Something That Will Interest the Read
ers Of the Great GAINESVILLE To-
bacco District.

The Democrats over in Christian
county are congralulating them
selves upon the passage of bill by
the present Legislature, whereby the
Third Judicial district IS formed.
The bill has received the Governors
signature and is therefore a law.
This district is composed of the
counties of Galloway. Trigg, Lyon
and Christian and is safely Demo
cratic. The New Era says that the
Republican majority OF Christian
county made it matter OF great
importance that it be connected with
other counties that gave Democratic
majorities sufficient to more than
counter-balance it. To do this it be-
came absolutely necessary to go
across the Tennessee river and take
in the rock ribbed and impregnable
Gibraltar of Democracy, Galloway
county. 1t is reported that down in
Galloway Republicans are SO scarce
that they are looked on as curiosities,
so scarce in fact that the present adj
ministration is forced to give all the
offices to Democrats, because there
are no Republicans there to fill them.
Lyon and Trigg counties are also
Democratic, aud will make the Third
judicial district Democratic by about
1900 majority.
The Democrats have organized
strong clubs all over Davies county,
(Ky.) and are organizing for strong
fight. The nomination OF Steven
son on the National Democratic
tick ct seems to have put new energy
into the Democrats of Western Ken
lucky and they are in the fight to
stay.
The body of white man was
found in the river at Warsaw, Ky,
Saturday. All that was found on
his person was a bottle of whisky, a
deck passage ticket and 50 10 in silver
coinl. He was inferred at Warsaw.
Chief Engineer McPugh has com
pleted the survey of the Kentucky
Midland from North Middleton tC
Mt. Sterling and has made his official
report to the company. Il is thought
that the line will soon be located and
that work will begin al once.
The property Of the Stewart Coun'
| ~ Fair Association has been sold by
the sheriff. A new company has
heen organized, however, that pro
poses to pay all debts of the old ass0'
citation, and which will hold a fail
next fall. The members of the new
organization met at Dover to-day fol
the purpose of perfecting al arrange
ments for the fall fair. There are
many good men connected with tni'
venture and the LEAF CHRONICLE
wishes them success.
The people who are of the opinion
that the Third party will not taxi
sides with the Republicans in th'
coming campaign should read an(
ponder over the following from tn
Milan Exchange:
81. Hugh, during one of his con
versations here, said that the Repub
lican and Peoples party understood
each other. That if Rice Pearce ruI
the Republicans would have out n
candidate for congress, and vic
versa. He admitted that the Pee
ples' party We're in the minority il
this state, hut had good fightin
chance, and with the help of Reput
licaus would accomplish wonders
That he would rather e Republ
can governor of Tennessee than
Democrat. He thinks the Thir
party will safely carry at least lively
states. Mac has way Of talkin
