The Lie Courteous.

Los Angeles Times:
One If the great questions still to
be solved is how to make life more
bearable by filling it with those little
common Courtesies that should 90
with the every day relations between
people as they move along the high.
way Of life together. 1t is the little
courtesies that we have learned,
as human beings, to extend to one an.
other that, almost more than any.
thing else, make life worth living.
Bad manners and bad breeding are
among the offenses that make the
way we travel the harder to endure.
And the worst Of ills that men
appear to te no better In this respect
now than they were before they had
books to read, forks to eat with and
street cars to ride In.

rhe Proposed Suburban Line.

The instinct OF self preservation |
urges the people Of Lexington at
least to maintain its present trade
territory. The development Of mines
at distance from Lexington so great
as to tempt the miners 10 large
numbers to make their homes in the
immediate vicinity of the mines
suggests the Importance and the
urgency of providing means of trans
portation to these places to prevent
the growth Of camps into towns
which might divert much retail trade
and depreciate property values here,
The proposed motor line from Lex.
ingtOn to the mines south Of towL
would doubtless result in increasing
the population of the city by two
thousand people in three or four
years. Aud this new population
would princip lily consist of the more
provldent, thrifty class Of mine
workers, who would want for their
children the benefit of our schools.
There can be little doubt that a
motor line such as is projected
would be found profitable not only
10 tue community as social
organism but to the individuals who
make the investment 1t would
prove the begloning Of a career OF
expansion. In less than Eve years
this line would doubtless be extended
to the G s. a. railroad aud perhaps
other lines in other directions started
The trade territory to the south Of
US and to the west of us could be
greaJlY enlarged 10 this way and the
disadvantage which Lexington has
suffered since steamboat days could
be largely overcome These steps
would not be Inconsistent with the
longtime AMBITION of bridging the
river, but would rather lead to 1t,
By no course Of reasoning can 1t be
maintaiue1 that inertia will prove
profitable to US. The rapid growth
OF the towns in the mineral belt ol
Southwestern Missouri and south
western Kansas Is to be attributed IL
large measure TO the energy witt
which the people set themselves tt
the solution OF the same problem
that is presented to us. II this is {
profitable mining couutry let the
people Of Lexington see to it thai
this city is made the center OF thi
community and !et them push out
radIatlug lines OF transportation tt
any neighboring district which
capital seeks to develop.

HEAVY LOSS BY FIRE.
Graft Bros. Clothing Sock Burned and
the Building Badly Damaged.

Saturday night about 10 o'clock the
kothing store OF Gratz Bros, was
huno TO be on fire. The fire
company responded to call promptly
aud made hard fight for more than
40 hour, preventing the spreading of
the flames to adjacent buildings.
Practically nothing was saved,
however, in the clothing store. In
the shoe and women's furnishings
department no direct damage was
done by fire, but the goods were
badly damaged by soot smoke and
heat. These departments are in the
store 70 the west OF the clothing
store. There is an archway
connection near the front, but
fortunately the fire seems TO have had
its origin 10 the rear OF the clothing
slore. The two story brick wall
between made it impossible for the
flames to reach the shoe store except
\ though the archway in front The
heat was sutnclent, however, 10 break
the plate glass IN the front Of the
west building
The origin IL the fire is not known
Evidently it began in the rear Of the
clothing store, and the proprietors
are under the impression that it
might have come from dt fective
wiring. The store had not been
closed more than twenty minutes
when the discovery was made, How
the fire could have made 50 much
progress in so short time is one OF
theinexplicable things The paste

fire and dropped it upon the shelves

the tables were charred to the bottom

that they have liberal contribution
Of votes.
From now on the contest will be
the real thing. The first six posi-
tions belong to anyone in the list, for
the lead of no one is sufficient to
count out any young woman who
really wishes to make this trip,
which will be the most interesting
and most enjoyable ever made by any
person born in these Islands.
The young women will see the
country and the people under the
most favorable circumstances. The
people will be on the watch for them
all along the line and leading citi-
zens of each and every town will
compete to do them the greatest hon
or. Many persons who have visited
the Islands will assist in their en-
tertainment and many more will be
added to the number of people anx-
ious to see the country from which
these attractive young women come.
1t is right close now to the final
lineup, So save your votes, get
YOUR subscriptions together and help
the favorite whom you believe should
tc remembered. The result after
last nights count follows:
