bond issue of $20,000
is adopted, the provision of this
ordinance will provide funds for

fire hydrants on this line.

A Striking Contrast.
The Railroad Administration.
controlling properties worth
over $20,000,000,000, and the
handliug of which hears closely
on the prosperity of the entire
country, propose tc spend $1,000,000
in advertising for passenger
travel. The tea associations
of the United States, with
a view to increasing the consumption
of tea. propose to
spend $2,000,000 in an advertising
campaign, and one sugar
company is to spend $2,500,000,
so it is reported, to advertise its
brand of sugar.
The National Government, controlling
the railroads with their
$20,000,000,000 of investments
prepares to spend $1,000,000 for
advertisement, the tea dealem
will go to $2,000,000 in their
advertising campaign, and one
sup.gr company $2,500,000!
