so democracy, despite Macaulay's
predictioH. stili lives In America.
But perhaps the historian over
looked one fact Perhaps he failed
to take into account that democracy
does no, live by breakfast alone, but

TRACTION LINE.
Promoters Of New Industry Seek
FRANCHISE 10 Sell Electricity
FOR Power
AND HEATING PURPOSES

The much-talked-of interurban
line between jacksonville and
Nortonville now seems a certain
ty, according to James Breathitt
who is representing the Madi.
sonville & Nortonville Light,
Power & Traction Co., who spent
several days in the city last week
in the interest of the line.
AT first the company stated
that the road would be built pro-
vided the Madisouville Light
plant could be secured, which
would then give the traction
company the right to furnish the
lights aud power for the city.
The board of public works stated
that the plant was not for sale
at ANY price. However, the
com pany realized that the line
from this city to Nortonville
would be a money making prop
ositIon. 1t is now proposed to
have the city offer for sale a
franchise which will permit of
selling electricity for ''power,
heating and manufacturing pur-
poses,n which is to be drawn up
by the city attorney and sold at
an early date. h
Surveyors are now in the field
going over the proposed route
aud it is believed that in the
event the franchise is granted
actual work will begin within
the next three months.
