The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1917-01-30

The outstanding Indebtedness Of
Kentucky is said TO be, in pund
numbers, Ave million dollars and in
creasing at the rate of about sixty
Thousand dollars a month, with no
immediate prospect Of meeting the
Indebtedness.
Il is not unusual for a State to
owe five millions. Perhaps more
than half the states of the Union
owe more than that.
IT is the CHARACTER Of Ken
tucky's Indebtedness that irritates.
Those little interest bearing war
rants are nuisance. More than a
nuisance. A disgrace.
The present revenue laws of Ken
lucky are perfectly good laws, but
they remind one of the eat the small
boy found in an ash cana perfect
ly good cat, perfectly formed, per-
fectly colored, all right except it
had no life in it. If Kentucky's
revenue laws had some life in them
they might be all right, antiquated
though they be. They HAVE BEEN
all right. They HAVE produced
sufficient revenue to meet the re-
quirements of the State. Why NOT
nowg
Well, for one thing, nobody is put
ting life into them. The assessors
are too "easy." The county boards
of supervisors are too easy. The
state board of equalization is too
easy. Too much politics. Too
many men looking ahead for Office.
Then, for another thing. expenses
are too high. Too many Offices.
Too many commissions. Too much
Regulation" Too little choice in
the selection of officials.
As State Auditor Delaney recent
ly said of Ohio eve are living in
an age of RENTED fines, indetermi-
nate sentences, paroles, pardons, in
spections, license and permit tags,
business control, health and birth
control, all tending to increase the
cost of government and destroy dis
cjpline in both public and private
life"
We doubt the ACCESSIBILITY Of an
extra session of the Legislature to
put through new laws. Personally.
we have had neither time nor OPP
portunity to give the proposed laws
the attention necessary to form an
intelligent opinion of their worth.
Have your We doubt if one third
of the members of the General As
sembly who would be called together
to pass upon the laws are familiar
with them. Could they within sixty
days give the laws the consideration
their Importance demands?
Would it not be better to defer
the matter till the regular session
and have a full and free discussion?
-Cynthiana Democrat.

Receiving Il 1-2 cents per pound for
twenty-five calves. the highest price
ever paid for beef In this State. was
the good luck that fell to William H.
Burrus. county agent of Lee County.
who arrived in Richmond yesterday
and sold his lot to Swift &: Company.
These calves weighed on an average
OF 1000 pounds each and were among
the best that have been seen in this
city
They were fed by boys and girls
since February Is. and each animal had
gained two and one-half to three
pounds each day since that time. This
work an the part of the children
simply shows. according to Mr.. Bur
rus. what can be done to put beef on
tho market In order that the demands
OF the United States Army and the
people can be met.
