Crono, Kecordor; Win McKim n y, Guide Tho city dads wero petitioned at their last meeting to buy live arc lamps to bo placed on tho principal streets. Just why only live lamps wero asked for wo do not understand, as this would hardly bo sullijiont to light up thu business poition of the city and wero tlioy placed elsewhere it would bo neccessary on n dark night to take a lantern to go from ono to tho other. Tliero was also a proposition from a gentleman in Louisville read in which ho asks permission to put in an acoty lono gas plant. Of course what wo want is light, any old kind of light .vill do in tho absonco of eloctrio lights. But just at this tinio with the city soino $000 or $700 in debt wo should hardly fool like buying very many extras.
