We call especial attention this week
to the advertisement of 10 M. Conroy.
manufacturer and dealer in harness,
saddles. plow gear, etc. OF course
every article handled is not mentioned
by name in the advertisement and the
only way the customers can know of
the many attractions he Mas is to go
and see them. In an advertisement
he can not give the different styles and
grades of buggy harness, and in this
line he has many kinds-some light,
some heavy, some with one kind of a
saddle and some with another kind,
and they also differ in finish and of
necessity the price is governed by the
cost of material and workmanship,
One thing is certain, he has a large
stock and can furnish the trade Just
what they want, and at close prices.
His makes please the trade because
ever article used is of the best ma.
terial and the workmen are men of
experience.

For Delegate to Chicago.

The time draws near when we must
select delegates to attend the National
. Convention at Chicago. Kentucky
needs to send her very best men To
represent her in the councils of the
party. The Tenth District can find no
better men-we say it advisedly-than
Judge Ii. II. French, of this city. He
is a leyel-hesded, conservative man
an honest, earnest Democrat, who en-
joys the respect and full confidence OF
all, and one who will subordinate all
private wishes and ordinations to the
good of the party as a whole. The
District cannot do better than to name
him as one of its delegates, for Their
never was time In the history of ia
party when just such men as Howsr'
AZ. French were more needed az thu
helm. He will, of course, get the
hearty endorsement of his own coun v
and we hope there will not be a vote
in the district against him.

The Mt. Sterling Gazette gets on
its ear because Senator John p
.'Salyer voted to sxpel James and
Walton from the Senate. 1t says
he coined with the revolutionists
and anarchists in the Kentucky
Senate last Wednesday and assist
ed in expelling two Republicans in
violation of all law and decency."
Therefore it thinks he SHOULD be
politically damned forever We
take it the Gazette's denunciation
of Dir. Salyer will not cause him to
lose much sleep. He knows the
Gazette would not fail to do its ut
most to find cause to abuse him or
any other Democrat who should
happen to offer as candidate for
office,

The editor of the Mt. Sterling Ga
zette, of course, upholds Gov. Bradley
ia his attempt to play the satrap. We
all remember how he thought the
Force Bill ga wise and patriotic meas

Gov. Bradley's to trample under foot
the rights OF free people could mot
but meet with the Gazette's hearty APP
.s1rOyal.

We regret that Judge Hazelrigg

ed an opinion upon case that will

1t is a little amusing to those TO
MS who know the Gazette's strenu-
GUS } efforts to help elect Jugde
Ha2elrigg, to read its expression of
regret" that the Judge should
have exercised his right as a pri-
vate citizen, and even as an officer
of the Commonwealth, to give voice
to his indignation. that the Cover
nor Of Kentucky had tried to play
the tyrant by calling out the State
troops 10 ovorawe the Legislative
and judicial branches Of the gov
eminent. Judge Hazelrigg did not
express in any way, any opinion as
to the business or unjustness of the
action of the Senate in expelling
James and Walton. What he did
do was to express his Indignation
that little cigarette-smoking dude,
playing soldier ands who was yet
unborn, while the Judge was fac
ing the serried ranks Of a brave
enemy, should thrust bayonet at
his breast as he attempted to go
into his court room to discharge
his sworn duty. The editor of the
Gazette either misunderstood or
purposely misrepresented Judge
Hazelrigg.

To the Memory of ollie 0ma
YOCum.

