Comrades, were you once proud of
your Confederate record? Did you
eagerly enter into this organization to
perpetuate the memory of noble deeds
in Q just cause and to aid in making q
true history of the part taken by US in
as a heritage to coming ages? If so,
why now faulter and prove unfaithful
in the duties you owe to this organ
ization and leave it for a few faithful
ones to perpetuate it.
Surely no truly Confederate solder il
ashamed of his record. If not, why be
so Indifferent that your descendants
seem no longer to cherish the memory
of your deeds in the grandest army that
ever moved on earth?
Come on the 10th and enter anew
upon the duties you owe your selves, your
descendants, and your county.

Mills River.

We are having an unusual spell OF
weather. Cloudy and cold and yet the
fruit is holding its own
. The surveyors are getting on nicely
and have gone through Henderson
county and are making good Roadway
through Buncombe. I think they are
getting a splendid grade and the line
they are now running is certainly the
shortest line that has been surveded
through Mills River Township. Now
if the lake proposition il accepted and
the lake becomes a certainty and the
railroad comes through, old Henderson
will certainly boom. Henderson coun-
ty will be one Of the most delightful
places on this green earth. Let the
people all pull together, country and
town, whatever tends to build up the
town helps the entire county and the
more prosperity the county has the
better it will be for the town; much de-
ponds IN what we do this year.
Mr.. Editor, you made me say some
thing in my last letter that I did not
mean to say, in speaking of Judge Pace.
1 did not say Sheriff Rhodes lot was
full of men but full of man. Judge
Pace IS not men but is a man every inch
of him. And not only is he a man but
according to his size is much of a
man. But he has not always been a
man, l knew him when he was a boy,
we were boys together, and I reckon
there has never been two closer boys
ever'born in the world and I know of
none that have held their own lin this
respect better than we have. The Judge
has out grown me and 1 never expect
TO get even with him, but he will never
get even with mesin one thing, L got 40
many hard falls before he was born and
he is not gaining on me in that respect
80 1 still have the lead.
Mr.. d. r, Hunt is still fishing; he has
caught between twenty-five and forty
water dogs out of one hole in Mills Riv-
er and still he calls it Fishing"

Those who have made statements to
the effect that the new London county
council is not opposed to municipal
ownership will find it hard to explain
| the report recently submitted by the
scommittee having in charge the mat
ter of the Thames steamboats,.
In this report it is stated that they
had tried in vain to sell or lease them
and that their final decision to run
them for four and half months dur
ing the summer must not be taken as
indorsing the previous policy of the
council or as implying any intention
that the boats should be worked after
the summer season. On the contrary,
it Is put forward as the best. if not the
only practical. method OF dealing with
the problem presented to us" The
committee also proposed to reduce
fares and to diminish the wages of the.
employees, which they consider in ex.
cess of what is equitable

JUGGLING CITY ACCOUNTS.
Lincoln (Neb.) Citizens Kept In the
Dark as to the Cost of Their Street
Lights.

Lincoln (Neb.) Citizens Kept In the
Dark as to the Cost of Their Street
Lights.
Lincoln, Neb., is getting an unenvia-
bic notoriety through the attempts of
its officials to make it appear that its
expensive municipal electric plant is
supplying are lights at a low figure.
In the report of the city auditor for
the seven months ended March 81,
1906, although some of the elements of
cost We're omitted, the evident intep-
uon was to give fair showing. But
unfortunately it was shown that the
cost (S73.6S year for lamps burning
only $3.50 hours was larger than the
contract price for lamps supplied by
private companies in neighboring cities.
This was unsatisfactory, of course.
Accordingly in the annual report for
the year ended Aug. 81, 1906, there
was deliberate omission of deprecia-
ton and interest charges on that part
of the plants cost not covered by bonds
-S21, G91, or one-quarter of the total
construction cost Apparently, also,
the lighting schedule had been reduced
to keep the cost down, as the report
shows that the lamps burned only 1896
hours during the year. By these de-
vices the cost was reduced to 5000.
Soon after the appearance of this re
port the mayor gave out in a newspa-
per interview that the plant had been
y grossly maliGned and that it was fur
Nnishing lights all night and every night
4 at cost of S5112 a year 1t is chart
table to suppose that his honor was
unaware of the fact that to give all
night every night service the lamps
must burn 1000 hours year instead
of 1906, as shown by the report quoted
above.
At about the time the mayors in
vestigation appeared an investigation
of the plant was made by Professors
c. II. Richards and c. H. Morse Of the
University of Nebraska. Their detail
ed report gives the cost Per arc per
annum as S9SSi for an ali night serv-
ice, nearly double the cost claimed by
the mayor This report was made by
the city's consulting engineer but
Mayor Brown, who is a candidate for
reelection, has apparently not accept
ed its findings, although, according to
the Omaha Bee, he now places the cost
at S63. %
1t is worth noting that the original
estimate for this plant was $4,000
construction cost and $25,10J annual
expense. The actual construction cost,
as shown in the auditors report, was
$S6,691, nearly IS per cent in excess of
the estimate. The annual expense, as
shown by the expert report, is $50,
80, exceeding the estimate by % per
cent
This is typical example of the sort
of Understanding that leads cities to
adopt municipal ownership and also of
the official juggling of figures by
which the public is temporarily pre-
vented from learning that it has a
white elephant on its hands.

Figured Profits the Usual Way.

Although the last annual report Of
the Charlottesville Qnd) municipal
electric light plant shows met profit"
of $6,727, the trustees have just made
a 10 per cent advance in the charge for
street lighting. This may be account
ed for by the fact that the profits"
are figured before allowing for interest
and depreciation, which amount to
nearly $4,000 a year.
