Other towns aud cities throughout
the State have some kind of business
organization which has for its pur-
pose the development OF the indus
trial, ecoi omicisl and material utter
ests of the place where they exist.
We have carefully watched and noticed
with much pleasure the good result,
as reported in the newspapers and
through other sources, which have
been accomplished solely through
the influence of these organiza-
tions. Why cannot the business
men of Lexington form such an or
ganization to work for the growth OF
the town and the extension Of its
business interests. If We expect in
this age when the race for success is
to the swift and the dollars comes to
the active and energetic, to quietly
sit down in idleness and Incidence
and spend the balance Of our days in
frightening capital and enterprise
away so that they will not come
thitherwards by shouting at the top
of our voices, "hard times" "the
town is dead" and imagine that the
only thing God created US for is to
decry the Efforts put forth by THEN
more progressive neighhors to build
up their town, We repeat, that if We
expect to better our condition by such
methods, then we will awake when it
is too late to realization that while
We slept the tide of fortune passed
US by and rewarded more thrifty and
industrious communities. These or
ganiz zations, as We have said before,
have been very successful elsewhere
in attracting the attention Of capital
and productive of splendid results,
and there is no earthly reason, unless
it be carelessness or indifference, why
one would not work as satisfactorily
here as well as elsewhere. We
can rest assured of one thing and
that is, nothing will be accomplished
along the line Of progress through
inactivity. We must put our shoul-
ders TO the wheel and keep pushing
it along. We must put forth united
effort and use every legitimate means
at our command to build up ou,
town. Let US get together and do
something for the prosperity of Lex
ington. Each one of US can do some
ting no matter how small, it is from
small things that great results fol.
low. The effort is we'll worth trying
so let Us be up and doing.

No Long Tunnels for Her.

"Don't you wish," he asked, look

tunnels on this line were ten times
as long,"
no." she answered, emphatically.
1t struck him like dash of cold
water in the face. Instantly il
dawned upon him that she no longer
loved him.
They always light the car lamps

she added, "and they don't for the

SENATOR MORGAN
Thinks Silver is Still a
Political Issue
Bryan at Present In Line for the
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Still Loyal
to Expansion.

WASHINGTON, August 17-Sena-
tor Morgan, who is spending the sum-
mer at Admission Inn, La, has changed
his political views little. He stated
this afternoon in an interview with the
correspondent of the Washington
Times that the Democrats should abide
by the Chicago platform without any
amendment or modification; that he
would be entirely satisfied with any
nominee who would sincerely accept
that platform as the basis of his polit-
ical administration; that in case the
Republicans should pass their curren-
cy bill, silver would again become
predOminating issue of the next Presi-
Dental campaign; that Bryan, as
Democratic leader on that plank of the
Chicago platform, would be the logical
nominee of the party, and that a silver
man would be elected President in
1900
Morgan reiterated his confidence in
the policy of expansion, declared that
Bryan and Mckinley concurred in the
opinion that the war in the Philippines
would be prosecuted to a successful
conclusion; that no political party
| which would oppose the United States
Government in it's earnest attempt to
suppress the instruction in the Phil
| ippines would be sustained by the
American people, and expressed his be-
| lief that the Democratic party could
| never be led into any such attitude.
Il think that the Democratic party
in the Chicago PLATFORM" said Morgan,
gave a free, full and clear expression
| of the Democratic creed governing a
number of subjects. l think we ought
to abide by that policy without any
! amendment or modification. l should
be entirely satisfied with any nominee
who will sincerely accept that platform
| as the basis of his political administra-
ton. At the present moment Mr.. Bry-
| an is the leader Of the party on the
| silver plank in that platform.

Coming Attractions

Advices received by local parties
state that the Clay Clement Dramatic
Company will probably play an en-
gagement here in the near future. The
famous O'Neill Company, OF Clncin-
natl, one of the best regular stock COM
panies in the States, is also among the
list of possibilities. a letter has also
been received from Harry CorSon
Clarke, one of Honolulu's favorites, in
which he regrets his inability TO play
at Honolulu this season, but expects
to make it in the spring. He referred
humorously to the trouble between
himself and Frawley which has
caused much talk in the theatrical
world.

SEATTLE BEER IN PARIS.
Only Brewery on the Coast to Be Rel
resented.

Only Brewery on the Coast to Be Rep
resented.
The Seattle Brewing & Mailing Co.
is the only Brewery on the Pacific
coast represented at the Paris EXPOSE
ton. DR.. H. w. Wiley, chief of the di-
vision of chemistry of the department
of agriculture and appointed to have
charge of the exhibition of beverages,
candies, molasses, ETC., at the display,
was in Seattle on the morning of Au-
gust II to learn if local brewers wished
to have their product in the cOmpe-
tition for the medals. The result of
his labors was that the Seattle Brew
ing & Mailing Company will send sam
pies of their product in accordance
with the Government regulations.
DR.. Wiley had just arrived from Cal
ifOrnia, where he was arranging for
the exhibit of wines. There will not
be many samples of wines," he said in
the morning, "only few of the choic-
est varieties being submitted. The
Government does not wish to be load
ed down with lot of ordinary goods
in Paris. For that reason 1 came to
Seattle, learning in the East, as we'll
as in San Francisco, of the fine quail
ty of the beer made here, and may say
now that this city will be the only
one on the Pacific coast that will have
an exhibit at the Paris exposition. |
find the quality of the Seattle beer
much superior to that made in Cali
fornia; San Francisco beer seems to
be fiat. The Oregon brewers did not
seem to care to send their product to
the exposition"
The Doctor has been chief of his bu-
reau at Washington for the last sew
enteen years. This is his first trip to
Puget Sound. and he expressed regret
that he could not carry out his origi-
nal intention of remaining here ten
days. He went to Tacoma on the
11:15 Flyer, and will at once return to
the East.
