Earl Ferguson, of near Paris, sold to
Thomas McClintock, of Millersburg, a
pair of fancy horse mules for $780,
They kicked the beam at an average of
ZOO pounds and were in fine condition
for hard work. The mules we're five
years old and were purchased by Mr..
Ferguson one year ago at the price of
S465. He made profit on his invest
ment of practically per cent, besides
had the use of the mules for year.
The 1911 wool crop of Kentucky will
be pooled owing to the success which
followed the pool of last year. The
amount pooled that year amounted to
200, coo pounds, and it is expected that
500, 600 pounds will be disposed of next
year. Senator E. X. Renaker was az
pointed to succeed Senator ]. w. New

the society, as Senator Newman was
compelled to resign on account of hav-

The conclusions were reached at a
meeting of the wool growers held last
week at the Phoenix Hotel.

NERVE is mighty good asset, but
Ben johnson is using his to extreme and
before long he will hang himself and
sink into political oblivion if he con-
tinues to take the rope as fast as he has
been in the past month. He is showing
every day that he is not the politician
he has been Cracked up" to be, in his
endeavors TO hand out to Senator Nc
Creary a long line of TRADE. Only by
the shrewdest move ever made in Ken
lucky politics, can he defeat the Sena-
tor, and even if he succeeds, and this
could be in a convention with lot of
crooked polite that have disrupted the
Democratic party in the state. he can
never be elected Governor Of this Com
monwealth. Most any Republican
could defeat him, and this is why the
Republican press of the state are more
than anxious for him to be the nominee.
1t is time now to select man than can
unite the scattered forces of Kentucky's
Democracy, and no man is more fitted
than Senator McCreary. In 1908 John
sons vote in his district was 24,344 with
Gaddie q, 246. In 1910 he was only able
to poll Is, 263 to Gaddie's IL, 652. If DIR.
Gaddie had received the same vote this
year that he did in 1908 he would have
defeated Johnson by about 5000 votes.
Where can johnson brag of running such
wonderful race for congress in Nov
emberg 1t looks big to those who read
of his carrying every county in his dis
trict, but they don't look further for the
facts and see, in comparing his race in
1908, that he really lost votes in nearly
every county. His candidacy for the
Democratic nomination for Governor of
Kentucky will disappear as the ''chaff
which the wind driveth away"

EDITOR J. r. Lemon of the Mayfield

Justice John NJ. Harlan, of the Supreme
Court, who has been on the bench for
thirty-three years and is now seventy
seven years of age and who is still active
and vigorous, can fill the position so
ably, Senator McCreary, who is five
years younger and unusually well pre-
served, is not too old for Governor, as
some people claim. There is not can

Needed for the Pattie A.
Clay was Raised.

With systematic soliciting army

As was stated in last weeks issue of
the Climax, this charitable institution
was in dire straits for funds with which
to operate, and the load of debt it was
carrying about to crush it to an early
suspension of operation. This fact was
made known to the public in general at
a meeting held last week, and it was de-
cided to organize in squads and canvass
the city thoroughly in the hope of rails
ing this money. Friday and Saturday
were the days appointed and by six
o'clock Saturday evening the work was
about completed, the finishing sums
coming in little later.
Never was there such systematic
soliciting practiced in Richmond and
not person escaped whom it was
thought might spare their mite for this
cause. Every house in Richmond and
suburbs was visited, and it can be said
to the credit of the common people,
that their gifts, although small, were in
every case extended willingly and in
many instances more than they were
able. The present Indebtedness will
now be wiped away and the institution
begin with a clean slate.
