To whom 1t may concern
In regard to the purchase Of the
old dllapidated church property at
Richardson, Ky, by J. w. Hinkle
which property had been abandon
ed by the NJ. E. Church South for
some time previous to the pur-
chase, l wish to say there has been
some talk concerning the purchase
of this property which is calculated
to do Mr.. Hinkle an injury In his
candidacy for County Attorney,
have for some time been pastor Of
the Methodist Church at Richard
son, Ky. and have investigated
the sale of this property and find
upon investigation that Mr., Hinkle
came into possession of this prop
erty fair and legitimately. And he
has, since purchasing said property,
agreed to donate this old building to
the Church to be worked into a new
church building at this place.
Mr.. HinkIe has at all times mani
tested an interest in church work
since my acquaintance with him. His
father, r D. Hinkle, has also Of
fered to give a piece of land upon
which to build a church

results THAT REMAIN.
Are Appreciated by Louisa People.

Thousands who suffer from back
ache and kidney complaint have
tried one remedy after another,
finding only temporary benefit This
Is discouraging, but there Is one
special kidney medicine that cures
permanently and there is plenty Of
proof right here in Louisa,
Here is the testimony of one who
used Doan's Kidney Pills years ago,
and now states that the cure was
lasting.
Mrs. Margaret Holley. OF Louisa,
KY, says: II believe that am
fully prepared To back up my state
ment when say that Doan's Kid
ney pills are all they are claimed
to be As | am getting well along
in years, | never expect to be en-
tirely free from kidney trouble |,
however, can say that DOan's Kid
ney Pills have. given me great relief
from backache and other kidney dis
orders. My neighbors have also
taken this remedy, with the same
great success. am only too pleas
ed to recommend Doan's Kidney
Pills to other sufferers in Louisa. "
Mrs. Holley gave the above tes-
timonial in January. 1908, and con
firmed 1t on June 81, 1909, saying:

Big Majority in House.

Conservative estimates on the
complexion of the next House of
Representative give the Democrats
sixty-six, Republicans rs and six
districts in doubt. OF the latter,
the Democrats are reasonably sure
of capturing two, which bears out
the claim of many leading Demo-
Gratis that the Democrats will have
seventy members in the lower house
of the next General Assembly,
which would be fitting setting
for the new House chamber in the
new Capitol. :..H
OF the 100 representative dis
tricts, the Democrats have candi-
dates in eighty-six and the Repub-
leans in seventy-four.

UNFAIR TO HINKLE.
Malicious Distortion Of Facts Intend
ed to InjuTe Jas. ". HinklG.

Failing to find single thing in
the life of James W Hinkle that
could be truthfully told to his in-
jury, his desperate opponent has
built ridiculous story upon a very
slight foundation and is indus
triously circulating It. Mr.. Hinkle
bought some property that included
an abandoned church The ground
had originally been decided by Mr..
Preston to the church with a pro-
vision that il should revert to him
or his heirs when II ceased TO be
used for church purposes. Mr.. Hin
kle holds two deeds for the prop
erty. one from the Prestons and
one from a representative of the NJ
Il. Church South. He has all along
offered to donate the property to
church that would repair 1t and
put in into use,
The following statements should
satisfy anyone about the matter:
Richardson, Ky, Sept. II, 1903,
To whom il may concern
This is to certify that the deal
ings we had with J, w Hinkle when
we sold him our reversionary In
terest in the old dilapidated church
house at Richardson, Ky, which
had been abandoned by the NJ Is.
Church South some time previous
to the sale, was made known and
understood by each and all Of us
and was agreeable and satisfactory
to all of us.
Witness our hands and seals the
date above written.

James w. Hinkle has lived in
Lawrence county ever since he was
four years old and neither he nor
any of his family have ever before
asked the people OF this county for
an office. His opponent, Mr.. w. T.
Cain, is known as professional
office seeker. 1t is said he held
office in Martin county for eighteen
years continuously. He moved to
this county recently and it was re-
ported at that time that he would
be a candidate for County Attorney
at the first election. Whether it
was an announcement or a predic-
ton we do not know, but 1t turned
out to be true, just the same. Vot-
ers of Lawrence, give MIR. Cain a
little breathing spell, and time to
become naturalized. Eighteen years
of continuous service for the dear
people should entitle a man to a
rest, especially If there are other
able, self-sacrifiCing and we'll equip
ped men ready and willing to take
up the burden of public service for
a season.

IRISH INDUSTRIES.
Great and Steady Increase Is Shown
 In Business.

