MEADE'S FAVORITE SON.
The Primary Waxeth Warm In Dem
ocratic Meade, and Dick hewitt
Seems to Lead.

From all appearances the Democratic
primary in Meade county is up to the
old.time fever heat, and as usual the
fight seems to be centered on the race
for County Court Clerk. X. II. hewitt,
W. b. Mattingly and j. Il. Willett are
the candidates.
While each aspirant claims the vic
tory and seems confident Of winning, it
is evident to by-stander that the race
is between hewitt and Willett, with
hewitt in the lead.
Dick hewitt is a great favorite in
Meade, and while his opponents are
both worthy gentlemen, they find it
hard to shake the confidence that the
Democracy and the people at large re-
pose in genial, clever, big-hearted Dick
Mr.. hewitt is the present incumbent Of
the office and his record as an efficient
officer is so clean that the general i'm
preston seems to be that he deserves an
Endorsement. The people recognize the
fact that it takes one so long to become
familiar with the duties of the Office
that, when there are no other objections
it is to their interest, as well as measure
of justice to the efficient officer, to give
him at least one Endorsement.
Other things are to Nevitt's advantage.
The people say that he has favored them
in more ways than making good clerk
In 1892, and again in 1898, when the
State Board Of Equalization had raised
the assessment OF property in Meade
county Dick hewitt was appointed on
the Committee, by the County Judge,
to go to Frankfort and make an argument
before the Board against the raise. In
each instance his familiarity with the
revenue laws, his convincing argument,
his earnest, open and honest barring
carried conviction to the hearts Of the
Board, and Meade county was saved
several thousand dollars. The people
know this, and they feel that they can
not afford to look with Indifference upon
his request 10 be retained as a public
servant.
Neyitt's popularity is not confined to
Meade county. As a clerk he is recog-
nized everywhere as one Of the finest in
the State, and as a sociable gentleman,
he is loved wherever he is known. He
is always the same pleasant fellow when
ever or wherever met One day with
another the beams of his honest face
shine with pleasure upon his friends,
and he has no enemies.
This is the way that Meade county
people talk, and Nevitt's return to the
Clerks office is almost assured.

TIE democrats have not done all they
should in the year they have been in
power, but still the record is one to be
proud of. They have repealed the silver
purchase law, wiped that menace Of lib
erty, the election laws, from the statute
books, the pension appropriation has
been reduced sl5,OOO,OOO a year and the
House has passed tariff reform bill, if
not as good as it should be, still long
step in the right direction. There have
been blunders and deliquencies, but the
record is a pretty fair one. The repeal
of the election laws and the other things
to their credit cover a multitude of faults
and make the year a notable one.-lnter-

FATALLY SHOT.
Henry c. Vargason, Formerly Of
Stephensport, Receives a Death
Wound at Uniontown.

The Greensboro Messenger, yesterday,
gave the following account OF the shoot
ing of former Breckenridge county
boy;-"Iienry G. Vargason, a cooper,
who formerly lived here, was shot and
probably fatally wounded at Uniontown
Saturday night by Snowman named
Cook.
Cook had a showboat which was
moored at the landing in front OF Union
town. Vargason, in company with a
man named Lindsey, went to the boat
Saturday night after the show was over
and were refused admittance. The
Snowman is said to have used extremely
vile language towards them. This an
gered Vargason AMI. Lindsey, who
stepped ashore and cut the rope which
held the boat to her moorings. One OF
them fired pistol at the boat as it began
to move down the river.
Cook then came to the door armed
with double barrel shotgun and fired at
the men, who were not more than thirty
feet away. A full charge OF No. shot
struck VaIgason in the breast. A buck
shot which was in the charge went clear
through his body. Though MORALLY
wounded, Vargason was still alive when
last heard from. Cook and Lindsey
were both arrested and are held await
ing the result ofvargason's injuries.
It is said that the difficulty came up
over a woman connected with the show.
Vargason was raised in Breckenridge
county, but resided in 0wensboro for a
number OF years. He is a hali-brother
OF Messrs. George and Charles yargason
and Mrs Henry Taylor,oi this city. The

was burned on the 10Th OF this month.
The fire was caused by defective fue.
The fire spread so rapidly that it was i'm
possible TO save the house, though about
all the contents were gotten out without
being damaged great deal. Col. L
Green, owner OF said house, has $400 in
surance, which will about cover the loss.
They had hard work to keep other valua-
BILE buildings from burning. 1t was very
fortunate for Mr.. Green that the fire
stopped where it did, for great would
have been the loss If his graineries and
stables had burned. -"'
