We hear reports that in some parts
OF the county taxpayers advocate
creating sinking fand which, when
sufficient amount is raised, shall be
used to build court house instead Of
bonding the county for a certain
amount of money and at once con-
struct a suitable county building.
Those who advocate this seem TO
forget that the taxpayers by creating
sinking fund would be paying for
court house which might be erected
ten or twenty years hence and which
would deprive the people of having
safe repository for the county records
all those years. They would be saw
ing money for someone else to build
the court house instead of having the
building erected at once and then
those who came afterward would have
to help pay for it. If the court house
is to be erected at all it is as necess-
airy to have it now as it would be
twenty years hence and perhaps more
so, as fire would destroy documents
Of inestimable value which could
never be replaced. Let the court
house be built now that we may enjoy
the knowledge Of safety as well as to
point with pride to it while we are
paying for it. This county stands
fifth in the point of wealth among the
counties of the state and there is no
good reason why we should not have a
respectable court house.

If you drive through a Russian vii
lage about 10 p. N. you will be struck
by the absolute quiet that pervades
the scene. Not creature man a dog
Is visible moving about. The place has
the air of a deserted village. Suppose
by some rare untoward chance you
come upon a group Of men standing
together, apparently in conversation
you will notice that they speak in sub
dued tones, and, wait so long as you
please, you will never hear them
laugh. The cause is simply this: These
Russian peasants believe in evil spfr-
its; but, unlike the Chinese, they be-
lieve that they are attracted, moi
frightened, by sounds. And so if some
unlucky fate decree that the moujik be
out of doors after II p. IN. he Is pain
fully silent man. This feeling also ex-
tends to some of the southern towns.

model in this respect. After 10 pm.
you may practically have the streets

The public service rendered by the
British railway lines, the convenience
to the traveller and the shipper, is fan
in excess of anything to be found in
this country. The British isles are alb
surdly small when compared with our
vast areas, and this of course simplides
the operating problems. There are no
snowdrifts to delay schedules, no Sec
tons of crudely built track awaiting
perfection, and the locomotives - are
never far from their home shops. Yet
even with allowance for these advan-
tages both freight and passenger traffic
are habitually handled with a regular
ity and certainty that deserve the high
est degree of praise. In any large
terminal in England the number of
passenger trains that arrive either en-
actly en- time or minute or two ahead
is far greater than that of trains even
the least overdue. Five minutes Is usu-
ally a safe margin for an important
connection. At Finsbury Park, a sub
urban station just outside London,
trains pass on an average Of one every
two minutes night and day, yet this
tremendous traffic Is handled with

A little boy in a neighboring town was
required to write an essay the other day.
''The Newspaper" was his subject and
here is the result: 81 don't know how
newspapers came to be in the world.
don't think God does, for he haint gotno-
thing to say about them, and editors are
not in the Bible l think the editor is one
of the missing links you read of and stay
ed in the bushes until after the flood, land
then came outand wrote the thing up and
has been here ever since. l don't believe
he ever dies. l never saw ded one and
never saw one getting licked. Our paper
is mighty poor 'un; the editor goes
without underclothes all winter, dom t
ever wear no socks, and paw hasn't paid
his subscription for more'n five years" -
