A hint TO THE WISE.

Our Correspondents, ever alert and
always punctual, strictly impartial and
always mindful of the demands of good
taste in what they report, deserve our
gratitude as well as the thanks of their
neighbors and our reaGers generally.
They know that this sentiment is sim
cere. Now, to make their efforts yet
more useful, we ventuge to draw their
attention to weakness reporters-a
weakness especially noticeable in re-
porters on the great dailies-against
which we wish our representatives to
be on guard. We refer to the prevail
ing disposition to fill the columns of
the papers with endless trivialities and
insignificant details in connection with
the mention of notable or worthy per-
sons.
If there is general demand for such
matter, it only argues that there is
prevailing morbid taste that requires a
daily mention of just how the several
members of the Thaw family, for in
stance, came into the Court room and
took their seats; that demands a tel
egraphic report Of every notable Grim
malls daily bill of fare; that gives hours
to the reading of the prattle of cranks
and crooks who, if met face to face,
would not be esteemed worthy of a
passing nod; and that distributes in the
homes of millions of decent people the
filth of the bangnio, the profanity of
the bar-room and abe off-scouring of
the Police Court. We are not afflicted
with anything of this sort; but we have
noticed tendency to mention trivial
tiles in detail.
Hence, we make a suggestion. In
stead of reporting that ''Mr. G. Inmud,
one of our best citizens, was unable to
get to Columbia last week." wait till
this same good old citizen "mends his
ways" and then say: ''Mr G Inmud,
having rallied his neighbors to his as
sistance, and having repaired the i'm
passible places in the road near his
farm, was able to take his wife with
him in buggy to Columbia last week."
See? That is well enough; but this is
more deserving of notice; and the good
man is all the more welcome in Column
bia, and his name is the more cheerful
ly printed in the News, because he has
done helpful deed and has brought
his wife along to share in the benefits
of it. In brief and in fine, let us hear
the good and useful things our coun try
men are doing; and we are sure that no
correspondent need ever lack for mat
ter or be in the least dull, provided he
has eyes to see what worthy and help
full things his neighbors are doing.

PORTLAND CEMENT
Has Become a Great FavOrite With
Engineers and Architects in
Construction Work.

The Importance of Portland Cement
as building material and the rapidity
with which it's manufacture has come
to the front in recent years, are mat
tiers of which our readers probably
know very little. Yet, we have cause
to be greatly interested in the subject.
Timber, the building material on
which we have hitherto depended, IS
becoming scarcer every day. Iron and
steel, which also are limited in amount
and expensive to transport, are in the
hands of monopolists. The time in not
far distant when the demand for &C.
ment, great as it is even now, will be
very much greater. We start the ques-
ton, In what way will that demand af-
feet us? The purpose of this article is
to answer this question.
In 1890 the total output of Portland
Cement in the United States was g.
100 short tons. Since then the out put
has gradually increased year by year
till, in 1906, it reached the enormous
amount of 100000 tons. Churches,
Government buildings, Manufacturing
plants, bridges, abuttments, viaducts,
sewers, pavements, dams, retaining
walls, and many other erections are
now being constructed of this material;
and so satisfactory has it proved, it
has become fayorite with engineers
and architects throughout the whole
country. The reasons are, it is COM
Sparatively cheap, and it is practically
Everlasting.
Up to the present time the State of
Pennsylvania has had almost monopoly
# this industry, for the reason that
- points where the materials required for
It's manufacture can be found under
frst class conditions in every particular,
are very few; and Pennsylvania has had
almost monopoly of these favoring
conditions. A particular variety of
limestone, a particular variety of clay,
and transportation facilities, are the
required conditions.
Given a first class road to the Cum
berland river and all the required con-
ditions are met in Adair county.
All the citizens Of Adair have to do
is to think; and, GAS man thinketh,
so is he." The Congress of the United
States has granted an appropriation of
over half million dollars for the i'm
provement of the upper Cumberland.
This means cheap transportation to
market for cement, lime, bricks, thing,
building stone and lumber. And to
what markets? Those of all the towns
and cities along the rivers to the gulf
of Mexico; to the Isthmus of Panama
where enormous quantities of these
materials will be needed for the next
ten to fifteen years; and to the mar
kets of the world.
Shake that man from the country
who is not a member of the Columbia
Commercial Club, and tell him to wake
up! Things are going to happen that
he is interested in, and he will thank
you. Give him copy of the News
and invite his co-operation IN an effort
to better our commercial facilities.
The clay manufactured into cement,
thing, pottery and bricks IN the State
Of Indiana annually realizes TO that
State not less than three times as
much money as the entire lumber bus
mess in Kentucky brings into our State.

