TUESDTY, JANUARY 80, 1906.
WE'RE ALL ON.

The Senate, hards pressed by the
reform measures advocated by Pres
ident Roosevelt, stands like rat at
bay showing its teeth and trying to
bite the hand that has cornered it.
Rather than get down to business,
on the railway-rate bill, the Senate
thinking that by the destruction of
the Presidents popularity it can at
tain it's own ends, has set about sys-
tematically to turn public opinion
from the one man who has enough
nerve to stick up for the rights of
the people of this nation. BY setting
afoot Investigations into the Presi-
dents policy with regard to affairs
in Panama and Santo Domingo, the
Senate is seeking to divert attention
from its own shortcomings to what
it pretends are shortcomings of Pres
ident Roosevelt. But the people
whom the Senate has deliberately
misrepresented for years are on to
its game of "bunco" in Washington,
and are ready to call any more bluffs
which that august assembly may en-
deavor to perpetrate.

These are days when ice men sigh
As wintry days go gliding by
Without a freeze.
While we in throes of real delight
Just revel in tn eice mans plight
Without remorse.
When summers here and roses
bloom
And iced tea comes on for its boom,
Why We'll get "ours.'
The money now we save on coal
Will to the ice mans Golfer roll,
And be will smile.
And thus maxim old applies
No matter if we do despise
To give it heed.
Laughing last is laughing best
And who will laugh with greatest

cit is apparent. therefore, and it
is of deep concern to every citizen,
that If the Barber Asphalt Paving
Company had accepted the aboya-
quoted invitation, and joined III the
undertaking, all asphalt contractors
Of consequence in the United ST IT IS
would have been leagued together in
an avowed movement to restore the
old regime of high asphalt prices. a
regime which was the cause of vast
expense and endless trouble to The
cities of the country, and which
brought disgrace upon the whole as
phalt industry.
1T is perfectly obvious that if, as
stated, the purpose of this organiza-
ton was solely to remedy the evil
of low prices the move would have
been too palpably indefensible
Hence the phrase "too often getting
poor work. That these so-called in
dependent concerns are uniting to in
duce cities to exact better work from
themselves, is delightfully."- phiIan-
thropic notion. 1t is clear, however
that this new combine would gladly
receive the cooperation of the Bar
Der Asphalt Paving Company, which
however, is not in need of help from
its good competitors either as to pric-
es or in the technique of laying good
pavements.
at will be interesting for the
public to note that while these so.
called independent companies are
complaining Of low prices, this com.
pany, having successfully surmount
ed innumerabIe difficulties, has just
resumed the payments of dividends.
.'For the past three years this
company has been the principal fac
tor In reducing the prices of asphalt
paving throughout the United Staes
and its workmanship speaks for it
self. We have taken the position
since Mr.. Barber was forced out Of
the management, that coIlusive bid
ding was not only illegal, but fata
business policy. This Company nov
maintains-and it proposes to contin
ue to maintain-that it's best inter
ests will be subserHed if asphalt paw
ing is supplied to the people every
where at prices which will populariz
it and swell. its use to the creates
possible extent.
"The press and public are there
fore asked not to overlook the fac
that whenever the name Barber AS
phalt CO. is used in connection wit
this new association, the reference
to the A. L.. Barber Asphalt CO., an
not in any Way to the Barber As
phalt Paving Co."

Constant Reader-Yes, Friday,
February 2 is ground hog day, but
under the present administration it
is not a legal holiday. The saloons,
postoffice and banks will be open for
the regulation hours. Judge Abbott is
one of the few local friends of the
much pestered ground hog who
thinks that the day should be set
apart in its honor. The Judge will
as usual close his Justices office next
Friday-when he goes to dinner.
Well, anyhow, "Doc' Gem, city
street commissioner will have some
degree of satisfaction when he loses
office next September by the incum-
bency of the Democratic administra-
ton. He will be relieved of that
bunch of keys he has been carrying
around for six years and which is
wholly responsible for his inability
to fatten up. At last counting there
were 9S7 separate keys on the log
chain that "Doc'' carries and it is
said that it will require the success
sor of the present street commission
err three years time to learn where
each key belongs. "'Doc" is a parti-
san Republican and though he will
relinquish Office without a murmur
he will not agree to teach his success
sor all he knows about that bunch of
junk.

cutor Kiplinger should press forward

things over there, proves its great
need. -Connersville News.
The financial condition of the city
of Rushville is such that strict econ
omy is necessary in order that the
current expenses may be met and the
bonded Indebtedness reduced with as
much rapidity as possible. At the
present time the city is employing
three extra policemen to assist the
marshal. From the number of ar
rests that are being made, the
amount of work these men are doing
and the way that this city is being
guarded at night we believe that the
police force is unnecessarily large.
These men are each receiving $40
per month. This makes total of
$3.50 per month that the city is pay
ing out for police protection. In re-
turn for this investment, if it may be
called such, is the city getting the
proper returns? Considering the
debt that the city is laboring under
we believe that strict economy is not
being practiced as regards the police
department. -Rushville Republican.
Rushville has reached a point IL
its growth where something should
be done to put the city in the rank:
of the wide awake and progressive
cities of the State. Rushville ha:
a splendid chance to come to tn,
front by securing new factories, thus
adding to the population and increas
ing the business of each and ever,
merchant and manufacturer in tn
city. A society having for its on
desire and purpose-the improve
ment, cleansing and identifying o
Rushville- should be organized an
maintained Republican.
