TANNER TANNED.
DR.. cLAROY WINS HANDS DOWN IN
THE DISTRICT.
In Spite of Still Hunts and Secret Move.
meDts the People Stand by Him
Loses Henderson County on
Account of the Fight
on Yeaman in
This County.

TIE congressional primaries in the
Second district Saturday resulted in a
victory for Dr. Carday, by vote Of
nearly three + 0 one o-er his opponent,
Mr.. l.. P. Tanner. The last week OF
the campaign was characterized by
some lively canvassing, as DR.. Clardy
discovered secret organized move
ment to still hunt the district in Tan
ner's interest. He promptly organic
ed the district as rapidly as possible
and succeeded in getting his friends
aroused. He carried six out OF the
eight counties, getting some strength
in every county, including Tanners
own county.
The following is a careful estimate
of the result in all the counties, the
call requiring that pro rata division
be made of each county's vote:
Hopkinsville Kentuckian. [volume] (Hopkinsville, Ky.) 1889-1918, 1896-08-04

Henderson county went Tor Ian
ner He carried out of six precincts
in the city, all but East Henderson.
He also carried Cogydon, Zion, Cairo,
Dixie, Smith Mills, Geneva. Clardy
got Adhesion, Audubon, Hebbards-
vile
Few precincts i'm Webster county
have reported. In NORTH Sebree the
vote was a tie. Ciardy carried South
Sebree by two votes. Slaughtersville
went for Clardy.
Clardy carried Daviess, getting five
out of eight precincts in Greensboro,
Yelvington, Ensor, Whitesville, Phil
pot, West Louisville, Rome, Toll
Gate, Rochester and Sales. Tanner
carried three Owensboro precincts,
Fields and Murray No2.
In Hancock county Clardy carried
Hawesville 2 precincts; Tanner car
ried Lewisport.
Tanner got everything heard from
in Mclean excepting Sacramento,
which went for Clardy.
Union county-Three out of four
precincts in Uniontown endorsed the
Mclean candidate. Morganfeld,
Sturgis and Waverly GO for Clardy
and it is likely that most of the coun-
ty went Clardyward.
In Hopkins, Clardy carried Madi-
sonville, Darlington, Hanson and
Morton's Gap, II precincts in all, so
far as reported. Dawson sent Clardy
delegates uninstructed. 1t is not
likely that Clardy lost a single pre-
cinct in the county, though full re-
turns are not in yet.
The county conventions will
meet at o'clock tomorrow and the
district convention at jacksonville
next Monday afternoon.

unaffected that the man was discon-
certed. and at last joined i'm il. little
shamefacedly. The grotesquc blunder
OF being taken as "A fugitive from JUS

acute tension. he was momentarily di-
verted, and il was not until the boat
man had departed and he was again
alone that il seemed TO have any col

Then an uneasy recollection OF Susy's
threat that she had the power TO put

him.

dismissed the idea.
Nevertheless. when the stage with IFS
half-spent lamps still burning dimly
against the morning light swept round
the curve and rolled heavily up to the
fee, he became wntchful.
A single yawning individual in its
doorway received few letters and par
cells. but Clarence was evidently the
only waiting passenger. Any hope that
he might have entertained that his mys-
terious predecessor would emerge from
some seclusion at that moment, was
disappointed.
AS he entered the coach he made n
rapid survey OF his fcllow-travelcrs. but
satisfied himself that the stranger was
not among them. They were mainly
small traders or farmers. n miner or
two. and apparently n Spanish-Amcr-
Jean OF better degree and personality.
Possibly the circumstance that men
Of this class usually preferred 10 travel
on horseback and were rarely seen in

In mutual curiosity.

Love Is like freely with it's living spark
Shining ever brighter when the way is

Love is like a rosebud. full OF hidden

Love is like a river ceaslng not 10 run.

Love is like the radiance of distant star.

Still we see It cleaning. knowing not

Though the bloom is paiing on the nee

Love Is like sunbeam, lighting with IT'S

Faces fair or faded. tresses young or old.
When the youthful roses wither from the

Only death can tell thee. but this heart OF