On Sunday morning, February
16, at l o'clock a. M, as the watch
ers sat anxiously by the bedside OF
little Ollie, the sweet, bright little
daughter of /. d. and Laura Yo-
cum, the death angel entered and
carried her spirit to the home be-
yond the skies. Peacefully her
life went out as one who had fallen
asleep. For only five short years
had this little one gladdened the
hearts of family and friends. Her
brief life was one of much suffer
ing. Spinal trouble from infancy
caused her almost incessant pain,
and at last broke the thread of life.
Many, many times she has said,
"Oh, mamma, yoa don't know how
/ do suffer in this world" In
spite of bodily weakness, her mind
was unusually bright and active.
She had seemingly insatiate de
sire to learn. Her book was her
constant companion, and she could
read, write, spell and count remark
ably well for her years. But God
in his infinite love and mercy, end
ed her life of suffering here and
took her to dwell forevermore in
the sunshine of His love.
Oh! we would not have her here again,
But we would strive to meet hpt there,
We could not wish her this earth's pain
She's singing now with angels fair.
We miss thee from onr home, Ollie,
We miss thee from thy place;
A shadow DER our life is cast,
We miss the sunshine of thy face
We'd not call back the little angel,
Anchored safe where storms are DER;
On the border land we left her,
Soon to meet and part no L ore.
Far beyond this world of suffering,
Far beyond this world of care,
We shall find our little darling
In our Fathers mansion fair.
In silence she suffered in patience she bore
Until God called her to suffer no more.
We miss her little footsteps,
We miss her everywhere;
Home is not what it used to be
Since Ollie is not there.
Tho cast down we are not forsaken.
Tho afflicted not aone
Thou hast given and Thou hast taken,
Blessed Lord thy will be done.
FAREWELL Ollie, but not forever,
There will be a glorious dawn;
We shall meet to part no never,
On the Resurrection morn,
MOTHER.

charged that he prejudged "th'
question of the legality of the ex
pulslon Of Senators Jones and Wal
ton" The Judge did.not refer to thu
Senate's action either directly OF
indirectly. His speech before th'
people of Frankfort was but recita
of the outrage that had been put
upon a member Of the Court of last
resort in the State, by Governor
who was making a grandstano
play for the benefit of his supposed
candidacy for President. No self
respecting citizen would have done
less than he did when an armed
soldier stopped him; and it is to
be regretted that the lawyers who
accompanied Judge Hazelrigg were
not Republicans rather than Demo.
Gratis. In his course at the dooor OF
the consultation room Judge Hazel
rigg acted not only for himself but
those attorneys as well who accom-
panied him to his Court to argue
their cases, and who, like him, were
attempted to be turned back by one
of Bradley's minions. Neither the
Judge nor these attorneys repre-
scented themselves alone; they re-
presented the people who had the
question of life and liberty at
Court, and were denied the right to
have their business attended to.
Nor was it wrong to let the people
of the State know of the indignity
put upon high judicial officer by
the order of the Chief Executive of
the State. For this reason, not to
sit in judgement on the action of
the Senate, Judge Hazelrigg spoke
out in meetin'.
1t was of comparatively small
moment that James H Hazelrigg,
the man, was stopped by the sol
dier, which latter indeed was but
himself a mere cipher, but wrap
ped up in the person of the Judge
were the rights of the people, these
were involved, and in behalf of
these he acted both at the door of
his consultation room and later be-
fore the public assemblage.
The action Of Governor Bradley
was revolutionary and dangerously
menacing to the liberties of the
people. He exceeded his authority
and trod upon most dangerous
ground when he, for a partisan
purpose, placed soldiers in the
State House, where one branch of
the Government was making laws,
not only for him to execute, but as
well for him to obey, and another
branch of that Government was
sitting as a court to pass on the
constitutionality of the laws the
legislative branch of the Govern
ment was passing, and the correct
ness or faithfulness with which the
executive branch was executing
them. The Governor should be
held to a strict account for his ac-
ton in this matter, and we sincere
ly hope the next Legislature may
find a way to impeach him for the
disregard of the most
sacred rights of the people.

