Second sSsnday In November. in Maury


The cour\ provided to be held I'M
der the new law in Lawrence on the
3rd Monday in November, will be
adjourned for the benefit of Maury |;
for since under the old law, court
will be held in Lawrence on the 4th

on the 3rd Monday in March; an
interval of 51a months since the last
court; not much greater than usual.
The court provided under the new
law to be held in Giles, on the 4th
Monday in November, will also be
adjourned for the benefit of Maury,
for since a four weeks term will
have been held i'm Giles on the 2nd

necessary to hold another term
there in November; and the next
regular term in Giles will be on the
4th Monday i'm March; an interval
Of about 4 months since the last
term there; not longer than usual
between terms. This will give Maury
three weeks in November next.
This will be the order and arrange

conflict between the old and the

Giles County.


Only one week is allowed by the
new law for Giles, and at the March
term (4th Monday, 1900, in Giles
County, a special term will be ap.
pointed, or the court adjourned over
to the 4th Monday in April follow
ing, being the 22nd day of April.
Court begins at Franklin on lst Mon.
day in April, and this being the first
day of April, will allow 3 weeks for
Williamson, and April having 8
Mondays in it, two extra weeks can
thus be given to Giles, beginning 4th
Monday, (22nd) April. Giles County
will have two weeks at the regular
July term, 1900, because there will
be five Mondays in July; but as
this will be insufficient, special
term for Giles will be appointed for
the lst Monday in Sept which will
be the End day of September, to be-
gin at o'clock p. IN.
The court at Columbia will be
opened on the morning of the first
Monday in Sept, according to law,
and Immediately adjourned to the
3rd Monday (l6th) in September.
By this arrangement giving Giles two
additional weeks in september, 1900,
and still allowing plenty of time

September.
At the November term, 1900, for
Giles, additional time can be pro-
vided in a similar way.

Special terms will have to be ar

FOR RAILROAD COMMITS
SIONER.

For some time the friends OF
Col. A. w. Hamilton have been
urging him to become a candidate
for Railroad Commissioner of this
the Third district, and after ma
ture elaboration he finally, to
their delight, yielded to their per-
suasion, and we are authorized to
say he is candidate subject to the
action OF the Democratic party in
convention at Winchester April
2Ist. Col. Hamilton, ever since
he has been a voter, has been
prominent in politics, unwavering
in Democratic doctrines. When
leaders were feeling their way like
one moping in the dark, Col.
Hamilton, pike the true Dem
ocrat he has always been, came
out squarely on the platform Of
90. He had no time to bubble.
1t was democratic body that
passed that platform, and as
Democrat the thing to do was to
accept it at once, candidate and
all.
1t now appears that the Colonel
will have no opposition, Hon. S.
B. Dishman, Of Barbourville, hav-
ing said to him by letter that he
would not be candidate. II the
Colonel receives the nomination
he will make an active, aggressive
campaign and will receive full
party vote. No man in this sec
ton is better posted on the polit-
cal issues of the day than is Col.
Hamilton, and he will make it
warm for the man who joins with
him in debate. Col. Hamilton is
l competent man, is a worthy
Democrat, and should have the
nomination by the mere asking.

Majority is what the people Of
this county are predicting in the
event Hon. w. ]. Stone is the
Democratic nominee for Governor.
No one is fighting Mr.. Stone,
hence he would get solid Demo-
cratic vote and to the rise. More
than this, his every act has been
Democratic, the people have al
ways known where to place him,
and even the single standard
Democrats are anxious to cast
their votes for Mr.. Stone. Mr..
Stone is winning candidate, one
that grows stronger with each
day. A few weeks ago he would
have been third here, and now
some Of the boys, strong for an
other candidate, are apologizing
that they are not for him. "My
uncle requested me and for his
sake ! am committed" They are
going to the woods,
What is true Of Montgomery
we are informed is also true OF
Clark, Bath and Bourbon, and we
expect the mountains Of Eastern
Kentucky will be united for Mr..
Stone. For long time the people
have had their minds on him for
and now that the time
is at hand he will take possession
Of State affairs.

Hon. w. P. Thorn, of Henry
county, candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for Lieutenant
Governor, spoke here yesterday
afternoon following Hon. w. J,
Stone.
Mr.. Thorn has many friends
here and his speech made more
for him. Mr.. Thorn is right after
the nomination and.we don't see
how he will be headed off. He is
Democrat through and through,
a national Democrat, a bimetallist
strictly speaking, opposed to
the combines and trusts so
ruinous to this country. His
speech was an enjoyable one and
many Of his friends were made
glad.

