The new tariff bill reduces the duty
on automobiles from 45 to 30 per cent.,

tou are just bound to have machine o
foreign make.
"I believe the men selected to serve
the people, elective or appointive, should
be clean, honest and sober men, and to
that end I submit my claims to the peo
ple." That's the way a candidate for
commissioner at Lexington announces.
He is evidently a good man and, knows
it. or thinks he does, and expresses it
even at the risk of an exhibition of egotism.
Gov. Hooper has called the Tennessee
Legislature into extra session again, ap
parently not convinced that it has dis
graced the State past redemption. Ei
ther he is a fool or crazy to tempt fate
again.
After less than a month of married
life, the bride of Former Kin? Manuel.
of Portugal, has become estranged from
ber husband and she will return to her
father. Prince William. We could have
told you that a sensible girl would not
live Ion ir with a man who smoked a ci
garette during his wedding march, as
tbe pictures of it disclose, even if she
was foolish enough to marry him after
his escapade with the variety actress.
A dispatch from Pikeville says a wo
man was arrested there for bootlegging.
Where did she carry it !

News and Comment
A "cop is on trial in Cincinnati for
calling tbe mayor a "pinbead." The
mayor is playing in luck not to have a
worse epethet applied. We have heard
much worse things said of such officials
Irishman who will not submit to that
sort of criticism. He is the veritable
bad man from bitter creek, and Brer.
Vreeland had, best not deaden over his
line.
Chairman Underwood says it is the
lowest tariff for years. Good. When it
is gotten entirely to a revenue only bas
is, tbe lime won't be long before that
much-desired hope of free trade and
sailors' rights will be ushered in.
A Fleming ' county man settled the
question of what to do with mother-in-laws
by cutting a hole in his when she
tried to separate him and his wife.
The crop of fools grow apace. An or
ganization, which does'nt give its name,
has petitioned the PostmasterGeneralto
exclude the Bible from the mails, be
cause it contains obscene and immoral
matter. Usually when the suggestion
is made to bar books from the mails for
that reason, the result is increased sales
and greater reading gf them. If that is
the case in this contention, good may
come out of evil intention.
When the ocean going tugGatun made
the initial trip through the Gatun chain
of locks in the Panama Canal last Fri
day, the cost to that time had been $295,
587,558.. Concurrent with the announce
ment comes one from tbe President of
Peru that when the canal is finally
opened, beef from that country will sell
here at 10 cents a pound. If that is true
then the ditch will be worth all and
more that it has cost.
EditorGraham Vreeland, of the Frank
fort State Journal, accuses us of writing
an article in the Lexington Herald in
which anger jras exhibited against the
intelligent type setter for the emascula
tion of copy, in "puerile words." Never
desiring credit for anything, good or
bad, that we are not entitled to; we will
say for tbe benefit of the Frankfort man
that our side partner, Mr. Enoch Gre-
han, is the author of those "puerile
words" and that he is tbe kind of an
Mrs. Nicholas Longworth is going to
make a trip around the world and leave
Mr. Nicholas Longworth alone in Cin
cinnati, giving as a reason that Nick is
not acquainted with the same crowd
that she is. As Mrs Nick is said to
drink high balls and smoke cigarettes,
Nick should be glad he is not.
Good Roads Days.
Gov. McCreary has issued a proclam
ation calling upon the people in every
county in the State of Kentucky to work
on the roads in their respective counties
on Friday and Saturday, October 24 and
25, commencing at 8 o'clock in the morn
ing each and continue until 5 o'clock in
the afternoon.
"The county judge and engineer of
each county are directed to aid the peo
pie in complying with this request, and
they are authorized to select such per
sons as may be needed to assist.
"In every county where there is no
engineer or where they fail to act, the
tbe sheriff or other persons are author
ized to organize and comply with this
proclamation."
If everybody will respond,, there will
be much more pleasure and profit in
traveling over roads this winter.

Offers a Big Temptatioa
A negro, arrested for selling liquor in
this city, told the arresting officer. Dep
uty U. 8. Marshal Coleman, that he had
averaged about $7 profit on every gallon
sold. He stated, however, that a white
man had a "take out." With such an
enormous profit, it's no wonder so ma
ny are tempted to engage in the nefari
ous practice. Danville Messenger.

Blame The Hens.
"Do you furnish affidavits with your

tively refused to sign them."

Recovered From Junk Pile.
The value of "secondary metals"
exclusive of gold, silver, platinum, iron
and aluminum recovered in the United
States in 1912, reached the enormous
total of $77,395,843, compared with $52,-
585,390 in 1911, according to J. P. Dun-
lop, of tho U. S. geological survey, an
increase of $25,000,000, or nearly 50 per
cent
"Secondary metals" are those recov
ered from scrap metal, sweepings, skim
mings, dross, etc., and are so called to
distinguish them from the metals deriv
ed from ore. which are termed "prima
ry metals."
Tbe values given for the secondary
metals are arbitrary and are based upon
tbe approximate average value of the
primary metals for the year. While
junk dealers and collectors frequently
pay low prices for small quantities of
scrap metals, competition results in good
prices for carefully assorted products in
large quantities.
After remelting or refining the metals
are sold at only slightly lower prices
than new metal. These secondary met
als displace an equivalent quantity of
primary metals and must be considered
in any estimate of stocks available for
consumption in any year.

seeds at attractive prices. See us
