The last of the series of Sunday
evening dinners being served at
North Middletown, by the Womens'
Clubs of that city, was made one of
the most enjoyable of all. The din
ner, prepared in the highest style of
culinary art by the ladies of the vi

tian church, which is soon to be-
come thing Of the past. Many out
of-the county visitors were present,
as well as large number from Paris
and other surrounding towns, and
all enjoyed to the very fullest the
good things set before them.
Since the above was placed in type
a telephone message from North Mid

earnest solicitation Of large num-
Der of people the Sunday dinner feat
ure will be continued, at least for a

The advocates in favor of the
$500, 600 bond issue are appealing to
the voters to vote upon themselves
tax of twenty cents on the 500
worth Of taxable property for ten
years in Bourbon county to repair
the turnpikes.
Mr.. Taxpayer, have you stopped
long enough to think what this
means to you in the way of increased
taxation upon your farm, town lot,
livestock and other property?
The assessed valuation of Bourbon
county is about $4,000, 900, and
upon a rate of twenty cents it would
mean s64, 900 per year for ten years,
including the 100000 bond issue
wanted, would be s1,140,00O the tax
payers would have to pay for the re-
pair of turnpikes in the county.
The interest at the rate of five per
cent. on the 100000 issue would be
$500 per year for the term of ten
years, or a total of s250,000 paid out
to the "money-lenders" who seem to
favor the bond issue so strongly. Is
il possible that there could be
-'nigger in the wood pile?"
For some reason, whether it be a
good or bad one, the most favored
pike seems to be the North Middle
town, in the county, which has been
reconstructed, repaired, patched,
oiled. graveled and tarred, in part.
while the "cross" pixies have gone
from bad to worse, and the citizens
along those have to sit idly by,
while those who traverse the North
Middletown pike don't even "jostle"
in their vehicles or auto conveyances
advert
The Bourbon news. [volume] (Paris, Ky.) 1895-19??, 1919-09-02
Attention, Mr.. Taxpayer!

when travelling. Why should the
cross pixies, the main pike, the Mays
Vile, from Millersburg to the end of
the Jackstown, be in more than de-
plorable condition, while the North
Middletown pike is almost boule
ward? 1t is true that the citizens of
that section are most deserving, and
are to be congratulated upon having
a good pike, but is it not equally
true that the citizens along the Mil
lersburg and "cross" pixies are de-
serving of good pixies, oiled, patched,
gravel and partly tarred, as well?
Besides, Mr.. Taxpayer, you must
remember that your property inter-
est will be raised" $40 or more per
acre in 1920 than they were in 1919,
then why further burden yourselves
with a $1,140,000 in total?
The Fiscal Court has no binding
thority beyond their term of office,
unless that authority is carried out
during their term of Office. No one
questions for a moment the high-class
gentlemen selected on the commission
to spend the stupendous sum desired.
In other words, the members of the
Court shifted a real responsibility,
while they just "laff up their
sleeves"
Remember, Mr.. Taxpayer this is
not a one-year tax, but TEN-YEAR
TAX. with no discount, but an added
interest of $4,000 per year on $780,
600, or s25O,000 for ten years,

PICK UP YOUR SCHOOL BOOKS
AND GET READY.

According to an announcement
made by Prof. Lee fitzpatrick, SUI
perintendent of the Paris schools;
these institutions of learning will
open for the 1919-1920 school term
on next Monday, September 8. En-
rollment of the first six grades will
be held on the first day.
Indications are that the Paris High
School will have ESQ students this
year. and every effort will be made
to go beyond this mark. A campaign
for a High School education was con-
Quoted last year, and it has already
shown splendid results. There have
been persistent rumors afloat to the
the effect that there would be a short
age of books, but it has been official
Iy stated that the Paris schools will
not suffer from that cause. The
Board of Education, in its efforts to
economic for the parents, made but
few changes in the books, and there
fore but few new books will have to
be purchased for the students. The
new addition to the school building
on Seventh street will not be COM
pleted in time for occupancy at the
opening of the school term, but a
large force of men are at work push
ing the work along. and it will be a
matter of but a short time until the
annex is finished.
Superintendent fitzpatrick an
nounces that he expects all of the
students to be present on the open
ing day, and that every effort will be
made to reduce the amount of tardi-
ness to as low a mark as possible.
Teachers for all of the positions in
the city have already been announc'
ed. so there seems to be no avenue of
escape left open for the school kid
dies.

