Better Freight Rates
VIII Enable Stanford to Become
Leading Cattle Market.

A. T. Nunnelley returned Wednesday
from Louisville. where he spent sever
al days comforting with the l.. & N. Of
ficials regarding freight rates on cattle.
Stanford Is becoming one of the larg-
est cattle markets in the State. Mr..
Nunnelley has recently received ship
ments from down in Tennessee; a num-
Der of herds have come to his large
stock yards from as far away as Rus
sell and Whitley counties and other
sections not adjacent to Stanford. An
average of over 500 cattle are handled
here every court day. while the bust
ness in the interim has grown to large
proportions.
With more equitable rates from the
railroads on freight shipments Of cat.
tie, Mr.. Nunnelley believes that Stan
ford will soon take the lead in all this
part of the State as a cattle market.
Buyers are focking here from all over
the South and Eastern houses have
their representatives on hand. The
central location of the city and its ease
of access makes it especially favora-
BILE for doing the largest business in
cattle in this part of the State.

COMMERCIAL CLUB
MAY Be ORGANIZED
Young Business And Professional
Men Want to Help Boost
Stanford.

A number Of the younger men Of
Stanford. both business and profession
al men. are seriously discussing the or.
ganization Of a commercial club here TO
advertise both Stanford and Lincoln
county, also, better to the State
and country. The matter has been
quietly talked of for several days and
has now reached point where a call
will probably be issued, signed by a
number Of active young men for a
mass meeting Of all those who are will
ing to join in concerted effort to
boost the old town and community in an
organized way.
Commercial clubs are doing good work
in number of smaller cities in Ken
lucky and those who have watched
some Of the results they have ATTAINED
say that there is no valid reason that
can be given why Stanford should not
have one to push forward to the front
Of the procession.
There are a number of good things
and much needed improvements, which
could undoubtedly be secured by con-
certed effort. said a well-known bus
mess man to the INTERIOR JOURNAL. All
we need is for some of the young fell
lows who have energy and determine
ton to go to the front in the matter.
There's no use going after things too
big at the start. Aim at something
that can be attained; go to work for
Improvement Of sanitary conditions in
the city. for better sewerage system,
for a new depot, or for better streets.
Every business man in town ought to
feel a personal interest in such move.
ment and be willing to help it all he
can"
IL has been suggested that one Of the
first things that a commercial club
could find to do would be to arrange
suitable and appropriate program for
dedicatory ceremonies for the new court
house An orator of note could easily
be secured to make the address of died.
ication. The details of making such
arrangements would naturally fall upon
a commercial club. and it has been sug-
gested that the affair could be made
a noteworthy event in the history of
city and county with a little boosting

BIG DAMAGE SUITS
FILED in CIRCUIT COURT
Much New Litigation Placed On
Docket For The May Term
OF Court Here.

Several large size damage suits have
been filed in the Lincoln circuit court
for trial at the May term. One Of the
most interesting cases is the SUIT of
General II. Floyd against Cleveland and
Crit Floyd, asking damages in the sum
OF $1,000. The plaintiff to the action
IS an uncle to the two defendants. He
alleges in his petition, filed by his at
torney, George ID. Florence, that he
was set upon and attacked by his neph-
ews. who welded fence rail with such
effect that his left arm was broken in
three places. Trouble is said to have
been started in the family over
boundary fence. All the parties to the
suit live in the Waynesburg section of
the county.
Garland Singleton has filed suit
against the Louisville Tin and Stove Co.
for 81. 900 damages for malicious prose-
cution and attachment. The &C.
ton grows out of an attachment the
defendants took out against a stock of
goods Mr.. Singleton had while in busi-
ness In this city. the attachment being
dismissed in court. and it is alleged to
have been shown that there were no
grounds whatsoever for the legal pro-
ceedings instituted by the defendants
against Mr.. Singleton. Attorney Flor
ence represents the plaintiff.
The $1,000 damage suit of Polk
Barnes against VIM Monks, of the
Crab Orchard section, was compromis-
ed out of court for 500. The damage
suit was originally brought for alleged
assault and shooting last December, at
Crab Orchard.
John Baugh, Jr., and his father. Doc
Baugh, of Hustonville, are unable to
decide which is the owner of nine head
of horses, and the young man has filed
suit in court to determine the owner
ship. Both assert claims to the AMI
mails and it is expected that much evil
dence will be adduced to determine the
correct title to the equines.
After five years separation John
Carrolton, of the Mckinney neighbor-
hood. asks legal divorce from his wife,
Sallie Carrollton. Newt Jones. a COL
ored man of Hustonville. also filed suit
for divorce from his wife. Lucy p.
