If there is a Democratic nominee
who fails to work and see that his
friends are likewise at work, he or
they will be remembered. This is
a party fight; it is Democratic
principles against Republican
principles. Our candidates repre-
sent our principles and if they do
not do their full duty the party
will hold them to strict account. .

Water Works.

The citizens of Mt. Sterling will
on next Tuesday decide by their
votes whether they will build and
own their own water works or they
shall be built and owned by
another and the city pay water
rental.
To us it occurs that 1t would be
good bushes to build and own our
own works. If another can afford
to build and operate, why not the
city2
Again, a corporation would be
here not for the peoples interest,
but self alone. If a company de-
sired to locate here the induce
ments would not come from the
water company. With ownership
in the city an offer of free water
and free taxes for period Of years
would be no little inducement.
We favor the city owning her own
water plant and light plant. In a
convention of Mayors a short time
since this very question was be-
fore them, and the decision was, if
we mistake not, unanimous in ia
vor of the ownership of such
plants being by the city.
Again, in a drouth like this
water for our poor would be gratu-
itous if the city owned her works,
and on the other hand a heartless
corporation would demand pay
ment for every drop of water
used, Finally, the city by float
ing her bonds and by creating
a sinking fund, could within 20
years own her own plant free of
debt; while a hydrant rental of
81, 500 with a yearly increase
would amount to every cent of
100000, and the ownership be in
the hands of another.
Mt. Sterling can own her own
works, and all the money
drawn from our people would
be circulated within our own
borders, and not in foreign
cities. Let Mt. Sterling build her
own plant.

Mrs, Rogers, wife of Prof. Abner
Rogers, sang at the Baptist church
last Sunday morning "Fear Not Ye,
o Israel" Mrs. Rogers is beauti-
full singer. She has complete control
of her voice the highest and lowest
notes are equally musical. We have
heard some of the most famous sing
ers, and we pronounce Mrs. Rogers
among the very best.

The negroes, who by their 10y
atty to the Republican party, as
sisted by Boiling Democrats, gave
the Administration of the State to
the Republicans, are considered
alike. Their votes are acceptable,
but dare either the negro or the
recent affiliationists to ask rewards
for their labors and such requests
are not given a decent considera-
ton. DIR. Morton was an appli-
cant for pension surgeon. He is
in every way qualified, his in
dorsements as to character and
ability were first-class, and he was
slated for the appointment. On
the very eve of realization, it is
said, and if denied we have never
heard of it, that one of the leading
white Republicans went to Wash
ington, had the appointment held
up, and in few days another
was put il his place. This is only
one instance Of the treatment of
the negro. Such privileges are
their only rights. A few even
ings ago a leading Republican, an
office holder, in a public speech to
the colored people compared their
race with Moses wanderings in
the wilderness, and told them that
Moses was with his people for
forty years. They murmured
after wandering twenty years but
had to stand it forty years. The
speaker conveyed the idea that
the negro must vote on with them
twenty years more before they
could enter the promised land,
and enjoy the honors and salaries
of office. No negro will be allow
ed to hold office in this county for
twenty years was the import of
that speech. The new converts
and Boiling Democrats are in the
same boat with the negroes.
James O'Connell, former Demo
crat, because of a matter of con-
science joined the Republican par
ty. He wanted to make the race
for Police Judge later on, when he
was informed that he could have
the privilege of voting the Repub-
lican ticket, but his name could
not go on the ballot under the
party device. He was turned
down. He had not been initiated
into the Clique organization Of the
party. And the National Demo.
crat in the person of Judge H.
Clay Mckee when he asked recog-
milton it was ridiculous and they
placed Judge Mckee, James
O'Connell and the negro in the
same coop.

PUBLIC sPEAKrNGI
In the Interest Of Free Turn Pixies.

On Saturday afternoon the 30th
instant the voters Of Montgomery
county regardless of politics are
hereby notified to meet at the
Courthouse at 2 o'clock to consider
questions pertaining to the interest
of Free Turn Pixies. This is i'm
portant to every citizen of the
county and they should allow
nothing to keep them away.

Knocked Out.

The mandamus proceeding to
compel the County Clerk, G. L.
Kirkpatrick to put the name of
James O'Connell for city Judge on
the ballot of this county, was tried
in Lexington on yesterday before
Judge Parker. A demurrer having
been filed, he sustained it on the
ground that he had no jurisdiction.

The question of free turnpikes
and bond issue to raise money
with which to pay for the roads
when purchased, is to be voted
on next Tuesday. The people
are in favor of free turnpikes and
will so vote, but in addition to
this if we would purchase the
roads and open the gates we must
vote for the bond issue also.
Every voter who favors free turn
pixies must not forget to vote for
the bond issue if they would COM
plete the deal.

The Louisville Post, of Thurs

est government.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1897-10-29

If the people of Montgomery
county would have free turnpikes
they must vote for the bond issue.
Should we vote for free turnpikes
and fail to vote for the bond issue
we would have the same trouble
confronting us as has Bath county.
To have free turnpikes we must
vote for both.

Kirkpatrick has exhausted his re-

are right when you say Watt was
entitled to the nomination.
