Has a Large Majority

Louisville, Nov. IL. THE executive
committee of the constitutional
amendment met today and received
the report of expenses and transacted
other business of routine nature.
This proposition carried by 20, 900.
The amendment allows every city
and town in the state to have absolute
control of its own municipal taxation.
The money can be raised by license or
the sale of franchises. The real estate
Of manufacturing concerns may. be
taxed and the machinery and stock
exempted. 1t is hoped that from now
on Kentucky will be able to offer ex-
emption from taxation to new indus
trial concerns, which will bring them
in from other states 1t is expected
that the ultimate effect of the adop-
ton of the amendment will lower
taxes, as it will bring more property
into the state to be taxed.

against powerful obstacles it has

race valuable lessons in the art of self
government, in progress, in develop

plenty and prosperity have been given
our people, and it is, therefore, a

General Grants courage was SUI

greater compOsure. He did not seem
to know the meaning of peril when
duty called him TO risk his life. At one
time saw the general escape death by
very slight margin. We were break

and under the fire of a Confederate
battery. All of the headquarters equi-
page had been removed except camp

ting, while the shells of the enemy's
guns shrieked over our heads. a shell
passed just over the general. not miss
ing him apparently by more than few
inches. and struck the ground about
thirty feet away. Without showing
the slightest nervousness he called to
me TO get the shell. saying, Lets
see what kind of ammunition that bat
terry is using" | went and picked up
the shell, which was a six pound spher-
ical case and the general examined 1t
as coolly as If there was not an encmy's

Tobacco situation In Hancock.

Hawesville, Ky, Nov. 1.-The
low prices prevailing all over the
country for the weed and the alarming
publications in the various newspa-

believe that the Hawesville house will
be dark this fall and winter. 1t was

November 1, but even If there are any
buyers going through the county they
have not been heard of. The country

Two window washers were at work
on the lodges of the sixteenth story
windows of a downtown office building
about ten feet from each other. As they
hung to their straps and washed and
polished the glass they could look Into
the offices, where a number of clerks
were bending over ledgers and books.
For a half hour they worked and
watched the clerks, who did not move
from their confined position over their
books. Finally one big window washer
leaned back as far as his strap would
permit and called to his fellow:
