The prices realized are very fair.
Mrs. Fannie mitchell, who has
been very much indisposed for the
past week, we are glad TO say, is
improving.
Rumor says we are soon to have
a telephone line running through
from Bagdad to Frankfort, which
will add much TO our community.
Mr.. Harry Rodgers and family
have moved to Lexington. MIR.
Rodgers is at work in the l.. d n.
Yard. Harry IS clever fellow,
and we wish him success in his
new field of labor.
Well, electioneering is over for
3 time, and we hope that some of
our hard working politicians will
rest from their labor. We really
think that the strain has been
great, carrying extreme loads of
tanglefoot, and encouraging their
candidates by wagering their last
dUllar. At last Benson precinct
was extended over jacksonville,
Bagdad, and elem over III Indiana.
If boys wore long pants they were
considered legal voter. a try
ing campaign it was.
Mr.. James Whitman and wife
left Monday for visit to rela-
tives and friends in Lexington.
Mrs. J. H. Sudduth, of Lees
town, is very i'll at this writing.
Misses Eta Allison and Naomi
Clark are attending school at
Frankfort.
Mrs. Pearl Mitchell is visiting
relatives on Stoney Greek.
Mr.. Sam Hulette and wife have
gone to housekeeping in the home
formerly occupied by Mr.. Hulette.
We wish them every success pos
sible all along the voyage of hfe's
rugged sea.
During the present term of the
court we truly hope that some
effort may be made to punish
those who attend social gather
ings. yes even religious worship,
for the sole purpose of disturbing
or conn hitting some low-lived
deed to the congregation. At an
entertainment, which was given
few weeks ago, there we're all
sorts of misdemeanors. Horses
were deprived of name and tail;
buggy robes cut to pieces, one was
stolen; improper language was
used, and one horse so badly
treated that he died from the
effects. Now friends and fellow
citizens, can you tell of anything
much worse that has taken place
in the mountains amongst those
much detested people? If there
is any form of law there at all, it
is as much enforced as here in
Franklin county. Shame and dis
grace is lowering over our land,
from north to south, by reason of
the lack of pre- te ,tion by the Office
holders. / am no office-seeker,
nor even politician in particular,
nut ] would scorn to cast avote
for the man that would not do
Justice to his fellow man, ard
how could we expect justice for
ourselves when he had done him
self the injustice of accepting an
Office to which he had not been
Justly elected? Awake thou that
sleepest, and arouse from your
lethargy, and God will give thee
light.
Messrs. Floyd and Leslie Young
made business trip to Louisville
last Tuesday.
Mr.. Tom Hulette has added
much to the appearance of his
dwelling by new coat of boxing.
Mr.. Warren Pulliam is erecting
a new house on his premises,
which will soon be complete, the
Semonious Bros. contractors.
Mr.. Allen Stigers, of Switzer,
paid his respects to Miss Eta
Allison Saturday night and Sun
day. Allen is a handsome young
gent, while Miss Eta is a most
accomnlished lady. Oh. what a
