Exchange Occupies Attention.

s
Among the later arrivals was Jos
ep.s 7. Crosby, a foreign exchange
manager of the National City bank,
who has gone to Madrid with staff
of four men to look into the situation
in Spain. The question OF exchange
will first occupy their attention, it
beng the wish OF the New York bank
ers to maintain as far as possible a
favorable rate of exchange between
New York and the various centers.
The London manager of a New
York financial house explained that
this wish was due to the fact that the
largest American firms are convinced
that London will remain gepgraph-
ically the financial center and that
as heretofore most of the big opera
tions will be carried out here, but that
American money will be required to
successfully handle them. For ex-
ample, should a South American
state require money the loan will be
fioated in. London or Paris, but the
bidders will be Americans, who, hay
Ing most Of the spare money, will be
lin position to compete with those
European firms which before the war
had a monopoly Of the business.

no money spent on it last year, al
though there is rock broken, lying
right opposite almost impossible
places in the pike, and | presume, no
money is available to spread them.
would think that the Road Engineer
would be ashamed to ride through a
community that is so sadly neglected
as the one through which | am refer
ring to. The Nepton pike should have
$3.50 per year, spent upon it. There are
. bridges upon it, one about so feet
long, and the other, a small one. The
so foot bridge is getting in bad re-
pair. but l think the Road Engineers
are trying to slip the Mason county
boundary line about 2 miles north, in
this vicinity, so that they will not have
to repair this road.
next took the Mayslick and Met
calfe Mills pike, which leads towards
Ewing, and is the nearest way FOR that
part of Fleming county to come to
Maysville, but they do not come that
way, because this road has become inn
passable. The water is washing the
hills away, and there is no effort to
spend dollar on this road. There arc
some or rods of rock, which were
broken on this pike about years ago
but most of this rock has been beaten
into the earth by the traffic and now
only shows as a raised place on that
side of the road.
Mr.. 7. B. Robertson, whose farm adj
joins this pike, rode over this road
with me, and remarked, that he wanted
to show me the worst road he had seen
| told him, that it might be the worst
he had seen. but 1t certainly was not
the worst | had seen. Do you think
the taxpayers in this vicinity are sat
isfied, when on this 7-10 mile, there
was not one dollar spent on it last year,
when there should have been $125.O0?
The people of Mason county are, at
this time, very badly imposed upon
populace. They are almost goaded to
the quick, and IL am not badly mis-
taken. the movement which | am try
ing to interest taxpayers in is going to
result in organization to an end that
will mean business in the handling of
our Fiscal AFFAIRS. and not inefficiencyi
incompetency and negligence.
