What the outcome of the bond
election at Salem for street paving
win be will not be known until after
the votes are counted. The ar
rangcment is certainly all that can
be desired. Abutting property own
ers should pay the two-thirds and the
city in general the other third. But,
Of course, there are some who own
good deal of vacant real estate,
who are fighting the proposition.
Still. all such should be made by
popular vote to come into line. They
claim an injustice. There is one, it
is true, but not on the part of the
people. The ones who own the
vacant property are inficting the in
justice. They want TO hold farms
in the bounds of city and they do.
Why? Because they want other
people to build around them, that is
to say, make a larger and better city
and thus afford them a chance to
make fortunes out of their farm
lands. But the people in general,
if they have their right senses, have
grasped the idea and will see that the
land misers dough up.

While it is commendable to
sprinkle and sweep the streets, vet
care should be taken not to make
mud out of the dust. The sweeper
does not act properly in mud. 1t
merely smears and next day one finds
as much dust as ever. after the sun

The statement made in another

Clarksburg is already a financial

Paris, Dec. 26.-I'ae remaining suits
brought by creditors with the object
of making Madame Gould, formerly
Countess Boni De Castellane, Jointly
responsible with the count for certain
claims, were decided. The court found
that she was in no way responsible for
the claims of ". Zeigler, one of the
largest creditors, who claimed that it
was the practice of the Castellanes
ever since their marriage to appeal to
him to extricate them from financial
difficulty. She was jointly liable for
jewels valued at s24,0 900 purchased
from Mile. Vera Nimidoff of Odessa,
who sold the jewels TO Count Boni
through the intermediary of ieweler.
The court also found that Madame
Gould was Jointly liable for the sum
of about s57 1000. due the Hartogs for
a jewelry bill amounting to about
s137 900. provided the bill was not
paid. Three experts were appointed
to appraise the value of the jewelry.