London, December u.-(Special)-Th slow but steady increase in the number of Irish industries Is the result of years of effort for industrial protection of Irish made goods against foreign competition and spurious limitations abroad, accord ing to the recent reports of several indus trial associations.
 Those industrial associations have been organized in several parts of Ireland for the encouragement of native manufactur- ing and for the patriotic support of home product.
 The principal leader in this movement is probably the Irish Industrial Develop ment association at Cork, which has reg istered an Irish trademark, adopted by many Irish manufacturers and serving as a guarantee of bona fide Irish produc- E tion. Thus such widely initiated goods as Irish crochet, linon and poplin can be protected to some extent against for eign commercials.
 The association also has in hand the prosecution of persons who represent alien goods as being made in Ireland.
 In order that the attention of the people may be called to home products shop keepers have been induced to display them prominently in their windows and on their counters.

reau of labor. the old saw 'it takes nine tailors to make man." is filled with transformation, for in reality, the bureau finds 1t takes 30 men of dif- ferent trades just to make a coat under the present system of shop manufacture. For the day when one tailor measured the customer, cut out the cloth and, with his apprentice, shaped 1t into finished and pressed garment has practically passed.
 Today all one tailor may do through his entire life Is to mark the place where the buttons are to be sewed on. Another man never marks the places for buttons; his speciality Is to mark buttonholes. A third man spends the long day in sewing on buttons; fourth sleeves do not make armholes; the arm hole men give place in shapers, and these last do not touch collars, which are a distinct speciality. Even the men who manipulate the tailors goose are divided into pressers of seams, edges, Things, sleeves and coast pressers The basters stick to one distinct speciality, of basting and a separate funtionary, the basting butler, undoes their work Even the coat strap is a separate province.
 So that when the coat Is finished 1t represents 39 distinct varieties of work by as many men. And when a man finally puts on the coat he is wear ing the product of 312 fingers and 7S thumbs, not counting the dlgits of those who sheared the sheep, wove the cloth, dyed 1t, finished 1t. shipped 1t and cut it. nor the ink-stained clerical hands which kept a book from sheep to wearer the coat was handled by at least 9000 fin gers

At the office of Quartermaster General Aleshire it was said that orange-colored clothing had proved to be cooler even than white.
 with his orange-colored underwear and his olive drab outer clothes" said Maj. J. H. Halsey, who has the matter in charge, "the American soldier may look strange to eyes used only to the federal blue. But it Is best. The orange keeps him cool, and the drab makes it impos- sible for an enemy to see him at a dis tance In fact, he passes from the view, of the eye in less than mile, on dusty background, whereas the old blue could be seen for miles. With the long range guns of today blue would be fatal color. However. it is retained in dress and some of the other uniforms.''

confined to make sure that he didn't get out and break things up.
 Then Gunda refused to eat, and Keeper Thumann got Dr. W. Reed Blair, the zoo veterinary, to come to the cage. The ele phant was tearing arounc ;..e cage at rate that npelled the veterinary to stay outside. By looking between the bars. however, Dr. Blair was able to see that there was a swelling on the right side of Gunda's jaw, presumably from a bad tooth.
 Thumann then summoned two other keepers, Dick Richards and Jim Bay reuther. They stayed on the outside of the cage while Thumann went In alone. Gunda has always been chummy with Thumann and they had a sort of cenver- sational race about the cage which finally ended in the keeper persuading Gunda to lie down Then with the help of the keep CTS outside chains were thrown over the beast and extra straps put over his head and finally he was pinned securely to the floor of the cage.
 Next his mouth was pried open-not a difficult matter, because with the pain in his jaw he was keeping it open about half the time anyhow-and wooden blocks were inserted to hold the jaws apart When this had been accomplished Thumann got an axe, sat down on the elephants head and Dr. Reed took a look inside.
 He found a great hole in the first molar on the right side. The tooth was in bad shape and before anything could be done to fill the cavity it had to be dug out and cleaned properly. When this was done medicine was put in to stop the pain, the hole was filled up with cement and pol ished off and everybody but Thumann left the cage while the latter undid the chains and straps and things and let Gunda up on his feet again. The elephant was bit unfriendly for few minutes, but soon calrned down, and last night was reported to have resumed his old normal disposi- tion-the kind he used to have two or three years ago.

 Orange-colored underwear with which the war department has been experiment. ing on soldiers in the Philippines. is to become part of the regular outfit of troops serving in the tropics. And this is not because of any desired artistic effect In- stead, 1t is to the recent discovery that this color breaks the rays of the sun.

And these signs shall follow , them that believe: In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, 1t shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they , shall recover. So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, He was received up into heaven, and sat on the , right hand of God.
