Down at Paducah, Ky., they are having an exciting campaign over the

question of increasing the capacity of the municipal lighting and power plant The majority of the people

seem to favor this move, but the cor

poration interests are flghting.it with

all their energy. Yesterday City Con

troller Omer G. Whelan, received a communication from the editor of the Paducah Morning Register, who is an ardent supporter of municipal ownership. He asked for information concerning a report received in Paducah

; that the municipal plant in Richmond

was a failure and that the city intended to dispose, of the "white elephant." The letter in full, reads as follows: "Dear Sir: We are having a redhot time over the municipal ownership question in this city, and an ally of the corporation interests in fin afternoon paper yesterday stated, 'Richmond ,Ind., five year,s ago spent $200,000 for an electric light plant and that it had recently closed a deal for. its sale for the reason that it had lost a great deal of money. "As the statement sounds so unusual, and desiring to get at the facts and history of the case, I ask you to give them to me by return mall, and if possible send me a copy of the last report of your city on the lighting plant. "Yours very truly, "JAMES E. WILIIELM." Mr. Whelan's answer to this request was' to secure three copies of the Palladium, containing the report of the investigating committee and forward

ing the same to the editor of the Register. "I guess that will set to right the report current in Paducah con

cerning the Richmond municipal lighting plant," remarked Mr. Whelan after mailing the copies of the Palladi

The oldest resident of Richmond and Wayne County, Mrs. Rebecca Estelle; died at an early hour yesterday

morning at the home of her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Elizabeth Estelle, 113 South Thirteenth street. Mrs. E telle was in her ninety-eighth year. She was a resident of this city and county for many years and always enjoyed the best of health up to last fall, when she began to decline. Since then she had been very feeble. Mrs. Estelle was born In the State of New Jersey, in 1808 and came to this city in 1841, twelve years after her marriage to Richard Estelle, who died in 1871. The deceased was the mother of two sons, William and Samuel. Samuel now resides in California, but the other son died a number of years ago. Her only grandchild is Harry Estelle, of Dayton, O., formerly of this city. The funeral will take place Monday

at 10 o'clock, at the home. The burial will be at Earlham cemetery. Friends

The Freshmen Track candidates are now training for their several events for the meet with the athletes of Garfield school. Although there are only a few athletes in the Freshmen class, they are expected to take away from - Garfield the cup which that school has won and held for the past two years. There will be a debate ia the high school chapel Monday morning June 4. Any one may go into the debate which will be against the second term Sophomores. The question for debate has not yet been decided upon. The High School Orchestra did not practice this week as the history classes took possession of the hall.