They say her smile was sweetest when she
In that enthralling power whose guise
Is sleep.
And remember now it was her way
To smile In slumber deep!
Yet when pressed the hand that lay SO
And called her name and smoothed her
pretty hair,
She answered not. nor soothed with her
My fond hearts crushing care.
How softly lay the laces on her breast
Methought she was SO lovely In repose
That surely paradise was still more
In claiming my sweet rose.
A rose that thrlved in sunshine or in shade
Until at length death touched the ten
der bloom
And withered it just when It would have
To brighten in the gloom.
And then ,;,t; At this my heart fell, crushed
was but conscious Of that vague un.
And ceaseless yearning that doth NIL the
When broodng death is guest.
Dear patient girl who was so loath to
hear
A single word against my ruthless
ways
And who will guide me now with gentle
fear
And who will speak my praise?
Oh, still she sleep. The Jasmine
blooms as then,
And nature bears its warm life from
the deeps,
And summer birds sing lightly once again,
But still, alas; she sleeps!

HIS WISHES NOT CONSIDERED
But the Rules Of the store Were Closely
Adhered To.

From the Chicago Daily Tribune.
A man with a bundle under his arm
made his way to the gas and oil stove
counterin one Of the big department
stores the other day and addressed the
young woman In charge: .,,I
Here Is a ten-f0ot piece Of flexible
gas pipe got from you last Thursday"
he said. II would like to exchange it
for longer one and pay the difference"
There's only one longer size In
stock" she replied. land It's only two
feet longer. What did you have to pay
for this?"
Seven cents foot"
We'll, it's two cents cheaper now.
We reduced the price this morning."
Then a twelve-foot piece would be
only sixty cents?" 4
"Yes, sir"
We'll, I ought to pay the ten cents
difference just the same. All want
is"
That's all right. Just take 1t to the
exchange department, on the next floor,
and they'll give you an exchange
check"
The customer followed directions.
II want to exchange this piece Of fiex.
ible gas pipe for a longer one" he said
to the young woman behind the coun-
ter, "and have been sent to YOU
What did you pay for 1t p she asked.
Seventy cents: but I bought 1t last
Thursday, and the price has been re.
duced since then. / only want" s..
That's all right. Name. please?"
He gave his name. u
Address, please?" !;
And he gave his address. ''rs
Here is your exchange check"
But this calls for seventy cents, ana
I'm only really entitled to-"
Take 1t back to the department
where you got 1t and the young lady
will make the exchange for you."
He took 1t back. r't'
The salesgirl at the gas pipe counter
wrapped up the twelve-foot piece, made
out regular sale check for sixty cents,
and sent the two slips Of paper to the
cashier
Ten cents came back.
Here is your gas pipe" she SAID
land here is the change"
But / don't"
Are you waited on. 1ady?"
He took the ten cents and made his
devious way out Of the building, more
deeply impressed with the inexplicable
mysteries of the department store ex-
change system than he had ever been
before.

Their Conditions Changed since Foster
Was Gorcrnor OF Ohio.
From the New York Trintine.
When Charles Foster was governor of
Ohio Brice owed him $4,000. Brice went
to the governor and asked him for q
place Foster said he could not ap-
point him because he was a Democrat.
Brice responded dryly that unless ne
got place he could never pay that
$1,000 Foster said that he would rath-
er lose the money than appoint him.
The result of the conference, however,
was .hat Foster gave Brice $500 and
told him to 70 into Wall street, and
gave him advice where to place the
money. Brice took the money disre-
garded all advice, and rounded up $40,-
900 in the street. Foster was so pleased
he rave Brice half the money. The
latter returned 20 the street, and by
~shrewd speculation built up an i'm
inense fortune. He has since that time
turned the market upside down sever
al times. Today Charles Foster Is prac-
tically q poor man. He met Brice In
the lobby of the Fifth Avenue hotel
within the last few days. and Brlce said
to him: "See here, you gave me q start.
let me help you now" Mr.. Foster felt
touched by the offer to repay, but he
declined. Mr.. Foster said: "Nobody
knows what Brlce Is doing. He may
be bankrupt today. but he will be q rich
man again tomorrow. He leads an odd
noo~"'e1 l,fe.''
