What's the use in delaying giving
the oiled street a test in Paducah
The mayor casually mentioned it and
test was ordered two or three
weeks ago, but nothing has ever
been done. Down in Jackson, Tenn,
experiments are being made with
both oil and tar. and the material
comes cheap. Seven car loads of oil
were donated from the Texas oil
fields, and two tanks of coal tar Civ
en- by an eastern concern. Paducah
could doubtless get 1t the same way.
Somebody should take it up, and
break the city of its grasshopper
habit of Kidding the summer
away"

OPENING TENTH STREET.

The general public will watch with
interest the manner in which the
city authorities handle the opportu-
nifty to open Tenth street from
Broadway to Kentucky avenue--an
opportunity which may never come
again. The city, at any time here
tofore. could have condemned the
tobacco warehouses and opened the
street, but the property destroyed
would have had to be paid for,
which would have made II a costly
proceeding. The burning of the bull
dings now leaves the city free to ne
gotiate for the ground and open the
street.
II would be best for the city and
owners to agree on a fair price and
open the street than TO let things
drift i-Sossibly have new build

able to have street names posted this

will be done with it, 1t would cost
only a few hundred dollars to make
the improvement, yet a city that
buys $1,000 worth of property out
in the woods to open a street for the
Messrs. Terrell and improve their
property, cannot afford to spend a

How silly II sounds! OF course these
doctors know more about such things

tors and scientists repudiate the yell

IL. The trouble seems to be that the
mosquito enthusiasts carry It too far.
They contend that yellow fever can
be transmitted only through mos
quitoes. Men equally as intelligent
and Trustworthy declare that mosqui-
toes can carry the germs. just as the
air, water, clothing and such things
carry them but that yellow fever
germ is a germ, and it can be car
ried like any other germ. In a few
years, doctors and scientists will rid

now expounded. just as they have
successfully the half dozen other
yellow fever theories of past years,
each of which in its time was be-
lieved in just as firmly as the mos
quito theory now is.

THE wEALrHIEsT OF NATIoNs

Wealth is multiplying in America
much faster than population, says the
Louisville Herald. The population
of this country increased from 1850
to 1900 in the ratio of three and one
third times. 1t was 23,000,0 200 in
the first named and &c 900, 900 in the
last named year. But its wealth.
which was $1,000, 900, 900 in 1850,
had increased in 1900 to $4,000, 000,-
900, or multiplied more than thir-
teen times. The wealth of the worlds
chief countries is thus estimated in
1905:
Spain, .......s 10000, 900
Italy, ....... $4,000, 900, 900
Austro- Hungary, e.. $4,000. 900, 900
Russia, .....a $4,000, 900, 900
France, ....... $4,000, 200, 900
Germany, ..... 10000, 900, 900
United Kingdom, $4,000 600, 900
United States, 80. 10000, 900, 900
While the United States is moving
upward and far away from all COM
petitors. Germany has distanced
France and is giving Great Britain
close race for second place. Indus
trial education has done much for
Germany. With a more inhospitable
climate and less generous Soil than
that of France, German intelligence
has scored success after success in the
field of competitive industry. Given
a wider field of activity and better
grasp on the worlds markets, Ger
man industry would certainly add
enormously to Germany's present ma
tional wealth. But the United States
has nothing to fear from any Compel
itor. Our protective tariff, besides
securing us the home market, the
best on earth, renders necessary the
production of the best goods. The
world now wants the best only.

The body of Gustav Kahl, Buffalo.
Iowa. resident. was found Saturday
evening in creek half mile above
the village where he had suicided in
the morning. Ii is supposed that he
was laboring under a temporary fit of
insanity. Saturday morning he arose
and rode his bicycle up the road TO
the mouth of the creek, in which the
water is very deep owing to the rise of
the Mississippi. Returning home he
ate breakfast and at once went back
to the mouth of the creek and leaped
into the water. leaving his bicycle on
the bank. Some time after his disap-
pearance a search was made and
eventually the body was found in u
feet of water.
Kahl was b years of age. He was
proprietor of the button factory at
Buffalo. 1t is supposed his mental
condition resulted from i'll health. he
having been sick for period of four
months.

Needs Stimulus of Worlds Sunday

Toronto. Ont, June 2G.-At a closed

the Worlds Sunday School convention
held Saturday night 1t was decided to
hold the fifth worlds Sunday school
convention in Rome in the spring of
1907.
II is really Americas turn to have
the next convention. but the commit
tee held that greater good could be
done by holding ii in a country where
stimulus is more needed. Ii was also
said that it would be possible to get
but few foreigners TO a world cOnven-
tion In America, but that ii was not un-
likely that almost 1000 Americans
would go TO the Rome meeting. The in
fiuence of a world convention in Amer
lea would be no greater than that of
the international convention now in
session.
