Change Of Officers AT National Bank OF
Lancaster.

At meeting of the directors of the
National Bank of Lancaster held in
their rooms on the 9th inst. the
resignation of Mr.. ]. F. Robinson,
Jr., as Assistant Cashier of that
institution was accepted, and Mr.. R.
T. Embry who has long served as the
efficient book keeper was selected to
succeed him. Mr.. j. Lewis Gill who
has been engaged as a supernumerary

familiar with every detail of the bust
ness was chosen to succeed Mr.. Embry
1t is with sincere regret that both
the officers and patrons of this sterling
institution lose Mr.. Robinson who has
been associated with the institution for
many years and was one of the most
efficient young bankers in Central Ken
lucky. However, the new officers are
thoroughly equipped to take up and
carry on the work of the bank to the
entire satisfaction of it's patrons and
the public.
Mr.. Robinson will give his entire at
tention to his farm and stock business
and will probably accompany his broth

Of The Byantsville Neighborhood
Dies AT His Home In Lexing-

Mr.. Jack Dunn until few years one
of the most prominent and respected
citizens of Garrard county, and who
lived near Bryantsville, died last Fri
day at his home in Lexington and his
remains were brought here on Satur-
day by Auto hearse, and after a beau
tiful prayer and short funeral cere-
monies by Rev. Mark Coils, who &C
companied the remains here, were
inferred in the Lancaster cemetery.
He is survived by his wife, who was

Dunn of Danville and Messrs Ben and
Thomas Dunn of Bryantsville and one
sister Mrs. Alice Adams of Dallas Tex.
Mr.. Dunn until a few years ago,
when because of failing health he sold
his farm and removed to Lexington,
lived near Bryantsville and was one of
the most highly respected citizens in
the entire county. He was devout
member of the Christian church, an
earnest christian gentleman, a. good
friend and neighbor and an exemplary
citizen. While a resident of this coun-
ty MIR. Dunn was ever among the fore

Miller Distillery Property Sold.

Messrs Richard Burton, Banks Hudr
son and w. R. Cook have sold the old
pilgrimage Distillery' property, of
which they were the joint owners, to
Messrs Ed and Ben Hughes for $4,000.
The Hughes Bros. already own a tract
of land adjoining the still house proper
ty and the latter which contains about
twenty acres added to their other
property will give them one of the
most desirable small farms in the
county. We understand that the build
ings will be dismantled for the lumber
which they contain, with the exception
of the brick distillery proper, which
will be remodeled into residence. A
clause in the deed from the owners of
the property at the time it was last
utilized as dlstillery binds them and
their assigns never to again manufac-
ture whisky upon the property. The
land is highly productive, lies well and
contains a lake of splendid water,
which renders it very desirable piece
of property for farming purposes. and
it could well be utilized as a site for
some kind of a manufacturing plant as
it lies alongside the railroad just out
side the city limits and connection by
switch is already made to the l. & N
track. The sale was negotiated through
Messrs Hughes & Swinebroad the real
estate agents.

We are publishing is our local col
ums this week cupy of circular is
sued by the various candidates, who
are now councilmen, just previous to
the election in November 1911. In
that circular over their various sigma
lures these gentlemen set forth IN
unmistakable terms their attitude upon
the various questions which were at
that time expected to come before the
council. This circular it is true was
not signed by the entire council, the
name of one at that time candidate,
and who was elected with the others,
we refer to Capt. Herndon, was not
signed to this circular; however five,
working majority, sufficient to carry
out any measure they might wish to
pass, DID sign it, and the eyes OF the
public are now focused upon that five,
it is up to them, they are expected to
make good these prediction vows.
The council is guilty of the sin of omis-
sion. not that of commission, they have
simply been dilatory about taking up
this telephone and other matters which
are burning subjects with the citizens
and taxpayers who elected them, and
pushing them to a successful finish.
We firmly believe that the gentlemen
who compose the city council, one and
all are fair minded, upright gentlemen
and have the welfare of the community
at heart, and they now have splendid
opportunity to show that this is fact.
Already complications have arisen be-
cause of their dilatory tactics in the
telephone matter, and some action is
imperative, already one, and soon there
will be other companies knocking a
our doors and demanding entrance.
Let us have no more of this delay
no more breaking of council qnorum'
to avoid action, get together ant
formulate some plan of action ant
carry it out at your next meeting
and satisfy your constituents ant
thereby stop this clamor, and JUS
clamor we must confess, for some &C
ton upon the part of the City Council
of The City of Lancaster.

Don't Let 1t Happen Again.

The citizens of Lancaster who are
constantly being urged by the ministers
of the city to attend church now have
one on the ministers, they faced on
last Sunday the novel situation of no
preaching in the city to attend, and
doubtless each and everyone of the de-
linquents will make much of this op-
portunity and tell their ministers that
they were unable to attend worship be-
cause there was none for them to at
tend. This state of affairs was brought
about by ED. finder being away on
his vacation, Bro. Bush away holding a
protracted meeting, Rev. Brown filling
his regular appointment at Junction
City, that being his off day in Lancas-
ter, and all depending on DIR. Pearce to
hold Union Service, and that gentle
man was taken i'll at the last moment
and was unable to fill his appointment.

man" called on Governor McCreary
yesterday. He is Joseph Mount, of
Garrard, who wore Wilson Badge to
the Democratic platform convention at
Louisville in June, 1911. He wore it
on that occasion to see how many W.T.
son men he could Flush" in the con-
vention, and satisfied himself that
Wilson sentiment was strong. He
sent the badge to Gov. Wilson, and
learned that he was the first man in
Kentucky TO subscribe to the Wilson
campaign fund. He helped carry Gar
rard county for Wilson; and went to
the State convention as a Wilson dele
gate. 1T was some lonesome being a
Wilson delegate there" he said, "but
there is plenty of company now."

