mates Of the county officials, the fol-
lowing items suffered: County agri-
cultural agent postponed another

from $4,000 to $4,000; appropriation

Appropriations for the Main street
bridge and the tuberculosis hospital
were completely ignored by the coun-
Gil because Of the stressed condition
of the finances.
Last year the county tax levy was
48 cents on the $780, OF this amount
81 $40 cents was for the general fund.
The levy for the free turnpikes of the
county was retained at 8 cents; the
bridge fund will require levy of 1
cent and the refunding of the court
house bonds will require 7-cent levy.
There was no recognition of the
Main street bridge or the tuberculosis
hospital In the budget of expenses for
next year.
"Fhe disturbed business conditions
and the fact that the farmers have
lost good deal of money this sum
mer on account of wheat said Lee
Nusbaum, president of the council,
makes 1t necessary for US to cut the
estimates down to the bone. We have
increased the levy three cents because

this we have eliminated over $4,000
\ Arrange for Bridge.
The condition of the South Side
Bridge fund was the srbject OF con.
siderable comment at the meeting this
morning. It was found that 1t would
be possible to have all OF the money
which was borrowed from the fund, in
1913 for the repair of bridges washed
out during the flood, paid back into
the fund by December, 1917. It would
then be possible to begin the bridge.
In order to make this. possible, the
council made the additional ref,inding
appropriation this morning.
With state levy OF 10 1-10l cents,
the total rate Of the state and county

The county tax levy for 1916. will be
81 $40 cents on the 800, which is an
increase of 3 cents over the present
rate. ..' ..
Although the council clipped off
$36,S42.50 from the original estimates
of the county commissioners, it was
found that it would be impossible to
run the county affairs next year with
out an increase in the rate. The two
chief items which affect the rate next
year are the appropriations for the
election, which amounts to $4,000, and
for the refunding of $4,000 to the
South Side Bridge fund. ~
The levy was fixed by the council
after the budget amounting to $173,
932.S5 was passed. This is an in.
crease of $4,000 over the budget OF
last year. ----.~.-..~.,
Bridge Estimates Gut
In order to prevent the levy from
being raised at least six cents, it was
necessary for the council to clip from
the budget all of the estimates fol
bridges to be built next year. Eight
bridges, on which plans and specifica
tions have been made, were cut from
the budget.
The following bridges will not be
built next year as was planned: The
Mitchell bridge over Nolan's fork
$4,000; Clemens bridge, northeast OF
Williamsburg, $3.50; Austin culvert on
National road, 800; Abbott's bridge
in Dalton township, $3.50; Abingdon
bridge, north OF Arlington, $1,000; fill
at approaches of Doddridge bridge
$1,000; fill at approaches of McGrew
bridge, $4,000; Williams and William
son bridge, $3.50.
II these bridges had been included
on the budget, it would have been nee
essary to increase the levy three cents
on the hundred dollars, making the
total levy IS cents. In view OF the
fact that it will be impossible for the
commissioners to build these bridges
next year. 1t was thought wise by the
councilmen to increase the appropria.
ton for bridge repairs from $4,000
which was the commissioners esti
mate. to $4,000. This money will en-.
able the commissioners to place the
bridges In repair for. another year.

If Mayor Robbins Interpretation OF
the 1870 ordinance was authoritative.
which several local attorneys say it is
not, then the mayor would. until thu
ordinance was repealed, be deprived
OF all authority to remove any appoint
tive officer without the consent Of

In discussing his message. from the
throne. the mayor also furnished con.
siderable amusement to council by de-
claring that the dairy inspector had
nothing to do with the inspection OF
places handling food products. He
pointed out that the ordinance Great
ing the office Of dairy inspector pro-
vided that the only duties of that Of
ficial we're to inspect dairies, and that
another ordinance provided the inspec-
ton of foodstuffs devolved upon the
sealer of weights and measures
What Mayor Missed.
The mayor, however, neglected to
refer to the fact that when Dr. Glen
was appointed there was a perfect un-
derstanding that DR.. Glen should in
spect both dairies and establishments
handling food products; that he should
serve as veterinarian for the city
horses, and as city chemist in the
event a municipal laboratory was pro-
vided.
Neither did he mention that no as
signment was given the sealer Of
weights and measures to take uD food
inspection work until a complaint had
been made to the mayor that Dr. Glen
had been neglecting this work, then
the sealer of weights and measures
was instructed to conduct food in
spections south of Main street; and
to compensate that official for the ad-
ditional work imposed upon him he
was relieved of the duty Of doing
janftor work at the market house.
Mayor Robbins in speaking to coun-
Gil also slyly opposed the scoring Of
dairies. although he had advocated in
his message an ordinance amendment

dairies and publicity of all scores.
Where He Erred.
IF you score and make public the
gradings of dairies. why not apply the
same method to groceries, meat mar
kets, restaurants and other places?"
the mayor asked. He failed to take
into consideration the fact that the
public is well acquainted with con-
ditions existing at such establish
ments, but that the public seldom has
the opportunity of visiting the dairies
where they secure their milk supply.
and are dependent upon the dairy In
spector for information as to the sani-
tary condition Of such places.
The mayors suggestions were re-
ferred to the ordinance committee
without discussion.