NO DIFFERENCE.

We are always ready to correct
inaccuracies in any statements we
may make. We have the courage
to try and be just to all men, we
are proud Of it and when there is
any doubt the man or parties
charged get the benefit of the
doubt. Mr.. Carter has been report
ed as saying he did not vote for
Hardin for Governor when he was
Democratic nominee, that he had
voted for other candidates than
Democrats, had even voted for
Republicans and was once Gold
man. If he does not deny this
charge and if readers will substi-
tute this statement for the one he
says is not true land which we &C.
cept) that he voted for Mckinley
and Evans, the principle is ex-
actly the same, that he has been
bolter and for aught the reader
knows is one now.

In announcing Hon. H. V. Nc
Chesney candidate for State
School Superintendent we can say
to the people that we present a
man sound in Democratic doc
trines, on record as bimetallist, a
man of education, thoroughly
equipped for the position, opposed
to the book trust and all other
trusts, combinations and monopo-
lies. He is one of the editors OF
the Livingston Banner, which
paper is not allied with any mon
opoly or trust. The Livingston
Banner is as sound in Democracy
as is Mr.. McChesney and Mr..
McChesney knows nothing for
the interests of the people better
than Democratic doctrines. Aside
from competency in point of edu-
cation and politics Mr. McChes-
ney is a moral man who has high
standing with the best people and
is respected by all. We therefore
cheerfully and gladly present him
to the people Of our section.

INACCURACIES IN THE DIS
PATCH MATTER.

In our. issue of March the 7th
in speaking of the Dispatch matter
the Senior Editor said he had heard
gentleman say that he had heard
Dir. Carter swear he had voted for
Mckinley and Evans against Bryan
and Turner. This matter has been
investigated and the gentleman had
heard another man make that state
ment. We therefore promptly and
gladly accept Mr.. Carter's state
ment that he voted for both Bryan
and Turner, that he worked hard
for their election and contributed
money to help them.

of agreement among some Of the

union Of all who are followers of
the Christ. We admonish our
readers to carefully read it. 1t is
an excellent contribution for your

and life let us all hasten the COM
ing Of that time when the Savior's
prayer shall be answered and his
followers shall be One. This is

INSURANCE-THE COURTS.

In quite a number Of counties
the insurance companies doing
business therein have bsen indict-
ed, charged with being in COM
bine. We have given this matter
some thought, which we give to
the public.
First we find a local organiza-
ton Of companies with an agreed
rate. Is that rate exorbitant?
To indict means that the
companies would withdraw. Such
a measure takes business away.
The insured remain with the COM
panies, while the agents represent
ing them are destroyed. Such a
method takes the agents commits
sion out of circulation, thereby in
juring the business Of every man
in the county to a greater or lesser
degree.
In Covington the local combine
has been done away with and
business goes on as before. In
Bourbon thirty companies with
drew to the detriment of agents
and town; SIS license per COM
pany alone is $3.50, and SO it goes.
We want to get insurance as cheap
as companies economically con-
Quoted can afford to carry it, but
we don't want to cut off our nose
to spite our face By losing the
companies the city loses licenses
and the agents commission. What
can a community afford to do?

Hon. w. B. Fleming, Candi-
date for Democratic nomination
for Attorney General of Kentucky
was in the city Monday and made
a good sound Democratic speech
at the Court House. He made
d favorable impression. Mr..
Fleming is the man who had the
courage of his convictions in 1896.
He had good, fat job in the
treasury department under Hon.
John G.. Carlisle and forfeited his
head because he dared to give ut
terance in favor Of bimetallism and
w. J. Bryan for the Presidency.
fthe people want man for At
torney General who has labored
for his party, who has made sac
rifces. they will consider the
claims Of Mr.. Fleming. In the
Tenth Congressional district no
man has done more for the success
Of the party, and all things equal
the Democrats will remember
him.

