OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
HowARD's CHAPEL.
ii Dist.

Alexander Church made it necessary to
move this meeting to Howards Chapel.
This school is in few PAGES of Rev.
Howard's, deceased, old home. He was
leading figure in promoting the early
educational development of the comun-
nifty, hence it was named for him. The
old Howard farm is still in the possession
of the family, James, the youngest son,
now owning 1t. Rev. Howard was
prominent minister in the G. P. Church
and has one son George who is now
minister in that church in Indian Ter
ritory. Jno. w. is the best known of
any of the Howard boys in Lawrence
County, having been prominent can
didate for Sheriff three times for the
past few years. So much for the place.
Now for the day. Well every white
school in the district was represented.
There were visitors too from every
school, in spite of the busy time and
inclement weather. Some black board
work in language was given, which was
received with marked interest by the
pupils and they seemed to have made
advancement along this line since the
former rally. Then followed the
spelling match, an interesting one in
deed and one that was highly creditable
to the schools of District IA. The
honors were distributed among the
three schools almost evenly and the
delegates selected are very earnest in
their desire to carry off the honors at
the Central spelling match. The teach
ers were all present and manifested a
commendable interest in the school
work. The teachers are Misses Leda
Collier, and Annie Gillian, Miss Ethel
Baker and Mrs. Elizabeth Wheat. The
populur clerk of the board WI. Keeton
was the only director present.
The delegates selected were as fol-
lows:
Messrs:-
Frank Gillian
Earnest Collier,
Edward Collier,
Ralph Washburn,
Msses:-
Jennie Dawes,
Ursie Keeton,
Diliia Dickey,
Susan Alexander,
Florence Walker.
After all the delegates but one had
been chosen and the ones and tw0s
were called ZIP the contest for that, it
was the hottest contest yet held in the
county, Among those who almost won
were Hettie Keeton, Edna Escue, Far
ris Alexander, Hughes Rutledge, and
Sadie Prewett.
The IA district schools are certainly
doing good work. The Mt. Horeb
school is adding fine room to its
house, and has had the grounds consist
ing of about acres cleared off, They
have good blackboards, some splendid
globes for geographical work, some
charts and nice seats.
The Brace school has an IS inch
globe which is the best in the County.
The Howard's Chapel school has one
not so large. These were bought al
most without assistance from public
funds with the proceeds of entertain
ments.
The interest in the grand parade is
good in District IA and it may be ex
pected to join in that part of the days
exercises ON November II.

What used TO be called female diseases
By Che medical profession - now called
pelvic catarrh. IL has, been found by
experience that catarrhal diseases Of the
pelvic organs are the cause of most
cases of female diseases.
DR.. Hartman was among the first of
Americas greatest physicians to make
this discovery. For forty years he has
been treating diseases peculiar to women
and long ago he reached the conclusion
that 8 woman entirely free from ca
tarrhal affection of these organs would
not be subject to females diseases. He,
therefore, began using, Reruna for these
cases and found it soadmirably adapted
to their permanent curethat Peruna has
now become the most famous remedy
for female diseases ever known. Every.
where the women areeusing it and praiss
ing it. Peruna is mott q. palliative simf
ply; it cures by removing the cause OF
female diseases.
Peruna builds up, tina nerves and, re-
stores the appetite anddigestion.
DIR. Hartman has,proAably cured more
women of female, ailments than any
other living physician He makes these
cures simply by using and recommend
ing PeTuna.

says: This great specific complete.

THE COUNTY CAMPAIGN.

With the election only ten days
off, it is now conceded on all hands
that the result. so far as the county
ticket is concerned, is IN great doubt,
Democrats are confident of sue
cess for their anti-ring ticket, and
some very prominent Republicans
openly admit that a split ticket"
win be the outcome. Both parties
have taken poles Of the county and
the ring ticket is thoroughly scared
and the Democrats greatly encour-
aged. The Republican majority is
not nearly so large as it has been
claimed. Under normal conditions
there are about 1900 Republicans in
the county, but at least 25 per cent.
Of them are opposed to hereditary
ring rule in the county and the re-
turns from some strong Republican
districts are going to be eye-openers
to the ringsters. Party lines seem
to be practically wiped out. Indeed,
at least one of the ring candidates
whose defeat seems surest, is hang
ing on by his eyebrows and hoping
against hope that his Democratic
friends will save him.
For the first time in years money
is talking" for the Democratic
ticket. By this time next week the
betting will be in favor of the Dem
ocratic ticket. The entire Dem
ocratic ticket will win, unless Dem
ocrats stay away from the polls
One thing is certain-the Republi
cans are going to do their part il
defeating ring rule.
All over the county the Democrat
are well organized and inspired will
hope. They say they are going t.
vote and see that their neighbor
vote. If they do this, it is all owe
but the shouting.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever: nine cases out Of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an infiamed condition Of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

A good many voters are liable to
lose their votes by not taking care
of their registration certifcat es.
There are more than 1000 of these
certificates held by voters and it
would be very unusual if some of
them did not misplace the valuable
receipts. Better put it in some safe
place at your place of business. You
will have to take it with you when
go to vote and if you do not produce
it you cannot vote. A voter who
has lost his certificates and is willing
to go before the county clerk and
swear that he has lost it, can, by
paying so cents, get a duplicate.
If he knows where it is and swears
he has lost it he will have to perjure
himself to get duplicate. In the
last election, the Republicans had
workers at the registration polls to
gather up certificates and take care
of Them" in some places, but this
year the work, if it is being done at
all, is not being so openly prescott
ed. 1t may be that the voters have
learned how take care of their own
certificates.

