Talk about the high cost of living,
how doe this, from a Washington pa
per strike you?
Housewives who visited the Center
Market this morr-ing uttered cries o
dismaj on discovering that spring Iamb
of the crop of 1913 was retailing at tl
per pound.
This would make a leg of lamb cost
from f6 to fS, and the price is said to be
the highest ever recorded it this time
of the year.
The trimmin?s" that general' ac
company a succulent spring lamb, mint
and green pea, retailed at ten Cents a
buticli EDd fifteen cents a quart, respec
tively. Frices of nearly all commodities are
advancing and dealers regard the out
look for any decrease in the immediate
future as not encouraging.
Tes Santa Rosa, the first passenger
and freight steamship flying the Ameri
can a? to commence a regular service
between New York and San Francisco
and Seattle ha started on her maiden
trip around the Horn. The opening of
the Panama canal will revolutionize
the American shipping interests, to say
nothing of the world traffic that will
profit by the shorter route. The Straits
of Magellan will soon become one of the
lonesome highways of a great maritime
trade.
Tbkks are a round dozen candidates
for assessor down in Lincoln county and
the democratic primary is yet six
months off. The cleverest and best peo
ple under the canopy of high heaven
live in old Lincoln but their love for of

but it has been told that some of the

Th Washington Senate ha passed a
bill prohibiting the intermarriage of
w hites and colored races except where
both are citizens of the United Slates.
The bill is said to have been devised to
prohibit Japanese from marrying white
women. According to this there is no
bar placed on the Cauc&ssian and the
JCeero, both being American born. Most
of the States have passed laws probibit
the marriage of w hile and blacks.
Salooss are running wide open at
Lebanon again after a dryness lasting
nearly eight years. Five bar-rooms and
two quart houses secured licenses and
some of them are already doing busi
ness. Tbey will sell lots of booze, of
course, but if they abide by the rules as
laid down they will have to keep their
eyes open or pay a lot of fines. In the
first place the license has been fixed at
(1,000 a year for saloons and 1300 for
quart houses. Those who procure license
will have to give bond and security to
live up to the spirit as well as the letter
of the existing laws. Tbey are to dis
ylay no immodest oi immoral pictures;
allow no chairs, settees or lounges in the
saloons; permit no gambling of any kind;
they shall have no pool or billiard tables;
music, vocal or instrumental, in the
room or building is prohibited; no fe
male of ill repute shall enter the saloon,
with which there shall be no connection
with any other apartment; no person
under 21 years shall be permitted to en
ter the saloon under penalty of (50, and
a sizn shall always be conspicuously dis
p'ayed rodinc; "Xo minors allowed in

That he hopes to see the deserters
from the standard of the republican
party back in the fold in 1916. was the
declaration of President Taft, who was
the principal speaker at the Lincoln day
dinner at Philadelphia. We believe the
President would really like to see his
party get together but we do not be
lieve that either he or hts children will
see such a thing. The repuolican par
ty is so dead that putrefaction has set
in.
The "money-t-usi" committee, who
followed William D. Rockefeller to his
private apartments on Jekyllslsnd, Ga.,
in the personel of Chairman Pujo and
counsel, Samuel Untermeyer, got little
information for their trouble. Only a
few questions had been answered when
the aged financier suffered a collapse.
The "shoe-last trust". is no longer to
be trusted with regulating prices, says
Uncle Sam's highest court. Wonder if
the pries of shoes will be lower under
the separated interests. Patented and
unpatented articles cannot be longer tied
together so as to control the unpatented
commoditv.
The young Chinaman who died of
acute indigestion in Asbury College at
Kicholasville would probably have been
living today had he kept on eating what
he was raised on. A chance of diet from
rats to Kentucky "grub" might have
been expected to give him trouble.
The Gotham police investigation goes
on with unabated vigor. There seems
to be a determined effort to complete
the job in detail. Games of chance pro
moters are to be given an opportunity to
tell all tbey know.
It is no use to steal wire unless you

The auto bandits who robbed a New

are evidently proceeding on the basis
that it is cheaper to steal a stock than it

Capital punishment will be abolished
and tipping will be a finable offense in
Indiana if bills introduced are passed by
the Legislature. It is possible that both
bills will become laws.
