OPPOSING CANDIDATES MEET

Circuit Judge ]. M. Benton, who is
seeking a denomination, and Hon. j.
Smith Hays, who is seeking that
same nomination, met in the court
house in this city Monday afternoon
and the temperature was sizzling hot
for time. Mr.. Hays had an ap-
pointment to address the "dear vot-
ers," and Judge Benton concluded
that he hadn't forgotten all his ora
torical tricks, and would do a little
speechifying himself. He got the
floor first, and without wasting time
on preiminaries sailed right in. 1t
was a debate of personalities. Each
speaker thought the other used the
truth with unprecedented economy
and didn't hesitate to say so. And
as man doesn't always commit SUI
icide In Kentucky when he initiates a
brother Kentuckian into the Ananias
Club, both of the distinguished gen.
tlemen are still alive and on the war
path.-Richmond Paragraph.

WHAT ABOUT WINCHESTER ?
Towns of the Blue Grass Are Selling
Thousands of Christmas
Stamps.

LEXINGTON, KY, Dec. 16.-The
public is rapidly getting acquainted
with the Christmas stamp, and al
ready is beginning to have real
fondness for it because of its CHEEKY
usefulness. Some business houses
are putting it on all their letters, the
press of the whole United States is
giving it aid without stint, and pri-
vate individuals everywhere are adj
vertising it among their friends
whenever possible.
Miss Mary Hollor, who has been
placed in charge of the stamp bu-
reau at Kaufman and Straus' store,
yesterday afternoon sold 40 stamps
between the hours of 2:3O and 5 80
o'clock. Five gentlemen purchased
% of each while another purchased
50.
Interest in the stamp is not confn-
ed to Lexington, however. A few
days ago Mt. Sterling Association
was not sure it could sell the 500
stamps asked for. but yesterday sent
a hurry order for 1900 more. Paris
is thus far the banner town, has al
ready gotten $500 stamps, and re-
ports a steady increase in interest.
Lancaster has just gotten 1000, and
Beattyville yesterday doubled its
original order. Danville is hardly
aroused to the situation as yet, but
has sent a second order for 500,
while from every direction the local
association is getting reports that
the public is becoming awakened and
is asking for facts about the stamp.

MOUNTAIN CONVENTION.

The great meeting in Jackson with
the subsequent call for convention
of the mountain counties to meet in
that city in May, 1909, to consider
the best means Of preserving law
and order and of convincing capt.
tai that it will find protection In
Eastern Kentucky, is another step
toward the emancipation OF the
mountains.
The overthrow of Hargis and his
adherents by the Hogbacks evidenc-
ed the first real awakening in Breath
lit county. The shock of the subse-
quent bloody death of the Judge at
the hands of his son, seems to have
aroused the citizens Of that county
as never before.
With the coming convention, the
mountain people will have it in their
own hands to take measures to up
hold the hands of the duly consttut-
ed authorities in the enforcement of
law and order and can give to the
outside world signal evidence that
they want foreign capital and that
they propose to protect the investor.
The mountain people are of as
good blood as any in Kentucky. They
are the direct descendants of the
original Anglo Saxons and Hugue-
nots who settled the colonies. The
lack of means of communication and
Of education have retarded their ad-
vance. But they are beginning to
realize their disadvantages; they
know that the drawbacks to their de-
velopment and progress have been
lack of transportation facilities, of
educational advantages and of cap
ital to open up and develop their
natural resources.
With this realization, the future
advance of the mountains is assur-
ed. All they needed was the awak-
ening. We look for the next decade
to make a most wonderful develop
ment in all Eastern Kentucky. And
with this development will come Win
chester's chance. If our citizens
prove equal to the opportunities of
fered we will all see in that time a
"Greater Winchester"

And another interesting fact is the
new Importance of the Tenth Con-
gressional District. Republicans and
Democrats alike seem to recognize
the abilities of Congressman Lang
ley. He has the ear of Congress, of
President Roosevelt and President
elect Taft. For years past the Ken
lucky delegation to the House with
one or tive notable exceptions has
been a nonentity In Congress. 1t is
refreshing to have man Of influence
in Congress and particularly from
our end of Kentucky.

A NEW INFLUENCE.