POINTERS.

OOIneDOuy TeIldrh IldI yesterday
was shower day.
Probably the tobacco growers have
more to be thankful for in this sec
ton than almost anybody else.
Nov. oath will be the fifth an
niversary of the biggest rise in Little
River ever known.
The new bank will use three rooms
in the Phoenix building. The floors of
rooms two and three will be brought
to level with the corner room.
The electric railway franchise was
sold on the 10Th day of September.
The purchaser yet has nearly sixty
days to begin work.
And nowPembroke wants tobacco
warehouse. What the people of that
enterprising little city want they
generally get.
The popularity of the Turban hat
was clearly proven to the writer one
day this week. Eleven ladies out of
fourteen, passing a given point, and
wearing new hats, had selected the
Turban.
We are not yet prepared to give
out what that biggest thing that ever
struck the town will be. We are
still hoping. If it doesn't materialize
soon we will tell what it ought to be.
! Nobody complained of dust yes
terday. The circus people would
have rejoiced TO see it, as they had
nothing ba+fnud and ram the day
before at GAINESVILLE.
! The first of the Tabernacle enter
tainments will be given November
10th. Manager Mcpherson says the
people are subscribing literally, but
to give the attractions in view he will
have to sell more tickets than last
season.
Ringing Brothers circus surely is
the favorite in Hopkinsvile. AS an
evidence when the children were let
out of the public schools Tuesday
they were told that they need not
return until Thursday morning.
! The cashier of one of our local
banks says the Stuyvesant Fish was
in town last week and there wasn't
water enough in the river to hold
him. If he had been here Nov. oath
five years ago, he would have
had plenty of water to swim in.
The best evidence of the prosperity
of a town is the refusal Of property
owners to dispose of their real es-
tate in the business portion of the
town. The Elks would have pre-
ferred to locate their permanent
: home on Main street, but the pur-
chase of building on Main street,
at this time, is almost an impossi.
bility.
The production of THE Fortune
Teller" at the opera house Tuesday
night was entirely satisfactory anc
very pleasing and entertaining t.
5 the large and appreciative audience
a that witnessed it. The large crowC
D present, considering it was such ;
bad night, is evidence that our PEG
pie appreciate Manager Ennis eff

SECOND DISTRICTS
CONGRESSMAN

CONGRESSMAN
Inintroducing Congressman Stanley
before the tobacco growers meeting
at Greensboro, Hon. w. T. Ellis con
cluded with the statement that "Mr.
Stanley is the Second Districts pres
ent congressman, its next congress
man and its congressman for lifetime,
if he chooses" The sentiments ex-
pressed by Mr. Ellis reflect fully the
views of the Cleaner. About year
ago the Cleaner published an edito-
rial along the lines that the people Of
the Second district had always made
a mistake in changing their repre-
sentatives in congress so frequently.
For quite long time after the writer
had knowledge of politics of this dis
trict the people were largely of the
opinion that two terms were sufi-
cient for their congressman, and that
it was due that they should favor
some other gentleman with the honor.
The opinion has been steadily grow
ing, however, that while it might be
a nice thing to hand the position a.
round to favorite and no doubt
worthy sons, the best interests of
the people we're not being conserv-
ed by such a policy--tlat the people
owed duty to themselves to be as
well reprepresented in Congress
possible and the best way to secure
such result is TO keep their con-
gresham there so long as he mani
tests the desire and the ability to co
his duty and 20 grow in that position.
The people owe nothing to anybody
as a favor, but they owe it to them
selves to do what is best for them
selves and they have about concluded
that the best thing they can do for
themselves is to lengthen the tenure
of the service of their representative
in congress.
The writer confesses that at the
eutset Of Mr.. Stanley's career at
Henderson, he had serious doubt as
to the ultimate outcome. But Mr..
Stanley has developed more than any
man in this end of Kentucky during
the past few years. This develop
ment has been along lines that are
to be commended and admired. His
ability must be admitted by all. His
honesty and integrity as a public
servant cannot be questioned. He
is yet young in his manhood's prime,
with the broad expanse of great
future before him. So far in his
career he has more than justified the
expectations of his warmest friends
and has thoroughly satisfied those
who have reposed position of great
trust in his hands.
All that Stanley has to do is to SIT
steady in the saddle, be true to the
people as he has been, continue to
expand and broaden as hehas during
the past few years, and the people
of the Second district will have use
for him for many years to come.
