old, yet up-to.date clown j j.
Mann Of Fallsburg. A live session
Is being held, Reports Of officers
show n marked Improvement in
the order throughout The state dur
ing the year and much credit is
due the "tried and true" friend OF
the order. q. w. Enyart, OF Can
nonsburg, for his efforts as Grand
Chief OF the order In the State dur
ing the past year. The session
opened Tuesday morning at 10
O'Clock sharp, with g. w. Enyart
Ia the chair. During the day the
time was given mostly to the Com
mittee on Credentials, G. Is. Car.
ter, q. w. Chapman and l.. w.
Wood, which reported on Wednes-
day at $3.50 a. M.
on Wednesday an up.to-date
banquet was given by Charity Cas-
tie No. II, which was LIST class in
every particular. The address Of
welcome was delivered by the Rev.
X. b Neal, who Is known by many
Louisa people, and the effort was
a.masterly one. During his talk
divine inspiration seemed to seize
him, and at its close everybody
was compelled to applaud. The
response was given on behalf Of
the order, by past Grand Chief q,
W. Chapman, which was also one
OF the best efforts ever put forth.
Other lesser lights gave interest
ing toasts, aud upon the whole day
was full OF interest. The ladies Of
the town manifested much inter
est In the pleasure Of the day, and
much credit is duo them for their
efforts on behalf Of heordcr.
The business proper, OF the or
der is now on and smooth sailing
is the order Of the day. No tenn
pest has arisen as yet to disturb
the surface,
The able Legislators OF the order
are doing some active service and
some useful and important laws
iaro being enacted.
In Grayson we find no exception
to the general rule Of "Big Sandy
Leading the world" for we find
VIM. Cooksey, Of Fallsburg, as the
leading merchant, and DR. G, b.
O'Roark as the leading physician
OF the entire county, and we are
Justly proud OF the boys from Big
sandy. We also find +. f, Dobbins
of Gallup here, as an enterprising
youth, who is now aspiring to the
position OF Cashier in the new bank,
being organized with w, Nj Cook
sey the moving central figure in
the enterprise. Again Big Sandy
is in the lead.
Many stock farms surround this
town, the Hoard Brothers, the Ru-
pert Brothers and Wilhoits lead
ing in that line. An Ohio dealer
was here last week and bought two
hundred head of fine cattle, for
the Eastern Market, for which he
paid good prices.
Politically, Carter county is
largely Republican, but the pros
poets are exceedingly bright for a
greatly reduced vote this fall in
their ranks on the account of the
very great popularity Of the Hon
j. y. Kehoe, the Democratic can.
dldate for Congress, who will
sweep things here almost like a
new broom. The Grayson Herald
is doing It's part toward securing
the success of the Democratic
party.
We have two Republican papers
that are not so very hostile toward
Kehoe, we are glad to say.
Mrs. VIM. Cooksey has returned

most accomplished musicians II
