DEMOCRATIC PkRTY
LEADERS APPLAUD
THE ENROLMENT.

Democratic state and city leaders without exception view the
work of the committee of II in branding the renegade Democrats as
outside the pale of the party and unworthy of a voice in its caucuses
as well as labelling enemies as such with satisfaction and open appro-
baton.
Col. p. H. Quinn, in reviewing the work o. the committee and its
probable results, said he knew of no other state leader of the Demo-
cratic party that was opposed to the principle or its putting into
effect.
From all sides. despite the whining of disappointed scheners
who have been plotting the ruin of the party and the delivery of the
city to their employers, come words of appreciation, for these first
steps in Kidding the Providence Democracy of the drags and destroy
ers that have pulled and kept it down for years. :.

To Tobacco Growers.

En-. Pass | want TO explain to
the tobacco growers the advantage Of
curing their tobacco under the pro-
cess gave them last week.
The English government has plae-
ed an extra duty on all tobacco that
has the stem taken out, 50 that all
export tobacco which is shipped to
that country has TO 90 IN the leaf
with the stem in it, and in crossing
the ocean IL the stem is not thorough
~ cured by FIRE it will mold and make
il almost worthless, and the farmer
can cure his tobacco great deal
cheaper than the buyer can.
Las, week | gave my views as re-
CARDS curing tobacco, and after the
tobacco is thoroughly cured it should
be bulkcd and let it lay in bulk for
sixty days or longer before you strip
it, 80 that the leaf may draw from the
stalk all Of the oil that may be left in
it, which will give the leaf an oily
appearance and uniform color and
all tobacco in that condition will
bring the highest market price.
Should there come season after
you get through firing, aud your to-
bacco comes in high order, build up
small fires under your tobacco aud
dry il before you bulk it, and | want
every farmer who has tried TO fire his
crop by my process, to write me at
View, KY, and give his name and
post office, SO that | can find him and
| will go and see his tobacco, and not
To sell until can lcok at it.
Respectfully,

DYCUSBURG.

Our town is one of the busiest pla-
ces at this time that can be found in
the county. The streets are literally
jammed with men and wagons on the
way to the canning factory with to-
matoes, about 1900 cans of which are
put up daily. Nearly every boy and
girl in town is employed. Mr.. NJ. l..
Bennett has charge of the factory,
and is hustling things.
There ARE few mild cases of scar
let fever in town.
Master George Graves was riding
down Main street Monday at a rapid
gait when his horse fell and bruised
him badly but not seriously.
Mr.. Jack Dalton has just complet-
ed and moved into one of the pretti-
est cottages in town.
The meeting begins at the Baptist
church Sunday.
The NJ. L. Sunday school will meet
at the school house while the new
church house is being built.
Dr. Phillips is going to erect a
handsome drug store on the corner
of Main and Yancy streets.
Dycusburg is a beautiful village of
several hundred inhabitants. 1t is
connected by telephone with all the
neighboring cities. 1t is surrounded
by some of the richest farming lands
in the State. 1t was named after old
uncle William Dycus, one of the first
settlers. Ii was located at this place
because of the facilities offered for a
good road to the river for the sur
rounding country in reaching the riv-
er with their produce. There is not
place on this ole earth whose peo-
pie are more generous hearted. There
are no Migrants, dry goods box whit
tiers or professional loafers, but each
one has enough to do to attend to his
own business and let that of his neigh
bors alone. Most of the old settlers
are dead; a very few of them are liv-
ing here. Old uncle Bill Bennett is
still hale and hearty, and as spry as a
ten year old boy. 1t is interesting
to hear him tell of the early days Of
Dycusburg. Messrs. Cole Bennett,
Giles Cobb and Gid Cobb, are all
dead. A great many goods have been
stored away in their warehouses; in
the earlier days and many boats were
loaded from them.
