that the city's finances are steadily get
ting into better shape. During the last
six months the amount Of current ex

been reduced $7571 %, leaving the
amount now outstanding $13, ,535 80.
On January ! there was outstanding on
this fund $21, ,1O7 -. The amount il
sued from January | to July | was

there was paid $l5, 5,344.23.
The water fund did not make 50 good

amount Of outstanding warrants being
noted At the beginning Of the year this
fund had outstanding $5591S5 and
there was issued in six months $500 Sc.
Within that time there was paid $I25G.-

working water fund consists Of but 30
per cent OF the gross receipts of the water
system the other 40 per cent being ap-
piled on the cost Of the pipe line to the
springs above Elberton The water fund
bears the cost Of operation Of the system
and incidental improvements, such as in
stallation Of the pumping plant at the
springs and the expense Of running it,
which at this season Of the year, when it
is kept going day and night, is heavy,

The net reduction Of indebtedness in
the two funds was $731799 in the last

WHITMAN COUNTY SCHOOLS.
More Contracts on Record Than
Ever Before at This Time.

Practically all the schools in Whitman
county are preparing to open the first
Monday in September, and most Of them
will have nine months term. This is
encouraging.
Al the present time there are more
contracts on record for teachers than
ever before in the history Of the county
at this date. Presumably every CON
tract will be filled BY the time school be-
gins. Under the new code teachers
contracting must fulfill their contracts
or forfeit the right To teach in the state
for one year. Previously by giving one
months notice they could quit. Under
the new law fewer changes in teachers
may be looked for.
In this county a larger per cent than
usual received teachers certificates. The

COLFAX CELEBRATES
THE GLORIOUS FOURTH
Patriotic and Spectacular Street
Parade Witnessed.
Literary Exercises Held in the New
Ridqeway Theater- Rains Inter-
fere but Slightly With Events Of
Day Fine Pyrotechnic Display.

The Fourth Of July celebration in Col
lax last Monday was an event long to be
remembered. Weather conditions were
not ideal, it raining a portion Of the
time, which did not interfere with the
sports, however, save the baseball game,
albeit they we're delayed at times, and
the literary exercises were held in the
Ridgeway theater instead Of under the
maple trees at the court house. ThrOngs
Of people lined the streets. They came
with their sisters, their cousins and aunts
until Main street presented truly met
ropolitan appearance.
Cofax had been prepared for the oc-
casion. Streets and buildings were dec
GRATED with flags and bunting, streamers
snluted each other in numberIess places
across Main street, and electric lights
flashed glad welcome in all directions.
1t was an en- semble OF all that was
beautiful, happy and patriotic in the
make up Of a Fourth Of July celebration
And the people drank in the inspiration,
not for one moment allowing their ardOr
to cool.
The Procession.
A lull in the rain allowed the process
sion to move, which was one Of the most
unique ever seen in COlfax. Grand
Marshal William NJ Pointer headed the
procession. Mrs. Nick Carroll, Mrs. w.
h. PalamOuntain and Mrs William M
Pointer, mounted on gaiIy caparisoned
chargers, we're assistant marshals. The
Liberty Car came next, covered with

do not think that the Herald and News
should make such sweeping state
ments about another newspaper un-
less it is willing to reprint what the
other paper has said so tnat it's read
1ers can see for themselves.
Consider this particular instance.
The Herald and News has told its
readers that the Banner has said
something that it did not say and does
not believe Not only has the Herald
and News done the Banner an injus-
tice but it has misled its own readers
to whom it owes better service 1t
seems to us that the Herald and News
should at least have printed what the
Banner actually did say and then
when it questions the truth Of our
statements its readers can compare
and judge for themselves It is a lit
tie tough to be accused of making
claims that we never made or even
dreamed of and then called a liar
even though in gentle language and
without malice
All the Banner has said. In this con
nection is that the legislature OF 1908
did quite few wise and credtable
things-probably as many as the ay-
erage legislature-along With it's sins
and. blunders. This we believe is
capable of proof. It did not do enough
