report made by r. A. Baird from
Healdton. The Healdton boys have
good organization and they are
always prepared to cooperate with
the party in the county and state.
Judge Castleman in reporting from
Wilson says there needs to be some
work done there. Democrats are full
of apathy and few rousing meetings

SUPREME COURT RULES on
STOCK DIVIDENDS

The loss of the government as a
result of the Supreme Courts decis-
ion declaring stock dividends not
taxable as income win be nearly half
a billion dollars, according to an es-
innate by Commissioner of Internal
Revenue Roper.
With some 100000 dividend re-
turns on the bureaus files, it will
take months to make an accurate es-
innate to the effect Of the decision,
Mr. Roper said, but hasty search
Indicates that $70,00O,000 paid in
1917 and 1918 will have to be re-
turned, while the loss in uncolIecte0
taxes in 1919 will be 70O,O00,000
and that of 1920, 100000.
Some of this loss, the Commission
er said, will be offset by the tax on
stock sales. Mr.. Roper emphasized
that estimates of the governments
less are not official and that the loeD
might be found to be larger than
now estimated.

farmer, residing on the Smedley
farm, on the Cynthiana pike, near
Paris, was tried in the Bourbon Cir
cult Court, Tuesday afternoon, on 4

and other witnesses the jury ad-
judged OrmeS to be of unsound
mind, and ordered him taken to the
Eastern Kentucky Hospital for The
Insane at Lexington. Ormes was
arrested Monday by Chief of Police
Link after he had frightened sew
eral persons by his wild talk and
conduct.
When before the jury trying his
case Ormes made the statement that

posed German Emperor, Wilhelm.
and that he had been delegated to
attend to all the Kaiser's personal
and private business in America.

come into possession Of all the gold
in the world, and didn't know what
to do with it," Ormes came to Paris

SENATE PASSES HOUSE BILL
TAXING GASOLINE

A tax of one cent gallon on
gasoline used in motor vehicles is
imposed by bill originating in the
House, which was passed by the Sen
ate.
A clause placed in the bill by the
House exempting gasoline used in
farm tractors was stricken out by
the Senate because it was thought
that this would make the bill uncon-
stitutional.
It is estimated that this bill will
yield 100000 a year, to be placed
in the road fund.
The bill was attacked by Senators
from the central section of the
State on the ground that such a tax
was unjust in view of the fact that
no production tax is placed on coal.
and for that reason Eastern Ken
lucky escapes the payment of Its
just share of taxes.

BASKET BALL

I" The Paris and Versailles Y. M. c.
A. basket ball teams will play a
game on the Paris Y. Nj. c. A. gym
nasium floor, on the night of Thurs
day. March Is. Both teams are
going strong, and a good game is
promised. Play will be called at
1880 o'clock.
The Cynthiana Democrats sport
ing editor tbeg pardon, no reference
to Editor James M. Allen) gives the
following interesting account of how
the Cynthiana girls defeated the
Paris girls team in the game played
at Cynthiana, Friday night:
"The Cynthiana H. S. basket
ball teams broke even with Paris H.
S. in two swift, hard fought battles
Friday night on the gym. floor. The
Cynthiana Girls team gathered the
Paris girls to them right from the
Jump off, out-generaled them in all
plays, and when it come to rough
and tumble playing showed them
some stunts they had never seen be-
fore. The score was, Cynthiana,
20; Paris, 10.
1.-THE local boys didn't fare 80
well, although their playing was up
to the usual high standard. There
was no slowing up on their part a.
any time, for until the latter part OF
the last half it looked as though
Paris would play second fiddle in
/ both games. But Paris had one
wallop left and swung with 1t in
the last minute of play, piling up 6
score of 81 to H."
To-day, March IL, at 1880 p. m:
the drawing for places in the girls,

in the Paris Y. M. c. A. The teams
drawing first and second places will
then play, starting the struggle 1or

PROPERTY VALUES HAVE IN.
CREASED-HAVE YOU IN
/ CREASED YOUR IN
SURANCE?

In five years building cost has in.
creased 60 per cent; furniture 127
per cent; clothing cost 129 per
per cent. Consequently there has
been great increase in the values
covered by the usual policy covering
Dwelling and Contents" or "Mer-
camille Building and Contents" The
same is true of nearly every other
kind of insurable property.
Late increase in values has more
than covered depreciation. What
was sufficient insurance five years
years ago may not be half enough
now. To you the real value of your
property is what it would cost you
to replace it.
If you were burned out to-day
would your loss check from the in
surance company pay it's rightful
share of the present cost of replac-
ing your property?
If you haven't enough insurance.
let us talk with you about what
amount you should properly carry.
