Mondays Daily.)


The delegation from the board OF
mayor and aldermen which went to
Decatur, Ala, to examine the Ameri-
en- LaF'rance fire fighting apparatus
have returned. and appear to have
been much impressed by what they
saw. The motor and it's equipment
were satisfactory in every particular,
and it's emchanism was pronounced
up-to-date in every respect
Mayor Skeggs and Fire Chief J. s.
Acker took special pleasure in show
ing off their new apparatus, and ap-
peared to be proud of it. Mayor
Skeggs stated that it was matter
of much civic pride, that the citizens
of the city felt that the council were
doing something for the protection of
it's citizens when they made invest
ments in such progressive machin-
cry.
The party was taken on a spin
around the city on board the truck,
and it moved with steadiness and
fprecision, taking the street car tracks
at all angles, in manner that was
surprising to the Columbians.. The
chief stated that since the installa-
ton of the new apparatus February
1 of this year, that at least rs per
cent of his calls were handled with
out throwing water; that at no time
had his engine ever failed to work
and that inclines and grades cut no
figure in the speed with which the
calls were answered. The machine
has been in service six months and
while the Alabama law requires that
horses and horse drawn trucks be
kept where only one motor truck is
in esrvice, the horse drawn truck
has not been used more than three or
four times, and this only because he
thought it prudent from the location
of the calls to have all the possible
facilities at his command.
The party consisted of R. s. Blanc,
the representative of the company,
Mayor Dedman, and Aldermen For
gey, Cherry and Akin, and w. P. Err
win and Fire Chief Ritter.
Members Of the party have now
seen the Pope-Hartford and the
American LaFrance, and will doubt
less come to some decision in the
matter within the next twenty-four
to forty-eight hours. Clarence Fry,

what YOU like in the paper. But
don't forget that what you ap-
preciate may be despised by
others, and that what you de-
spise may be appreciated by
others. The editor and the
landlady are in the same boat,
so to speak, with a chaperon,
of course. and it certainly does
make them tired to have to cater

his more or less important taste.

BY that means each vendor IL
pltted against the other as to
prices. Quality being equal, the
man who cuts the price the low
est gets the award. Ii can thus
be readily seen that in instances
the difference between a cash
payment at the time due and
payment with a warrant that can
be transferred into cash only at
a discount, may make the differ
ence between a contract upon
which a profit is made and one
resulting in loss. The state GER
tainly does not want to defraud
its citizens. II is dangerously
near that position if honorable
and legitimate means are at hand
to pay its debts, and it does not
adopt such means.
If the state should deliberately
strike four per cent from all its
liabilities, the action would be
denounced from border to border.
When creditors are forced need
lessly 10 discount their warrants
that much. there is little to dis
tinguish the course.
If the situation cannot be help
ed there is nothing to do but
make the best Of it, but it is re-
ported that the banks are willing
to cash state treasury warrants
at their face value and charge
the state interest on such war
rants so paid from the time each
warrant is paid by the bank until
the state treasury has funds to
redeem II. As these warrants
are practically sure 10 be paid
within eight months, a banking
arrangement Of this sort at siS
per cent would in effect cost the
state Just exactly what the
creditors are now paying for the
state by discounting their war
rants. That the burden should
be shifted TO the state where il
belongs seems but reasonable. e.
