nothing OF personal spite goes in this
column. No innuendoes, no insinua-

know exactly whom to joke, without
malice or unkindness in the admixture.
Mrs. J. w. Richardson spent several
days last week with me. Nellie b. Lewis
no doubt, thinks it strange she was not
present at the Napoleon lunch and real
ly her name was on the list, but the
menu counted chiefly OF "favors" and
ran ore short, hence the omission which
dear nellie will pardon.
l have commenced reading Chicka-
manga aloud to the children and they
are already wishing for the next chap

Either Clay or Hardin suits me for
Governor. In the days OF Henry Clay g
pristine glory" he and my grand father
Beall were colleagues and its almost
treason to not support the name. But
again we are warmly attached to the
Hardin's who never daily, doubt or hest
tate in the performance OF duty. The
struggle between them is fierce. They
are both good fighters and IL they don't
wear out before the Convention, nc
doubt, their names will be first present.

Mr.. Jordan Owen, of Hart county
private Secretary OF ex-Gov. Simon b
Buckner, was here last Friday in the in
terest of General Buckner's Senatorial
race. had not given the campaign OF -;
much thought, but have been noticing
how the gubernatorial contest was warm
ing up and must agree with auditor, L. @
Norman that 1.-THE organization and mo-
the man will win IN the race" and NJ
one is better posted on Kentucky Attain
than Major Norman, for he has made
general politics life study with particu
lar application to home affairs. Blu
when it comes to the race for United
States Senator it seems to me we should
draw the line at the man, especial,
when he is qualified and in every way
capacitated to do full duty as patriot
statesman and Democrat in defense o
Democratic principles Of honest, FREE
government and constitutional liberty
The ex- Gov the General OF Fort Don
aldson renown, the champion Of Demo
c,acy in sections OF the State and il
country districts in the late campaign
raised his clarion voice from every avail
able stump to arouse a true Democrat,
spirit. Shall we not be true to our ira
ditional history and honor Gen. Simon
Boliver Buckner's 'silver crowned head
by sending him to the Senate =? In hi
election he will honor one who in hi
service will honor the Democratic party
and the state OF Kentucky. Most Of III
here know the old General personally
came up from New Orleans in the
spring OF n with him, his first wife anC
his daughter the late Mrs. Belknap, O
Louisville, and l can fully understand
why the boys in the trenches" were 81
faithful and loyal to him for he was one
OF them and has a heart as well as brains
The General is far the preference here
over soy. Brown I'm told. l hold tina
the questions OF good government, coun
ty, state and national justify and demand
interest and consideration just as mat
tiers OF private interests. Carefully ex
anime the facts, reason accurately, ge
the benefit of your own and others views
come TO the safe and conservative con
clusion TO be for the "old hero" in the
Senatorial fight.
