The central record. (Lancaster, Ky.) 18??-current, 1912-04-12

The friends of Mr.. Joseph Robinson
in Mercer will learn with regret of his
determination not to offer for Com
monwealth's Attorney. Having heard
of the distinguished ability, the fear
less courage and the uncompromising
integrity which characterized his ca
reer as County Attorney of Garrard,
many people had solicited him to make
the race and had determined to give
him their earnest support. While in no
wise candidate he gave some con-
sideration to the lattering solicitation
of the voters of the county and of the
other counties of the district. We are
advised by one who seems to know
that if the Office were rendered him
without opposition he could not accept
it because of the sacrifice it would liz
volve to his large practice and other
business interests. There is no doubt
that his candidacy would have received
fiattering recognition here, and it is to
be regretted that such men cannot re-
spond to the call of the people, because
of the splendid and much needed SER
vice they could give to their state. 1t
is hoped that sometime in the future
Mr.. Robinson may find himself in such
situation that when the people call for
his earnest and patriotic services he
will be able to respond heartily

sanitary, badly ventilated and badly
fitted to accommodate the 400 or more
children who We're seeking educational
advantages within its walls, A bond
issue of s2a, oaa,. again up to the limit
was asked of the people, the PROPOSE
ton carried unanimously, and the City
Council now have $4,000. in their
hands to expend for the extension of
the water works system, and the School
Trustees have $29, 900. in their hands
for the erection of new school build
ing.
This speaks well not only for the
progressive spirit of the people, but it
shows that they have elected men to
their public Offices in whom they can
place implicit confidence, for what
greater mark of confidence can be
shown in man or body of men than
to place your money in their hands
with feeling that they wiz spend that
money judicionsly. And that both of
these distinguished bodies of gentlemen
will expend the respective funds placed
in their hands in wise and intelligent
manner and for the very best interest
of the people. we have not the shadow
of a doubt, and when they have COM
pleted their labors, we feel certain that
Lancaster will have an inexhaustable
supply of pure, wholesome water, and
will have a school building equal in
every respect to the buildings in other
towns of its size in Kentucky.

Overwhelming Majority For School Bonds
Only Five Dissenting Votes Cast
Against Them.

The proposition to issue $29, 900.
bonds for the purpose of erecting q
graded school building in Lancaster,
which was submitted to the people OF
the district on last Saturday, carried
unanimously, there being only five dis.
senting ballots: there was 251 votes in
favor of the issuance of the bonds anG
five against their issuance. This means
that in the very near future Lancaster
is to have school building adequate to
the growing necessity for more room,
and modern built, modern equipped
up-to-date school building, sanitary
well ventilated well lighted and with
the modern appliances of every de.
scription. which are to be found in al
of the school buildings erected in re.
cent years.
The present school building at the
time the property was bought and the
buildings overhauled and added to, to
make them suitable for thepurposes for
which they are being used, were
thought to be in every respect suitable
for that purpose, but the influx of peo-
pie seeking the advantages of good
educational facilities was not then fore
seen, and the building soon became so
congested as to be wholly unequal to
the demands made upon it, and it was
seen that something must be done to
remedy this state of affairs, but Just
how to do this without placing an adj
ditional burden of taxation upon the
people was problem which could not
be easily solved. until the death of one
of our noblest and best citizens, that
philanthropic gentleman, Mr.. Lewis,
Y. Leavell, bequeathing fund for the
use of the school which made possible
the erection of adequate buildings with
out additional taxation; then it was
that it was determined to issue bonds
and erect new building. Of course
nothing can be done just at present
toward the contemplated improvements
but with the closing of the present
school term, the trustees will doubtless
get busy and rush the erection of the
new building to rapid completion.

Incomplete, but sufficient returns to
leave no doubt of the result of the pri-
mary election held in Illinois on last
Tuesday, shows Clark to have won the
democratic nomination over Wilson,

returns now indicate by a two to one
vote. Roosevelt defeated Taft, his

of the primary vote simply serving as
a guide and indication to party feeling
and preference.

The April term of the Boyle Circuit
Court convened in Danville on Monday
with Judge Charles A. Hardin presid-
ing. He delivered an unusually strong
charge to the grand jury, dwelling at
length on the infractions of the law in
general, and on the pistol carrying evil
and the blind tigers in particular, urging
that body to go after every one whom
they might suspect of being guilty of
these charges. There was a large
crowd in town for the opening of court
and much favorable comment was
heard on the mastery charge to the
grand jury, and the good people of
Boyle are hoping for and expecting
that good part of the criminals who
have infested their town and county of
late have about reached the end of
their tether and are about to feel the
heavy hand of the law.

What has become of the Garrard
County Development Association? We
believe that it is about time that it
should begin to get busy, that there is
work for it to do: the commercial bod
les in other cities are taking on new
life, and it would be well for Lancaster
to let it be known that she is still on
the map, and is an active contender for
anything good that might be headed in
her direction. Over at Harrodsburg
they held big Mass Meeting and ap-
pointed committee composed of at
least half hundred of the leading cit
liens to confer with the Burley Tobac-
co Society in regard to the establish
ment of loose leaf market in their
city.
They also appointed committee with
reference to the building of a trolley
line in connection with the construction
of the big dam which is to be construct
ed across Dix river and another to con-
suit with the Central Kentucky Trac-
ton Co. in regard to the extension of
the line from Nicholasville. The Har-
rodsburg body seems to be a live one
for sure and is going out after every
thing in sight. The early bird usually
secures the best breakfast, and if Ian
caster does not keep her eyes about
her, she is liable to lose something in
the way of an industrial plant or troll
ley line, which by the exercise of a
little more diligence on her part, she
might have secured.

Factions Disagree And Republicans Send
Two Sets Of Delegates To Conven-
finn

The largest republican convention
ever held in Lancaster was the one
last Saturday. Before nine o'clock the
streets on the Public Square were most
blockaded with the enthusiastic ad-
herents of President Taft and Colonel
Roosevelt, the friends of each present
ing the relative merits of their leader.
The Roosevelt forces from Paint Lick
came down headed by a brass band,
which greatly aided the leaders to
handle the large crowd who came to
help carry the convention for the ex-
President. The Roosevelt leaders had
made arrangements to furnish enter
tainment for their followers by free
lunch with burgoo and coffee with the
band playing while they were waiting
for the final line up. Free lunch was
also furnished by the Taft leaders.
When county chairman, w. G. Winn
called the convention to order from the
front steps of the court house. between
eleven and twelve hundred republicans
pressed around the speakerand when he
directed the Taft followers to go down
Stanford Street and the Roosevelt sup

the Court house on the Public Square
and instructed the sixteen delegates to
vote for Colonel Roosevelt for presi-

ton will show the largest democratic
majority in Kentucky and in Garrard
County ever counted.
