THE CITY SAYS THERE MUST BE
NO NEWSPAPER CONTESTS
NO SOLICITING WHERE PRIZES
ARE OFFERED-A GOOD LAW
AND EVERYONE APPROVES IT'S
ADOPTION.

An ordinance was passed last
Thursday night, April "a, 1919, by
the City Council, of Paris, KY, pro-
hibiting the solicitation of suDscrlp-
tions by solicitors, for periodicals
and newspapers, where prizes, etc..
are offered. The ordinance is as fol-
lows:
"For soliciting Subscriptions to
ANY NEWSPAPER OR PERIOD
CAL by offering any premium or gift,
or where solicitors are engaged in
ANY contest for prize, or prizes, per
day, $500"
The ordinance above was also in
effect last year. The Paris newspa-
pers have refrained from conducting
any contests during that time be-
cause it was against the law, also
because the public has been annoyed
enough with such contests"
However, the law is being violated
every day by foreign newspapers.
Innocent solicitors are also being in
duced to violate the above ordinance.
The newspapers of Paris do not want
to issue warrants for these solicitors,
as they are sure that they are uncon-
scious of the fact that they are vio-
lating the law. If the practice is
continued, however, it will be neces-
sary for the local papers, in justice
to themselves, to take steps to stop
the violation of the ordinance, which
is very plain.
The Paris newspapers pay licenses,
city and county taxes, ETC., for the
conducting of their business and for
the protection against foreigners
coming to this city and being allow
ed privileges not conceded to them.
The attention of the city officials
is also called to the above. They all
pride themselves on enforcing the
law, if their attention is called to
any violations of the city ordinances.
The law is very plain and the
Mayor and Council are to be congrat-
uIated on the drafting of such an or
dinance, as it is certainly very clear
and prohibits the obnoxious contest
practice in Paris.

A large crowd was in attendance
at the Blue Grass Oil Exchange
open-call session Saturday afternoon
and evening. Cooperating, Lee
Kent and Parboken were in active
demand at increased prices over the
last sales. A large number of Bour-
bon shares changed hands. Bidding
was spirited.
The Kentucky Oil Journal, pub
lished at Louisville, in it's summary
of Kentucky oil news, compliments
THE NEWS by republishing entirely
extracts concerning the oil exchanges
in this city, and the progress of oil
development in other places in which
Paris companies>are interested. The
Journal gives THE NEWS credit for
these items, which are published
word for word just as they were
written in THE NEWS Office. The
Journal shows good judgment in it's
selection of news matter.
There were 271 new wells complet-
ed in Kentucky during the month OF
March, an increase of Sc. Many of
the new wells brought in during
March were smaller than those for
February, and for this reason there
is shown a falling off in new produc-
ton of 531 barrels. Total new pro-
duction for the month was 9,247
barrels. OF the 271 new wells drill
ed, only Is were dry and IL gave
gas.
Bad condition of the roads fol-
lowing heavy rains throughout the
mountain regions had effect on the
number of new work under way. In
the new work at the close Of the
month there were twenty-four rigs
I'D and 500 wells drilling. -
The prediction is being made that
the production of oil in the State OF
Kentucky may reach BOO, 900 barrels
per week by the end of the present.
year 1919. This amount of oil would
mean the sale Of approximately forty
million (4O,O00,OO0) dollars worth
of oil per year. Men of wealth and
large business experience are almost
daily becoming financially interested
in the Kentucky oil industry. 1t Is.
obvious that the industry deserves
and iustifies the consideration Of the
best business men of the State.
Forty millions is quite an item,
and this vast wealth is being taken
out of the ground, new wealth, so to
speak, from a source hitherto unde-
yeloped. Thousands and thousands
of dollars are being turned. loose in
Kentucky by the oil industry for ma
terial, supplies, labor, etc. The pay
rolls of the different companies run
into thousands; this money circulates
around and benefits the banks, the
real estate people, the hotels, the
stores, the restaurants, the amuse-
ment places.
