FESTIVE, vicious spirit of the warning
factions whose only mission was to
assassinate. Finally the press train
ed its guns on the conditions that
prevailed. and a sudden change was
wrought. The lawless elements be-
San to see the handwriting, but 1t
was too late. They had their past
deeds to answer for, and some of
them are now answering. The Har-
gises and Galatians. according to re-
ports, have practically spent their
fortunes in defending themselves
against indictments for murder and
Damage suits growing out of assas-
sinations. and only recently an in
dictment was found against them
for the Marcum assassination. The
prospects are that the reign of law
lessness in Breathitt is over. If 1t
is, the law-abiding people owe il to
the press of the state and country.

Among the opponents of the light
ing contract are to be found men
who opposed the sanitary sewerage,
the waterworks and waterworks ex-
tension and permanent street i'm
provements, new market house and
city hospital from a bond issue.
Among them we find men who ad-
vocated the city's reputation of its
railroad bonds, which was finally
thwarted only through the lnterven-
ton of the federal court, costing the
taxpayers several thousand dollars
in interest, attorneys fees, and 9TH
er costs.
We find among them many of
those men who are in favor of al
lowing the cows to Craze on the pub
lie thoroughfares and make it haz-
ardous undertaking to beautify
wards, and almost impossible to keep
the streets and sidewalks clean.
We also find among them. some
of those who a few years ago spent
the enormous sum of 100000 on
the streets in four years, much of it
for drain pipes which because they
we're rank failures, have since beer
torn up and the old wooden culverts
substituted, at additional expense to
the taxpayers.
We find that most of the opposi-
ton to this lighting contract con

body and soul A large percent of
the money paid out by the city every
month firds its way into their cash
drawers because they have a pull.
and they do not want the golden
stream to slacken or stop.
There are of course some good
men against the lighting contract,
but few of them are saying much.
Those who are doing the most talk
ing are largely those who have least
right TO. They are not interested in
whether the city saves money or
loses it. They have axes to grind
and are stupid enough to think that
the public can't see the sparks.
1t is to be hoped that the members
of the general council will size up

THE ISLAND CREEK
BRIDGE PROJECT
General Council Will Take it
Up Shortly.
Petitions Now BEING Passed In Me-
chanicsburg Asking for Car
Line Extension.
BRIDGE MUST COME FIRST

The council will take up the prop
osition of building a new bridge
across Island Creek at Fourth street
in a short time, and the probabili-
ties are that a stone and concrete
structure will be put there.
I'VE must do something with that
old bridge at once" said council
man today, speaking of the present
bridge. 81 was in Mechanicsburg a
few days ago when the fire depart
ment had to make run across the
bridge and the way II swayed and
tottered frightened me. Unless we
do something with the bridge soon
we shall have an accident there
which will cost the city good deal
more than a good bridge will.
81 am in favor of putting in a
good structure. The suggestions to
take up the proposition with the
street car company. and jointly build
bridge meets with my APPROVAL. and
| think this will probably be done"
Petitions are being circulated in
Mechanicsburg now asking the street
car company to extend IT'S lines over
there, but the proposition would
hardly be considered by the company
unless the bridge proposition is
taken up. AS it seems probable It
will, Mechanicsburg may have the
car lines this summer.
In this connection it is reliably re-
ported that the street car company
has about completed its plans for the
extensions 1t will make to its track
age this summer. and what fran
chises will be asked for within few
weeks. and, If granted, the work will
be pushed to completion this sum
mer.

st. Louis Live stock Market.

National Stock Yards, ILL.,, Feb.
2S, 19O6.-The week opened with
very light receipts of cattle and a
strong, active market; beef steers re-
gaining the loss noted last week,
when at the close, most sales showed
decline of Is to % cents. A good
many plainish pretty good export
steers are selling from 1925 to
$3.50: yet II takes a pretty good
grade of 1850 to 1850 pound steers
to bring $40 to s5.25. No fancy
grades have been here, thus account
ing for the lack of higher quotations,
as something prime as TO flesh and
quality would sell around 5000. In
short, the bulk of the fat steers are
selling from s4.35 to s4.90.
Butcher grades showed less de-
cline than beef grades last week and
likewise a little more strength this
week, values averaging shade high
er than noted in our last letter. Odd
lots OF Stalled prime fat cows have
reached $3.50. but the bulk of the
receipts sold from $3.50 TO s415;
cutters around $500 and Gamers
from $3.50 down. Some sales show
10 to 90 cents advance over a week
ago.
We have the highest hog market
in the west. and extreme top of $40
having been reached here and our
values are 20 cents higher than Kan
sas City and 3 to 10 cents higher
than Chicago. Chicago had 10000
hogs on Monday which caused a
slight set back, but prices have ruled
steady TO strong since with the bulk
Of the packers selling s6.15 to s6.25;
pigs and lights 1925 to $685..
Compared with year ago the
average prices of cattle are s1.35 per
cwt. higher; hogs 35 cents higher
and sheep about IS cents lower.

There was prospect a short time
ago that the members of the legisla-

to be bluffed by the wall that went
up relative to the light contract. but
since it became so plain who is back
of the opposition, they are bracing
up. and from reports, will be found
still lined up for what is best for the
city when the matter is finally acted
