a decrease of us
bales foreign.
The shipments for the week
ending May 30, are as follows:
Tuesday, May "a, sos, 400 pounds;
Wednesday, May %, 494, 58O
pounds; Thursday, May 26. 907,-
430 pounds; Friday, May q, 203,-
$40 pounds; Saturday, May %,
$4,000 pounds; total 1923, go
pounds.
This shows a decrease of S70,-
953 pounds from the previous
week. Since January | the total
shipments have amounted to &c.
618,040 pounds, against "a, 55O,-
12S for the corresponding time
last year.
The sales of the week amounted
to 2,227 900 pounds domestic and
$50, 900 pounds foreign, making u
total of 2,577, 900 pounds, against
total of 2,SlS,0 900 for the pre-
vious week and total of 3,S3S,-
600 for the corresponding week
last year. The sales since Janu-
airy / amounted to 1920, 900
pounds, against 7S, 100000 for
the corresponding time last year.

Market Letter.


Kansas City, Mo-, June ,, 1904.
Quarantine receipts this week
amount to 1 900 head, more than
four times the number received
same days last week. The mar
ket was 10 cents higher Monday
or % to 30 cents higher than 10
days ago. Receipts in native
division have been comparatively
light, and the attendance of buy
ers in quarantine division has
been good all week and market
active. Fed steers have sold from
$4.35 to 1915, and grass steers
have sold up to 1925. Fed cows
have been scarce, and sold at
1915 to So 70; a few grass cows
sold at 1925, and one bunch
of grass bulls brought $3.05
Veal calves do not sell
any better than last week, and
top in quarantine division this
week was $4.75. Outside of tenn
porary fluctuations, the good
prices are expected to be held up,
as the receipts will be light for
the next several weeks.
Hog prices advanced after the
middle of last week up to yester-
day, but market Is a little lower
TODAY, with top, however, Of
$4.65, III cents above the low
time last week. Bulk of sales to-
day is "a As to S4.60. Light hogs
have been selling better relatively
than heavy ones, and weights be-
low 200 pounds bring up to 81 45.
Prices on Texas muttons are Il

Market was 10 cents higher Mon
day, when several loads of Tex
ans, Job to 85lb, sold at $4,G5 to

and sale was considered strong on
that account. Market was 10 to

been steady since. Good Texas
muttons sell at S4.G0 to $3.50;
medium, 1870 to 81 80, and culls
down to S3.75. Market can hard
ly suffer much, as the shortage
now prevailing from Southern