Yesterday was beautiful day
and a great crowd attended court.
At the Court house there were
Democratic wit, eloquence and
facts in abundance. The first
speaker was w. J. Stone, candi-
date for Governor. He was intro
duced by DR.. w. r, Thompson and
was enthusiastically received by
the audience, He briefly review
ed the history of the two great
political parties, showing that the
whole tendency Of Republican pol
icies was to centralize wealth en-
riching the few at the expense Of
the many. The Republican party
is not willing to tax the organized
wealth of corporations, syndicates
and monopolies, but seeks to lay
all the burdens Of taxation on the
common people. He then re-
viewed the iniquities Of the pro-
tective tariff system, showing that
protection is designed to bar in
in effect, does not yield revenue as
claimed by the Republican party
but legislates money out of the
pockets of the consumers into the
pockets Of protected industries.
Col. Stone then reviewed the hor-
rors Of the Spanish war and ar
raigncd the Republican party for
its palpable mismanagement and
incompetency; the inconsistency
and injustice Of the war now being
waged against the Filipinos.
Col. Stone reviewed at length the
State Republican administration
showing that they had increased
State taxation 25 per cent. and
had increased the State debt more
than $500, 900, and decreased the
per capita Of the school fund.
That part Of the Colonels speech
which was most heartily applauded
by the audience was his scathing
denunCiation of trusts and COM
bines; showing how these iniqui-
tous concerns are sapping the life
blood OF the nation and reducing
the people to condition of serf-
dom; the only real prosperity
brought to the country was pros
perity to favored classes of stock
holders, controllers Of combines,
etc.; favored legislation restrict
ing trust and protecting the people
from their greed and avarice;
in favor of a liberal free school
system that any child in the State
might haYe an opportunity to Sc
cure an education; the question of
the free coinage Of silver by no
means dead but will be kept to
the front until it wins. He was
heartily applauded.

SCHUETTE'S FIRE BRIGADE.

What might have proved very seri-
Gus fire started i'll the rear of Noelchert' 5
furniture store-in the work room-on
Saturday afternoon last. The fire was
due to spontaneous combustion. The
Fire Department was called out and al
though response was very prompt the
fire was extinguished before the fire lad
dies arrived, Schuette Bros. fire depart
ment did the work.
This is the third fire in the immediate
neighborhood of Schuette's store which
this private department has subdued, Fri
one at Teitgen's hardware store, one at
| Fehr's store and this last 1t is a most
efficient local department and is furnish
ed with all the necessary appliances.
| The gentlemen clerks have been thor
oughly drilled and discipline enables
them TO act promptly and in concert. A
fire within reach can be held in check
until the fire department arrives and
every one knows that one minute at the
! beginning of a fire is worth II after it
! has made Roadway.
But the purpose at the outset was not
to commend the Schuette fire department
but TO urge the adoption of a similar sys-
\ TEN by all the large concerns in the city.
! 1t is wise precaution TO have some
means Of fighting an incipient fire. Man
itowoc has been wonderfully fortunate
! but il will not do 10 trust to good luck.
I The larger concerns should follow the
4 lead of Schuette Bros. in this matter and
the smaller concerns adjoining should
contribute to the equipment and support
of these local departments

THE GOODRICH REPAIR SHOPS

Probably very few know of the vol
umes Of work done by the Goodrich
Transportation Co. here during the past
winter. Practically the entire feet has
been overhauled. All the boats have
had their customary refitting and refur-
nishing, and the Indiana, Virginia and
Christopher Columbus have each been
provided with an extra cabin on the hur-
ricane deck These cabins contain beau
tifully furnished staterooms, some of
them arranged much like the staterooms
Of a Pullman sleeper. They are light
well ventilated and so far removed from
the vibration of the engines that one
would hardly know there was any ma
chinery in the ship. The main cabin Of
the Columbus has been heightened for
ward and a new cafe installed with IL
large gallery on the shell deck immedi-
ately below. The boats eating capac-
ity' is greatly increased by this. The
interior of the Virginia has been much
SlluHStt 'tlillliS lotlll III Vic uoNl
has been removed and the space will be
used for freight The forward portion
Of the main cabin is to be used for the
dining room, with large serving room
adjoining connected with the gallery be-
low by "a steam lift There have been
a large number of other changes and inn
provements
The Goodrich Co have spent more
than $200,000 in their work here this
winter They have had from $50 to 200
men steadily employed in their shops
and on the boats besides the workmen
employed by contracting carpenters and
decorators The weekly pay roll has
averaged nearly $500 for several months
and nearly all of it has been spent here
in town The shops are admirably
equipped for general marine repair work
and for some kinds of construction work
The Goodrich people have provided a
leading industry for the city which is
hardly appreciated at its true value by
the casual observer
