Heavy losses for Bank.

The losses of the Second Ma
tional Bank of Cincinnati on poor
loans and Investments will aegre-
gate $2,103, 105 and will wipe out
the capital stock, surplus and un-
divided profits of the institution,
according to the report made by
Special Examiner r. w. Good
hart to the Comptroller of the
Currency. Furthermore, an as
sessment will be levied on the
stockholders to restore the CAPT

every stakeholder will be requir
ed to pay into the bank an a.
mount equal to the par value of
his holdings. No depositor will
lose a cent.

Clay City Boys, Awake.

As we 20 to press we have re.
ceived Il letter from the Superin.
tendent, Mrs. X. ). Bohannon in
regard to the Boys Corn Club of
,his county, IN which she says
there are thirty bows in the vi.
entity Of Stanton enrolled in the
Club, and but one enrolled in
this end of the county. This
should not be. Come forward
nOys and hand this office your
name and later receive one gal
Ion of fine seed corn. Start in
early to make u scientific agri-
culturist. Show Pap that while
he has been growing an average
of twenty.four bushels of corn per
acre, you can make four times as
much. Boys in other portions of
the state and throughout the
whole South are doing this, then
why not the boys of Powell coun-
ty do the same. 1t must not be
lett for the Stanton boys to reap
all the honors, come forward
Clay City chaps and do some
thing to redeem this end of the
county. Get awake at once and
take hold. When all the honors
rave gone to the boys of the up
per end of the county don't sit
back and grumble when you
have done nothing Before an
other week we hope to see no
less than thirty boys from this
end of the county enrolled in the
boys corn club, and later hope to
see them win prize. 1t will
cost them nothing to try and may
mean great deal to them this
fall and in future years.
The age limit has been extend
ed to boys from ten to twenty
years instead of from ten to fif-
teen, as formerly. There is also
a chance to win a trip to Wash
ington where the boys will be
introduced to the President and
be shown all the sights of the ma.
TONS capitol and capital with no
expense to the boys.

Progressive is as Progressive does.

"Progressive is as Progressive
does" is the title of a little
phamplet recently mailed this
Office. The little book is design
ed to set forth the accomplish
ments of the Taft adminlstra-
ton. After Interestingly read.
ing it we noticed on the back of
the cover the initials, "F. B. r."
indicating that our +. b. Russell,
a former old Clay City boy is the
author. 1t is well gotten mp and
very persuasive arguments and
clippings are used to show where
the Colonel is and what all this
noise is about. Mr.. Russell was
Chairman OF the Republican
Campaign Committee in Louis
VILE last fall and made good.
He is splendid politician, and
a leader in state politics who
never seeks an office.

Another Whisky Decision.

Another decision affecting the
liquor business was handed down
Friday by the Court of Appeals,
which further construed the laws
relating to the sale of intOxicat.
ing liquor in territory which has
voted against the sale of LIQUOR.
The court says there is no law a.
gainst soliciting orders for wills
key in prohibition territory,
whether this is done secretly or
openly. In the case at bar Creme
Parker was indicted in Laurel
county for the sale of " whisky. 1t
was shown that the purchaser
sent a money order to Parker at
COvingtOn for the whisky and
that the liquor was shipped from
Cincinnati. The court says the
sale was made in CovingtOn,
where the money was paid, and
not in Laurel county. The court
further says thatlt cuts no figure
that the whisky was made and
stored in Kentucky, shipped to
Cincinnati and then reshipped to
Laurel county.
