There is no question but that Haskell

was so bitter against him. Right from

there was little chance for Pueblo to

Tax Rate

The City Council, at an adjourned
meeting held last Monday evening fixed
the tax rate at s125. This is an advance
over the past year of five cents and in
order that the taxpayers may know why
the increase was made the following ex-
PLANTATION is made:
The council appropriated the sum Of
100000 to be paid on an old debt that
has been running for twenty years and
which interest has been paid annually
at the rate of per cent. This appro-
priation will half pay the debt leaving
the balance to be liquidated next year.
The Board of Education, in the budget
submitted to the Council, asked for
5000. 90 more than was called for from the
city last year. This was caused by the
Board of Education making some neces-
sary repairs on the old school buildings
which were not included in the contract
for the erection of the additions to the
city schools. With thissitem and that
of the Richmond National Bank debt
liquidated, the tax rate can be reduced
TO point lower than it has been for
several years and still furnish ample
means TO carry on the business of the
CITY.

SENATOR PAINTER has Withdrawn
from the race for United States Senator.
His name will remain on the ballot but
he has asked his friends not 10 vote for
him. This leaves a clear field to the
honorable Ollie James Senator Payn-
ter's decision 10 Withdraw is a wise one,
viewed from either a personal or party
standpoint. We believe that he could
not have won the race against Mr..
James. The Democracy Of Kentucky is
in no frame Of mind TO cast its ballots
for a Lorimer supporter or sympathizer.
We doubt not that Mr.. Paynter was sin
.cere in his support Of Lorimer and we
respect and honor him for having the
courage Of his convictions, but we be-
lieye his judgment was wrong. The
press Of the State, regardless OF its opin-
ion Of Senator Paynter's candidacy, will
sympathize with him in the protracted
and serious illness Of four different men,
