The Monarch Milling Company's
mill is new through aud through IN
Machinery and their productions have
no superiors. In fact our people who
have made comparisons give their
makes the preference over all others.
The Crown is their leader and is the
highest and best grade of flour made.
Their next grade the is Monarch an |
Blue Ribbon and these brands, in the
estimation of not few, are superior
to the makes of some of the highest
grades of many other mills, and their
lowest grade, the Anchor, is a good
one. The capacity of this mill is 40
barrels per day and the buciness is
enormous. The trade every where is
demanding the production of the
Monarch Mills. The present man
agement of the Monarch Milling Com
pany with Mr.. G. III. Petry at the
head, has reduced the expenses so
that. considering the honest quality of
the grades, no other mill anywhere
can produce at a less cost, or can put
flour on the market cheaper. Our
people have an opportunity of patron
izing home exclusively, will they do
it? In addition to the production
of flour. the mills are grinding 1900
bushels of corn per day and making
the highest grade of meal. These
mills, Montgomery county has reason
10 he proud of, and il is right that
hey should give it their patronage

Brown and Norman.

Elk Gov. John Young Brown
and ex-Auditor l.. G.. Norman are
engaged in another newspaper con-
troversy. Brown has been trying
to rake up suit against the ex-
Auditor for paying certain sums to
the Auditors agent of Jefferson
county, The Auditor in making
these payments followed the prece-
dent of his predecessor, and further
took the precaution to secure the
opinion of the Attorney General.
Now, after Brown is out of office,
he is charged with trying to make
business for himself by raking up
these suits against man with
whom he is VIGOROUSLY unfriendly.
Major Norman published salty
letter, in which he told the ex- Gov
ernor some pretty plain truths. In
yesterdays Courier-Journal Brown
had lengthy reply to Mr.. Nor
mans statement. He does not de-
ny, in fact he cannot, that the Aud
itor fortified himself with the At
torney Generals written opinion as
to the law in the case, but would
leave the impression, if possible, on
the public that he BROWN was the
only honest man in Office while he
was Governor of Kentucky. There
are some better men, in some parti
culars, than ex-Gev. John Young
Brown.

DIR. W. Godfrey Hunter allowed
himself to be interviewed again and
in his own quiet way said some "nice"
things about Governor Bradley, which
will no doubt be purused by the latter
with pleasure. He thinks the Cover
nor is compromising his dignity a
trifle in making dark-lantern speeches
TO oath-bound organizations, and init
mates that the Governor has been
guilty of dupicity.

Rev. l. S. McElroy, of Lexington
Ky, held a short meeting at the
Southern Presbyterian church last
week. He preached ON Monday and
Tuesday and received thirty-two per-
sons in the church The membership
was greatly revived and edited by
the preaching of DR.. McElroy. On
Wednesday morning there was con-
gregdtional meeting and The church
gave UNANIMOUS call to Rev. @. w.
Maxwell of Davidson. N. c., TO become
their pastor. Mr.. Maxwell is very
highly spoken of not only as a fine
preacher but good pastor. We hope
the church may be successful in Sc
cureing Mr.. Maxwell as their pastor.

ARRESTED.
John Cole Caught and Brought
Back To Answer for His Crime.

JOHN Cole, fugitive from justice,
was arrested in Bloomington, Ills, and
returned here on Sunday night. 1t
will be remembered that about the
middle Of December last two young
men, said to have been John Cole and
Charles Glenn, went to the home OF Fee
Cundif, poor man living south of
Jacksonville, and while Cundiff and
his wife were at church and only their
little children were at home, forced
open the door, terrorized the little
ones and attempted to outrage the per-,
son of the Oldest child, girl of eight
years. Failing in their purpose, the
infamous villains then made the child
submit to an absolutely unnamabe
and almost unthiukable outrage.
Warrants were Issued for Cole and
Glen. The latter was arrested very
soon, but, Cole, warned by friends, es-
capped to another state. He was later
on located in Ohio, but before requisi-
ton papers could be secured, got wind
of the fact that his whereabouts were
known and again he fled. The officers
were determined to catch him and see
that he stood trial for the crime with
which he is charged. and were soon
upon his track again. When he was
located at Bloomington care was ia
ken that the bird be secured before too |
much noise was made. Both men
were indicted by the grand jury at the
last term of the Circuit court, and will
be given the opportunity to prove
their innocence of the terrible charge
brought against them. If these two
men are guilty they deserve the sever
est penalty the law can inflict on them.

MIR. Carlisle For President

The first authorized statement from
Secretary Carlisle indicating that he
will be a candidate for the Demo-
cratic Presidential Nomination will be
found in letter published in another
column and written by Mr.. Carlisle
to Hon. Charles r. Long Chairman of
the State Democratic Executive Com
mittee. The Courier Journal aptly
remarks:
The position which Mr.. Carlisle
takes is one entirely in accord with
the dignity of the Office of President
and with the duties of the office of
Secretary of the Treasury. He de-
clines to participate in a contest for
a nomination, holding that the matter
of first moment is the declaration of
the party's principles. He desires the
Endorsement of his services by his
State, and, though he does not say it
in so many words, if his State shall
present his name to the national con-
vention, and if that convention, after
a satisfactory platform,
shall call upon him to take command
as its choice for the presidency, he
will undoubtedly accept that RESPONSE
Dility.
