Ah, hare Is another turn of the

Another leajrue Is sone;
‘ Take a atrona n*w trip and araap

And then ao on—so on: ao on!

Add the Voice Is the voice of the
hastening years
“Go on! fco on! go on!’'

THKY DKSKKVK PRAISE
T
&
A
The i'ress, and Standard desires
to commend the, attorneys of the
local bar and others for their pat
riotic service to the registrants of
the county. It ^is a huge task they,
’.have undertaken, v *to fill* in the
questionnayies for the dSore than
three thousand registered ybien in
the county. When - It J* known
that the quickest ofte of these
blanks can be filled out in twenty
nGnutes, it will' be seen what a
huge task thijUis. and to fill ono
out ib that time is possible only
when the re^strant has gone over
the blank and knows the answers
to the questions * without any ex.*
planations being made... It is a
Splendid service these citizens arc
rendering free of charge.

The comuiitteiy ¥00111# are where
the battle* of legislation are large

thought is given to laws than' is
generally irelieved. We believe it
would b«v unwise for* the legisla-

which will affect the State in (tit

IS IT IIEINCi ItltOKEN DORN?
V-
v The. idea of the feeling <»f cguin-
\y'
.
dry against town is being
apidlr
relegated t-u the rear along trfth a
'.ntcrsstlpgly *» those frpjn the
•ow». In fact Vo arc beginning to
think they can do hotter, for they
talk of more dgnaible mad a^riou*
things. • Another thing which some
observant person hare been aotlag
is that- the town are really being
run b? the people from the coun
try. for «n moot casco the mpn who
bold thd poeitloBs of iafluence la
the towns Are those who nre fresh
from the country. We are glad ot
this, and we shall be glad when ev-
■cry vestige of prejudice between
town and country is finally broken
down. The war/ls going to be a
great leveller and when the son of
the millionaire marches la the bat
tle line by the aide of the man from
the furrow, he will learn that there
can be as'much redl manhood there
as if the man from the soil had
been born on Broadway., It'a the
man after all which will eventually
count. And that is true democ
racy. ' • “
SALARIES SHOULD HE RAISED
The session of the legislature
which is now session Is face to
face with d condition which will
have to be met, and which will
necessitate the paying of better
salaries to the men who are chos
en to‘serve as public officials. With
out exception State and county of
ficers are al) being paid too sniaH a
pittance for their services. This
was true several years ago. and it
ia especially true now that the cost
of living has been mounting so
high. The greatest opposition to
the raising of salaries has been
coming from the people of the coun
try distrieja. who do not realize
what it takes to, live In town ' or
city these days. A farmer, for ex-
lin.ple. can live .on very Uttle cash,
r he raises nearly .everything he
uses. His food bill is reduced tv>
a minimum, and hi* fuel bill Is
nothing much. Not so with the
man in the city or the towjQ. Hs
must pav for everything, and at
prices which peopl^ feel dispose*!
to charge. So a salary which
seems large to the man who buys
little .of his living, .is small to the
man' who buys all.
The Preas and Standard is fre-
say- that all salaries need ral«-
Speaking of the county offi
cers. there is only about one office
in the county which pays enough
for the holder to Jive on., god that
not princely. The present legisla
ture should raise - their salaries,
irrespective of whether or not theii
terms . havo expired, if it can Tie
done in enp way under the preset-*
constitution- If the people of the
coimty are not ah!** to pa> for hav
ing Mieir publje work done. ;Thet

We feel that the metgr -system
is correct, and the Interests of the
town and of the people will be con*,
served and strict Justlte done, by
installing meters. But to force the
people to pay for the meter is ex
ercising an authority which is not
right. If the town desires to. in
stall the water, meter system, then
let the towri purchase them and In
stall them without cost to the user.
Let the town fix a water rate which
