STATE RATING BOARD DECLINES
NEW Schedule.

The State Rating Board has notf-
ned the Kentucky Actuarial Bureau
that it declines to accept the new
schedule submitted by the bureau of
this year for making rates for fire
towns and localities where no spe-
cific rates had been published.
In declining to accept the new
schedule the board contends that it
is carrying out to the letter the pro-
visions of the fire Insurance law
whereby all insurance rates in force
are to remain for two years.
The Actuarial Bureau contends
that the law relates to basic rates
only and does not apply to special
hazards. The Rating Board, how
ever, takes an opposite view of the
matter and will hold the Actuarial
Bureau to its construction of the act.

NEWSPAPER MEN PROTEST
AGAINST SPECIAL TAX.

Representative members of the
American Newspaper Publishers As
ISOLATION met in Washington, Friday,
and unanimously adopted a state
ment declaring their willingness to
pay any rate of taxes Congress finds
it necessary to impose upon legiti-
mate and necessary business, but
protesting emphatically against the
levy of any special, discriminating
war tax against newspapers.
While the publishers were in ses-
sion the Senate Finance Committee
by vote of eight to six wrote into
its provision of the House War Tax
Bill section increasing second-class
mail rates to Il cents pound and
levying a tax of per cent. upon
publishers net profits over $4,000 a
year. Half an hour later a commit
tee from the newspapermen present
ed their protest to Chairman Sim
mons and went away without def
mite assurances but confident there
will be a reconsideration.
The publishers meeting was unus-
ually largely attended and upon the
necessity of prompt and vigorous pro-
test against the special proposal,
there was unhesitating agreement.

EDITORIAL MUSINGS.

Our National Hymn.

Its too late to remedy ii now"
the other day. but as soon as the
war is over let's get together some
where and frame a National hymn
that more OF our people can sing,
and sing right, than are now able to
sing America or The Star Spangl-
ed Banner"
They are both beautiful when
properly sung. but you can call upon
any audience in Paris or in Bourbon
county to-day 10 sing either or both,
and not over fifty per cent. of them
will know the words. They have
changed both of them so many times
since the original composers gave
them to the world that you will have
At least four versions known to the
people making up most any audience.
This is true not only in Paris, but all
over the United States. There are
many gospel hymns more widely
known than either America" or
1.-The Star Spangled Banner" and the
only reason we have been able to ad-
vance is that the latter two are
about as hard to sing as anything
outside of the grand opera selections.
Don't understand that there is in
America to-day a man or woman
whose bosom does not swell with pa
triotic pride at the sound of "Amer-
lea" or "The Star Spangled Banner"
It does not matter whether we know
the words-we love the air none the
less 1t makes no difference if you
do not start OF strong on My cour-
try, tbs OF thee. sweet land of lib
erty, of thee I sing" and then find
that you can't sing, but have to hum
the remainder because you have for
gotten the words-you love that
song and could die fighting to its
strains.
But. seriously, now that we have
recognized more than ever before
how necessary is a National anthem.
something those of us long out of
school can sing as we'll as the chill
dren in the school, il wouldn't be a
bad idea at all to have one which
everyone in the Nation will not oniy
be familiar with. but be able to sing
and sing right. s

CIVILIZATION" ATTACHED.

At the conclusion of the perfor-
nance of the big scenic picture-play.
Civilization" at the Washington
Theatre. in Maysville, last week, Mr..
c. D. Coons, of Louisville, had an at
tachment issued attaching the box
office receipts and the company's
films.
Mr.. Coons brought suit in the
Maysville Police Court against the
All-Star Film Company, owners of
film, for 500, "for services render
ed" The papers in the case were
served by Chief of Police James
Mackey at the close of the perform
ance. The company's part of the re-
ceipts and the films of the company
were attached and are now being
held subject to the orders of the
Court. The case is set for trial on
July 3, Judge Whitaker's regular
civil court day.
Civilization" played an engage
ment of one night in Paris some
time ago, and has been making all
the towns in Central Kentucky on
this circuit. 1t was one of the finest
pictures ever seen here.

Saving the Calves.

Numerous men throughout the
country have appealed to the govern
ment TO take some steps toward con-
serving the supply of calves, lambs
and spring" chickens. We believe
4 IL is subject which should have
the serious thought of Paris meat
dealers and butchers and the farmers
OF the Bourbon county.
The hotel men of the country re-
alize the demand for these meats. We.
they know at the same time that un-
less the slaughter is stopped or at
least reduced to a minimum, it is
going TO work havoc with the meat
supply of America in a short while.
While veal brings a fancy price, and
the same is true OF lambs and young
chickens. 1t must be remembered that
II is no more nutritious than it will
be at maturity. and, of course. can
not be made to supply as many peo-
pie. The price of your animals COM
pared with the unusually high price |
Of feed stuff offers a big inducement |
to the farmer to dispose of his stock |
TO the butcher. But every farmer in |
Bourbon county. and every butcher
and meat handler in Paris knows
that the additional feed required To
keep one animal to maturity will be
made up in weight and prices which |
arc not. from present indications, go
ing to be any lower during the COM
ing fall and winter months.
The hotel men are thinking the
same thing the people of Bourbon
county ought to be thinking of
the future. They see a serious meat
famine ahead in this country unless
calves. lambs and young stock of
every description are conserv& It
IS TO meet that condition that they
ask the prompt attention of the gov
eminent. and we believe little study
of the subject will convince our cit
izcbs that the hotel men are right.
and that their suggestion Is worth
acting rpcn. i
