December 10th, 1884.
Ed. SOUTH KENTUCKIAN:
On the night of the 9TH INST, a
pleasant dance was gwen at the resi-
dence of Mr.. Gross Wills, near Gar
rettsburg. The night was threaten
ing and in consequence compare
lively small crowd was in attendance,
nevertheless the dancing was enjoy;-
bic as proven by the late hour to
which the guests remained. Mr.. and
Mrs. Wills deserve the thanks of all
present for their kind and hospital e
entertainment.
The series of meetings under tie
conduct of Revs. Evans and Hopper,
at Bennettstown, closed few day s
ago. The meetings were largely at
tended and resulted in 81 additions
and the general upbuilding of the
church.
Mr.. L. L. Stephens had a sale of
his personal property on last Friday.
at which a good deal of stock and a
considerable quantity of household
and kitchen furniture was sold. All
articles offered brought good prices
and the sale was entirely satisfactory.
Mr.. Walter White, Of this vicinity,
also sold his personal effects on Sstur-
day as he contemplates soon moving
to the Kentucky Purchase. Your
correspondent does not know to what
portion of the Purchase Mr.. White
will 90, but wishes him success in
whatever place he may cast his for
tune.
DR.. Wilson has about completed
his new cottage and store house, and
they will be ready for occupancy in
a few days. They are quite nice
houses and constitute a good begin
ming for our new town, which by the
way, still lacks a name if not 80 local
habitation." DR.. Wilson has rented
his houses to Mr.. John Gardiner, of
Garrettsburg, and Mr.. Miller, of Mar
shall Co., KY, who will in short
time open a choice stock of goods in
their new store.
The Republican papers have in
dulged in much extravagant praise
of their late leader j. G. Blaine, but
| it remains for "IIiram" in his reflect
ions" to pass the most sacrilegiously
exaggerated eulogy upon the "Plume'l
Knight" or all the ridiculous pane
gyrics ever pronounced, that of CHI
ram" is the most absurd when he COM
pares Blaine, full of wickedness, to
the perfect Christ and even goes so
far as TO say that if Christ were de-
prived of his inspiration, Blaine
would be the greater of the two. AL
though Blaine will have no fat Office
to bestow upon, "Hiram," as return
for his gigantic complement yet he
ought to be given a position as can
wasting agent for Sir James "Twenty
years in Congress-" "IIiram's" much
praised "strong right arm" would be
of invaluable aid in defending him.

are sometimes said to meet with.

Hon. Austin Peay, is suffering from
a severe attack ofinfammatory rheu-
matism. Her physician says that her

not able to move her body in bed.
Mr.. Joe Garrett recently sold his
fine farm in this vicinity, to his faith
er-in-law, Mr.. Siddon, for the hand
,me price of $50 per acre. This sale
shows an upward tendency in the
value of real estate in this section.
Mr.. Garnett has bought Mr.. W. +.
Ragsdale's farm on the Clarksvllle
pike at the reported price of $53 per
acre.
The |. A. & L. railroad is now suf-
fering with what the NJ. DIS. term

doubtful.

AS the close of the year approaches
the negro laborers begin to seek
houses for another year. A few first
class hands have already been hired
in this neighborhood for $3.50 but the
ruling price will not be over $40 per
annum.
Owing to the exceedingly dry
weather very little of the tobacco crop
OF this section has been marketed but
in the next month or more provided
the weather be seasonable, large
proportion Of the crop will be put Oh
the market as there is a prevailing
belief among many of our planters
that the tobacco first sold will bring
the best prices.

barrel in the field and but little can
be bought at that price.
Wheat is looking very well, while
the pastures are still green and afford
good grazing.

