Many democrats OF Casey will doubt
less take the opportunity TO hear Sena-
tor Goebel at stanford, Monday. May 8.
a coffin drummer was in Yosemite
one day last week advertising his
goods last thing on earth man
would want.
Capt Green preached at the Baptist
church Sunday and Sunday night to
good sized audiences Rev r. l. Creech
preached at Russell Springs. The cap
tain will move to the burg some time
10 May.
There Is scarcely a stream In the
whole county without mill set and IL
IL not uncommon to find two or more.
Ten years ago IL was thought the tim
Der Ia this county had been exhausted,
but there Is coolies OF 'er yet.
There is heavy apple bloom this
year and II Is TO be hoped that there
will be a bountiful crop as all other
fruits are dead, even to blackberries.
Rose bushes are killed also: DON, know
what the elite will do for bouquets.
Farmers are busy preparing the soil
for planting. Very little corn has been
planted yet. Farmers are no later than
they were last year. Anglers are get.
ting Ia good time-Gshing and spinning
yarns. The large hole of water below
the mill is lined from sun up to sun
down with fishermen.
w. 7. Sharp, the one-horse repre-
sentative from Casey and Russell coun-
ties. is a candidate for the republican
nomination OF superintendent OF public
instruction. 1t Is sincerely hoped by
all democrats, who are acquainted with
the Russell county statesman. that he
will come out triumphant in the uomi-
mating convention-an then let him
and the democratic ticket will be
strengthened fully 5000 votes. He is
another Deboe.
Miss Florence Christopher has re-
turned To her home in Buena Vista. j..
G. Collinsworth was in Danville and
Lebanon the fret OF the week. G.. II.
Wesley Is in from Adair county. J
w. McWhorter, Sr., Is visiting friends
and relatives In Frankfort aud Cincin-
natl. DR.. |. 5. Wesley, of Lancaster,
and a Mr.. Northcott, a young produce
man Of the same town, were 10 the
burg last week.
Hardly a day passes but what Is, q
or more loaded wagons pass through
this place for the station. The Lincolr
: end OF the road has been almost impas
sable, but is some better now. IL wa.
no uncommon sight few weeks ago Il
find half dozen or more wagons stall
ed, with the wheels in mud over the
hub. between Freetown and McWheat's
a distance OF about quarter OF a mile
Free turnpikes are not what they are
cracked up TO be.
A typographical error in our last
communication made us say that the
. county G. A. X. would hold their meet
ing here May 20, when IL should have
: been May both. which will be on Tues.
day. Some OF the old veterans were
, bothered over the error and they hope
this correction will have the widest
publicity possible. The reunion and
decoration services will be held at the
Middleburg Cemetery. Our people are
very enthusiastic over entertai ming the
old soldiers this year, and large crowd
IRON all over this and adjoining coun.
ties are expected. Congressman Bore
a ing and Judge George Denny have beer
n invited to make addresses and II tn,
q Lost Cause is represented Col, X. J
Breckenridge will be asked to speak.
y There are some RAIDS in this necl
n and IL is said TO be worse in other part
of the county, who are not pleased a
u all with the action of the republican
committee of two or three men namin.
T., II. Taylor, tor representative, ant
many OF them vow, that he will neve
N 20 To Frankfort by their votes. II tn
dissension among the republicans o
Russell is anything like that OF Casey
D, good democrat could win IL is ia
a deed pity that such men as tn
m Messrs. Stones, either j. Boyle, Geo
N +. or Bryant. would not accept tn
&c nomination. Either could win. Tn
g. row still continues in the g. o. p. 1
s. Casey, and If the democrats would onl
Id do their part, ere long she will b
~ found In the democratic column as {
'k the good old days OF yore.
