George Gordon, of this place, is an
Englishman by birth and weaver 10y
trade, having been for several years
superintendent of the large wo lien
mills at Cannellton, Indiana. He keeps
a confectionery at present and is doing
well. When boy he was preparing to
run away from home and become a
sailor. That was in the days when Jen.

wonderful gift of SOM. About the
time young G'r,lon vas ready to skip,

and that of home took its place, and he
stayed at home and remained 'land

The County Press.

ltioHlt bnu FNH,l
II, in the discussion of public ones
tions, Home and Farm has had any in
fuence on the farming community, it
must be evident to our readers that the
political reforms required to preserve to
the farmers themselves their share Of
the products, will come, not 30 much
from the success of one party or the
other, rs from a more intelligent con-
ception of the difficulties with which in
this life we have TO deal, and a belief
that these difficulties can only be
met by spread Of intelligence and
general morality. Most of MS, in fact,
are in the dark in regard to many ques-
tons, and only observation and exper-
fence will enlighten us.
One of the helps to such enlighten-
ment is found in the county press. The
county newspaper should be the chief
ally of the agriculturist. II it is not so,
it is because neither the press nor the
farmer really understand their relations
to each other. We do not pretend that
the county newspaper is all that il
should be, but we believe that it is all il
can well be when we consider the sup
port which it receives. The reply is
that if it were better il would receive
more material support from the farmers
But suppose the farmers themselves try
the effect of furnishing the support in
advance and see what the result will be
upon the newspaper. In many counties
throughout the South and West the
most effective exponent of right ideas,
of proper living, of justice and morality
is the county paper, credit TO the man
who makes it and to the men who sup
port it. These newspapers can he null
tiplied many times, and their influence
upon public affairs will increase Just in
proportion as their support increases
and their condition improves.
We trust, therefore, that our readers
will see to it that the county press has
better support in the future than it has
had in the past. We are glad always TO
receive subscriptions made in combined
offers of Home and Farm with the conn
ty papers.

The candidates should go into the
primary to win if they can, and if
defeated, to support the nominee.
Every candidate has a right to and
should do all in his power to advance
his own interests, but this should be
done with due respect for the other
candidates. Every man should
work for himself, but not against
anybody else. Perfect fairness
should be shown to each other. The
successful candidate must have the
united support of the defeated candi,
dates if he is elected in August. With
out the support of the defeated can
didates, the nomination would be an
empty honor. So far as we are ad-
vised, everything is moving along
smoothly with the ofiice-seekers, but
a word in season does no harm. Let
every candidate keep cool, calm and
considerate. work hard and honestly
for himself, say nothing to the dis
arrangement of anybody; then let the
people have a harmonious primary
and vote for the nominee in August.
Should this be done, and it is moth
ing but fairness and right, a solid
Democratic ticket will be elected in
August.

Falliny Rock School.

Our school has recently closed, to the
sorrow of all. During the term that has
just expired we can all say that We have
had very interesting school, however,
we think it could not have been other
wise, since we have had such an en-.
couraging teacher. She took great in
terest in the advancement of her pu-
pills, and great pains in explaining and
making clear everything that pertained
to their course of study. She never
tired with advising and explaining, but
to assist her pupils always seemed to be
an enjoyment to her. She taught her
pupils t. be always truthful and pure,
as happiness and pleasure exist not else
where. Not only did she advise MS for
the best, but always set good example
herself In the school room she was
gentle, kind and affectionate, always
treating every one with due courtesy.
We, her pupils, almost worship her,
therefore the parting of last Saturday
was very sad. Our beloved teacher is
Miss Lulie Walker, who resides near
Hartford, Ky. Miss Lulie not only
gained the love of her pupils and pa
irons while she was with us, but that
of everyone who had the honor OF meet
Ing her. Miss Lulie, don't forget that
yonr Grayson county pupils and patrons
expect you to teach for them again next
fall. aud a great many shall be very
inpatient for the time TO como when
You may be with US again.

DESERTED HIS WIFE.
A Hsartless Husband and Father Plays
The Truant in DisgracefuT
Manner

IOWenSnOIo MtNSeGktTI
During the holidays man named
Littell, who lived about twelve miles
ont on the Fordsville railroad, came to
town with his family to visit relatives.
They remained day or two. and when
they were ready to return Littell sent
his wife and children to the depot in a
carriage, telling them that he would
meet them there before train time.
They went to the depot and waited
until the time arrived, aud he did not
appear. They boarded the train and
went home, expecting him ON the 10
o'clock train the next day. He did not
come and inquiry was at once made for
him. IL was learned that after he put
his wife and children in the hack on
East Third street he went down town,
and there all trace of him was lost, and
nothing has since been heard of him.
Were it not for the mans previous
history, foul play or fatal accident of
some sort would be feared by his friends
but they are confident he has deserted
his family. He did the desertion act
once before and was gone a considera-
BILE time. ..
From the appearance ofthe surround
ings his absence would not seem to be a
great hardship on his family. Those
who know him do not speak of him in
terms at all bordering on flattery and
are free to say that his family and the
community will be as well off without
him.

THE County Superintendent says
that the public schools in Ohio coun.
ty were never in better working con.
dition than they are at present. He
has visited every school in the coun-
ty, and speaks knowingly of the con.
dition of the schools. Teachers are
preparing themselves better for their
work. For several years it has been
noticeable that a greater interest was
being developed in Ohio county in
educational work. With the i'm
provement of the schools the people
take greater interests. One power.

The mountain Judge to whom
Governor Buckner paid his respects
in his message, wrote defense Of his
judicial career and sent it to the
General Assembly. He followed the
style of Judge jackson, using the
language of the braggadocio rather
than that of the jurist. The more
we see of these judges, the more we
agree with the Governor. Ken
lucky has a splendid Governor, and
every move he makes appears to be
for the interests of the people.
Judge jackson and Judge Lilly will
get little sympathy from the people
for their vindictive and dictatorial
replies.

The fact that Governor Bucknei
appointed Col. Ed. Porter Thomp
son to fill out the unexpired term Of
the State Librarian, had seemingly
but little influence with the Genera
Assembly. The Democratic caucus,

Mrs. Mary Russell Day, of Frank
fort, to be State Librarian. There
were several contestants, but The
contest finally narrowed down be
tween Col. Thompson and Mrs. Day,
with the lady far in the lead.

THERE are not enough offices in
these United States to satisfy one
tenth of the Republicans who want
office. President Harrison, it is
claimed by his party, has had no
time for craftsmanship, because his
time was continuously occupied in
dishing out pie. Some excuse is
necessary for the President, as he
has certainly not been engaged in
any great things as anybody has ever
heard of. His first term will be gone
before he gets the Offices distributed,
and unless he gets another term,
which Is decidedly improbable. he
will have nothing to remind his
friends he was ever President, ex-
cept his division of official pie.

The fact that Gen. Sam Hill is

ant TO place his name before the people
as a candidate for Congress in the cleo

his fitness discussed at length and en-

some bitter fights in the Fourth Dis

SENATOR WORKMAN introduced a
bill in the Senate prohibiting the
sale of cigarettes to boys under
eighteen years of age. The bill
passed both Houses, and will
likely become a law. The Gig
arctic is destroying the vitality of
many boys, and if the Legislature
can hit on some plan by which il can
stop the boy from smoking these
deadly things, it will work a great
reform. The average small boy will
fall upon some other plan to get his
cigarette, for he thinks it essential to
his manly bearing to blow cigarette
smoke through his nose. The Legis.
lature may make it penalty to sell
him the cigarette, but it will hardly
keep him from smoking them.
