rested Jackson for killing Mr.. Hull.
What did Mr.. Moore do? He defended
Jackson as far as the law required him to
do, even to the Supreme Court, and our
county paid him for it, which was right.
But he went beyond that. He even al
lowed Mrs. Westlake, an old lady that
raised Jackson, to sell all the cow she
possessed to raise him some over thirty
dollars to go to Columbus to work on the
sympathies of the Governor to save the
young mans neck, and it would take SIS
to take him there and back and leave him
$25 of fee from the poor old lady. He
also had the Jones boys writing and beg
ging their friends in Kentucky to raise
all the money they could for him when
he knew Jackson county was paying him
fully for defending them. 1 know of a
number similar to these; they are merely
samples. Now I leave your readers to
judge which they think would go farthest
for fee, John T. Moore or I. 1 am no
candidate, and presume never will be
again; but will live in Jackson county
with friends of both political parties
whom respect, and trust they know
and respect me. If Mr.. Moore wants to |
work for his preferred candidate for sher-
if, let him do so honestly, and not make
his point (as he claims) of extravaganza,
by misrepresenting what he knows to be
otherwise, although that is about as con-
'istent with him as travelling all over our
county last year making temperance
speeches, and this year following up and
for Leo Ebert, who is Presi-
lent of the Liquor Association of this
state, and opposes temperance in every
orm. The place to correct any illegal
work of mine while in office, is in the
Jourts of Jackson, and not around in the
ownships, by some political trickster.

Great Excitementi

These are exciting times. Everybody
is inquiring the latest news from the
political field, and everything seems to
be chaos of excitement. But there is
one point where you do not have to ask
the news. The facts are spread out be-
fore you in stacks, piles, boxes and
bundles, not to mention show cases. That
place is the great Clothing Depot of
Sternberger Brothers, corner of Main
and Broadway. This great stock of
goods will astonish you as to beautiful
styles and low prices. Go to Stern
berger's and dress up.

MILES OF LIGHT !!
Twelve Hundred Men in Line.
HowLs OF DEMoCTAT1C COYOTES !!

Tuesday was big day in Jackson. In
the afternoon Hon. Stewart L. Woodford
addressed large meeting in the Fair
Grounds, but the big display was at night.
Trains from Glen Roy and Wellston came
in with great crowds, the people of Jack
son turned out with torches, and pro-
cession of over thirteen hundred-includ-
ing one hundred boys, organized in a
company to themselves-formed in the
streets and paraded around town.
At the corner of Main and Broadway
the procession was greeted by drunken,
bowling, Democratic mob, who raved.
and yelled, and howled, at everybody who
passed. It was music to us; we had
heard the rebel yell before.
This crowd of would-be bullies would
have attacked the procession if they had
dared. We enjoyed the howls of the
beaten and mad Democrats, because we
knew they read the handwriting on the
woll Among the bowling hoodlums on
the street, we noticed such eminent states
men as Johnny Clark, Harry Gould, Jim
Burt, Neese Carr and others. Clark wept
on Bill Owens breast, and refused to be
comforted These fellows greeted us
with howls and curses as we passed. Had
the light been turned into the regions of
darkness it would not have disclosed a
worse lot of bowling imps. But we never
abuse corpse because of the squeals of
the death agony. Our heart bled for the
poor fellows, but the procession moved
on.
A beautiful feature Of the parade was
the horseback procession of ladies wear
ing white plumes in their hats. This idea
originated with w. c. Evans, who was
assisted by Sheriff Cherington and others.
The whole procession was grand affair,
and the Democracy cannot speak of it
calmly.

The Soldiers Reunion on last Friday
was grand success, in every way. The
citizens crowded in and spoiled part Of
the Sham Battle, but everything passed
off nicely, an immense crowd being in
town. 1t is regretted that the business
men did not give the boys better pecuni-
AIRY assistance, as they reaped rich har-
vest from the crowd the boys drew to
town. Want of space forbids us speaking
more at length of this big day in Jackson.

The New Bakery.

