MAYOR PAULK VETOES
SALARY ORDINANCE

The salary ordinance passed by
the council at its regular meeting
on January 18th failing to pro-
vide for bonding officers elected,
as provided by the charter and
because the salary of the chief of
police was fixed inadequately in
the judgment of the Mayor, Mr..
Paulk gave the following reasons,
in, writing in filing his objections
to the ordinance:
my first objection to said Or
dinance is that it does not carry
with it the requirement of a bond
for all the officers set forth as
provided and required by the
Charter of the City of Fitzgerald
in the section above quoted, as
you will note by reference to
same. You will readily see the
necessity of complying with such
Charter enactment for the reason
that the Police officers of the
City of Fitzgerald and other Of
ficers handle funds of the said
city annually, aggregating sever
al thousand dollars, and the re-
quirement Of bond of the officers
is a safeguard to protect the in
terest of the tax payers of the
City of Fitzgerald against any
Of the funds of
said city.
! further object to the salary
fixed for the Chief of Police in
said ordinance for the reason
that I think thatit is entirely in.
adequate and out of keeping with
our progressive city. I think
that said salary should be made
at least the full amount of $780,
90 per month as allowed by the
Charter Of our city inasmuch as
a great deal of responsibility is i
placed upon this officer, as is
shown by reference to the Char
ter of the City Of Fitzgerald. and
in order for him to keep abreast
with the times and conduct him
self as he should it will be neces-
sary to pay him that amount,
which in my judgment is small,
taking into consideration what is
of the Chief of Police
of the City Of Fitzgerald at this
time.
With the best intel 4sts of the
City of Fitzgerald at heart I re-
specially submit my objections
and reasons for entering my veto
to said Salary Ordinance, and
ask your conscientious consider
alton of the same. that the law
of the City may be III every way
followed, and the majesty of the
same upheld for the protection
and rights of the citizens and
tax payers of our city,"

FALL BUSINESS BETTER Fall Business Exceeds Expectations. Dun's Weekly Review Says.

New York, Oct. 2.-Dun's review today says:
 Success of the foreign loan nego- tiations fcTeshadows a further eXten- sion of American enterprises and en- phasizes the position occupied by this country in international finance.
 With constructive factors multi plying, prospects steadily brighten. and actual gains in business are now more in keeping with optimistic senti- ment.
 Almost without exception reports from the large centers tell of accumu- lating evidence of progress, and only in isolated cases, such as in the lum- Der trade, is depression still manifest.
 Development of fall business is ex- ceeding exceptions fin some quarters, and expanding requirements are fea, ture in the dry goods market which are buoyant in response to the rapid rise in raw cotton.
 lhcuSh the dyestuffs shortage continues handicap, the textile sit, nation generally shows distinct im- provemaAt.
 Pressure on the steel mills is so great the producers are chiefly con ccrned with the problem of makins deliverings, conditions in this respect being further complicated by the re cent rush of railroad equipment o. ders.
 "The industrial boom is not al-0e confined to the East: it has spre; to the West and Scath, and in the ,tter secuoh manufacturing plants which have been idle for years are rerqmine.

BORDER PEACE
 UP 70 CARRANZA

 tiOn on Other Side.

1 Brownsville, Tex, Oct. 3-Peace
 along the lower Rio Grande frontier depends almost wholly on the action of the Carranza authorities in stopp-
 ing the unrestricted use of the Mexi- can side of the river as a refuge from pursuit and justice. This was the Cp- inion of American army officers to- day. It was based on reports reach

 1 Week of Quiet.
 Today completed the first consecu-
 tive week since July without either
 raid by MeXicans on Texas ranches
 or skirmishes across the Rio Grande
 river between MeXicans and Ameri- can soldiers. Reports to army officers indicated that virtually all the MeXi-
 can roaders have for the present been 1 forced across the Flo Grande. Re ports from Carranza authorities in MatamOrGs admitted the presence of nearly 100 of these raj lers on the Mexican side Unless the CarranZa soldiers attack these bandits officers here believe that hunger, shortage of money and lack of equipment will soon force them back across the river lon new raids.
 With nearly 5000 American troops constantly under arms awaiting such lnvasions every raid seems likely to develop a fight which will be carried to the international line if the bandits follow the usual tactics of retreat. and every fight across the boundary lntensifies the enmity against the Am ericans which for weeks has been spreading in northeast Mexico as a re- suit of the outbreaks.
 Feeling Against Americans.
 An American returning today from periodical trip through that section reported that feeling against Ameri- cans appears to be growing somewhat ugly.
 Announcement today by General E.
 r. Nafarrate at Matamoros that new Carranza commander is coming to handle the border situation on the Mexican side and that Carranza off cers are locating the hiding places of bandits, while it relieved the tension somewhat on the American side, was

Water Power Sites and Pumping.

Your Uncle Samuel has withdrawn from entry a considerable
portion of land down in Townships % and "a, and maybe a little in
20, in Ranges %, "a and SO North. Uncle Sam is going to make a
power site by damming the Platte where the river goes through the
Semino mountains. Like dozens of other water power sites of Uncle
Sam, they will probably wait until the time of the kingdom come be-
fore Sam or any one else will ever turn a stone in construction.
Down in the eastern part of the state Uncle Sam and some CAPT.
al ID looking for a chance to pump water from the North Platte river
to irrlgate some land, which at best will be expensive. Uncle is now
preparing to build the almost impossible Goshen Unite of the Path
hinder project while all the time this great Saratoga valley could be
irrigated with one-tenth of the money and time-better land, better
power and everything being passed up like a "white chip" We
have said 1t a thousand times and we say it again that the cheapest,
best irrigation project that lays out of doors today is the Saratoga
valley There are more acres here, with the best damite in the
world at the head of it, with the simplest construction in the world,
being passed up WHYP That is the question, and we wish some
one would answer it.
When Capital and Uncle Sam spend their time looking for
pumping propositions and projects that will cost $500 to $500 per
acre to irrigate when the land in this valley will yield twice the ag-
ricultural products and would cost 1875 per acre or whereabouts. We
wonder WHY Answer this question and we will buy you a bag of
peanuts.

1t was true! The Great Western
Flyer was snowbound and on Christ
mas Eve! Peter Hunt, 80 years old
and alone in the world, sat up in his
berth and looked out at the silver
white hills. The strange part of 1t
was that he didn't care. He had de-
inerately decided to spend Christmas