Acceptance of Roads by
County Enables Advisory
Board to Make Reduction
on Highway Fund.

A reduction of five cents on the
hundred dollars will be made on the
township tax levy for next year. The
advisory board of the township trus-
tees met Tuesday afternoon and rec
commended this reduction as compared
with the estimates of the township
trustee. The total tax levy for the
township is now $1.05 on the 500.
Because of the fact that next year
several of the Wayne township roads
will be taken over by the county, it
was. found possible to reduce the
levy for additional road improvement

ten to five cents on the hundred dol

FARMERS OF THE COUNTRY HAVE AN IN
TEREST IN THE TARIFF.

In appealing for cooperation in its efforts TO
open a grand channel for the bringing of Central
and South American cattle duty free into this
country. the New Orleans Association of Com
merce appears 10 have missed its purpose and
sounded n warning instead. "By working for an
expansion of this business, the valley will work
on its own interest recites circular letter sent
broadcast by the association, referring to trial
shipment Of six thousand head now under way.
Naively pointing out the danger, the letter says
that under ideal conditions and the lowest direct
freight rate" there may be imported hundreds
Of thousands Of Central and South American
cattle"
All Of which doubtless sounds like excellent
business enterprise to the Eastern packers who
are behind the experiment, but has sinister ring
TO the cattlegrowers Of the country. Il brings
home clearly to the farmer that the tariff Is not
a matter Of exclusive interest 20 citizens of the
coast states. His appreciation Of the activities
of the democratic administration In removing the
protective duty will be considerably sharpened

and Chicago y to be made on the basis of 'hun-

The bars the tariff tinkerers attempted 10 let
down heretofore have been held in place by the
bureau OF animal industry, seeking TO prevent the
introduction Of the cattle tick and various dis
eases prevalent in the districts from which the
shipments would originate. Pressure from the
Eastern packers and nearsighted New Orleans
enthusiasts has been so exerted through demo-
cratic officials that this safeguard Is about 10 be
waived, however, and the first consignment Is
due 10 arrive within a fortnight
The urban consumer, who sees in the demorali-
zation Of the domestic cattle market prospec-
tive lowering of the cost Of living, is reminded
that for this purpose the tariff was also removed
from dressed beef. Great shipments have since
arrived continually from Argentina, while the
retail price of meat has steadily climbed. The
New Orleans Association Of Commerce has per-
formed useful service.
The farmer is reminded that he has personal
interest IN the tariff and likewise that in 1916
he will have an opportunity TO give vigorous ex-
preston to II.

NEWSPAPERS ARE ALWAYS PROMINENT.
LY IN THE FRONT RANK.

The outstanding feature during the recent con-
vention Of the Advertising Clubs of the World at
Chicago the prominent part taken by the
newspapers. This is, of course, as it should be,
ing, for, while newspapers have always been
boosting some person or party or thing, they do
not often get such well merited opportunity to
boost themselves.
The press of the country seems in the begin
ming TO have decided that this convention offered
a real opportunity to "show them. and in ac-
cordance with this decision the newspaper dele
cation to the convention was among the largest
not alone in size, but also in Importance.
The convention served well TO bring out the
vast importance Of the daily and weekly press in
the affairs of the nation. This applies not only
TO business affairs. e.. advertising-bu to all
other phases of the nations activity. Figures
were presented showing that the business men of
the country are spending annually 1925. 900, 900
on advertising In the newspapers. You can't fool
the business man, and If he thinks II is worth his
while TO spend this vast sum In newspaper adj
vertising IL Is a sure sign that such advertising
Is well worth the money involved.
Newspaper advertising is today at the highest
point Il has ever reached, and II Is climbing stea
Oily. The reasons are twofold. First Of all, the
business man has come TO recognize the news
paper as the best medium. and. secondly, the
newspaper publishers themselves have come TO
realize the responsibility which rests upon them
In accepting this vast sum for advertising They
have cleaned hOuse-they are still cleaning
house--in their advertising as well as in their
news columns. Honesty" has become their
watchword.- The faker, the schemer and other
proponents Of underhanded business methods are
being kept out Of the columns Of the newspaper
so that the honest business man may enter.
Newspaper publishers. large and small. are now
evincing desire TO cooperate with the adver-
tiser 10 show him how very much more merit
there is in newspaper advertising than in any
other.
A wave of business sense Is sweeping away
the out Of date methods Of the newspaper office.
The country" publisher has Joined hands with
his larger brother Of the city and Is determined
TO drive away the free space pirate, the rate cut
ter and all others who will not do business in n
business way. This applies particularly 10 the
rate cutter who finds his way into the adverts-
ing columns Of such country papers as have not
entire control over themselves. In other words,
the "all home print" principle is growing greater
every day. This Is entirely In accord with the
spirit Of the times. The day is rapidly approach
ing when every country publisher" will say
what goes into his paper and what does not. And
when II does go in he will be paid for Il.
That day will see the sum now spent on news
paper advertising multiplied many fold.

have taken a solemn oath that they viii never
