TEARING UP THE STREETS.

The board of public works gave
permission TO 1.-THE Home Telephone
company to tear up the brick street
at the intersection of Fifth and JEFF
ferson Streets" to the "Paducah Gas
company to tear up the brick street
in front of the Elks' Home" and ITO
the Paducah Traction company to
tear up and open the bitu'ithic street
in front of the postoffice where its
double track now ends"
After two whole days spent in
chewing the rubber off the
end of lead pencil, that
is the best argument offered
in answer to The Suns statement,
that no reasonable advocate of mu-
nicipal ownership desires to build a
new water plant and tear up the
streets of the city to lay pipes where
pipes already lie. Enthusiastically
enough, the reply does not say any
thing about the fact, that the COM
panies which are granted the per-
mits execute bonds to replace the
streets in as good condition as before
they were torn up. But, regardless
of that important oversight, consider
the utter stupidity of the comparison
between unnecessarily tearing up
all the streets of Paducah and pub
lie service corporations tearing up a
longitudinal section of street d
block long at most.
In order for the city to build its
own water plant il would be neces-
sary to dig a trench through the
center of every street In the city
from the northern extremity of Row.
landtown to the southern limits OF
Mechanicsburg; from the Ohio river
to the western borders. Not only
would these trenches be dug for mains
but lateral trenches from the mains
into nearly every dooryard in Padu-
cab would have to be dug. 1t is con-
sentative to say that $4,000 would
not cover the damage done to the
streets alone, not to mention the cost
OF labor in digging the trenches and
rebuilding the streets, the cost OF
pipe and the price of the water plant
itself. Streets now grayeled and
seryiceable would be q succession OF
lateral ridges about 30 feet apart
With Longitudinal ridge down the
middle, and nothing but paving
could ever repair them.

Alderman Miller did carry to
Frankfort a bill creating board OF
park commissioners for cities of the
second class, but Alderman Miller
did not carry to Frankfort bill ere
quiring second class cities to spend
thousands of dollars for parks" and
the person that made the latter state
ment knew 1t at the time. and even
in correcting his first statement care
fully yelled the truth. Alderman
Miller's bill created board of park
commissioners. The bill was drawn
at the instance of Lexington officials,
as Mayor Yeiser will state. Alder
man Miller had II prepared so as to
protect Paducah which must neces-
sarily be affected by II, and his meas
ure provided that the general council
might at its option appropriate so
much money each year for park pur-
poses as its members should see fit
The law that was enacted by the DEM
ocratic legislature fixed an arbitrary
appropriation of cents on the 800

is the measure, requiring second
class cities to spend thousands of
dollars" a very different thing from
what Alderman Miller carried to
Frankfort" Now listen to the ex-
PLANTATION made by the author Of the
falsehood: Zone feature of the bill
being changed by the legislative COM
mittee after he left Frankfort"
Since that changed feature in the bill,
as enacted, relieves the charge
against Alderman Miller of any re-
semblance to the truth, in common
deceney 1t deserves more elaboration
Alderman Miller has offered the pro-
visions Of his bill to be published in
parallel columns with the provisions
of the law. as enacted: but We doubt
II this will be done, as it is not COM
patible with the spirit In which this
bit of mendacity was conceived. Sly
perversion of facts is more despie-
able than falsehood of the whole
cloth, because less easily exposed.

We cannot but suspect that Cover
nor Beckham, with design, badgered
''Mahse Henry Watterson into open
ly attacking him. Observe what a
big crowd focked to his meeting at
Owensboro the next day to hear what
the governor would say in reply, and
note the columns of pure reading
matter devoted to his speech in all
the state papers. Even the anti-ad-
ministration papers were compelled
to publish Beckham arguments in
order to crafty their readers desire
to keep up with the fight. Pears like
"Mahse Henry" advertised the gov
ernor pretty well.

BELIEVES PEARY AT POLE.
Has Instructive Feeling That Ex'
plorer Has Attained His Goal.

Portland, Me-, Oct. 29.--Mrs. Ro-
bert +. Peary. wife of the Arctic ex-
plorer, who Is about to return to her
home in Washington. is certain her
husband has found the north pole,
and will soon be on his way home to
tell about II. 81 do not expect to
hear from him." she said until the
last of November, and will not be
disappointed IL | do not hear from
him then. When the expedition
started. 1t was hoped they might re-
turn sooner. II my husband has not
yet reached the pole. suppose he is
in winter quarters at Cape Hecla, but
have an instructive feeling that he
has achieved the ambition of his
fife. TO my mind there Is only one
possibility that he viii not return
alive. The dogs on which he depends
to carry him across the frozen coun-
try, should they be attacked by the
dread dog disease, might die and
leave him with no means of trans
portation."

Big Hosiery Display.

Chicago, Oct. 2s.-Hoslery dis
plays created so much interest at
the Masonic Temple corner today
that a squad of policemen was re-
auired to keep the crowds in motion.
The wind blows at that corner even
on still days. Today II blew hurri-
cane. Throngs gathered to see wom-
en- cross the street. The situation
grew very embarrassing. Assistant
Chief OF Police Schnettler CHANGED to
pass that way and was shocked. Soon
afterward Sergeant Maloney and ten
bluecoat arrived on the scene. Even
they had some trouble in scattering
the spectators. ana several men had
to be dubbed before they would rec
ognize the right of the police TO pro-
tect women shoppers neither extrem-
tiles from their gaze.

The Rigors of Cold Weather.

Probably ate mo time of the year
does the physical condition of the
body demand more attention than
just at this season. the beginning of
cold weather.
Let the system be run down, or the
blood impoverished to any extent and
the cold weather goes hard with you.
Naturally the thing to do is to
get the circulation in good order and
the whole system toned up to stand
the rigors of winter.
Some physicians prescribe the dali
~ cold bath, others seek recourse in
blood tonics and other stimulants.
but, probably the most rational treat
ment of all is the Osteopathic, as
Osteopathy more quickly. and more
effectively rights the blood flow and
restores normal conditions than any
other known treatment.
Osteopathy is only natural
treatment, a method of bioodless sur
gical manipulations to remove any
distractions interfering with the pro-
per transference of nerve force, or
natural blood flow, or the other flu
ids, TO the organ or part involved.
I should like to have you call and
let me tell of some Paducah people
whom you know well that Osteopa-
thy has done much for, and also to
tell you what 1t will do in your par
ticular case.

Remember. in voting for the park
construction bonds you are voting
for park in your own ward, to be
constructed in two years instead of
ten or twenty years, when property
advances; and you are voting for
something for your enjoyment and
that of your children without increa-
sing the tax rate one cent, or inter-
fering with any possible future bond
issue the city may desire. Not only
will you not increase the tax rate
by voting the bonds, but your mega
tive vote will not increase the posi-
bility of a reduction in the rate,
since the legislature has seen fit TO
fix the levy for park purposes. Let's
be for Paducah.
