The Ford automobile has been

The Ford automobile has been
reduced in price, taking effect
Aug. 1st. The touring car, sold
last year by the local agent, A.
T. Whit, at $40, is now sold by
him at $500; the runabout, which
sold at 1890, is down to $345.
This reduction in price will
enable many to now buy a car
that before felt that the price
was too steep for them. A per-
son caunot buy a good horse and
buggy for the price of an auto.

of the horse rig will exceed that
of the automobile. Another re.

There seems to be no end of
conflicting leases in the oil terri
tory in this and adjoining coun-
ties. Oil men will take second
leases, we are informed, on val
liable territory, then fight the
matter through the courts for
possession. This brings no end
of litigation and as a result the
lawyers are living fat. Some say
it is difficult to find a lawyer over
at the Estill capital that is not
loaded down with oil practice.
This is one way of the people
getting the title to their lands
Strengthened out and at no ex-
pense to themselves. And at the
same time reap a nice little for
tune in royalties from the oil
producing wells now rapidly be-
ing sunk on the land.

Sheriff Derickson has advertis-
ed to begin collecting taxes on
Hardwick's Greek August IA.
OF course he will ask for the bond
issue tax too. These Hardwick's
Creek people are a bunch that
must be shown. They are pretty
apt to say: "Show US the road
and we will show you the tax"
They are Missourians in this re-
spect. 1t would be pleasure to
all to pay road tax if We could
see half as much effort on the
part of the powers that be to get
the roads promised as there is
manifest to keep the people from
getting these roads even at their
own expense.
