PAID ADVERTISING
WHO PAYS THE EREIGHT2

WHO PAYS THE FREIGHT? Advocates of bonding the city to erect light and power plant overlook the important finale to such action. This is, who will pay the freight Seward has not one dollar in the treasury today, but is paying interest on it's warrants until it's taxes come due. Bonding the city for $2O0,O00 would mean paying six per cent in- terest which would total $12,000 an nually; to pay off one bond each year for twenty years would take $10,000. This means the city would be forced to raise $22,000 more money than it now raises. Any high school child can tell you that something cannot be taken from nothing. Who will pay the difference in the budgets?
 TAXPAYERS
 Add to this salaries, up-keep of the plant, and depreciation. Whats the answer. Every taxpayer in Seward will have his taxes doubled.
 Handn't we better let well enough alone?
 Help the overburdened

LIVE PERSONAL HAPPENINGS
FROM MIL TON FOR A WEEK

Believing that inoculation of pei
seed the Milton Canning Company hal
bought several hundreds of dollar
worth of HumOgerm inOculation
enough to inOculate the entire ISOt
bushels of pea seed which they arr
putting out. This incubation they are
giving free to the growers to inocu
late the seed before planting. It is
claimed that Humogerm inoculateC
roots will deposit $50 to 200 pounds oil
nitrogen to the acre--eQual to 1-2 tor
of nitrate of soda. IL is also claimed
that incubation helps to increase
yield and helps peas and beans to
grow in new localities. If it is found
that the incubation helps peas the
company expects to inoculate the bean
seed they will put out later. The in
OculatiOn has been tried in the west
with excellent results.
Whether maliciously or through ig-
nOrance, some one has recently start
ed a rumOr that the change in name
from Birdsong Brothers to Milton
Canning Company has been done to do
the growers. E. P. Nicholson a mem
ber of the firm, said to the writer con-
cerning this rumOr: 1--WE have one
statement that we desire to make in
the matter and that is, the old part
nership of BirdsOng Brothers merely
incorporated under the laws of Della
ware in order to allow e. P. Nichol-
son and J. c. MOultOn to take an in
terest in the business. Mr.. S. A. Bird
song, of New York City, and Mr. r. p.
BirdsOng, of Philadelphia, still own
the majority of the interest and they
expect to continue to keep their mon
ey in the business and back it Just as
they have done for the past four
years."
The funeral of Mrs. William Collins
who died at her home near town on
Saturday morning of paralysis, was
held Tuesday afternoon at her late
residence. Rev. T. o. Grouse had
charge of the services. Interment was
made in Reynolds cemetery by S. J.
Wilson and Son. Mrs. Collins leaves
beside a husband, one son, Robert H.
Collins, rural mail carrier. She was n
years old.
The town election on Saturday re-
suited in the selection of William H.
Welch as mayor; William H. Work
man and DR.. John G. Wiltbank as
councilmen for three years. This was
the first election to be held under the
new charter whereby candidates for
mayor and councilmen are required
20 file their names with the clerk of
council, endorsed by five freeholders, |
at least one week before election day, /!
and proved agreeable to the citizens.
This does away with the last hour
candidates and gives the voters an op-
portunity to think over the qualifica-
tions of the candidates before voting.

chant, was stricken while in his store

At a meeting of the citizens of Mil

it was decided to donate to S. Ed

lot in the town. The double lot owned
by A. H. Lofand, 120x12O feet, on Bay
street, was purchased for $500, the
price given by Mr.. Lofland about 12
years ago. Mr.. EdmOnds did not ask
the people for this gift but was the
spontaneous act of a people who want
to see the town industries grow. The
destruction by fire of the garment fac
tory last week was a loss to Mr.. Ed
munds of several thousand dollars and
to the people, especially to the women,
of a large weekly pay roll. Work will
begin at once on a building 6Ox1OO
feet, one story high, to cost about four
thousand dollars. This factory will
give employment to several men and
about fifty women and girls. L. A.

ment factories.

Taking Ford Seriously.

That the political managers of the
two old parties are taking Henry
Ford's presidential boom seriously is
month several prominent men in both
the democratic and republican parties
have admonished their fellows that the
movement in behalf of MIR. Ford must
not be whistled down the wind. The
latest utterance upon the subject
comes from Charles d. Hilles, repub-
lican national committeeman from
New York, and prominent in the in
ner councils of the republican national
manag cement. in a vein of admonition
revealing that he entertains real ap-
prehension of sthe Ford boom getting
out of hand and swamping all other
candidates. recognized and possible.
In II statement given to the press
yesterday Mr.. Hilles employs terms of
vitriolic comment upon Mr.. Ford's fit.
ness for the high Office to which he as
pires. Mr.. Hilles designates him as a
mere bag Of gold who knows nothing
about anything except to make auto
mobiles, and then the commentator
branches out from that" to say a
number Of unpleasant things about the
subject of his roasting statement.
Mr.. Hilles realizes the source of Mr..
Ford's strength with the everyday
masses. who do not go deeply into the
responsibilities of the office Of Chief
Executive OF the United States or
anaIyze Mr.. Ford's capacity as shown
by his utterances and his record. So
often one hears the trite statement,
''NYell, Ford has made mighty sue
cessful business man. and I don't see
why he would not make good Presi.
dent
Mr.. Hilles thinks il is time that the
voters should be brought up with a
round turn to take these elements into
consideration before they lend them
selves to the movement to make Henry
Ford President, which is being con.
Quoted by skilled political manipula-
tors. according to all the surface signs
and outcroppings. The Chicago Trib.
une takes another tack in combating
the Ford boom: it SCOTS and jeers at
him and tries to make him ridiculous.
Both plans may have their merits in
seeking TO disparage him before the
getting an extensive line of publicity.
