DOMESTIC SUBSCRIPTION RATES
FLETCHER AT FELLOWSHIP

In spite of some uncertainty of his
coming, caused by his remaining in
Washington to vote on reservations
to the peace treaty, very large crowd
greeted Senator Fletcher at Fellow
ship Friday.
The occasion was the closing of
Fellowship school, one of the best in
the county, and not only were the ex-
ercises witnessed by every school pat
ron able to be present, but many peo-
pie came from all over Marion and not
a few from Levy.
The teachers and scholars had
very pretty and instructive program,
which they rendered to the entire sat
isfaction of all present, and then Mr..
fletcher was introduced to the au-
dience. The introduction was a for
mality, as everybody but the babies
born in the last year or two knows
the senator. Mr.. Fletcher gave the
crowd good talk on education. He
is much interested in educational af-
fairs, particularly the disposition to
fails to do what he can to promote
CEelr Improvement.
After the exercises and speaking,
the Fellowship folks served one of
those noble dinners for which their
community is famous, and which was
fully enjoyed by all present.
Politics was not mentioned during
the day, but several well-posted men
have reported to the Star that Mr..
9 Fletcher doesn't need to talk politics
to that crowd. They know his merits
and are going to give him their votes.
Mr.. Fletcher returned to Jackson
vile on the afternoon train. He will
speak to the people of Dunnellon next
Thursday night land to those of Ocala
Friday night. All his friends in
twenty-five miles of Ocala should be
here to meet him on that occasion.

GIVE IT A NEW FRANCHISE

The mayor and committee of the
council are TRYING to straighten out
snarl into which the city and the gas
company have become involved. The
average citizen hasn't been aware
there was trouble, as the company
has functioned as usual and the city
has been very reticent.
According to the charter the gas
company must pay the city $500 eve
ry June l. or its charter expires. Last
June, the manager of the local branch
of the corporation, which owns the
plant, had not the 5000 on hand, tho
he could have borrowed it, of course.
So he asked for few days grace. In
view of the fact that there are num-
Der of men in the city who have not
paid taxes for years and yet live N
their own homes, the request could
hardly be considered unreasonable. A
few days later. the manager of the
gas company had the money. But the
city clerk did not think he had the au-
thority to accept it without permits
sion of the council. and the permission
has not been granted. so for almost
year the company has been operating
without franchise.
We understand that it is the inten-
ton of the council to grant the gas
company a new charter. and allow it
to make a raise in rates-how much
remains to be decided after a test is
made of the gas. The council commit
tee has borrowed testing apparatus
from another town and with the as
sistance of one of our chemists will
make a test. The council, we under
stand, feels like it can't reasonably
hold the gas company down to it's old
rate, and tho the Star has big gas
bill every month it is of the same
opinion. The gas company has not
raised rates since the franchise was
granted. 1t is now charging So per
thousand feet, which was it's first rate,
when the gas was by no means as good
as it is now, and when it's expenses
were not so per cent of what they are
now. 1t gave for a number of years
discount of 80 per cent. which has
been taken up recently, thereby giving
the impression to most people that the
rates have been raised. The gas COM
pany has been operating at loss for
two years, so the loss of it's franchise
has no terrors for it. IF it was to shut
down, the city would either have to
let the plant remain idle and the peo-
pie go without gas, or appoint re-
ceiver, which would be an added bur-
den to the city government.
Following is the report of the gas
company of it's expenses and revenue
for the last two years:

