The Republican press OF the
state are still passing over in ST.
lence, the payment of that two
hundred thousand dollar state bond
which will be made July 4th.
They do not attempt any explana-
ton as to how the Hodges admin
istration could take one hundred
and sixty thousand dollars out OF
the revenues of 1913 and 1914, to
apply on the state debt when it
took the Republican administra-
ton ten years to accumulate sew
enty eight thousand dollars. 1t is
fair to assume that, there is no ex-
PLANTATION except that the Hodges
administration has been spending
less money than the Republican
administration to rrn the state,
for it is certain that the Hodges
administration has had less rev.
snue. If there was any other ex-
PLANTATION, our readers may be sure
that the Republican press would
lump on to it with both feet.
The Press Bureau may bea lit
tie persistent in calling attention
to this matter, but when we get
a fellow in corner, we like to do
a good job of hammering.

THE AMERICAN TOWN.

People are familiar with the ten.
dcncy of populstio to leave N" cOuu-
try and crowd the cities They are
less COnversant with the fact that
towns in recent years have been losing
inhabitants even more rapidly than the
open country.
The point was Cmpha sized at a re-
cent lumbermen's convention. II was
shown that in nine States nearly 1000
towns had lost population during the
last census period. while the popula-
tion OF the whole country was increas-
ing u per cent. OF the ~ county
seats in these nine States, 2l7 lost in
spite of the advantages these govern
mental centers have over their rivals
in the gathering of people.
Strangely enough. as the figures show.
the decline of towns was most marked
in the richest sections Of these nine
States. Ohio was one of the nine and
here LIED towns found their population
diminished. while the State itself was
forging ahead and the country as a
whole was expanding 10y leaps and
bounds.
