the bridge. II Is to avoid such acct
dents that due care must be exercised
and thus have the public safegparded.
Aberdeen patrons who work in Mays
vile today pay the same price per
month as they did 10 years ago. Yet
coal Is double Is double what II was
two years ago. AS to running at night
who would ride? When our good
neighbors go home at supper time
they have no desire to leave their
pleasant homes till business calls
them the next day. Tobacco men nd
wggonears who came to Maysville
would not wish to get across the river
at night-much preferrins to stay in
Maysville where they cna have hotels,
boarding houses, amusements and
other disipations.
Now word as to the owner, Cap
tain c. M. Phister has spent his useful
and successful life among us. For 2S
years he has given his special ard
personal attention to this ferryboat
All who know Captain Phister know
him to be the very embodiment. Of
thoroughness and efficiency. He has
always taught those under him that
civility and politeness linked witty
promptness and dispatch were the
prime means to success. His slogan
has been land, load and leave"-no
delay, no risk-he cheerfully accom-
modates knowing that pleased pub
lie is the best advertisement. Our city
grade, the various roadways LEADING
to the ferry are sometimes bad by
reason of washing and for money and
come loaded to be ferried and jus
censures can fall upon Council fcr
this faulty condition. At this bus
tobacco season wagons by the dozen
come loaded to be ferried and as just
as quick service, commensurate witt
due care, are brought to Maysville'
likewise the return of empty wagons
which are transported free. are take"
back so that day in day out the We;
round we do not think there is on the
Ohio river better ferriage fafilitie'
than those Maysville and AberdeeH
enjoy and we are wise to back up this
splendid and thorough artery of trade
and to give credit to the owner AM
his crew for the most rigid observ-
ance of those antilles which reduce
friction, raise value and establish con-
fdence.
Captain Phister runs night ferry
in charge of Billie Shelton whose
headquarters are on the ferry boat, az
sobery, steady and accommodating q
fellow as is to be found. He is easily
got at any time and through his year,
and years of service prides himself
on never having had a difficulty or
fuss with anyone, nor has he been re
ported for neglect in anyway.

hauling. The Ferry Boat Is annually
inspected and shows her credentials
for all the power and strength neces-
sary for ordinary traffic. But recently
her hull was made new and strong
with extra heavy beams in anticipa-
ton Of future business. The crew
naming her is composed Of Captain
Clephane for 40 years at the helm

watchful of the owners interest are
painstaking, polite and careful, no
loud talking no boisterous conduct, no
friction, but loading and unloading
with marked proficiency they make
stated trips between the two points
on time and with rapidty.
Fog, ice, wind, high water, congested
traffic, these must be in overwhelming
evidence ere conditions change from
marked proficiency to suspension.
Highly equipped and with an eye
single to efficiency the work of the
personnel backing this public utility

in serving the public. OF course we
move fast in America and the heavy
auto truck is now beginning to roll its
way over our roads. One such ap-
preached the Ohio side weighing 5000
pounds and carrying load of tobacco
weighing 5000 pounds, naturally APP
proaches nor boat were made to carry
such concentrated load and the driver
thereof was politely told to change
his handling to suit the mode of fer
rying This was the only kick known
and from such source is easily I'M
derstood and should not weigh with a
reasoning, thinking public When it
is appraised of two facts: FIRST. the
owner of the tobacco told Captain
Clephane that it was too heavy for
the Ferry Boat to transport and he
did exactly right to refuse to carry 1t
until it was safe for transportation.
Second: Shortly before this incident
a truck similarly loaded in crossing
a bridge in an Ohio road went through

Paris, June 15.--After having OBJ
tanned a slight majority in the cham
Der of deputies as the outcome of the
debate on the French newspaper ad-
ministratiOn, Premier Clemenceau's
cabinet had to face series of inter-
pellations today on its external policy,
especially as to Russia and the BOlsha-
Wiki. The debate promises to be full
of violent incidents. for the socialists
are determined they Will defend their
Russian friends. The first speaker on
this matter was Maurice VioIette, who
was led to say: Il won't discuss the
way Odessa was evacuated, but I'm
here to draw the chambers attention
to the French governments incoher~
ent policy and the many ruses en-
ployed, This policy was folly. At
tempting the blockade of Russia with
100000 men is as stupid as as trying
to blockade Paris with a company of
infantry"
