those working up the hotel and opera
house are meeting with. That's what
we are interested in. Right here in
Lancaster is where Lancaster people
make their meat and bread and what
we want to see is the good old town
built up. The parties getting the
stock have secured in black and white
an even eight thousand dollars. Sew
eral other parties who want stock have
not yet been seen, and all necessary
is for them to sign the paper and new
building is assured Each stock holder
will pay two hundred dollars down
and the balance in monthly Install
ments of about sixteen dollars Sew
eral parties not able to take a whole
share have purchased jointly with 9TH
ers Two men can carry a share and
never miss the money. that is if they
are any kind of hustlers In the pre-
posed building will be two store rooms
and there have already been four or
five applicants for them. Four men
want the hotel and three the opera
house. We haven't the space to go in
to details, but it can be readily seen
by investigation that the investment
will easily pay seven per cent on the
money put in. If any one doubts this
statement and is interested, he can be
quickly convinced by asking Dr.. Kin
naird, j ohm E. Stormes,J j. C.. Thompson,
or any of the promoters of the enter
prise. 1t is the intention to collect
the two hundred dollars. first pay

Election in Garrard.

The quiet, Indifferent manner in
which the election passed off tuesday,
was the cause of much comment, as
those of former days have most al
ways been characterized by several
fights, knock-downs and such like
The day was very much on the order
of a school trustee election. At no
time during the entire day were more
than a hundred people on the Public
Square. Those who voted came to tie
polls, deposited their ballots and eth
err went home or to their business. We
have it from leaders of both parties
that no money or whisky was at hand,
and the woe-begone look on the old
floats" strongly bore out the state
ment. AS both parties had up good
men, it is hard to understand why the
vote should fall off so materially I'M
less it is from the fact that many men
have determined to quit messing" in
politics and attend strictly to their
work at home. The table below was
made from figures cried at the polls,
and may differ slightly on the official
and final count, but no material change
will be made. The bonds carried by
an overwhelming majority. AT most
polls, parties were stationed to call
the voters attention to the bonds, but
even with this many went in the
booth, stamped under the rooster or
cabin, and forgot the pixies. The ma
jority is safe and the court can now is
sue the bonds. This will dispose of
the hardest and most important part
of the turnpike question, and we move
to hang the next man who brings up
the subject Here's the vote by pre-.
cincts. Zeigler gets 40 votes in county.

Prospect for More Trains,

A Lancaster man had a talk with a
prominent rail road official the other
day and was told that it was the inten.
ton of the company to ballast the
track and put new steel rails on this
road in the spring. Then the COM pa
ny would more than likely put the day
trains, now running to Livingston,
through here. We have heard several
officials express themselves as delight
ed with the recent change and it is
nighly proba bic that the last mention
ed idea will be carried out The trav-
ell between Richmond and Livingston
does not amount to much, and the day
trains could run through here and
make a close connection at Rowland
for Livingston and points south. The
run would be shorter and much more
convenient for the train crews.
