Many people throughout this section
thought that 'Uncle" 10 B. Alexander,
who was a leading hotel man in Louis
vile for quarter of century, was
dead. until last week. His picture ap-
peared in the Courier-Journal with a
column write up, stating that he was
with the Little Sisters of the Poor and
was in want. Mayor Head stated that
he would look after his comfort. Mr.
Alexander was born and reared at
Burksville, and at one time was in
comfortable circumstances. A REMIT
ance from this town for his benefit was
sent to the Mayor of Louisville the day
after the article appeared in the Cour-
ier-Journal If friends over the State
will do likewise, they would not miss
the donations and an old man and friend
they knew in his palmy days would be
relieved. Cast thy bread upon the
waters and after many days it will re-
turn unto thee

1t is scarcely worth while to speak of
the bad condition of the public high
ways. When weeks of good weather
comes we urge the working of the
roads, but our notices are not needed,
and when bad weather makes its ap-
pearance they can not be worked, and
thus you have it. Like the Arkansas
Traveller who had no roof on his house.
When it was raining he could not cover
it and when it was dry weather it did
not need it.

WOULD ORGANIZE
GRANGE
f. VI. SMITH, STATE LECTURER,
HERE FOR THE PURPOSE OF
LOCAL AUXILIARY.

E. NJ. Smith, lecturer for the state
grange, is in the city today, coming
here from Seattle an dis here for
the purpose of interesting the local
growers in the formation of an auxil-
larry to the state organization. In
brief the purpose and objects of the
state grange as outlined by Mr. Smith
are as follows:
I'VE want to make the local
grange rural club for the discussion
of all questions which would make
its members more intelligent farm
ers and more intelligent citizens. The
National Grange as an organization
keeps a lobby at Washington look
ing after al Legislation in the inter
est of the farmer. Their program
for this year consists of the secur-
ing of postal savings bank and par
cells post, the defeat of the ship sub
sidy bill and the central bank and
the election of United States senators
by direct vote of the people ana the
passage of the Davis bill securing
larger appropriations for teaching
agriculture in the schools. In the
state we favor placing educational
and charitable institutions on a fair
er basis so as to take our education
al institutions, including our normal
schools out of politics, and uniting
the farmers on legislative program.
Theg range also is engaged in a num-
Der of cooperative enterprises and the
work in this respect has been very
encouraging in the last year. We
now have about $1,000 members in
the state and this is the only section
of the state that today remains un-
organized"