SUMMERFIELD ALL RIGHT

The letter from Summerfeld printed
elsewhere is gratifying to all friends
Of progress. and bears out the opinion
expressed in the Star the other day
that the people Of that section had
more public spirit than to try TO hold
up a great enterprise for a small
grievance.
The origin of the opinion that Sum-
merfield would vote against bonds
seems very obscure. So far. the Star
has not been able TO find anybody who
would stand for it.
There was considerable talk to that
effect on the day the state road COM
mission met here, but Summerfield
men emphatically state they were not
responsible for it. 1t is not impos-
sible, however, that some of them, sur
prised at the uncalled for accusation,
may have spoken out more strongly
than they intended.
At any rate, the Star didn't take
much stock in the report and is glad
to have it's opinion confirmed.
1t is also glad to have his district
speak up SO well for little Joe Davis,
who has been a hardworking and
faithful commissioner, but neverthe-
less seems to have been the recipient
of more criticism than any other mem
Der of the board.
The loyalty of Summerfield people
makes the bond issue almost a GER
tainty, and we will call the attention
Of the other sections of the county to
the fact that some districts that OPP
pose bonds are nearer the main line
Of road than they are.
The unnecessary agitation of those
few days was the cause for the state
highway commission passing the fol-
lowing resolutions.
Whereas, Marion county has called
bond election to build it's north and
south trunk highway on the east side
Of Lake Weir; now be it
Resolved, That if such bond issue
is carried, said road will be construct.

After Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Hard

about the White House through the

did not meet the President, who

CONDITIONS
SEITLlMo DOWN

According 10 the best authorities,
the readjustment period concerning
which we have heard so much Of late
is now on in fun swing and business
men generally are accepting its pro-
eesses with patience and hopv.
According to the interesting en-
alysis made Of current conditions
by the experts of the National City
Bank, New York, the downward
movement Of prices, Of which the
first signs appeared last May, and
which became quite evident in De-
tober, has become more general and
precipitate in the last month. The
hopes that had been entertained that
the descent to a lower level would
be accomplished so gradually that
the losses would be covered by cur
rent profits, without serious inter-
ruption to business and without un-
employment, have proven illusory.
Rarely, if ever, has there been so
great a decline in commodity prices
in so short time. The twelve basic
commodities included in the price
table of the Federal Reserve Bank
of New York, to-wit: wheat, corn.
hogs, sugar, pig iron, copper, lead,
lumber, petroleum, cotton, hides and
rubber, have declined on the aver
age 1876 per cent since the high
point of the record in May.
Petroleum is the only one of this
group which has not suffered Sc
verely, and owing to the growing de-
mand for fuel oil, gasoline and the
other products it has scarcely suf-
fered at all. All Of the others have
been forced lower during the past
month, and ended the month without
Improvement.
The Bureau Of Labor figures, Oc-
tober average based upon about 325
commodities, were z per cent below
September, and 17.3 per cent below
the May average As compared with
October, 1919, the table shows a
decline in articles of food of 8 1-3
per cent, clothes and clothing nearly
Is per cent, and farm products 81
per cent. Bradstreet's table Of con-
solidated prices is down 24.8 per
cent from its peak, which occurred
in February.
There is no big surplus of wheat
in the world. Allowing for the un-
certain character of all crop esti-
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1920-12-09

mates. for even the figures upon our
own crops are only estimates, and
allowing also for uncertainty about
European consumption, the margin
Of safety is small. Nobody will real
ly nnow until about next May or
June whether all our wheat will be
wanted or not. Meanwhile, the ques-
ton with each holder or prospec-
tive purchaser is whether or not he
wants to carry wheat over into the
next crop year. The answer to that
question determines his attitude.
Market opinion is shown by the fact
that wheat for March delivery is
still about cents per bushel below
the December delivery.
The hope or expectation that
somehow the government could in
terfere with the course of events
during the readjustment period has
been disappointed. The government
can do nothing to prevent changing
prices when changing world condi-
tons force prices either up or down.
Too much government interference
with business conditions is far worse
than no-government meddling at all.
After all is said, price movements
are the outgrowth of worldwide
events which no human agencies can
control, and in times like these the
best of business men can do moth
ing more than exercise good discre-
ton from day to day and plan to
go forward again as rapidly a spos-
sible.
One thing is certain: when the
process of readjustment is complete
there viii be a tremendous impetus
once more toward industrial and
commercial activity. Business es-
Establishments which keep their houses
in order and prepare for bigger and
better things later viii reap the first
