THE REASON APPARENT.

AT the urgent request of a
number of the tax payers of
West Liberty we asked the board
of trustees for o statement of the
fiscal affairs of the town for pub
LEGATION. In response to this re-
quest we were Informed that
there was no fluids in the city ex-
chequer with which to pay for
the publications of said statement.
The reason for this state of
affairs is notsfar to seek. Dur
ing the dressing up, or the dress
ing down as the case may be-
of the streets last fall, a team
was engaged and paid for at
$500 per day.
1t was a big fpurty" team al
right, and did credit to any street
upon which it might work, but
$500 per day is a purity" big
price to pay for a team and driv-
err without any other accessories.
But the thing was done alright,
so therel Now il Won taXnavers
who are Prescriptions enough to
want to know how your money
is spent, desire further informa.
ton you will have to ask the city
dads. 1t is not to be supposed
that they have anything to con-
ceal, but so long as there are big
Stalled teams to be had at $500
a day it's none Of your business,
anyhow.

The SAVING HABIT.

Teach your children the saving
habit. Give them something
they would delight to call their
own and show them how to care
for it properly and make it yield
an increase. Many a boy has
been kept ona farm by giving
him a pig or calf when he was
small and letting him enjoy the
usufruct thereof. . A boy will
take more pride in that which he
produces by his own labor than
he will in something that comes
to him without effort. Give the
boys and girls a chance. Learn
ing by doing" is the learning
that stays with the child and
yields a dividend when he be-
comes a man.

If the people of Morgan coun-
ty were thoroughly awake to their
own interests they would realize
that the advertisements found in
the COURIER are worth many
times more than the price of the
paper. This has always been
true since the COURIER was es-
tablished but after the first of
January, 1913, the ads which we
carry will be worth still
more to our readers. The par
GELS post law will come into OPP
GRAFTON at that time and if the
tight-wad home merchants don't
keep what the people want and
let them know, through system
attic advertising, that they have
it, why then they (the people,
can get their goods from a mail
order house much more quickly
and cheaply than they formerly
could. The merchant who is
wise will profit by the parcels
post law, but he must use print
ers ink. to do it, The rural
dweller who is wise will also be
benefited by the parcels post law,
but he will have toread his coun-
ty paper in order to keep pos
ted. .

WISDOM WARPED.

Judge A. M. j. Cochran's gra-
tuitous little spiel THAT proba-
bly, there will not be any railroad
property to assess now that Will
son is in" coming, as it did, from
the bench, enables the public to
take the correct measure of the
man. Judge Cochran will be so
damned mad if the democrats
don't bring on a panic that he
will probably resign. Ye Gods!
What calamity that would be.

time to begin taking stock, as it
were, making an inventory of
what we have accomplished dur

Footing up the results. Of our
good resolutions made at the be-
giningof 1912. Asking ourselves
whether we have had the cour-
age to dare and to do what we
purposed at that time-if our
good deeds outweigh our bad
ones, and if our acts for the bet
terment of mankind have been
equal to our opportunities.
Let us get throughmaking our
inventory in time to begin the an
nual job of forming new resolu-
tons.

RAISE. HOES.

don't turn their attention more
to hog raising. 1t is a safe bet
that not enough meat will be
killed in the county this fall to
do the people until the first of
March, There are 1000 families
in the county that will each buy
on an average, $25 90 worth of
beef, pork and bacon the first
half of the year 1918, a total of
$50,0OO.0O which will go out of
the county in six months and
which ought, by all means, to be
kept at home.
!. NOTE THIS COMPARISON:
The taxes paid by the citizens
of Morgan county for the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1912,
amounted to approximately $751;
900. Deduct $37, 900 from $780,
900 and you have $3.50
Thus you see our people pay to
Armour & Co., Swift & Go. and
other packing houses, in six
months, $13, 900 more than they
pay in taxes, to the county and
state, in twelve months.
Isn't this a pretty state of af-
fairs? Double the $13, 1000 and
you have $4,000, the amount
paid in one year, and these fig
ures are conservative. | am not
indulging in guess work nor wild
speculation.
Now let us look, for a moment,
upon the other side Of the can
vass. Suppose each of the heads
of the 1000 families had raised
their own meat, they could not
only have paid their own taxes,
but could have paid the entire as.

Not always, necessarily. 1t is

When a sweet young girl" with
1 complexion over which you
nave raved, and witha form that
S Juno-like in appearance, snug
giles up to you under the sub

But when you feel that the form

Uneasy lies the heads of the

combined influence Of all of the
democratic Congressman, heart
lily supported by their constit-
uents,. will be brought to bear on
Gov. Wilson to have him rescind
Mr.. Taft's order placing fourth

1t would be an injustice to the

kissing" Hobson has again
shown that man who has judg-

pretty woman is alright. He
has introduced a bill in Congress
providing for a national survey
of highways, When Hobson
sank the Merrimac in Santiago
harbor, made a lecture tour over
the country, kissed all the pretty
women he met and was elected
to Congress, / decided that there
was some class in him and have
kept an eye on him and observed
that he is all to the good and is

over measures that the people
need and want.
