The Breckenridge news. (Cloverport, Ky.) 1876-1955, 1893-11-08

The News owes much to its corps of
faithful correspondents. They are the
life of the paper. They speak from the
valleys, the hill tops and keep us posted
on the movements of our friends, our
neighbors, our kinsmen. They are as a
mirror, rejecting the little things, the
mishaps, the deaths, the births, the mar
riages all of which we are all more or
less interested in. All honor to them
and their noble work.

come from such able authorities that he de-
termlned to request q brief on the subject
from Mr.. Olney. The Attorney general has
favored the President with an exhaustive
statement. in which he clearly sets forth
his opinion that che President has full
