For 80 street lights the total oper-
ating cost was $S7.36. Adding to
this the interest charged and proper
allowance for depreciation, the total
cost was S1,237,36 or, $41.25 per
light. For the same service by
private company New Athens would
have been obliged to pay from $50
to $75 per light. This would have
made a total of from $500 to So

Presidents Salary to be $4,000.

Washington, Feb. 24.-After de-
feating the proposition to make the
presidents salary 100000, the
house this afternoon adopted an
amendment fixing it at $75,000
The amendment was offered by
Representative Watson (R), Indi-
ana.
Heretofore the president has bad
an allowance of $4,000 a year for
railway expenses. This will not be
included in the White House allow
ance hereafter. The increase in
salary, therefore, leaves the presi-
dents income practically the same
as before.
The house also rejected the SEN
ate amendment to increase the
speakers salary to $4,000 per year.
The vote was 154 to IA.
Watson then moved to further
amend the senate amendment by
inserting provision that the $75,-
600 salary shall include travelling
expenses. This also was carried.
The senate amendments are for
increases of salary for the president,
vice-president, speaker, chief justice,
justices of the supreme court of the
United States and district and cir
cult judges and also the provision
for a carriage and horses for the
vice-president.

Rev. Brown is Six Months Late
with His Kick.

The righteous soul of the Word
And Way" a most excellent religi-
GUS journal published by Rev.
Brown at Kansas City, is greatly
disturbed because of the follow
ing associated press dispatch from
Atlanta. Ga.
"President-elect Taft danced all
night to break of daylight, and he
didn't go home till morning." is
what the society folks of Atlanta
are saying of President-elect Taft
today They are telling the truth,
for at 2 o'clock Sunday morning
Mr.. Taft was Waiting in the Capt.
tai City clubroom with Mrs. Rob-
ertS Maddox, wife of Atlanta's
mayor. Mr.. Taft's train was to
leave at midnight for Augusta, but
at that hour he requested that the
train be held 50 that he might en-
joy a few more waltzes."
The Couriers opines that Rev.
Brown has no kick coming. The
first day of the week owes its
sanctity to Jesus the Christ. Taft
does not believe in the divinity of
Christ, hence all days look alike to
him. The Christian people of this
nation understood all of this before
the election. And knowing it all
they chose Taft president and now
it's nobody's business if Taft dances
all day Sunday. Brother Brown il

Amusing.

1t is rather amusing to pick up
almost any newspaper these days
and read the advice given to farm
ers telling them how to select seed
corn, by men who hardly know a
corn field from a cotton field. The
average farmer knows more about
seed corn in a minute than these
town farmers KNOWN a month, But
Just now it seems to be a sort of
fad for the newspaper farmer to
tell the real farmer how to farm
successfully. Paris Appeal.
Friend Jack, when the planting
time comes it is too late for you, |,
or Mr., Farmer to properly look
after and secure the best seed corn.
And Jack. don't you know that
different varieties of corn are like
different wheats, not suitable for all
soils? No Jack, the time to con-
denim roads is not when you are
stuck in the mud, but before
the hole is in the road to get stuck
in. Corn and road talk is always
and will always be in order until
the farmer forgets dads methods
and studies his soil and his seed
corn, just as road talk will always
be in order, as long as hearSeS stick
in the mud near Paris as it did at
the w. H. Beirly funeral last week.
The Democrat has handled and
talked corn practically all of its life
and the editors did so years before
the birth of the Democrat and will
continue to do so to the end.
