That Lancaster will have laundry,
| is now an assured fact. Mr. Horace X
| Herndon has contracted with DR. ] B
Kinnaird for a large building TO he
erected on the lot i'm rear of the latter'S
office, on Danville street, and the
material for the house has been order
ed Sanders Bros, of tie Lancas, er
Planning Mills. were given the ORDER,
and, as they have the material in
stock, it Will be delivered on the lot at
once The frame portion between DIR
Kinnaird'S office and the Ballard
House will be made into an entrance
into the laundry building, making it
very convenient and an ideal location
for the business. Mr. HerndOn went to
Cincinnati this week and placed the
contract for a large lot of the latest
improved machinery, and this Will be
shipped in few days. 1t will not re
quire much time to complete the house
as 1T requires no difficult work. and
arge force of hands will be worked.
That a laundry in Lancaster will
prove a paying venture, there is no
doubt, and the benefit it will be to
the people cannot be over estimated.
All kinds Of washing will be done,
especial attention being given to that
class of material which the cOlOred
woman of today has to be begged and
and dOubIy paid to do. The impression
that only collars, cuffs, shirts, etc, will
be handled is mistake. The problem
of securing a washerwOman Is today
as serious as that of obtaining cook,
and now that this will be elimated,
there will be much rejoicing among
the housewives of the town and cOun-
ty. A delivery wagon will be run. and
all work called for and delivered. The
cost. in the long run, will not be as
high as it is today, when The washer
woman is depended upon.

SUCCESS WITHIN REACH.
Promoters of New Hotel Meeting
with Much Success Only Small
Amount Needed to Complies
Plans

After long and tedious effort. Ger
tain Lancaster citizens have worked
the hotel question up to point where.
with very little more liberality on the
part of others, the sadly needed enter
prise can be secured. Those who
have subscribed can readily see that
the building and maintaining OF such
hotel as the Garrard was, Will SO In
crease the value of their other proper
ty in Lancaster that they will in this
way get greater returns for money
than il loaned out at six per cent, ana
that what they put into the building
is at the same time perfectly safe, as
the hotel stands good therefor, and
Mr. thinner is to keep it insured and
pay the taxes. The building is to be
erected on the old site, built around
the handsome new Garrard Bank Il
Trust Co.'S building. All the space
will be utilized as hotel, no room be-
ing taken up with an opera house. The
building is to be modern in every re
srect, and, as Mr. and Mrs thinner, the
proposed managers have had expert
ence in the business first class hotel
is assured.
The llberality displayed by some of
our citizens is commendabIe, indeed.
We say ''liberality," but In reality 1t
is plain, good business sense, for any
prOperty.holder knows that hotel like
the famous Garrard did more to adver
tise and bring business to the town
than anything else. A town is judged
more from it's hotel accommodations
than from any other point, from the
fact that it is there the stranger must
go, it is the home of the drummer,
who can make or kill a town quicker
than any other means. There is
enough money lying idle in the three
local banks to build house forty
stories high, but, to the detriment of
the town, the depositorS will not let it
out only at six, eight or ten per cent,
after every property holder in Gar
rard county has pledged his name as
security. The amount lost in Specula
ton in foreign investments" will
never be xnOwn, as many of those who
lost i'm the gambling schemes are too
much ashamed of their folly to tell
even their most intimate friends. But
TO get back o he point. The Record
is not of the opinion that the monled
people Of Lancaster are going TO let
this opportunity pass, for they have
too much pride and good business
judgement to sit Idle and thus lose the
last ray of hope ever to be given the
town. We will be frank and say that
if this falls through, hotel will never
be built in Lancaster, and she will al
ways be little one horse, backwOOds
hamlet, which the travelling public
will fight shy of, and never fail to take
shot at when asked by those who
have never been up against it.
AS stated above, the money is here,
there can he no loss. it's need is as
PLAIN as day light. and The Record
does not believe those in position to
now make the effort success will tie
another hard-knOt i'm their purse
strings. continue to watch for foreign
good things" and let the old town
drag along in snail'S pace. What is
to be done must be done i'm the next
week. Let's see what we shall see.

IMMIGRATION Ruling
Head Tax DoubIed-Non- Citizens Re-

Pay a Tax.

The United States immigrant in

word. to the effect that the head tax
on all aliens entering the United
States will this year, beginning July
/, be raised from 50 to $4. The rev.
enue of the immigrant department
from this source will thus be doub-
led
The head tax law has been in eff
feet about three years, but there are
still number of aliens in the United
States who do not know OF it's exis-
tence. According to its terms, any
man who is not citizen of the Unit
ed States, Canada or Mexico, must pay
tax of So on crossing the boundary
into this country. No matter how long
a man has lived in the United States,
he is subject to the tax on his return
from trip into another country, pro-

Last year a number of cases came
under notice where men who had lived
here twenty years or more, had to pay
the tax on their return from Canada.
They were much surprised and grieved
that this should be the case, but there
was no way out of it, 1t was either
pay or go back to Canada.
