To Diminish IdIing.
(Southern Farm Magazine J

dI hdRdLlIlt. J
Chief of Police j. J. Reagan, of
Lexington, Kv., has issued an order
that all idlers in the town, whites or
blacks, shall be arrested, and if tney
fail to give good account of them
selves they will be set to work for the
city. There has been complaint in
Lexington and nearby towns of inabI-
ity to secure help in the fields and in
the homes, although many negroes
We're idling about. But the order was
the immediate result Of the failure Of
couple of farmers, who had offered
81 80 day TO ten negroes loafiug at
street corner, TO secure their services
The loafers were ~ II ediat, ly arrested
and given the chance of being locked
up or going to the country to work.
Chief Reagan holds very properly that
when a lot of negroes are seen stand
ing at street corners loafing during
the day one is likely to hear of bur
glaries at night, as idlers must live,
and if they do not work they must
beg or steal or live upon some others
begging or stealing. If other chiefs
of police or similar officers in the
South would take such a positive stand
against idling and vagrancy the ur-
gent cry for labor would be greatly di-
minished.

Mayor POweIl'S Latest.

Here is the latest product OF Mayor
Powell, of Henderson, the famous
proclamation writer who has attracted
wide spread attention
LABOR DAY PROCLAMATION.
All hail Sovereign Queen OF Labor
Day. The mesmeric mandate, our de-
light is to obey. Therefore, with
sweet acclaim. do proclaim Monday,
September 4, 1905, day of rest and
recreation in our domain. To all good
people a welcome is rendered sincere
as the blush of a modest maid, and
pure as the smile uf a beautiful babe.
Let Freedoms banner wave to the
music of Yankee Doodle and Dixie.
Unchecked by the poetry of motion
to those who ENJOY such delightful
whirlings. Hear booming bombshells
of burning eloquence bursting on the
breeze. See Senoro shanghigh, the
sword swallower. In the dense foliage
of the wild tangled wood find the
famous fleet footed fat famine. Behold
the prize baby tug at pretty mammy's
clothes, and pull on ugly daddy's nose.
Let whole carloads of innocent frolic
and fun be dealt out to everybody. Not
peruna or rocky mountain tea. nor all
the celery compounds and swift speci-
tics, mingled with a tea of soul-stirr-
ing and stomach soothing syrups can
bring unto you such thrill of JOY as
the rejuvenating recollection of this
colossal celebration. Glory Hallelujsh.
Rush to Henderson and get a glimpse
of Heaven. Labor laughs loudest in
land of liberty. Those who toll best,
know how sweet it is to rest. When
the starry splendor of the night grows
dim, and the glorious sun of another
day shall summon you to work aud
duty, may you go forth refreshed and
live thousand years of happiness and
success In testimony of these practi-
cal tictions and patriotic truths, 1 do
here unto subscribe my official sigma
ture this 18th day of July, 1905.

Mayor of the City of Henderson, Ky.

was almost a certainty that the
proposed road from Madisonville
to CloverpOrt was 90. Since that
time we have talked with those
who have the matter under advise

than ever that the road will be
built.
The matter has passed beyond
the uncertainty and it is probable
that it will be but a short time un-
til actual work will begin on its
construction. That the road will
be of great benefit to both Madi-

south, is responsible for it's con-
tinued intrusion into national poll
tics. We are pretty confident that
we can confine our part in this
issue, to this section of the coun-
try, and take care of it, too, to
the satisfaction of ali parties liv-
ing here, if only the mischief
makers of the north will let us
alone. We are having neither the
unseemly school riots of Boston
because of this question, nor the
vicious threats recently heard in a

beating the negro here because he
wants to work, as the whites did

savage raids against the race simp-
ly because it is black, as was the
case recently in New York. We
punish the individual for his own
crime, but We do not permit the

us into a wholesale armed attack

tice of certain other sections of

the medicinal curative elements. of
which there are abeut fifty different
kinds IN the Gods liver from the oil.
and give to modern medicine all the
tonic. bodybuilding and curative prop
ertles of that grand old remedy cod
hver oil, unencumbered by the oily.
greasy part, which science had proved
81 no value whatever, either as a food
or medicine. Thus they. produced
Vinol.
Vinol is guaranteed to contain in a
highly concentrated form all the medi-
cinal elements of cod liver oil, actually
taken from fresh Gods livers, and wher-
ever old fashioned cod liver oil or
emulsions will DO good, Vinol will do
far more good-for being without oil.
1t is delicious to the taste, easily assim-

Vinol tones up the digestive organs,
creates a hearty appetite, makes rich,