The letters which The News has
published from Mr.. r. R. Perry while
a delegate from Kentucky to the
Southern Commercial Congress at
Washington besides being full of in
teresting personal chat, are full of
evidences of the newly awakening
South. This section is again press
ing forward to take its old place in
national affairs. We remember how
Henry w. Grady in a speech but a
few years since in New York on "The
New South" created furore through
the Northern press. He was one of
the advance guards of the new
South, a John the Baptist telling
Lef the things to come.

ADJUSTMENTS.

Without question the finest thing the Or
pheum Stock company has presented as a
company is the new play, THE Greatest
of These" which had its trial last even
ing. Not only of the play itself is this
true, but of the actors, who to the least
one did far better than in any previous
bill.
The play is three-act drama written
by Miss Georgia Earle, who incidentally
is Mrs. Joseph Greene. and Fanny Can
non- 1t is filled with clever lines and
its dramatic situations are numerous.
There is not one dull minute in it, and
yet it is a serious little study in the hui
man emotions which takes hold of the
audience in A very forceful way. 1t is
admirably staged and the whole produc-
ton is the work of Mr.. Greene, whose
careful study of the situation has made
of this first presentation a really finely
presented play.
The story is not a new one In plot
the old one rather of a man who fails to
see that young and pretty wife needs
more than the mere knowledge of being
a wife to keep her contented. 1t is pre-
scented in twofold wise in the play-the
first as example of how fair-minded
a man can be when he's not the fellow
concerned. and the second to bring the
matter home. Lee Baker had the part

and she carried it off splendidly. Miss
Sayres in her favorite role, that of a

FOR A MUNICIPAL PLANT
Council Levies 10-Mill Tax for Con-
struction of Waterworks
system.

Municipal ownership OF the waterworks
system advanced another step last night,
when the council authorized the levying
or d lO-mill tax for the construction of
waterwcrks system. This was incor-
porated in a resolution levying taxes for
1905
For some time the council. together with
the mayor. has been laboring with the
WaterWorks question An offer has been
made by the Ogden Waterworks COM
pany to let the city take over its fran
chise and system. and this matter is
now under consideration. Should this be
done. the supply of water in the South
Fork canyon, recently acquired by the
city. will be connected and made a part
OF the city system. The proposition to
purchase the present plant is favored by
number of councilmen. the only ques-
ton being whether or not the city can
afford to pay the price asked and assume
the bonded Indebtedness of the concern
1t is argued that the city could under
take all this expense and that the reve-
nue. would be sufficient to pay off the
debt in few years time. The voting
of the lO-mill levy is taken to indicate
that more definite action will be taken
at once. in order that the deal may be
completed at an early date
The resolution referred to also included
the levying of the following taxes for
1908:
Contingent expense. mills.
improvements on streets and sidewalks
mills.
Repairs and construction of sewers and
drains. = mill.
Maintaining public library. 3 mill.
Councilman HumphriS suggested that
the price per meal for feeding city pris-
oners be increased from 10 TO 1872 cents.
The matter was referred to the police
committee.
Bids for building concrete bridge
across the North Ogden canal were
opened. The bid of the Wheelwright
CONSTRUCTION company was sf4S. that of
William Doyle $3.50. They were referred
to the city engineer.

The Alaska Refrigerator Gives Evil
dence of Great superiority-Dem-
onstration at II. Dinwoodey Furni-
turc COMPANY.

Ever since the announcement was
made that the Dinwoodey Furniture
company would give an exhibition of
the Representing quality of the Alaska
Refrigerator the public has been await
ing anxiously the results of the ice
melting contest
Ordinarily the housewife counts OF
having her ice-chest filled every two
or three days: consequently there was
marked surprise on the part of refrig-
orator users when 1t was announced in
Sundays Herald that the ice had last
ed 106 hours and 80 minutes. Guesses
had been submitted on the proba BILE
time of the ice-melting, but very few,
however, expected that the ice would
last longer than four days at least.
The nearest guesses We're made by
Mrs. j. r. Patience. 3S l street. and
Mrs. Bessie Dunn, 603 Utah Savings
& Trust bldg, prize being a $40 AlaskI
Refrigerator. Four other prizes were
offered. each of which is a credit on
the purchase of an Alaska Refriger-
ator.
A remarkable feature of the demon
stration was that during the whole per-
iod, a temperature of over 90 degrees
was maintained in the window in which
the display was made.
