The Louisville Times of Tuesday, the
18th inst, gives the following account
of trial which came up before Judge
Walter Evans:
A curious case growing out of po-
litical feud in Metcalfe county came ut
in the United States Court this morn.
ing, when r. E. McCandless, busi-
ness man of Edmonton, was tried fol-
violating the postal laws.
McCandless was accused by the Gov.
eminent of sending an Objectionable
postal card to political rival The
card said:
Here's to Henry Vanzant,
Who made little trade,
And ne got everything that Bruce Tay,
lor
Had for. many days made
Upon the credit of Taylor and Free,
At the seelbach Hotel did thugs eat
And wound up the Republican party
In one HI of a defeat"
McCandless declared he did not send
the card. A number of the same kind
were sent through the same post office.
The jury found the accused man not
guilty. Judge Evans remarked: LET
him be discharged, with the suggestion
that he has been very kindly treated
in this case"

Some two or three weeks ago and ad-
vertisement for lost dog was placed
in The News and last week the pup was
delivered sound and alright. He show.
ed that he had suffered little from his
wonderings but his appetite is fine and
soon DR.. R. Y. Hindman will have him in
shape for the chase. This is the second
dog the Doctor lost, the second lad"
placed and the goods delivered both
times. 1t is testimony that an ad in
in the News brings results, if merits
back the proposition.

Jamestown.

There is one thing very noticeable
about the Capital of Russell. 1t is not
as large as some of her neighboring
towns, but it is a place where peace
reigns supreme. It's inhabitants re-
mind so-journer of one big family.
Every body is on equality and If fam
inc should come and there were not
but one meal chest and one flour
bin IN the town, they. owned by one
person, every body in the community
would go to them and welcome as long
as bread stuff lasted. Style has never
run any body crazy in jamestown. Her
people prefer good, comfortable clothes,
money to gingle in their pockets, to
fine raiment. Why a lady in James
town would not think of wearing thir-
ty dollar hat, though there are plenty
who could afford to do so if they did
not think the money could be more ju-
Ideally expended.
The people not only in Jamestown,
but throughout Russell county, are
prosperous, though it seems they are
so unpretentious that they make an eff
fort to try and keep the outside world
from knowing how contentedly they
are getting along.
Monday was the opening of circuit
court and all sections of the county
were representative we'll to-do man
and the poor man were in town, and
the writer ventures the assertion that
there was not one person in the entire
crowd but had some money in his pock-
ct, consequently the business men of
the town enjoyed fine trade.
