These lines are written in the
interest Of no particular candid
ate, and it remains TO be seen
whom the two great political
parties will offer 10 the voters
for their support. Will he be- an
educator of recognised ability.
selected for his fitness for the
place. or will he be some TWO by
four who gets on the slate, IN
the division of the offices which
the politicians often make.
Also the Senate cf Kentucky
must undergo a change before
the common schools may expect
much recognition. and happily
one half of it will be replaced
this fall. and we sincerity trust
that voters make no mistake.
The old Senate could not or
would not change a line in the
Sullivan law. nor would they
accept any measure coming from
the people through the House Of
Representatives for the relief of
the common schools. A House
bill meeting the demands of the
people. and giving every child in
the state an equal chance for an
education was passed and sent
over TO the Senate where it was
promptly pigeonholed. and the
man who was running the bus
mess over there, refused to call il
up for consideration even when
more than two thirds Of the Sem
ators signed a written request
for its passage.
The big chiefs of the Senate
were too busy defeating the Co.
Unit bill to give five minutes
time for the passage of law so
vital to the interests of the
seven thousand school children of
the state.
Now about Good Roads: We
will have some thing to say next

TOBACCO TIDINGS.
BY X. F. WHEELER.
some REASONS why
Fs ners Should Pool Their Tobac-
co With The Stemming Dis
ifict Tobacco Association.

Because it was organized at a
time farmers were selling their
tobacco at prices too low for the
tie nants to live by raising it, anC
the land owners could not afford
to have it raised on his land nol
could the map, who worked his
own land get pay for his work.
Because these conditions were
soon changed by farmers pooling
their tobacco with the Stemming
Association, to prices that were
profitable, and as there was no
other association or union until
after the advance had come-let
us give the credit the Stemming
District for the advance.
Because the Association is well
known to the tobacco markets of
the world, and has a reputation
for fair dealing with them.
Because it operates in terri
tory that raises a type of tobac-
CO that is famous at home and
across the waters; one that is
now in demand, and will always
be.
Because it has good financial
backing, and is in a position to
set a price and hold out for it.
Because it has for its general
manager, a tobacco man, who
has had some thirty five years
experience, handling and selling
tobacco, who is posted on tobac-
co markets and everything else
that effects the prices Of tobacco.
Because it has sold the farm
ers' tobacco for more money
than any other association ever
has for the same kind of tobacco;
saying a great deal, but, if any
other association has sold its
pool for s cents per pound or

NARROW ESCAPE
L. E. Cilber, Gets Caught In Flood
Near Dixon, Saturday

Just after the big rain, Satur-
day, DR.. L. E. Gilbert, of Van
dersburg, in trying to go from
Dixon to G. w. Grants, near
here, came very near getting
drowned near the railroad cross
ing, near the home of Mrs. Sal
lie Mooney. At the point allud-
ed to the public road crosses a
branch, which following one of
the biggest rains this country
has ever had, had been transpos-
ed into a mighty river. The DR..
undertook to cross the stream
but soon found it was "uncross-
able" and that his horse was
swimming, his buggy clear of
the earth, and that he must seek
escape. He lunged into the wat
er and managed to reach land
with no further injury than a
good fright and a thorough wet
ting. The horse and buggy came
out alright, also, and with the
exception of the loss of a few
little articles which were in the
buggy, there was no damage.

ROAD and SCHOOL
LEGISLATION IN PROSPECT

Frances, KY, May 9.--Dear
Editor: | am almost daily in re-
cept of inquiries regarding the
outlook for School and Road leg
islation at the next meeting of
the General Assembly, and
take this method of giving my
views as to the likelihood of re-
lief along these lines.
First as to school reforms: That
depends largely upon whom the
people place at the head of the
schools of the state, in the office
of superintendent of Public In
suction. at the coming Novem-
Der election. His suggestions
are taken by the average legis-
lator to be a panacea for educat-
ional ills, and often, too often,
they scurry back and forth at
his nod and beck only too glad to
carry out his behests. If you e.
lect an educational crank to that
important Office, you may expect
conditions to remain topsy turvy;
on the other hand if you elect a
man from the people who is con-
siderate, practical and most es'
pecially not fad hunter, but can
see that only educational progress
can be made by recognizing the
rural schools as the only true
foundation upon which a perma-
nent educational edifice may be

port of the common schools prop

same type of tobacco.

4. More than three fourths
of the farmers of the district
pool their tobacco with this AS
ISOLATION and the remainder sell
independent, or pool in some
other organization.
The object of the Association
is to get all of the tobacco known
as the stemming or English type.
in one organization, and have
only one seller to meet, on equal
terms. the one buyer. of our
tobaccos. As stated above we
have more than three fourths of
this tobacco in the Association
SO that the remaining tobacco
that is sold independent. or pool
ed in some other organization,
is sold in competition to Associa-
ton tobacco. and has a tendency
to depreciate the price. In 9th
err words if you pool with the
Association you help tor raise the
price. If you sell independent,
or pool in some other organiza-
tion you help TO lower it by caus-
ing competition in the sale of
your product, to the advantage
Of the buyer.

graded any farmers tobacco at
10 cents per pound, | mean for

name.
Because it has always dealt
fairly with its members, and the
people to whom it sold their to-
bacco, and has the confidence of
all business enterprises and they
are as a rule, friendly to it as
well as the press and profession
al men.
Because it has accomplished
all its work by methods that are
honorable and lawful; no barns
burned; plant beds scraped; or
unbelievers thrashed by it.
Because there is not a more
up-to-date business concern in
the State. The officers can ac-
count for every penny paid into
it, or out By it, and are willing
at all times to show up" to its
members.
Because it has in the past few
years wrenched from the greedy
buyers thousands of dollars and
placed them in the pockets of
the tobacco grower, who was
the rightful owner of them
These thousands have found
their way from the farmer into
every avenue of business, every
man, woman and child in the
five counties have been benefited
by it.
Because if this Association
lives, it must have the patron
age Of the tobacco grower. All
the schemes that could be de-
vised, and all the falsehoods that
could be thought of, are at work
to ruin the organization, and
here are the reasons: - jealousy
on the part of some; ignorance
on the part others; and greed on
the part of the remainder.
Will the tobacco growers al
low these three factors to rule
or will they be their own mas
tiers and be ruled by their better
judgement and rally to the sup
port of the Association that
brought tobacco up and the only
one that can hold it up. Con-
slider your own welfare, and
