CITY DADS
HOLD SESSION
committees Are Granted Futher
Time To Investigate Matter
Under Consideration
STREET SUPT. OFFICE VACANT

AT the regular meeting of the City
Council, held in the Council Cham
Der, in the City Hall, the committee
appointed at former meeting for
the purpose of having the business
houses aud residences of the city
properly numbered, was given an
extension of time, also the commit
tees on repairing the Vine street
culvert and on the soldiers memorial
fund.
On account of the recent death Of
Thomas P. Woods, Superintendent Of
Public Works, a vacancy was de-
clared existing. The Council went
into executive session, at the conclu-
sion of which the announcement was
made that mo appointment would be
made at present. The members Of
the Council desired to have more
time in which to investigate the
qualifications of the large number Of
applicants for the place. The Mayor,
in the meantime, was given power to
appoint someone to fill the position
temporarily, if he should think this
necessary.
Mayor January called attention of
Chief of Police Link to complaints
received, which stated that a number
of soft drink stands were kept open
until an unreasonable hour in the
morning, and that drunken persons
were in the habit of congregating at
the places named; alse~~to condi-
lions existing at a colored pool
room on Main street, where crowds
congregate on the sidewalks.
j. A. Sullivan was granted per-
mission to open and operate a pool
room on Eighth street. &.
The old patrol wagon was ordered
sold for what it would bring. The
question of granting a permit to a
colored congregation to build a
church, which had been argued at
previous meetings, was brought I'D.
and action was again postponed.
Councilmen Doyle and Skillman
were appointed a committee to draft
set of resolutions upon the death
of former Councilman Thos. p.
Woods.
The condition of South Main
street was again brought to the at
tention of the Council

MAYOR VETOES COUNCIL AC
TON

WELDING the official power vested
in him as the city's executive officer,
Mayor E. B. January swung the veto
axe Saturday at a special meeting of
the Council, and Topped off the per-
nit granted by that body to J. A.
Sullivan for operating a pool room
at Eighth and Sycamore streets.
Mayor January stated that it
would be unwise to establish a prec-
edent of this kind in such a locality
on account of insufficient police pro-
lection, and that, in his opinion, it
was the worst location in Paris for
such business to be conducted, be-
cause it would bring together a con-
gregation of the worst elements of
both whites and blacks in the COM
munity. This is the third veto
Mayor January has issued this year.

BASKET RAIL-.

In hard contested game the Paris
High school basket ball team (boys)
met defeat for the fourteenth time
this season at the hands of Maysville
by the overwhelming score of "a to
LIZ. The Ii seems to be after all an
unlucky number and this probably
accounts for the defeat, they having
previously lost 13 times
Next Friday night both the Paris
teams play the last game at home,
when they meet the visitors from
Cynthiana. According to the dope
figured out at the recent intersec-
tional tournament held at Lexington
the local boys have a slight edge
over the Harrison county lads, while
the girls are about evenly matched.
We hope the dope is right and that
the Paris teams will not receive the
small end of a bad defeat.
The Bourbon Post basket ball team
went down in defeat Friday night in
the game played with Georgetown
Post team on the Y M G. A. floors
Final score stood % to II, The game
was witnessed by large and enthu-
siastic crowd of friends and rooters
for both teams. The game was fast
from start to finish, but the Bourbon
boys were bit slow in starting into
action. The Fats" and Leans" did
not play, the match being cancelled,
due to the fact that the Fats were
unable to get a number of their
players down to playing weight.

PRODUCE MARKET REVIEW

Increased production of eggs due
to the mild weather has been reflect
ed in larger receipts at selling mar
kets and in lower prices. There is
every indication that larger supply
of eggs will be available this season
than last.
A good, steady demand has been
noted for both live and dressed
poultry, with practically unchanged
prices at the weeks close.
Cream deliveries to creameries are
about normal for the season, with
good demand from consuming trade.
Very little foreign butter is in
sight, and prices are generally
steady.

TOBACCO NEARLY ALL IN

Up to the present time about T.
100000 pounds of tobacco has been
delivered to the floors of the Co-ope-
rative Marketing Association houses
in this city. 1t was stated yesterday
that about 100000 pounds yet
remained to be brought in. 1t is
thought this amount will be deliver
ed within the next ten days. New
contracts are being signed volunta-
rally by many who did not join the
Association last year.

