JUsT what good can come out of
DR.. Clardy's much boosted resolu-
ton in reference to the sale OF
American tobacco on 'regie" con-
tracts, does not appear. The
Democratic papers in the Second
Congressional district have done a
great deal OF talking as to the great
service the Doctor 10 rendering
tobacco growers but they fail to
explain where the benefit comes in,
1t is not at all likely. that a resolu-
ton Of Congress will have much
weight with the foreign govern
ments that now have the monoplies
on the tobacco trade, against which
monoplIes the resolution is directed
But there must be something out
OF which to make political capital,
and in the Doctors case the
"regie" contract is the thing, be-
cause that is all the Doctor has to
boast of.

Darlington is the coal mining
metropolis of the Western Ken
lucky coal fields. More miners
are employed in Hopkins county
than IN any other county in the
State. The miners of Darlington
and the majority of the miners in
Hopkins county make better wages
than any others in the Western
kentucky District. These see no
reason for any great complaint,
and Notwithstanding the mild win
ter just past, they are comparatively
prosperous and happy.
The product of the commercial
coal mines OF Hopkins county,
shipped during 1896, was about
one-fourth OF the total output OF
the State, and the sale of this pre-
duct brought into the county more
than $500, 600 IN cash, the bulk OF
which was paid TO the miners.
AS one evidence OF the favorable
conditions of the majority OF coal
miners in Hopkins County we de-
sire to state that one company,
operating here and elsewhere in
this county, which employs from
500 to 1000 men has had no
sirike in III years.
Darlington, the coal mining
metropolis of the western field IS a
peaceablc, sober, law-abiding town
of over $500 inhabitants. 1t has
free public schools for nine months
in the year, both white and colored,
a Catholic parochial school, num-
erous churches, two public Ii
braries and reading rooms-one
for the white and one for the col
ored people, beautiful park on
the banks OF a splendid artificial
lake of 100 acres, well stocked
with fish and supplied with pleas
ure boats. The Hopkins County
miner is generally prosperous and
happy.
