Bulletin

Pending the satisfactory adjust
ment of differences between miners
and operators, we have decided to do
some ARBITRATION on our own
account, We prepared for and ex-
pected an early and large Fall trade,
which is somewhat delayed on ac-
count of the strike, but with our
past record for meeting every emer-
gency we have decided to STRIKE
right into the heart of regular prices,
at the beginning of the season, too,
and as consequence we are now
having a sale hitherto WITHOUT
PARALLEL.
Furniture, Carpets, Bedding,
Ranges, Heaters and everything in
our immense line will be offered at
figures bound "to strike" the thrifty
housekeeper with delight. OUR
POPULAR CREDIT TERMS are
more liberal than ever-to meet the
occasion.

ASSASSINATION OF GosBEL.

The cold blooded Williams who can
deliberately murder a political leader
IN this country To carry out partisan
righteousness and revenge, are the
vagabond enemies to its institutions.
The shot that killed Gov. Goebel was
one Of several fred ut him by as many
selected assassins to do the dastardly
and bloody work. Guiteau had M
hackers, Prendergast had no accom-
plices, but the slayer OF kentucky'S
governor had in the immediate back
ground the active support and venem-
Gus participation of every Republican
scoundrel, including Taylor. who stood
by that pseudo intrusi0nist.
Such is the opinion entertained. and
openly expressed everywhere. The
m0untaineers OF Kentucky are OF the
same ilk as those Of Tennessee, who
supported the notorious Parson
Brownlow and Andy johnson in their
apos lacy to the South at the beginning
OF the war between the States, but
who figured not cOnspicuously as
soldiers during the four years OF fight
ing on either the Confederate or Fed
eral sides. They make moonshine
whiskey from Illicit stills, and are &C.
customed to shoot from behind the
corner, either tree or knoll Of

the windows OF Kentucky's State

victim. Such methods cannot be re.

Dear Editor,

Dear Editor.
have let several weeks pass without
writing for this column. I have been
absent; also busy, but these are not my
only reasons. The last article on writing
seemed to reach those for whom 1t was
intended, and Ihave since received some
very nice letters from few Of our pu-
pills. 1t shows that some of the teach
ers, at least, have needed the advice l
tried so hard to give; therefore, have
decided for the present to let this good
work go on.
You published an editorial on January
18th by the editor of the Yazoo Sentinel,
headed "Send them to School," that
should be read by every parent in this
country. / ask all who have not read
it to do so. Like Bryant's "Thanatopsis,"
1t should be read often.