Growers Cooperative Association
thoroughly approve the proposed
prosecution of contract breakers
according to Director of Warehouses
Ralph M. Barker, who has returned
from an inspection trip over the dis.
trict, in which he directed the clos.
ing OF all but one of the receiving
plants in each town having more
than one warehouse and talked with
growers, bankers and business men
| in regard to the cooperative system
of marketing.
L have never seen in my life such
wonderful spirit of cooperation
as was manifested at every point ]
visited" said Mr.. Barker. 81 talked
with farmers, merchants, bankers
and professional men in every town
and county, and it seemed to be the
unanimous opinion that we have hit
upon the right system for the dispo-
sitiOn of the crop.
In every county I visited, numer-
Gus farmers having had opportunity
to observe the workings of the new
system have voluntarily come for
ward, asked for contracts and have
signed up their crops for the next
live years. l also learned that the
members unanimously approve the
expressed intention of the legal de-
partment to sue the men who have
broken their contracts by selling
their tobacco over the loose leaf
floors and that they want this action
taken as a means of protecting mem
bers OF the association in the future
from welShers who seek to take adj
vantage of price conditions created
by loyal members who keep their
contract.
There are not many of these fell
lows, but some of them are promi-
nent enough to attract attention and
il they can get by with such vio-
lation of the agreements, the growers
declare, it will have a demoraIizing
effect on the loyal growers and
tempt others to violate their con-
tract, should future market condi-
tions continue as this year, which is
probable"
Mr.. Barker said that practically
all the association tobacco would be
delivered by the first of April.
Leases on the warehouse plants all
over the district practically have
been completed, he said, and as soon
as the work of receiving the tobacco
is out of the way trades will be COM
pleted between the warehouse own
ers and the subsidiaries, which will
take deeds to the property under the
contracts originally signed by the
owners and by Mr.. Barker as the
authorized representative of the as
ISOLATION.
F. d. Williams, of Richmond, Va,
leader of the growers . in the sun
cured association in Virginia,
North Carolina and South Carolina,
was in Lexington recently. He said
success of the association in both the
bright and dark districts of these
three States was assured, beginning
with this years crop. While he was
away from Lexington, Mr.. Barker
visited Camp Taylor and the redry-
ing plants of Louisville, Taylorsville,
Bloomfield, Springfield, Lebanon,
Harrodsburg, Danville, Lancaster
and CarrOlltOn.

ASSESSMENT OF STATE RE-
DUCED

In the equalized assessment of the
120~ counties of the State, made by
the State Tax Commission which
shows decrease of 64,043,525 un-
der last year, Bourbon county is fig
ured as follows: Equalized assess
ment. $35,17S,457; Loss, $387,461.
The decrease is due mainly to a
falling of in intangibles and live
stock. Real estate is assessed at
practically what it was last year.
The equalized assessments of the
State Tax Commission are based on
the returns Of the County Tax Com
missioners.

up a wire incinerator weighing 35
pounds, back Of Backer's Pharmacy,
and carried it to CIV Groebner's drink
place where it was dropped. George
Gieseke's garage was moved off of its
foundation and would probably have
been turned over, had it not contained

will be the Fascist themselves. This
great body of young men, bent on
sweeping aside all old political meth
DDS and awakening Italy will dis
cover that MussoIini is held prisoner
of the bureaucratic red tape just as
much as any former premier.
By making administrative reform
the chief factor in his program, Mus
solini reveals that he knows where
the greatest difficulty lies. But here
again criticism is easier than accom-
pIishment, and to suppose that q Fas-
cisti government can STAY the hydra

with superhuman powers which it does
not possess.
The present government is only
transitional, and may be doomed TO
overthrow by the Fascist member
ship themselves, who, by that time,
may be allied with the socialists.
This is, of course, an apparent
paradox, but the Fascist, contrary
to the common belief everywhere,
are not reactionaray theorists but
merely enthusiastic poetical men bent
on breaking through a maze of ham,
pering traditions into a brighter and
more beautiful form Of society.

Rome, Nov. 5.-Within a very few
weeks Benito Mussolini will realize
he has made the mistake Of his life
when he accepted the premiership and
installed the Fascist government.
His power as the chief of the mill
tary m~alcontents was absolute, he
could have dominated any other gov
eminent as the leader of the most
powerful opposition.
His situation today is much the
same as that of a literary critic who
would accept the challenge of an
other author to write a better book
yourself. Because, as an excellent
critic seldom makes a great author.
SO the Fascist leader will find that
governing is quite different from criti-
cising. Mussolini's chief opponents, if
