THE MESSAGE
EAECUTlNh Or + I'm
March 90, 1879.


The following is Gov. Marks message
and accompanying communication from
railroad representatives, relative to the
settlement of the State debt, sent to the
Legislature on the goth instant:
Gentlemen Of the Senate and HouS' Of
ReDresentatSues:-I have the honor TO
submit herewith the accompanying com
munication from the railroad companies
of the State. It will be seen from their
communication that the railroads pro-
nose to abandon all claims to-charter
exemptions and submit to such assess
mcnt of their property as will require IL
to contribute from eighty to one hun
dread thousand dollar per snnum upon
tax of forty cents. This offer on the
mart of the railroad companies to con-
tribute to the common burden is move
in the right direction. For obvious rea-
sons the railroad companies are largely
Interested in a satisfactory adjustment OF
the State debt and as they declare them
selves for settlement that will not ex-
coed a tax of forty cents for all purposes
it simply remains for you to determine
whether you will meet them on that
basis. 1t is apparent that II the ralIroau
companies and the taxpayers OF the
State can unite upon common grouno
that a satisfactory settlement Will anaeol-
ateIv follow. AS the Taxpayers OF the
State are mere interested in the amount
thew have TO pay as taxes than they are
| in the details of the settlement adopLeo,
| it is respectfully suggested that you nrst
| determined the measure of taxes you are
willing to levy and let the details OF the
| settlement follow. AS the people III the
convention have a number of times de-
clared their ability and willingness to
to submit to a tax of forty cents, am
of the opinion they will Tatlty settle
ment upon that basis. While this sub
iect remains unsettled it will continue
! to be a fruitful source OF dlstraction ahu
! expense to the State, and II IL is In YOU
power to reach a just settiement OF IL a.
! yOur present session it ought to De uone
! ANY settlement you may agree upon VII
have nv concurrence, which Will no
require a greater rate of tax than forty
! cents. which does not make the coupons
receivable for taxes, and which proVldei
! for a submission of the settlement ADOPT
cd to the people for their ratlncatlon o.
rejection at the ballot box.
If You reach basis of settlement,
suCgest that you fix q minimum amount

Judge j. III. Elliott, of the Court OF
Appeals, of Kentucky, was assassinated
on the street in Frankfort, last Wednes-
day. A dispatch from that city to the
OoaGTer-Jor1y4pal gives the following par
ticulars of the deplorable tragedy: At
lis D. m, In front of the ladies entrance
of the Capital Hotel, Col. Thos. Buford,
Of Henry county, shot and killed Judge
John NJ. Elliott, of the Court of Appeals.
The weapon was double-barrelled shot
gun. loaded with twelve buck shet to
the barrel. Judge Elliott, in company
with Judge Hines, was coming up Ann
street, when they were met at the steps
at the side entrance of the hotel, by
Buford, who appeared equipped for
hunting. Buferd spoke first, saying,
''Judge, believe 1 will go snipe hunt
ing; won't you go along?" Judge Elliott
replied, "No." "Wen, them" said
Buford, won't you go and take drinks"
At this point, Judge Hines turned away
and had gone about six feet when the
gun was fred and Judge Elliott fell upon
the sidewalk without uttering word.
Buford looked down upon him and said,
ssPm sorry" he then lifted his head
and put his (Buford's) hat under it.
Judge Hines turned back and tried to
raise the body, but life was extinct. de
thought it was an accident until Buford
spoke to the deputy sheriff and police
man whe came up to the scene. Buford
gave up his gun saying to the policeman
''Be careful with that gun; put twelve
buckshot in it for Pryor" Submitting
to arrest, he was taken before Esquire
Gwynn, and, upon brief examination,
was committed to Jail. On his way to
the magistrates office, or before he
started, BufOrd handed letter to the
deputy sheriff, addressed: whoever
may get this note ask earnestly to de-
liver it to the person to whom 1t is ad-
dressed" The contents were:
Capital Hotel, March %, 1879.-What
ever may happen to me, l desire that
my niece, Annie o. Wallace, shall have
everything, both in equity and law,
that belongs to me. only ask that my
bedy shall be laid by my sister, Mary
Buford, whom loved so, and whose
robbery and assassination wish to try
to avenge. THos. BUFoRD.
The body of Judge Elliott was taken
to room in the hotel, and a coroner's
inquest was held and the following YER
dict rendered:
eve, the jvry, find that the dead
now before us is that of John NJ. Llliott,
of Boyd county, Kentucky, who was at
the time of his death judge of the
Court of Appeals and residing temper
lrily at Frankfort, was killed and muir
Tered in that city by being shot through
A'e body by Thomas Buford with

IT seems to us that the stere-keep'
ing business is over done in this Sec
ton of country. There are too many
ANAL establishments scattered here
and there in every neighborhood.
The business Of legitimate, trained
merchants is being ruined by adven'
tnrers. Goods of all kinds are ex'
ceedingly cheap now and the prohts
are small. To make respectable
living and secure small income 8
man must sell a large amount OF
goods. When there are so many
stores aud the business divided out
among 80 many sellers, no one VIII
make any money. There are a.
least a dozen so-called merchants
in Hawkins county who wouid make
more money if they would turn their
attention to raising corn and pota-
toes and fattening hogs and cattle
for market. Our people are buying
too many store goods any how. loo
much money is being sent abroad TO
nav for these things which ought to
be kept and used mere among Us :"
improving our homes ana enrlcning
our own people. If there were few
o. storas there would be less money
snent in this way. This thingis get
