strUctCd BY Council.

As predicted in this paper last week.
the city's books Will be audited by ex-
perts and new ana more simplified
set opened. At meeting of the
council last night. the finance commit
Tee recommended such a course and,
after but little discussion, the coun-
ell voted to leave the matter to the
committee with power to act.
The committee reported that it had
received an offer from Bland K Will
son, the experts from Spokane, who
have Just finished auditing the county
books. by which they agreed to audit
the old books and open up the new
for SIS a day and expenses. Inas-
much as ths present sygtem Of book
keeping employed by the city is rec
ognized as incomplete and inadequate,
the council was unanimous in favor
ing the action recommended.

4 the council an invitation from A.

There is a hue and cry being raised

There is hue and cry being raised
throughout Kentucky for the revision
of the system of taxation in vogue,
and the placing of the taxing system
upon an equitable basis; and that Ken
lucky is tax ridden state there is no
doubt, but there is an evil existing in
Kentucky far greater than the tax evil
and one which it is within the power of
her people to rsSnedy, namely the In
surahce evil. Kentucky is at the mercy
of the Insurance Combine. The in
surance companies doing business in
the state have worked their own sweet
will with those who were compelled to
carry fire protection, demanding rates
in many instances that were almost
prohibitive, and because of the want of
adequate laws it has been impossible to
remedy this state of affairs. However,
an effort is now under way which tends
toward providing a remedy; the Louis
vile Board of Trade has appointed a
special Insurance Committee, which
committee will endeavor to have the
coming session of the Kentucky Gener-
al Assembly pass such laws as will en-
able the state to regulate insurance
rates, and to give to the people of this
state an equitable table of insurance
rates, compel them, if they desire to do
business in this state, to afford US pro-
lection for the same premiums which
are paid in other states where laws ex-
list regulating their rates.
In the state of Missouri they have a
law requiring that only reasonable rates
shall be charged and that only reason
able rates shall be lawful. Lancaster
is classed by the companies doing bust
ness in Kentucky as. being in class
number Four and one half, and we give
herewith a tabulation of the rates
charged for dwellings in Kentucky in
towns in that class. where we have no
legal regulation as to the rates, and a
table of charges in Missouri towns in
the same class where there is regula-
ton placed on their rates.

RESIDENTS DISPLAY ENTHUSIASM At
VISIT OF DEMONSTRATION TRAIN
Efforts of Railroad and Agricultural
College Appreciated by People of
Gillian and Wheeler Counties.

The demonstration train ar
rived in this city at an early
hour on Tuesday morning. The
farmers for miles around were
also OIL hand in the early MORN
ing. When the lectures started
at eight o'clock there were pre-
sent between two and three hun
dred and the later arrivals SWELL
ed the total attendance to almost
four hundred. Sc, eral lectures
were under way at the same
time and to say that the interest
was great is putting it mildly for
the lectures were intently listen
ed to and the knowledge given
out was received with apparent
appreciation. After the lectures
those present were requested to
ask questions which they did,
questions of almost everything
in agricultural lines which might
apply to this section. In regard
to the meeting the Oregonian
has the following to say:
No doubt the people of this
entire section are up against a
hard proposition. For three
years their hopes of a wheat crop
have been blasted. For those
three years the precipitation has
been less than 10 inches, in some
sections only z inches
