Church organizations are the safe
guards of society. 1t is creditable in
IA city to have its public improve

"a city without these is an inaminate
thing in a rut which narrows and
cramps up the best possibilities fol

No matter how superficial or really
careless man may be himself, he
wants his family to attend church; as

EDUCATIONAL
FACILITIES
UNSURPASSED

Public Schools are the civilizing
power Of the land-the hope of popu
lar government. The educational in.
terests of every city are of vital impor-
tance to its growth and prosperity,
Good schools are the pride of every
community, and often attract home
seekers when other advantages may
be wanting, and from the following
list, it will be readily seen that Hop
kihsvilie ranks among the first cities
of Kentucky in educational institu-
tions.

are the sentiments prevailing in
his heart and mind; and which
will guide his life-work, if he
succeeds to the Circuit bench of
his district.
From early youth, his life has
been characterized by honesty
of thought, word and action. A
child of the people, he has re-

A DISTINGUISHED EXPONENT
OF THE LEGAL PROFESSION.
Hon. ThOs Cook of Murray KY, Present Candidate for Circuit
Judge of the Third Judicial District.

On January /, 1897, he opened a
law Office at Murray, where he
has since resided and prac ticed.
Studious, painstaking, and ac-
commodating, his Capability did
not remain unobserved, and his
reward of clientage was commen-
surate with his close and faith
ful application to his legal duties.
He was elected by the people to
the position of County Attorney,
which he filled with credit to
himself, and satisfaction to the
county. His keen judgment, le-
gal mind, and careful operations,
were recognized by the bench, as
we'll as bar and litigants, and he
was, on various occasions, APP
pointed Special Judge in his dis
drict; and his wise rulings, and
general ability as jurist, at
such times, won for him the ad-
miration of all parties; and he
was selected and made the
nominee of the Democrats for
the office of Circuit Judge of
the 3rd Judicial district,
the election to occur this fall.
Over and above all other Of
fees, that of Circuit Judge
should remain pure and unfair
nished wholly "above suspi-
cion, and should be filled by a
man who is equally "above sus-
picion;" and Hon. Thos. p. Cook
is that man. Wholly self-made,
he has acquired a goodly share
of success, struggling alone;and,
still, remains of unquestioned
honor and irreproachable living.
His early life upon the farm
which teaches man the mean
ing of tOil-served a still greater
purpose; as it taught him the
earnestness of living, and pre-
pared him for the battle he was
still to wage in the future. of
natural aptitude for the law, of
unswerving convictions, and,
withal, a kindly, generous heart,
he deserves the highest position
of trust within the gift of his
people, and the voters of the 3rd
Judicial District will honor them
selves by placing him upon the
bench of Justice.
In 1884 he married Miss Sue
w. Holton, of Murray, KY, and
five children bless their home
life, which is an ideal one in
every respect.
Judge Cook is esteemed by all
who know him as an able lawyer,
kind friend and neighbOr, and
loyal citizen.

and the "Acme Mills" will stand
second to none in the "New

All such institutions are a
pride and a benefit to our city

prosperity of Hopkinsville and

Thou canst not then be false to any man,
The world has ever respected
the man, he be ever so high or 50
lowly, who has had the courage
of his convictions, and lived up
to them. No matter how insin-
cere the generality of mankind
may be, it has ever revered sin
cerity in others; and, in every
walk of life, be it trade, manu-
facture, or profession, there are
some who push steadily to the
front, by reason of this dOmi-
nant quality, coupled with supe-
rior ability, stamani, and general
education.
The gentleman of whom it is
our pleasure to speak, in this
sketch, is notable exponent of
this admirable type of humanity
the Hon. Thomas p. Cook-a
distinguished attorney of Muir
ray, Kentucky, and, at present,
the Democratic nominee for
Judge of the 3rd Judicial District.
The emoluments of public Of
flee are, in no wise, adequate to
compensate the labor of an able,
iudicious, and faithful public Of
ficial, who, disregarding affairs
of private moment, devotes all
the energy and ability of a train
ed intellect to the fulfilment of
his manifold duties. Honor is
the great incentive, and love of
Country, or State, impels a man
to make great sacrifices for the
public veal. Self-sacrifice, in
the interest of his constituents,
stamp the patriot, and such is,
again, true of Judge Cook.

cial ermine free from party bias
or political considerations, and
impartial administration of the
law, regardless of class or color, y
