A New Mayor With No Money.
The new intendant and wardens
were inducted into office Saturday
evening.
There will be much howling and
growling and kicking because thi
new officers do not "turn over th
earth," but they will just have t
howl and growl and kick, for it take
money to do things. There was z
money in the treasury to be turne
over to the new set of officers, at
the street tax for this year went
pay Hovey Nealey for being a m
shal here.
It is up to the newly-elected Offic
to devise some means for rAis
funds to be used on the town. H
they will do it we know not, but a
pose a tax on property and a busit
tax will be levied. Something of
sort will be done, for there is no o.
way to raise funds unless some la
he-rted gentleman will donate
of cash to the town.

that all ciiizenA residing on eachl sid
of a certain street get together, di

on each corner, the town paying one
third the cost and the citizens th,
other two-thiros. TIhis would be th
most just and equitable way of th:
town having the benefit of lights, amt
in that way every citizen will be mor,
or less benefitted. But as it is, witi

off by 10 p mn., there is no use, what
ever, in the town being made pay fo

do not see the need of being taxed ti

know the citizens will raise a tre

continue to use the old kerosene Ian
