ELDER DUDLEY, OF KENTUCKY.

The Richmond Kentucky Register
says that Elder Thomas p. Dudley, OF
Kentucky, u venerable minister OF
the Baptist church, preached in Rich
mond on Sunday last, to large audiences
of interested people, in the morn
ing in the Baptist, and in the
evening in the Presbyterian church.
In the eighty-second year of his age,
his hair white with the frosts of many
winters, and his eyes dimmed, his
mind was bright and vigorous, his
memory clear and retentive, and his
delivery graceful and effective to n
most wonderful degree.
Ia We copy the above because Dallas is
full of Kentuckians who read THE
HERALD, and for the purpose of brief
reference to the interesting history of
that venerable man of God, Elder
Thomas P. Dudley.
His father, Elder Ambrose Dudley,
long distinguished as an eminent Bap-
fist divine, removed at an early day
frsm Virginia to Fayette county, Ken
lucky. He reared tensons and three
daug ters, and lived TO see item all
married en- wei settled without hav-
ing lost a child-perhaps case un-
paralleled In this country. The late
celebrated surgeon, DR.. A. w. Dudley,
Of Lexington, was one of the sons.
Three Of them were officers in the war
of 1872. Several filled other response
BILE positions. One of the daughters,
Polly, marie l Major Benjamin Groves,
who was wounded and captured by the
British and Indians at the massacre
Of River Raisin, in January, 1919. He
was turned over to party of Indians,
BY the inhuman British commander,
to be taken. 10 Maiden, twelve miles
distant, He never arrived and was
beyond all subsequent doubt, barbar-
sously murdered by the savages. His
widow, ever cherlshing his memory
with spring-time affection, died since
the war In Missouri, aged eighty-four.
His only surviving child Is the widow
Of the late A. B. Chambers, ofthe st.
Louis Republican, 4 daughter worthy
ofspeh parents, and; q widow reflect
ing honor on such husband.
Elder Thomas P. Dudley, the subject
Of the above paragraph, was also
= wounded and taken prisoner Mt the

On the day that Mr.. Harwood, the

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

While having no personal feeling
whatever on the subject, yet as guard
ians On the watchtowers, and after
careful investigation Of the subject, we
tell the people OF Dallas county that
James Il. Barley has received his GER
tiiicate Of election as Sheriff OF the
county, given bond and taken the oath
of office. He is, therefore, under the
constitution and laws Of the State OF
gexas, the lawful Sheriff Of the county,
and no man except him or his legally
appointed deputies, Is authorized to act
~ Sheriff.
On the same grounds Alexander
Harwood Is the District Clerk Of the
county No man notlegally authorized
as his deputy, has any more right to
record deed, take an acknowledgment
as Clerk, or perform any duty pertain
ing TO the duties Of the Office, than has
u citizen of Arkansas. Ihe moment
these officers received certificates Of
election, took the oath, filed their
bonds and demanded possession Of the
offices, ih,t moment they, became
legal officers, and their predecessors,
Messrs. Brown and Laws, ceased to be
officers That this IL true in law, we
have no more doubt than that there Is
an iron bridge over the Trinity, and 10
twill be decided by the judicial tribun-
ais of the country To be perfectly
plain we maintain that j. M. Brown
is not Sheriff of Dallas county, nor is
John NJ. Laws, District Clerk. Their
acts as such are null aud void We
speak from legal view Of the case,
and stand justified by the ablest law
yers Texas ever had, and by the decis-
ions of the Supreme court, when the
lamented Hemphill, Lipscombe and
Wheeler adorned the bench.
Messrs. Brown and Laws were elected
four years ago, by the Democrats, when
large part of the people were disfran-
chised. Now The people are all free,
and they have elected Harwood and
Barkley. With all personal kindness
towards the former we must think
that, outside of the law, good faith
demands that they should surrender
the offices, and not repay former conf
dence by producing discord and endan-
gering the legal rights Of the multitude
by holding ON to that which does not
belong to them.

U. S. S.-Thc various friends of Walker
(the Governor), Withers, Goode, Stuart
Guild, Cochran, Montague, Horace Lacy
and Fayette McMullin are earnestly labor
ing for the success of their respective en-
hryo senators. We are inclined to the be-
lief that as matters now stand Withers has
more positive strength than any Of them
but in these troublesome times there is no tell
ing "what day may bring torth."- Nc
CauH to has paper.
Where does Colonel Withers live! is the
question that is now agtating the minds Of
some OF our exchanges. He ran on the State
ticket as a citizen OF WytheYile; but now
that he is brought forward as candidate fol
the United States Senate it seems that hi
lives in Richmond.-Mdrion Patriot.
Our contemporaries generally treat oul
mention of Governor McMullin in conncc
ton with the senatOrsbip as no joke. Well
who said it was?
II we ever were in earnest about anything
in our lives we are in the opinion that
geographical lines ought to be blotted out
| when. the selection of United States sena
| tor is to be made. The Legislature ought
only to consider who is the best man in the
| ,rhole State for the position, and then, with
out reference to what county or section he
lives in, elect him. If that individual should
happen to DE Fayette McMullin, Of South
west Virginia, close neighbor to Senator
Johnston, let his superior merits be &C
knowledged and his title to succeed Levi;
be made good. No joke about that Wythe
ellie Enterprise.
The FarmviIe Mercuy, the Bedford Sen
tinel, the Petersburg and perhaps other
papers, want South-side senator. Will they
take Governor Walker in preference to /;
Valley man or north Virginia man?