On Saturday we went down to look a
the new building on the corner of MaiI
and Church streets. Going into the mid
die room we saw that it was finished, in
elegant style, and the rear portion was
piled full of boxes marked Lewis & Nor
gam" The proprietors were still carry
ing in boxes. We remarked that it looked
like their establishment would be some
thing much larger than a bakery. Mr..
Lewis said they would open up business
about the middle of this week, and if we
would then come in, we would see what
they are doing.
We intend to go and see them.
There will be held, special quarterly
conferences, and financial meetings at the

Gov. lIoadley, of Ohio, has given
the following expression of his views
in regard to the coming campaign:
II favor q tariff for revenue, avoid
ing monopolics but carefully discrim
mating 50 as to encourage labor, and.
as far as possible, so constructed in
its intelligent details as to give relief
to oppressed commerce and restore
the American flag TO the seas, but
not to shock or rudcly disturb III
vested capital. This is the Ohio
platform, on which we carried Ohio
last fall, and with Tilden or Payne
as the candidate we can carry ii
again this year.
II is said that the three great States
of New York, Pennsylvania and
Ohio will unite upon these ideas and
that Tildcn, Randall and Payne will
work together, backed by the l7i
votes of their States.

Hopkinsville.

A little run down ito IIopkinsville
the other day, afforded us another
(our second) opportunity to see that
beautiful and progressive little city.
The splendid blocks of buildings
that have risen up, as if by magic,
from the ashes of its disastrous fires,
suggest an involuntary doubt whcth-
er fires are not sometimes blessings in |
disguise, for certainly grandcr i'm
provements have not been made any !
where, in so brief a space of time,
than have been made in Hopkins
vile where the flames played such |
havoc a year or two ago. And even
the sites of buildings more recently
destroyed, will soon be occupied by
noblcr structures than those that
were destroyed. On walking up the
street towards the depot, we were
more forcibly struck with the beau
ty of the site of the late South Ken
lucky College, than we were before
the building was destroyed. 1t is on
a grand cmincnce overlooking the
whole city, and the entire country
for miles and miles around on every
side. We were graliiicd to learn
that the College will soon be rebuilt,
and will be ready for the Fall term
Such site is worthy of a magniti-
cent building.
Meeting Mr.. Day-a son-in-law. Of
Henderson, duly decorated with fra
grant hyacinths-hc introduced us
TO Mr.. lIendlcy, the stage manager of
the Opera House, and that gentleman
very courteously showed us through
the building. Ii is very handsome
one, broader than ours, but lacks Il
Dress Circle and Boxes, and the bal
cony does not extend around the
sides. The stage lighting is all done
by electricity and the Scenery and
dressings rooms are very superior.
Mr.. IIendley informed us that he
wonld have new scenery painted
during the summer, and it would all
be ready by the opening of the next
season. Our contemporaries of the
NeW Era and South Kentuchian
were very busy eating dinner when
we called, but we caught the latter
in, as we were on our way out to the
depot, and can truthfully say that he
already shows unmistakable evidence
| OF the improvement that is wrought
| by matrimony. 1t always has that

The Lower House of the Legisla-
turc has voted to adjourn April 20,
and meet again in adjourned session
Dec. 81. 1t is said that the Senate
will concur in the resolution and
that an extra session win be held at
ALI expense of 100000 to the State.
This in the face of the fact that the
body has already been i'll session
nearly twice as long as the time
fixed by law. So far as the passage
of measures of general importance is
concerned, the present Legislature
has proven itself a signal and gigan'
tic failure. Aside from the consider
alton Of local matters and declaring
small creeks navigablo streams, it
has done literally nothing. 1t is true
that much of the time during the
early part of the session was taken
up in the election of a United States
Senator and choosing a Librarian
and Public Printer. These matters
! have been disposed Of for weeks and
still the people have looked in vain
for the Legislature to get down to
some work OF Importance to the state.
Just such business rs this is running
the State in debt and we are sur
prised to see the CourierJournal adj
vocating an adjourned session. The
Frankfort Woman is right in oppos-
ing such a step. The proper course
for the members of the General AS
,cmbly to pursue is to go to work in
earnest, hold two sessions day until
the work now on hand is disposed OF
and then 90 home to stay. This
could be done in thirty days, if The
members would quit calling each
other ''liarS and scoundrcls" and get
down to work.
