Is For 10 Blackburn and w il
Fight the Machine.
Popular Young Lawyer Arrived To.
day From Frankfort, Ky, to
Get Ready.
WILL WARM THINGS UP SOME.

The Frankfort, Ky, State Journal
of yesterday gives the following in
fomation, which will no doubt be
news to politicians IN this part of 4 he
state; 1T Is rumored In this city that
Mr. James B. Ray, clerk TO Judge
Num-, will enter the race for state
senator In the McCracken district In
opposition to the present senator, J.
w. Campbell. Both are from the
same county"
Mr. Ray practiced law In Paducah
for several years until Judge Num-
was elected to the appellate court.
He has since then been Judge Nunn's
private secretary.
Mr. Ray arrived in the city this
morning from Frankfort, and In re-
gard To the above report. stated that
he thought II very probable he would
enter the race. He came down to
consult with friends and see what the
senatorial committee, which meets
today would do, but said that any
thing the committee might do would
suit him.
He also said that If he makes the
race he will make 1t as a 10 Black
burn supporter. He very readily
said he was for Blackburn. and
would make the race on that issue,
II necessary.
1t is understood that Hon. J. Wheel
er Campbell will be the administra-
tion candidate, and no one seems to
know how the other prospective can
didates stand. Mr.. Ray is a native
of Carlisle county. and is very pop
ular young man throughout the state.
where he is we'll known and has many
friends, especially down here In his
own district.
Mr. Ray is up at Frankfort where
he doubtless comes in daily contact
with the state machine" whatever
IL is, but he does not appear to be
very much afraid of il.
"Do you think you can beat the
machine?" he was asked today.
well, If | didn't wouldn't run,
Is all he said.

SO Notifies City in Regard to
Board Of Health Membership.
Mayor Jokingly Threatens to Veto
the Declination--City Jailer to
Sue the City for $50.
AND OTHER CITY NEWS ITEMS

Mayor Yeiser threatens to veto
the refusal of DR.. j G. Brooks to
qualify as a member of the board of
health.
DR.. j. G.. Brooks was recently
elected a member of the board of
health to succeed DR.. G. II. Broth
ers, resigned, and from the outset
stated he would decline, although he
was grateful and appreciated the
honor bestowed upon him by the
boards in electing him unsolicited,
to the office.
City Clerk Henry Bailey sent DR..
Brooks notice of election, request
ing him to appear before him and be
sworn in. DR.. Brooks wrote under the
notice that he declined the honor,
and when Mayor Yeiser received the
notice today stated he Intended to
veto 1t.
This Is of course, merely a little
joke of the mayors, and DR.. Brooks,
and 1t is probable meeting of the
general council will be held shortly.
City Jaler Tom Evltts says he has
authorized his attorneys, Flournoy &
Reed, ito bring suit against the city
for $50. 1t will be remembered that
the salary of the city jailer was
changed when the city went into the
second class. He formerly secured 15
cents per meal for prisoners but af-
ter the city went into the second
class a salary was fixed, the boards
Illegally making 1t lower than the
minimum in the charter.
Jailer Evitts sued to have the
charter construed, won in circuit
court, and the court of appeals de-
cided that the city had to pay the
jailer at. least the minimum salary,
but decided that the boards could re-
quire him to act as janitor.
The present controversy is over the
fact that the boards held out of the
amount due the jailer after the
court of appeals decision, $50 for
janitor's work it is alleged he did
not do, Patrol Driver Austin being
paid $40 month by the city. Jailer
Evitts will sue for this $50 held out,
claiming that he is entitled to IL. as
he and his deputy really did the
work. Mr.. Austin only looking after
the electric wiring, etc.