Give your mite to the Adair county
fund for the Kentucky Exhibit at the
Jamestown Exposition. If you haven't
enough patriotism and love for the old
State to open your pocket book to this
worthy cause, get behind the barn and
give yourself good kicking, then
move out of the state.

The daily tribune., 1907-08-01
Two Calls for the Outstanding
Warrants will Cause In.
terest to Cease Soon.
HAPPY DiY FOR
ALL THE CIV DADS
Future Water Collections Nav
Be Applied to Bonds.-S75,ooo
To Be Taken Up Soon.

The city water fund Is soon to be
free from warrant Indebtedness and
that will be within the next thirty
days. City Treasurer Howelis this
morning made q call for all the re.
naming outstanding warrants that
have been issued by the city clerk,
and, the call running for thirty days,
signifies that on the first day of Sep.
tember every warrant now out and
drawing interest will have been call
ed in and paid.
This is the day that the city has
been looking forward to for some
months as it signalizes new epoch
in the affairs of the city finances as it
means that another big debt has been
wiped out. This statement does not
signify, however, that that depart
ment OF the city affairs is entirely
free from debt as there yet remains
the bonds which are to be taken care
of when the time specified in the
ordinance states.
There are now two calls for out
standing warrants running-one of
them being due on the seventeenth of
the present month. In the two calls
is included about 5000. The pay.
ment for the warrants that are to be
issued in the meantime has been
provided for and consequently that
department of the city funds hence.
forth will be on cash basis. There
is enough cash on hand in the bank
to take care of the August issue and
there is still more money to come
from the water collections The
number of the last warrant issued il

Contrary to all expectations the

collections for this half year from
water rentals is greater than the
corresponding months of last year
The report was put in circulation
some weeks ago that is was thought
that the collections would be at least
81. COO less than last year at this time,
but instead they were larger, much
larger. The report was based on tho
fact that many persons had left the
city and that the moisture in the
early part of the year would be the
means of the patrons using much less
water on their lawns The July
collections for 1906 were IS, 433. S5 I;
this year they were Is, ,G45 81
Just what is to be done with the
money that is to be derived from the
water works in future has not been
decided by the city council, but it is
likely that some deliberations will
be given to the matter at the next reg.
ular meeting. According to the terms
of tho bonds, which amount to si25,
600, the city can begin redeeming
during tho year of 1909, which is two
years from now The city provided
sinking fund for this purpose two
or three years ago and now has con-
siderable money in the banks for
the purpose of fodecming water
bonds in that year. The money
comes from direct taxation and the
sinking fund amounts to $l3, 500 an
nually. Although 1t is not obliga.
tory for the city to begin redeeming
bonds in that year there is provi-
sion whereby they may aud they are
going to take advantage OF the same.
There is n clause which makes II COM
| pulsory to redeem the bonds in the
year 1913, however, but by the time
that year rolls around there will be
a big chunk of the bonds redeemed
and the interest, which now is some
thing enormous every year, will
cease.
1t is planned TO have at least $50, 9.
600 or probably SIS, 600 in the sinking
fund by the year 1909 and this Will
be used in taking up Just that many
dollars worth Of water bonds. These
bonds draw interest at the rate OF six
por cent per year and on t75, ,0ca,
means 50, 900 year In int rost alone.
In addition to cutting the bond issue