'Uncle Sam" Not Paying Promptly.

Considerable hardship is being work
ed among the pensioners because of
the fact that the quarterly August
draw" is not yet forthcoming. Under
the recent resolution extending last
years appropriation, good many pen
sions were paid, but that has been ex-
hausted and the remainder will not be
paid until Congress passes the pension
bill which will provide funds. The
government fiscal year ends June Both
and it is customary for Congress to
pass the various supply bills before
that date, but this year they are late.
1t is thought that the pension and all

MIR. James G. Burnside Sustains Painful
Injury.

Mr.. James G. Burnside of the Point
Leavel vicinity was so unfortunate one
day last week as to run rusty nail al
most completely through his foot and
causing a very painful wound. We
are glad to state however that he is
able to be about with the aid of crutch-
eS.
The injury to Mr.. Burnside was the
occasion for bringing out some of the
old folk lore stories of superstition con-
nected with sticking rusty nail in the
foot of man or beast. One of them is
suggested by Mr.. Burnside himself
who few days previous to his acct
dent walked about on pair of crutches
which neighbor had brought to his
place, but quickly laid them aside with
the remark that when a well person
walked on crutches he was sure to
meet with an injury at an early date,
which actually proved true in his case.
Another one was suggested by Smith
Burnside, an old time colored man who
works for Mr.. Burnside, who when he
heard of the accident, Immediately
asked "Whar's de NALL" and when
Mrs. Burnside informed him that she
burned it, he remarked "Lor Miss Ann
you ough'nt done that, you ought to
hid it in side of bacon, then Mars
Jim wouldn't never got lame" The
latter superstition is a very popular
one among a great many people, and
the theory is applicable to beast as
well as to a man.

Number Of Students Eligible To Entel

tendent.

The following letter recently receiv-
ed by the County School Superintend-
ent from the Chairman of the Ken
lucky State College is self explanatory
and will be source of great gratifica-
ton to many students in the county
who are DESTROYS of matriculating at
that institution.
81 wish you would inform all stud
ents who are qualified to enter and who
do not get appointments that they will
be received into the University free of
tuition. No charge of any kind will
be made against them, except an in
cidental fee of $1,000. Each of such
students will also receive travelling ex-
penses for one round trip to and from
the University each year they attend
for the full session. This arrangement
makes only $1,000 difference between
appointees and those without appoint
ments.
On account of the great number of
students applying and the limited capa-
city of our dormitories for young men,
we will not be able to furnish rooms,
fuel and lights for the young men who
hereafter apply, for the reason that
our dormitories for young men are al
ready full. Arrangements have been
made whereby names, location, and
prices of all boarding houses, rooms
for rent, student clubs, etc. are kept
in this Office, so that a student upon
arrival may find board and lodging at
reasonable rates.
The members of the Young Mems
Christian Association will meet all
trains and assist the students in being
located.
Hoping that this arrangement will
enable all your students to take ad-
vantage of this opportunity for an edu-
cation. and thanking you for the eff
fort you are making to assist us, l am
Very respectfully, w. T: Laffity Chair

To The Voters Of The City OF Lancaster

We are candidates for the office of
City Council at the election November
7th.
We think there are important mat
tiers touching the welfare of the people
of the city that have been up before
the Council heretofore and will be
again. Feeling sure that all are in
terested in the proper settlement of
these questions, we take this method
of making our position known to the
public.
LIST. There has been a constant eff
fort for some time past to secure
through the Council of the City long
term franchise or right to operate a
telephone business over our streets and
in our city. In all these plans propos-
ed if this Right has been granted there
would have been a considerable raise
in the rate over that now being charged.
The interest of the county patrons
would not have been protected, as we
deemed same should have been. And
the peoples interest were not properly
guarded as we thought they should
have been. Those of US upon the
present board opposed the granting of
your franchise to any Telephone Com
pany under the conditions and forms
as suggested. If elected; we pledge
ourselves to the people that we will
not favor any Telephone franchise in
which the rates of charges are not
fixed, in which the rate is increased
above the present rate charged. and in
which these interests are not fully
safe-guarded and protected, to the full
extent of our power and ability.
End. The Council has submitted to
vote of the people of the City the
question of whether Bonds shall be is
sued to extend the Water Works to
DIX River. Upon that question you
will vote as you see fit. If you vote to
extend the Water Works and select us
to serve you as your officers. we pledge
ourselves to carry out your wishes in
the most practical and economical way
to be found.
3rd. Those of US upon the present
Council have labored diligently to give
you the best possible streets in the
most economical way at our command
What success has come to our efforts
you can best observe by drive ovel
our streets and a comparison of the
present condition with same as you re-
call the streets when we assumed the
duties of office. We feel confident
that you will approve our efforts. We
all pledge a continuation of the work
upon the present plan as nearly as
may be at our command.
4th. We pledge, if elected, to give
our best efforts to serving the interest
of the people in all matters that may
come before US, and to continue to
give you quiet, orderly City by the
strict enforcement of your city laws.
We respectfully submit to your con-
sideration, and solicite your confidence
and support. This Oct 20, 1911.
