yer, who was formerly District Judge,
One night Thomas found himself in a
shabby little town which had no no.
tel. Desiring to stay all night he ask
ed a lounger in front of a grocery
store where he might find accommoda-
tions. The lounger went inside of the
store, which was run by an Indian.
When informed that there was a man
outside who wanted a place to spend
the night, the Indian asked:
who is the fellow?"
Judge Thomas" was the reply.
"Well, if that's the fellow, he had
better pay me what he owes me be-
fore asking me for any favors."
"How is that?" queried the lounger.
'Is he in debt to your"
Eyes" replied the Indian. when
he was Judge in Muskogee I was
brought before him for selling liquor.
I was convicted, and in sentencing me
he said, will give you sixty days in
jail and $780, I got the sixty days all

The Adair County news., 1906-03-14
WED, MARCH IL, 1906.

The bill introduced in the leg.
islature to place Adair county in
the Fourth Congressional district
was brought to the front one day
last week and was killed by the
skillful tactics of lacking on
amendments, making it impossi-
BILE of passage. The truth of the
whole matter is that the repre-
sentatives from the Third district
bent on giving Butler to the
Fourth. knocked us out by press
ing their claim and doing so when
no hope of carrying their point
could be seen or entertained.
The Fourth was willing to
add Adair and the failure of
passage is not due to the action
of it's representatives. The truth
is that Hon. ]. M. Mitchell, rep
resentative from Green and Tay-
Tor, stood for the bill with all the
firmness and fidelity that enters
the makeup of an honest, cour-
ageous man, and furthermore he
was truely and honestly repre-
senting his counties in this mat
ter. The Democrats of Adair are
not unmindful or unappreciative
of Mr.. Mitchell's position, and in
the future we trust that we can
have an opportunity to show him,
in a more substantial way, the
true appreciation of Adair county
Democrats for the honest and
faithful efforts to help us out
and aid us in so doing. AS it is,
we are left in the Eleventh to
fight as we have in the past with
out having a ray Of hope. Many
Of Adair county Democrats were
willing to be placed anywhere
just to getout of the Eleventh, but
so far as we are concerned it
makes but little difference wheth-
er we were left in our present
district or switched on to the
Third, for the bulk of political
aspirants of that district has nc
hrotherly feeling for our county.
Their action only justifes po-
litical scheme to swap Butler for
Adair and dispose of 300 Repub-
lican majority in the deal. The
News will still do its duty as it
sees it, regardless of environ
ment, for our county, Southern
Kentucky and Democratic prlnci-
PIES. Rightfully, we should be
placed in the Fourth, but the
chance at psesent has gone glim-
mering.
