TIP WRIGHTS COLUMN
BY Tip Wright.

Going to buy one of the $780,
200 gas buggies the manufactur-
ers will market in 1910? What's
that? Whose roof leaks?
All right, DO; but let this sink
in: The automobile which was
beyond the ordinary mans reach a
couple of years ago will average
only $1333.33 next year, and that
isn't more than a good team and
rig costs.
Manufacturers will get $780,
100000 for the 10000 carts in
1910, and If they could find more
men, machinery and material, the
public would loosen for few
more. The sum spent will be linn
tied only to the capacity of the
shops.
Manufacturers are putting out
a few $40, 900 cars, because some
of the fussy folks have to have
'em. But for every dozen there
will be thousands of medium and
low-priced cars.
This year Witnessed the advent
of the cheap car that broke the
back of the men who had an I'M
|derstanding about holding up the
price. Next year will see the
market flooded with cars selling
at from $500 to $1,000.
Runabouts for two passengers
will sell at $500; for 800 a bet
tier car can be had, and If you
want a rumble seat in addition.
Iyou can get car for $3.50; an
Iother hundred will buy a five
seated touring car. Can you beat
lit?
The cheap cars will do every
thing the high-priced machine
will except develop 60 miles an
hour. They have won their way.
The light cars have advantages.
The first cost is small, and so is
the cost of maintenance and oper-
fation. A record of 46.6 miles on
one gallon of gasoline has been
made. The average driver will
run less than a cent a mile for
gasoline, while the heavier cars
will not do much better than nine
miles per gallon of gasoline,
which costs from IL to rs cents.
Cost of tires and wear and tear
on them is reduced greatly in the
small, light cars. and the cost can
not be overlooked.
The automobile has entered ev-
cry industry, and the limitation is
only guessed at. 1t is seen on the
ranches in the southwest; rural
free delivery carriers find it bet
ter than horses; doctors extend
their radius of usefulness from 20
miles with a horse to so miles;
the farmer uses a machine to get
to and from town quickly, and the
suburbanite will find it cheaper
to keep a car than pay railway
fare.
Looking at 1t from. all angles,
the public seems to be due for an
inning. Like the bicycle, the
buzz wagon is reaching a stage
where a man on a fair salary can
buy and keep one.

Pete McVeigh. the new light
weight of Seattle, fought another
draw In the second battle of his
career, against Roscoe Taylor Sat-
urday night at Dreamland rink.
The two game lightweights put
up a slashing fight and Referee

orally approved, although Taylor
thought he should have been de-
clared winner. Roscoe did have
a shade on McVeigh, but not
enough to warrant giving him the
battle. A second battle between
the pair, over the ten-round route,
Is the proper way to settle the
question of supremacy. Such a

The trade in the grocery and

New Year was by far greater this
year than at any previous season.
Although no figures can be giT-

the dealers that business has been
enormous.
At the public market on d
street, there was at least twice as
much movement in every line as
there was last year.. The market
opened this morning with a brisk
trade and some of the New Year
stock is still being disposed Of,
although most of the stands were
cleared Friday night. 1871

CHRISTIAN COUNTY.
Wrested From the Republicans, viii
Be Democratic for Four Years.

Hopkinsville, KY, January g.
Christian County to-day passed under
Democratic rule for the first time in
its history. Every Office will be oc-
cupied by a Democrat for the coming
four years.
The new officials are: j. Walter
Knight, County Judge; R. T. Stone,
County Court Clerk; Low Johnson,
Sheriff; w. A. Radford, County Court
Clerk; A. E. Mullins, Jailer; John G.
Duffy, County Attorney; Hermand
Southall, Representative; Miss Jennie
West, Superintendent of Public
Schools; DR.. j. H. Rice, Coroner; L.
J. Harris, Assessor; H. B. Crunk, Sur
veyor. The Democrats will also con
troll the Fiscal Court by six to two.
None of the startling results of the
last election caused more widespread
comment than did the action Of Chris
tian County. This was considered
n of the Republican Gibraltars and
it always made good with a majority
for that side ranging from 800 to
1900.
Last November the majorities on
the Democratic side ranged from
$50 to 1850.
This is another case of Negroes de
serting the old partly that had fed
them on promises for over forty
years, and elected to Office Democrats
who made no promises other thar
good government and fair execution
of the law.

most a full attendance of the two
committees was present. The meeting
had been opened and discussions IN
dulged in for some time before the ar
rival of Superintendent Jones. AS
soon as he reached the building he
was cordially received and Immediate
ly began to take up his subject, speak
ing to the point and in the interest
of honest efforts, such as he knew
could be put forth by a people
who were really working for some
thing. 1t was plainly evident that
Prof. Jones, while neutral, was not
slow in encouraging the citizens in
their work and in the general plans
they had for prosecuting the same. 1t
was agreed after the superintendent
left that three speakers should be
elected from this committee: r. r.
Boyd, M. D., to the County Court; ].
G. Napier to address the City Council
and R. H. Boyd, the Board Of Trade.
Moving in these three divisions and
yet as a committee it Is expected that
the results will be so encouraging that
at least $50. 1000 will be secured. The
Committee on Location withheld It's
report on account Of the absence OF
Chairman Haynes.