POOL ROOM OWNERS
 PAY FINE OF $25
KraSOn Assessed for Distributing
 SOCiaiStiC Literature

For allowing boys under 19 years of age to loiter about their pool room and to play pool, John Davis and Peter Jacobs, proprietors of the Main pool room, were fined $25 and costs today, but Judge John H. KTkham ordered that the fine be split between them because of circumstances which indicated that they had been deceived by several of the boys as regards their ages. Attorney P. F. McDonough ap- peared for them, and at his request the judge fixed bonds at $1oO in case of an appeal
 Case Resulted From Another.
 The arrest and fining of the proprie- tors followed the inVesti gation con- ducted by the detective bureau as a result of testimony presented Tuesday morning when Wadislaw Kovolski and Sargis Minatigan were charged with assaulting one another. Additional witnesses were secured by the police, all of them boys under the legal age, who at different times had played pool in the rooms conducted by Davis & Jacobs, according to their testi- mony.
 Boys Testify.
 August Battaglio. 15 years of age, played on several occasions and saw other young boys playing, but was never asked how old he was. Steve Sobish said he has been playing regu- larly in the rooms up to last Saturday. He also stated that he had never been questioned regarding his age. Joseph Jerzeski, Sargis Minatigan and Wai islaW KovolSSi, all of whom are 16 years of age, stated that they had fre-

 Prosecutor TestifieS.
 TO prove that the statements of one or the boys was conflicting with those made last Monday, Lawyer McDon- augh requested that Prosecutor klett take the witness stand and he then questioned the prosecutor. The result was that the statements of the youth were proved incorrect,
 The accused said that they had questioned some of the boys and had never seen the others in the rooms. A registration card with a fictitious name was carried by one of them, they said, and for this reason he was able to successfully deceive them into allowing him to play. Their rooms are placarded With signs announcing that no minors were allowed to play on the tables.
 Passed Socialist Hand Bills.
 Joseph Krason, aged 24, and who is an active member of the socialist party here, he said, was before Judge k1rkham on charge of distributing handbills. He was arrested last night at S:30 near the entrance. to Skritul- skys hall by Officer Anthony Walenc- zius and today paid a fine of $5 and costs, $2O of a s25 fine having been remitted to him upon the order of the court
 'Iaugh Yourself to Death.''
 The handbills were written in the Polish language and announced the pOStponement of a socialist picnic, which was to have been held on July l9 at Scheutzen park, until July 26. The program for the affair was given and the cover of the placard carried the socialist emblem. Music, "eats," dancing and movies were advertised and it was also stated that the kaiser was to be hung in effigy. Come and Laugh Yourself to Death" was the heading of the card, and advertise m ments of a number of prominent deal CTS and one bank were printed on the other pages of the pamphlet.
 The distributor of the bills denied any connections with the I. w. w. and thought it all right to give out cards in this way. He is employed at Landers' factory, he said, and is not connected in any way with the I. w. w. Or Bolsheviki.
 Traffic Violations.
 Dr. Peter Fox was notified by Off, cer Albert Sharpe yesterday afternoon to appear in court this morning for allowing his car to stand for more than 40 minutes on Main street Tho car was parked, according to the off, cer, for about three hours in front of the doctors office. The necessity of having his car close at hand in case of emergency was the reason for it's being stationed there the doctor said, and he promised to find a new place to leave it. Judgment was suspended.
 Keep your eyes open was the warning of the judge to Anthony Be- nulski, aged IS, who was arrested yes- terday for blocking fire hydrant with a horse and team. The wagon was left on Main street and shortly after ward fire broke out in block at the corner of Commercial street, making necessary the using of the hydrant blocked by the boy.

French Chamber of Deputies Also Hears That Safety of Nations Is
 Assured By Treaties.

Paris, July 1.-The committee of the chamber of deputies which is con- sldering the treaty of peace today took up report on German colonies. This report says that the return of Togo land and the Kamerun to France only reVlVes the prior rights of France from a political viewpoint. It adds, how ever that "a recent accord between France and Great Britain fixes the limitations and rights of each In these colonies"
 Premier Clemenceau in appearing before the committee, declared that the security Of France was guaranteed by the treaty of peace and the treaties between France and the United States and France and Great Britain. M. Gle menceau reviewed the proceedings in the peace conference regarding the left bank of the Rhine, filing with the committee a series of docum ents on the subject. He recalled that, in the opinion of Marshal Foth the bridge heads of the RhineS should be estab- lished and occupied permanently, and said that he had been obliged to choose between that protection, which France alone would have been obliged to assure and that protection afford ed by the merican and British treaties.
