The farmers of Abbott's Greek
township got excited last week over
a rumOr that if they thought their
land assessed too high, to come tC
Lexington, to the county seat and il
would be reduced A crowded house
was present but all soon came back
mad and worse than mad, because
they got no relief.
Sugar has made another advance
and has gone still higher. We can't
get it anyway. What's the cause OF
this, is left for somebody to solve.
The farmer claims that he has been
getting only $3.50 bushel for his 20
tatoes recently while they are now
selling for SIS Sc, and 81 bushel, SC
this is q plain case of the retail mer
chant making a big profit. (For the
information of our correspondent will
state SIS and S6 are now being paid
for pOtatoes).
The farmers are going to raise
enough to eat for themselves and to-
bacco for their money crop and buy
as little as they possibly can and
thus help reduce the high cost of liv
ing.
Mr.. and Mrs. Robt Barlow are at
home from the hospital, Mr.. Barlow
has about recovered, while Mrs Bar.
low is very feeble from their recent
automobile accident.
The farmers are, very busy planting
their corn and other crops.
D. e, .Clodfelter had the misfortune
to cut his hand while shoeing one of
his horses last week.
Eugene Smith is suffering consid-
erab1y, having had his leg reset again.

POSTMASTER RUMORS

New Rule Puts Quietus on Possi.
 bilities of Appointment in This City
 Under Civil Service Act.
 With the announcement that there is a possibility of John T. King of Bridgeport being postmaster general comes rumors of possible appointees here 4 years hence But all have gone for nought because of the law recent ly passed by congress ,and signed by the president. The law requires that the postmaster of all 1, ,, and class post offices be given a civil service examination and not receive the di- rect appointment.
 The bill will put an end to appoint ments, so that tho speculative rumors .hich have been in the air for the past day mean nothing. The name of ex-Mayor George Quigley was the favorite for the "dopestens" to ad- vance as the strongest possibility of being a man for King to boost for here.

FRANCE SEEMS SATISFIED
Newspaper Comment on IT. :. E1ecfion Favorable to Harding-Not Worried About International Relations.

Paris, Nov. 4-Newspapers of this city gave great prominence to reports of the American election. In their comments the papers declare the cleo tion of Senator Harding was tri- umph, give high praise to his per- sonaiity and recall he has always as- serted great sympathy for France.
 In examining the consequences of the election editors are unanimous in remarking that it clearly condemns the policy of President Wilson and settles definitely the situation existing between the administrative and legis- lative departments of the country. They assert this situation has com pletely paralyzed American interna- tional policy and express the convic- ton that the result of the election will in no way prejudice Franco American friendship.