Arrangements have been made for
President Arthur to open the New
Orleans Exposition by electricity to-
day at noon. A wire will connect
directly with the East room of the
White House and at the appointed
hour the President, in the presence of
the Cabinet, the Supreme Court, the
foreign Ministers and the presiding
officers of the House and Senate, will
declare the opening of the great Ex-
position and touchinga button set in
motion the complex and bewildering
mass of machinery thirteen hundred
miles away. This plan has been set
tied ON because the exigencies of the
public service rendered it impossible
for the President to be present. The
estern Union wires will be cleared

The Republican party in Kentucky
is still in hopeless minority, but il
has reason to be encouraged by its
record for the last eight years. The
majorities Of the Democratic party
at the three last Presidential elect
ions were as follows:
lS76-62,4 34; 1SS0-43,2 59 1885,
1913. This shows falling off in eight
years of 80, l0l and at the same rate
the Democratic majority will all be
swallowed up in six or eight years
more.

Office seekers will probably be inter-
ested to know thar Gov. Cleveland is
preparing for them. The following
item may not point a moral nor
adorn a tale" but it contains hint
when looked at from one standpoint !:
"a shoemaker at Wytheville, Va, a
few days ago wrote President-elect
Cleveland, asking for his measure for
pair of boots for the Inauguration.
Coy. Cleveland replied in polite
note, inclosing a $40 bill for the boots.
The shoemaker returned the money,
but the Governor insisted on paving,
and sent the money back, adding
that he would wear the boots inauga-
ration day."
Twenty d ollars for one pair of boots
would indicate that there is to be a
good deal of extra work about them.
Possibly the toes are to be metaled TO
make them durable enough to meet
the exigencies Of the change of adj
ministration.

HAVING A HARD TINE.

Those Democrats who are trying to
bolster up their national ticket by
falsehoods are being promptly called
to account, and exposed all around.
Allen o. Myers, Of Ohio, having in a
speech stated that the mother Of w.
b. Tomlinson, a Republican editor,
was a negro, Mr.. Tomlinsor called
upon Myers, compelled him to admit
that he did not know Mrs. Tomlinson,
and swore three times, in the presence
OF large number Of people, that he
lied. The life and character of the
Rev. Mr.. Ball, of Buffalo, N. Y, who
denounced Cleveland for immortality,
having been savagely attacked, the
Minister'S Association Of that city,
which includes clergymen of every
denomination, met and adopted reso-
lutions strongly eulogist,c OF the Rev.
Mr.. Ball, and condemning the unjust
and cruel attacks to which he has been
subjected.
The forgers of the Mrs. Lot NJ. Nor
rill letter ale also about to he ex'
posed, Mrs. Morrill, having, as pre-
liminary thereto, made an affidavit
r-citing that she never wrote o.
authorized the writing Of the lette
referred to. Taken altogether, thu
Democratic slanderers are having ;
tough time Of it.
Wood River times. [volume] (Hailey, Idaho) 1882-1915, 1884-09-20
NEVADA SURELY REPUBLICAN,.

In Nevada the Hon. William Wood.
burn has been pitted by the Republic
cans against Hon. Geo. W. Cassidy.
present Congressman from that State.
Mr.. Woodburn, or, as he is better
known, "BilIy" Woodburn, was born
within two miles of the famed vale Of
Avoca, county of Wicklow, Ireland,
his parents being near nei2hbors OF
John Fosters, the rancher who now
lives a few miles below Bellevue. He
came to Nevada, and worked in the
mines for years. Having developed
quite an ability as speaker, he was
induced to study law, and was soon
admitted to the bar, where he took y
front rank. In 1876 he was elected
to Congress, being returned by AL un.
precedeutedly large majority. This
ratler spoiled him, as during his so.
iourn in the East he achieved nothing
particular. When he returned to
Nevada he was no longer the plain
"Billy" WOODBURY. whom we had all
known; he had dropped the plain
English to which his friends were ac-
customed and picked up instead about
all the verbal mannerisms then ahoat
in the East. His conversation was so
frequently interlarded with such ex-
pressions as "I.o, and behold !""'Pon
honah!" ETC., as to be disgusting.
George w. Cassidy, Democratic
newspaper man, succeeded him, and
has since held the Office. AS Mr..
WOODBURY. has been renominated. it
is fair to presume that he has dropped
his silly aHectation, and in that case
he will be elected, as the miners OF
Nevada have always had high opin-
ion of him. Nevada may therefore
be safely put down in the Republican
column this year.
