The Future Of Kentucky.

Kentucky is steadily advancing.
Best of all, its growth is healthy. The
State is not wildly expending the peo-
pies money for improvements not de-
manded by public interests; but the
people of different localities, at their
own expense, are constructing improve
ments-especially turnpikes, the most
desirable of all for farmers-asth the needs
of their localities demand.
"The great resources of the State"
will he developed just so soon as it will
pay to do so, and the work will be ac-
complished in the only proper way-by
individual or private corporate capital.
Indeed, this good work is now i'm hand.
Work on the Kentucky river improve
ments is progressing; the Big Sunday
and the Chatteroi railroads are i'm course
of construction; surveys for the Cincin-
natl x Southwestern and the Richmond
x Southwestern roads are nearly COM
pleted. Ii is understood those under
taklngs are backed by ample capital,
and that the work on them will be
promptly pushed forward. The an
nouncement is just made, on what
seems to be good authority, that the
Kentucky Central will he extended to
Winchester.
According to the accepted figures, the
population of Kentucky increased 4l3,-
900 in the last decade. Kentucky is
not in the slough Of dependency; it is
not stuck in the mud. On the contrary,
the good old Commonwealth is on the
high road to prosperity The advance
of the State in population, wealth and
general prosperity was never more
rapid than il is to-day, and the outlook
as to the future never brighter.

A PAYING OCCUPATION.

The approach of the long winter evenings
call attention to the matter of lamp, for
without good light half the pleasure or
profit Is taken from reading or studying.
Coal oil Is now in general use for illuminat-
ing purposes outside of cities or large towns
where coal gas is used, and when a proper
lamp Is used IL Is the best substitute for sun
light yet discovered. The principle or plan
upon which the Student Lamp is constructed
may be said to be the best in use, but the
lamp itself has always had several objection
able features which we are glad TO see are
being done away with i'm the new aspirant
for favor, called the Home Lamp" man
ufactured by the Home Lamp Co.. of Cincin-
natl. The great objection To most ether lamps
keep them in order, and the poor light given
by them. The New Home Lamp is Nickel
plated, and almost fdc-SfBlitie of the Student
Lamp; II has a handsome ornamented clamp
by means of which the lamp can be at once
easily adjusted in any position upon the GEN.
ter table, piano, music rest, sewing machine
desk, or, by means of a handsome bracket,
which goes with the lamp, can be placed
upon the wall, and in whatever position il is
placed 1t is absolutely safe. This is the great
feature of excellence, but the New Home
Lamp combines also the patent argand burn
er, filling indicator and match box. No
lamp has ever before been received with such
unusual favor or received such strong recon-
mendatiOnS from the leading Journals of
ti=cinnati. II is also endorsed by such men
as the mayor amp postmaster, several insur-
ance presidents and express agents of that
city as the safest, most convenient and best
lamp made. The company desires Agents i'm
this locality, and any smart lady or gentle
man can make a handsome income during
TheIe is hardly dozen families in this coun-
try VINO Will not want one, and its price IL so
low as TO bring 1t within the reach ofall. For
further information address, Home Lamp

they will give you full particulars and ex-
elusive territory To canvass In. 6-i9-l0

Hayden II. Shouse Suicides.

Hayden II. Shouse county attorney
of Henderson county, and recently
master commissioner of the Henderson
circuit court, and IA prominent lawyer,
committed suicide i'm the Louisville Ho-
tel, Louisville, KY, last night week
ago by taking laudanum. He was about
81 years old, very intelligent, gifted
young man, but was addicted To strong
drink, which led him TO the gaming ta-
ble and caused him to take his own
life. He had been in Louisville since
the 22d ult. drinking and gambling, and
had lost heavily. He was son-in-law
of Judge :. B. Vance, of Evansville,

Kentucky.

Kentucky is destined 10 he one of
the richest States i'm the Union. With
wonderful deposits of coal, ore and
minerals; with thousands of the
best acres of ground on earth; with
broad rivers, great railroads, mighty
forests, and bold, knightly men, with the
prettiest women in the world and the
most hospitable homes on earth; with
splendid roads, thriving towns, and
everything but enterpising leaders and
practical statesmen, there is nothing to
hinder the growth of Kentucky, after
these weak leaders and, the dead poll
cy of the State are "laid on the shelf"
Let the enterprising people come to
the frontand Kentucky will grow like

nine years. The town and county is
now populated, apparently, with new
generation of people. | will tell the
present inhabitants something that will
astOnish many of them. | was made
Deputy Sheriff in 1880, and one man
could then do the entire business of that
office. The Legislature of the previous
winter raised the revenue tax from 81
cents to 10 cents Oh the 800 worth of
property, and the County Court had
raised the poll tax from S7l cents to 30
cents. The people almost rebelled
against this, and there was general
denunciation Of the Legislature and
County Court. The revenue due from
this county that year was $3.50. | paid
cash $3.50 and claims against the State,
had bought $500 and got my quietus.
The man running for the Legislature
then who could rely certainly on get
ting 500 votes was sure of his election,
and now his election would not be con-
sidered sure unless he could safely count
on 1900 or 1000 votes.
The amount of revenue to the State
from this county last year was $4,000.
