SHOULD GO INTO SINKING FUND
Gas Company Franchise Tax Should Be
Added to Fund.

Editor Times: / notice move has
been made to collect the franchise tax
from the gas company which comes due
July 10, and ii may be allowed, I
would like to offer a suggestion in re-
gard to the same: l. e., that this tax
be applied to the sinking fund with
the Is per cent already collected annu-
ally, to be applied to the payment of
our city debts which were contracted
principally in our street. While this
franchise tax may not be large. it will
help to increase the size OF the sinking
fund, which is going to be none too
large to meet our bonded Indebtedness
soon coming due.

Things to be Depis'd.

There ought to be no factions in
a country town. The prosperity
of one business affects the pros
perity of every individual and ev-
cry improvement made enhances
the value of all the property in
the corporation. A village is SIM
ply one big family. When there
is united pull for everything, its
accomplishment is made easy.
Envy, jealousy and hatred are
things to be depised. Envy is a
canker that gnaws at the heart
and makes folks sour, disgruntled
and unhappy. Jealousy warps the
intellect and makes you unfair in
passing judgment. Hatred does
not pay, even from a sordid point
of view. The man you dislike is
the man you don't know. Every
human being has his good points.
The English sparrow isn't a night
ingale. But why remind the spar
row of the fact! Life is short anc
complex at best. Why not speak
good instead of evil. Why no.
look for the silver lining in the
cloudl Why not be fair and
reasonable and just! And above
all don't be an idler. Only tn
busy man or woman is happy. A
a we'll known writer has so aptl,
said, do your work as we'll a
you can and be kind. "-Muscota]
