Mr.. y. j. Harris, of Greenville, is
announced in this issue of the HERALD
"a candidate for Sergeant-at-Arms of
the next Senate of Kentucky. Mr..
Harris was a candidate four years ago
and gave way to Mountain man. We
think this portion of Kentucky is enti-
tied TO some of the offices of the Senate
and Legislature as nearly all Of the
State offices are filled by men from the
middle or eastern portion of the State.
Mr.. Harris is gentleman of Judgment,
ability, and well qualified for the posi-
| tion To which he aspires.
