wife of Robert Lincoln, ex-Secretary
of War, and now leading lawyer
and capitalist of Chicago.
Some politicians had called on
President Lincoln to urge the APP
pointment of some of their friends
to positions in a certain department.
By way of refusal the President told
the following story:
Gentlemen, the conditions in that
department put me in mind of time
that young friend and myself tried
to court the two daughters of pep
perry widow living near our home.
The old lady kept lot of hounds.
I'VE had not been in the house
long before one of the hounds came
into the room and lay down by the
fire. In a little while another one
came to the door. He didn't get in,
for the old lady gave him a kick, say
ing:
"'Get out of here. There's too
many dogs in here now!'
I'VE concluded to court some 9TH
err girls"
The Hartford republican. (Hartford, Ky.) 18??-1926, 1905-01-27
The Editors Gentleman.

The question always comes up:
What is a gentleman? Some say he
is a man with a smooth tongue. But
men connected with the newspaper
trade have a canon of their own.
"Mr. Editor" said a patron one
day, chow is it you never call on me
to pay for your paper?"
oh" said the man of types, I'VE
never ask gentleman for money"
Indeed" the patron replied.
How do you manage to get along
when they don't pay?"
Why" said Mr.. Editor, after a
certain time we conclude he is not a
gentleman, and we ask him."
The Hartford republican. (Hartford, Ky.) 18??-1926, 1905-01-27

came out in the open and said he
would not take the Honor.

Washington and serve. l know of

In the last part of this sentence
Cannon touched the keynote of his
life. He wants and must have ac-
ton. He has always had it, and al
ways will as long as hel lives. 1t is
the reason that at SO years of age
he is as hale and hearty and clipper
as man of thirty generally is.
He walks to the Capitol nearly every
day from his home, more than two
miles away, and walks with an elias
tic step which gives no sign of age.
He can attend a banquet at night
and be up at 6 the next morning,
without showing the least sign of
fatigue.
Mr.. Cannon has been elected for
another term. He will be Speaker
as long as he remains in the House
and the Republicans are in the ma
jority. 1t would be poor policy for
any member to oppose him.

Not long since the choir in one of
the fashionable churches of the

anthem-one with many frills and
furbelows. The good minister sat
patiently through it, but when the

the amusement of both congregation

ly earnest tones, saying, 20 Lord

The LIQUOR Situation in lone.

Our contemporary, the lone Echo,
complains because the officers of the
county and that particular township
make no effort to close the saloons
IN lone under the law prohibiting the
sale of liquor within two miles of any
state reformatory and other state
institutions. The law has passed
muster of the supreme court, and
been declared constitutional, but the
saloons are running just the same,
and no steps are being taken to pre-
vent this breach of the law. Our
contemporary must recognize the fact
that as far as the sheritf's office is
concerned, the situation is peculiar
The sheriff is also tax collector and
license collector. He issues liquor
licesnes to all parties who have
obtained permit from the board of
supervisors to conduct such business.
10 do this is as much a part of his
duty as any other obligation imposed
upon him as an officer. The super
visors have granted permits to the
saloon men of lone. They did SO
after full hearing pro and con. 1he
license collector has issued the usual
licenses to them. We cannot see how
he could do otherwise under the cir
cumstances. 1t would certainly be
curious condition of affairs, after
thus issuing the official sanction,
based on the action of the supervis.
ors, for him, on his own motion, tC
go back on his own act as license
collector, by turning round and
arresting them for carrying on ar
unlawful business. 1t is a little tt
much to expect any official tc
stuItify himself in that fashion.
With the township officers and the
citizens of the township, the case is
different. There is nothing to pre-
vent them from taking steps to en-
force this particular law if they
choose to do so.
