THE Gubernatorial contest is begin
ninS 10 wax warm, and that which
was supposed at first TO be one-sided
has assumed different phrase, and
every appliance usual in heated con-
tests are in requisition. DR.. Black
burn and Mr.. Underwood are running
at nearly dead lock in the counties
that have instructed, while Col. Jones
seems playing in the rear, relying on
his heels in the trial heat. 1t takes
sbout eight hundred votes in conven-
tion to nominate, and no candidate has
secured much over one hundred as
yet in the county conventions. There
is 70 telling at this crisis who will be
the winner. Much of Col. Jones
strength may be yet undeveloped,
while that ofihe others may be expend-
ed. A short tire Will determine
whether or not we will have warm
contest in the State convention. The
interest in Judge Alexander is
manifesiing itself very promi,ingly, he
will no doubt, develope strength. Hon.
+. ID. Walker has not consented TO en-.
gage in a scramble for the dignified
office Of Governor. This course il GER
iainly praiseworihy and merits the aP
rroval Of The people of Kentucky. We
endorse the motives of the Hon. Dan
Ia. Hughes, of Union county, Whose
sense Of propriety induced him Il
withdraw from the race for Lieutenant

CAPTAIN T. ID. MARcUM, Register
Of the Land Office, is a candidate tor
reelection. His management of the
Office has given general satisfaction.
and those who have had business
transactions herewith, during hls
term. speak in flattering terms, of the
prompt and efficient manner inwhich
he has performed his duties. lie has
held the position but one term, and
if qualifications and fidelity to pub

in selecting our officers, he is entitled

of the two Congressional Districts in

THE Court of Appeals has recently
decided two cases from our county
which have been pending in our CIR
cult for several years. The first case
was Collins VS.. Moseley, which was de-
cidei for Judge Moseley BY the Cir
cult Court, and the decision was af
firmed by the Appellate Court. The
controversy was as to the ownership OF
a portion of the walnut Grove" near
our town. Messrs. Walker & Hub
hard represented Mr.. Collins, and Hill
praetced the case for Judge Mosely.
The other case was a suit brought
by j. b. Stevens VS.. VIM. C. King,
% eaforce a lien upon the farm on
which the latter resided. King de-
Tended, claiming homestead right in
The land; Stevens controverted Kings
claim of homestead, alleging that his
debt was for the purchase price of the
land advanced by Stevens for King to
the estate of James King, deceased, of
which estate Stevens was admlnistra-
tor. Pending the litigation plaintiff
snd defendant both died. and the suit
was revived on both sides, and Mrs.
King filed an answer claiming both
slower and homestead, but the Circuit
Court ruled against her, and she prose,
cnied an appeal and the Court of Ap-
peals affirmed the decision. Hill for
plaintiff, Walker for defendant.

Compliments to ssRenYille"
Editor REDWOOD GAZETTE


It has been a matter of observation
with me for a lifetime that in every COM
munity-ncw and old-there exists an
order of people properly termed Croak-
ers. They might be separated into dis
tinct classes. but they belong to the same
species. We have the eoOD-FoR-NoTHING
Croaker, who accomplishes no good for
himself or anyone else. The whole aim
end, purpose and consummation of his
existance is to carp at, criticize and find
fault with the honest and earnest efforts
of his more energetic neighbor. You
will meet him inevitably on the sunny
side of the sidewalk in winter, on the
shady side of the sidewalk in summer
sitting on the counters of the stores in
the evening, frequents the hotels, barber
and blacksmith shops, always the loud
est talker, but the burthen of his speech
is DEFAMATION. He is the meancst of all
mankind-a man gossip-He is barna-
Gle on the surface of society impeding
progress. He is fungus growth de-
cayed. diseased, rotten-existing and sub
sisting on the body polite by the permits
sion of Providence las the same is per-
mitted in nature) for reasons inscrutible
to US.
We have the SELFISH Croaker. Sell
fishness permeates and interpenetrates
his whole being; more than that, it con-
troles, and overmasters the man; more
than that it CONSTITUTES the man. Ana
lyze him, dissect him, gut and scrape
him, try him by fire, subject him to all
the tests of the labratory. and the only
residuum obtained is pure unalloyed un-
adultcrated selfishness. All aims, all
schemes. all purposes, all hopes desires
and expectations begin and end in self.
He has more enterprise than the good
for-nothing croaker but owing to this
normal condition he opposes all projects
which do not by some direct process put
the almighty dollar into his own pocket.
Narrow minded and short sighted he is .
mortal enemy TO all public enterprises no
matter what ultimate and indirect bene
At he might derive from them. Conse-
quently he belittles, disparages and casts
contempt upon the efforts of more ''liber-
able souls" So utterly abject is his self
ishness that he would refuse even q pres
ent benefit if some one else shared in it.
A five cent piece, if it was his own, held
up before him would shut out from sight
all of Gods universe. -
Such men sometimes succeed where
larger minded and larger hearted men
have failed. The maggot will thrive on
the dead CARCASS where nobler animals
would stsrve. This class Of the species
is more dangerous element in society
than the good-for-no croaker be.
