Extend the Corporate Limits.

Time and again We have advocated
the extension of the corporate limits
of Columbia for the reason there are
no available lots at this time upon
which to build, and for the further
reason we want to see the town grow.
Columbia can not expand unless terri
tory upon which to erect residences
could be scured. There are many peo-
pie who live outside of the present
corporate limits who are towns peo-
pie for all intents and purposes, and
they should be brought in, and the
only way to make them pay a munich.
pal tax is to extend the corporate
limits.
1t is true that should an extension
be made, the new addition would have
to be kept up by the town authorities
in the way of street building and fur
nishing lights, but it is also true that
the new citizens would have to pay a
municipal tax which would go along
way toward meeting the expense of
internsl improvements.
If the corporate limits were extend
ed half mile each way more than
three hundred people would become
citizens of Columbia, and thereby
swelling the population of our munic-
ipality to sixteen hundred.
Besides new corners would arrive in
Columbia, purchase lots and erect
residences. ~
This is a school town and people
would come and locate here If there
were homes TO buy or lots upon which
to erect residences.
We can remember when the resi-
dence of Mrs Mary Caldwell, on
BurkesVille street, was the extent of
the corporate limits of Columbia, the
same distance applying in all other
directions From Mrs. Caldwell's res.

The Russell Springs correspondent
to the Russell County News is clamor-
ing for road from his place to either
the Adair county line or to the Casey
county line. He says it is almost I'M
possible to get out of Russell Springs
during the winter, and he calls upon
all who are interested to begin at
once to put the project through. We
believe that If Russell county will
build to the Adair line the road would
be completed to Columbia by the far
mers living along the line, and the
Fiscal Court of the county. It Is
good move.
