Through the columns of the Palladium Monday morning, Elwood McGuire said in regard to the proposed vehicle tax "I am opposed to such an ordinance. It is said that vehicles must be licensed or the tax duplicate increased. What is the differenceit is only taking money out of oue pocket and putting it in another. No ! taxes are already too high in this city without increasing the rate." . The above statement may be said to represent the concensus of opinion of representative business men of Richmond. If such opinions count for much with the city fathers, they will show considerable wisdom in shelving a proposed ordinance so objectionable to the citizens of Richmond. ' . LOCAL DRAMATICS. ' Councilman Peck's new operatic production 'To tax or not to tax will probably " be rehearsed at " the' City Hall Monday evening. SCARCITY OF SUNSHINE Has Marked the Effect on Greenhouse Plants--Been Little For ' ' A Month. 4 ' Although it may not have. been noticed, Kichnumd. has had 'little 'or no sunshine for nearly three weeks. Before the wann weather of the last few days there was over a week of either rain or snow and even on the warm days at the beginning 'of the week the sun failed to make a very strong appearance. This weather will have a decided effect on the llowers ,of the local greenhouses, according to Vernon Grave, as without sunshine there is THE PALLADIUM IDEA. a.

NEW MACHINERY IS INSTALLED AT CHAMPION ROLLER MILLS THUS MATERIALLY INCREASING CAPACITY. OUTPUT NOW 200 BARRELS Indiana Wheat Is of Highest Grade Making Products From Local Mills Popular. New machinery has recently "been installed at the Champioii;-.,; Roller Mills, which increases the output of that factory to 200 barrels 7 of flour each day. The plant has been ruuning steadily for over two years and the business has been growing rapidly. The improved machinery was installed in order to put out a finer grade of flour than formerly, in addition to increasing the capacity. Trade is now demanding the best grade of flour, and new. and improved ma chines are ; being made which must De pui in operation in oruer 10 remain in the' best markets. '..The business of the plant has justified the improvements and large orders are on file which will necessitate the manufacture of several thousands of barrels as quickly as possible. Most of the flour made by this company is sold in southern markets, but a large percentage has, been shipped to Europe, the principal ports being Glasgow and Dublin. .... The price of " wheat in the local market is 88 cents per bushel, which is higher than in the New York markets. Better flour can be made from wheat grown in Indiana than from any other kind, and this is the cause of the ..popularity of the products of the local mills. The best grades of flour sell for from 70 to SO cents for.25 lbs., while. second grades seU for' Go cents. . The wholesale price on the' 'barrel is $4.60,..

One of the main topics discussed at the convention was the railroad transportation question. New Work For Festival Chorus. Beginning this week Gade's canta ta "The Crusader," conies of which have now arrived from the publish ers, will be put in rehearsal. Notwithstanding the name, this is a secular work, of the romantic school and of great-domestic interest. The cho rus numbers in the "Crusaders" are constructed along broader lines than those of the "Last Judgment," on eight-part divising being frequently required and the necessity for a good male chorus being imperative. In response to these demands it is urged that every chorus member be present and ready to sign promptly at 7:45 Wednesday night. CHORUS COMMITTEE. R. W. Hockett, of Cincinnati, general agent for the M. K. & T. Ry., and William Thome. Commercial agent of the Vaudalia were here yesterday calling at the railroad offices.

LOOK OVER THE ORCHARD Much That Can Be' Done to Protect the Trees During Winter. . In sections where. there 'am-heavy winds or snows, the orchardist- who does not visit his trees several times during the winter is running a great risk. Take a sharp saw and a hatchet and go through the orchard. The chances are one will find limbs bro ken, which if removed now, will save other branches later. Then there may be several branches swaying under the wind which can be saved if they are braced a little before heavy snows make , more trouble. Among the younger trees it may be that rabbits are at work, and their ravages can be stopped by one of these timely visits. There are a dozen things which may happen to the orchard during the winter which may be overcome, at least in part, by looking out for the trees at frequent intervals. Jefferson's Love of the Picturesque. "Joe Jefferson is up here drawing the worst house you ever saw," so wrote John Sefton to his relative, Mr. Barton Hill. But the houses which Jefferson was drawing were on canvas." The comedians Sefton and Jefferson were summer neighbors in Paradise Valley, Pennsylvania, the valley in whose peaceful shades Jefferson first met the suggestion of Rip as a possible character for himself. A barn was to be removed and Jefferson objected because he thought it too picturesque to be destroyed, but if it had to go, he declared his intention of making a painting of it, and bis doing so gave the facetious "Jemmy Twitcher", Sefton occasion for the jest.

There was a drop of over forty degrees yesterday, and the citizens of Richmond were once more greeted by; typical January weather. Saturday and Sunday the weather hovered about the 70 mark and ; Monday the mercury went up to 66 degrees, but yesterday morning at 10 o'clock it was 24 degrees above zero. The sudden appearance of the cold wave has sent many a festive spring garment back to the moth balls, there to repose for some moons to come. The winds charged up and down the streets yesterday like a brigade of cavalry, taking the breath away from many a pedestrian and the. noise of the zephyrs as they toyed with the long, weather beaten '.'

WILFRED JESSUP Richmond. Ind.. Jan. 22. 1906. love for painting, for his father and grandfather had been artists,, with the brush as well as with the buskin. Vine biege or rJelgrade, a comic opera by Cobb, was the first new pro duction, in ew York, in 17DG 07. For it, Mr. Jefferson's grandfather, Jo seph Jefferson, 1st, painted the scen ery, and in it he luayed the charac ter of Leopold. Mr. . Jefferson's father,-' Joseph ''Jefferson, 2nd, who, like his illustrious son, was born in Philadelphia, was more manager than actor, and more painter than either. As a boy he studied architecture and drawing, and he was also pupil to the scenic artist, Robert Coyle, an Englishman of repute at that period. From "Joseph Jefferson at Work and Play," by Francis Wilson, in the February Seribner's.
