CITY COUNCIL MEETS.

VIII Build Bridge Over Wash
CreeklReduce Their Own Sal
aries-FH Tax Levy Same as
Last Year-More Water for the
Same Money-An Interesting
Session.
The Board of Commissioners of
the twin of Hendersonville held
an interesting, not to say, at
times, an exciting, meeting last.
night. Mayor Station presided.
and Messrs. Morris, Rhodes, Rec
tor, Stepp, Davis and Mcintyre
were present. 1t was a meeting
of the full board, and every mem
Der took an active part in the dis
eussions over the different propo-
sitions submitted.
Mr. F. 2. Morris introduced a
resolution to erect a bridge over
Wash creek, not to exceed in cost
over 800, and for City Engineer
Baily to draw up the necessary
plans and specifications for the
structure. The resolution was
seconded by j. Mack Rhodes, and
the discussion which followed was
warm. Just the same, however,
that discussion indicated one fact:
that the board intends to run the
city's affairs on a business basis.
The resolution was finally adopted
and the city engineer will prepare
the plans at once.
The city tax levy will remain
the same as last year although
some of the board wantedt to know
how the increased indebtedness of
the town was to be taken care of.
During the discussion it was stated
that the bonded Indebtedness of
the town was now about $4,000,
exclusive of the sidewalk bonds,
to be paid by the property owners.
Water consumers will hereafter
get more water for the same mon
ey, or 1900 gallons of sparkling
purity for the same price they pay
now for 1000 gallons, extra con-
sumption to remain at the same
figure as now.
The revised city ordinances will
be printed shortly and certain
changes were made. Automobiles
may run at a speed not exceeding
ten miles an, hour, and the police
were instructed to hold them
down to that speed. AL speed
fends will be promptly arrested.
Railroad trains must not block
the crossing at Anderson avenue
for more than five minutes, if they
do the engineer will get into
trouble.
Suitable provision was made In
the new ordinances to govern
those who attend any place of
public amusement with the idea
that they are the show and not the
performers on the stage. Any un-
seemly conduct hereafter in such
places will result in the offender
being promptly and very heavily
fined.
The board will talk to the Cor
operation Commission about put,
ting safety gates at the Anderson
crossing, where they are certainly
most badly needed. DIR. Colum.

reckless deeds in Congress ofthe.
dominant party from day to
day, challenging and defying the
public sentiment of the country
simply to swell the profits of

upon which we can proceed to
victory, surpasses and surmounts

issues and so there are. This
Republican Congress has been a
lamentable and historic failure.
Two main issues have engrossed
its attention. The railroad bill
when it was handed In to the
Senate, was IN the interest of the
great trunk line system of the
United States and against the in
terest of the shippers and the
public. Every amendment to
the measure of any popular bene-
fit whatever was procured by
Democratic members in combi-
nation with the insurgents forces
without the fear of any COLI
tradiction, that the regular or
ganization of the Republican
party cannot claim the credit
of a single change that was of
the slightest public advantage.
"The postal depository bill
has been turned and twisted from
its original shape into a dis
torted measure that does not
contain a single feature of any
public benefit. If you will look
at the Republican platform pro
missing this legislation and then
compare with it the Legislation
that has been enacted, you will
find that the one does not bear
the slightest resemblance to the
other. The intent of the original
f plan was to send the money to
the country banks and through
them to the people, but the
scheme has been so engineered
: that now neither the country
banks nor the people al avail
: themselves of it's provisions. The
e money travels away from where
it is needed to the great fnan--

youth is like the ship-ke hod to

fore his career began TO make

of MAJ Duncan is one that in
dramatic form, as written by
WincheH Smith, has attracted
the attention of thousands of
playgoers throughout the coun-
try. As novel, written by Louts
Joseph Vance, it becomes a mar
ratipe of profound appeal to the
young and old and especially to
those of as who in our youth
enough removed from the metro
politan centers to be practically
a world in itself and to itself.
Usually it is the country lad who
ventures into the great cities to
seek fortune and flames favor.
But here we find a down to date
city youth, who, a failure at ep-
erything he had undertaken. in
pades the rural districts to make
a millionaire of himself. That

charity and tolerance for the

not indicate that the people of the Lone
Star state favor prohibition or that they

when the question is submitted direct
1T seems that the people voted for
men without regard to policies. l heard
any number of men who voted for tho
prohibition candidate say that they did
not consider the prohibition question in
voting for him, but he was their per-
, sonal choice.
1T is my honest opinion that the peo-
pie of Texas will vote down the prohi.
bition proposition when 1t comes to them
direct.
II find that the people of Talladega
county are becoming very much dissatis-
fed with the present prohibition condi-
lions as they exist in that county as well
as over the state. Some of the strong
est prohibitionists in the county have be-
come disgusted or Indifferent and would
