airy says that Taft is sore at the Hoos-

not sore at the Hoosiers. In view of
the confusion there, 1t will perhaps be
necessary to write to Mr.. Taft and
find out whether or no he is really
sore.

To Sprinkle the Streets.

Mayor John G. Burns is trying to
make an arrangement that will in
sure the sprinkling Of Louisa's
streets during the summer, and his
efforts should meet with hearty
support from all citizens. There is
nothing more disagreeable than fly
ing dust, and there is no good reas-
on why Louisa should suffer from
II now.
The proposition under considera-
tion is for the city to buy a sprink-
ling cart and for the citizens to
subscribe to fund for operating it.
The waterworks people propose
to erect pipe suitable for exped-
itiously filling the tank OF the
wagon. The water is already being
paid for by the city. The expense
would be light on each citizen and
the arrangement would insure uni
form sprinkling.
The sprinkling plug plan that
has heretofore existed is a failure.
About half Of the plugs are report
ed to be out of order, and If they
were all in working order it would
be impossible to cover more than
half the street area from them.
Help this good movement along.

He was standing on the east bound
