of Ohio seems to be picking berries
and killing rattle snakes. Joe
Swackhammer killed one big
rattler and Fred Fetherolf killed
one with II rattles.

hitched horse to his road wagon,
and after hitching up he stepped
away few rods, during which
time the children, Lemas, 6, and
Blance, 4, climbed in the rig, the
horse started and the further the
faster. +, +, Schooley saw rig
coming in full speed and he got
out in the road and was successful
in catching the horse, both little
ones still in the rig nnhurt. The
length of the run was near !

Another Taxpayer Speaks

see by advertisement that the citi-
zens of Logan are called on next
Monday, to vote on the question OF
bonding the town in the sum of
twenty six Thousand dollars for
the building of Town Electrical
Light plant.
1 have waited patiently to hear
some reason assigned by the coun-
ell favoring this plan, but all l
have yet heard is that some few
towns, one in Ohio and one in Indi-
ana report favorably for the
scheme.
We might see a reason for the
action of the council If they were
a Socialist Chapter, believing
that the people are Commune,
and that all public enterprises
should be conducted by a Head
Centre, at the expense of all the
people. Nobody for himself and
the Devil take the hindmost."
And if our council should in
their hearts believe the old patri-
archal, the paternal plan of gov
ernment the best, then also, is the
purpose to give US light possibly
excusable. Logan is a Baby or an
Imbecile. It's people can not be
trusted to care for themselves.
They are our children and our
bondmen and women. l, patriarch
Abraham Council will take the
lighting; you, Son-in-Law Lot pub
lie service, take the watering.
Then I, Council, will start meat
market, and you Trustees, open a
barber chop. And 80 on. Individ-
ual enterprise must be suppressed.
We wise and patient patriarchs,
we benevolent Socialists will take
Logan, in it's childish extrava-
gance, it's foolish imbecility in
charge and run it. This is not
the American Method; 1t is not
the Ohio idea; it is not we hope,
the Logan folly.
Now the only excusable reason
for Municipal lighting, is that it
will save money for the Tax pay
ers:
Let US "figger."
1t is assumed that the proposed
bond issue will run 10 years.
Now, at the present rate for
street lighting-$40OO, 90 year,
the town, in ten years will pay
$40, ,O0O.O
Let us see what it will cost un-
der municipal management for 10
years.
We must pay the
bonds ,,..,,..... ......,,,,.., $26, 600. 90

Total expense in-10 -|

AS against $40,000.OO under

But says Council, the Town will
own it's own plant. Yes, but a |
plant run for ten years depreciates
in value. But We will keep il in
repairs. Yes, but the repairs of a
plant, run with the energy required
to produce light, twelve hours in
every twenty -four, will cost at
least 10 per cent on the money in
vested. That 10, IT will cost
