psraqould Will continue scrIp.

Paragould.-Paragould's dream Of paying cash as she goes has been ruth lessly shattered. A large number of parties who serve the public and are large holders of city script have refus- ed to reduce their bills 9 cents on the dollar. It was intended to pay all city officials and others in cash instead of script, the latter being worth only about 60 cents on the dollar, and to re- duce bills about 9 per cent and salaries about 25 per cent, thus saving to the city from 15 to 25 per cent on all bills paid. Since the public serving institutions have refused to reduce their bills to a cash basis of 75 cents on the dollar, Mayor Mack and his advisory committee have decided to let the city stay on scrip basis for the present.
