POLITICAL.
Last Saturday the voters of this pre-
cinct turned out very well to hear the
candidates speak. Some of the candi-
dates thought they had the largest
crowd here they had had to hear them
in the county. Let every Democrat re-
member that next Saturday at 3 O'Clock
is the primary convention, if you are
Democrats turn out and do your duty,
If you are sluggards i'm the party you
will not be expected. Much depends
upon our success this year, and it is the
duty of every Democrat in Ohio county
to be present at all its meetings, 40 that
there will he perfect harmony i'm the
party, if for no other purpose.
You never hear of a Republican con-
vention that every Republican, is snotthere
they always turn out solid and that Is
the reason they keep so well organized,
and are enabled to have the success
they have.
COAL MINING.
I.P. Barnard, last week, bought the
remaining sixteen years of the Taylor
Mines lease from the Louisville compa-
ny that leased il nine years ago. After
his purchase he sold one-half of il to j.
b. Speed of Louisville. The two will
now make large amount of money.
Mr.. Barnard will still superintend the
works, and, having made money for a
i dozen men, he doubtless will make mill
lions for himself and Speed. A more
clever set of gentlemen are hard to find
than the men who are engaged at Tay-
lor mines. In fact the men at the three
mines near here, McHenry, Ham
ilton and Taylor, are hard to beat.
| A new school district has been made,
including Taylor mines-with Mrs. Eide
Wise teacher-John Gibson, Y. Bar
rass and VIM. Espy, trustees.

well, but Arms is good one.
