Mt. Sterling should wake up and
do the same. 1t really costs but
very little to keep it clean and
orderly.
1t may be assumed that aside
from our own objection to the
present state of affairs, strangers,
when seeing the conditions, criti-
else US freely, in fact it has given
us the ''black eye" long enough.
Let us have a change for the
better.

Mr.. L. T. Chiles left the first of

she is able to be out again, after

The case of the Commonwealth
VS.. Thomas Dolan, charged with
the murder of Patrick Mooney, is
now being tried at Lexington.
This case has been tried twice be-
fore, both trials resulting in hung
juries. This case has excited
much interest in Lexington, as
both were prominent men.

Condition of MaChpelah
Cemetery Is Shameful.

Lets read the charter and see if
the conditions are being complied
with. The amendment made to
the charter of the Machpelah
Cemetery Company in 1881 are as
follows:
That for the purpose of keep
ing said cemetery grounds in re-
pair in the future, it shall be the
duty of said Cemetery Board to set
aside twenty per cent. of all gross
receipts of said Board from the
sale of lots or otherwise to be in
vested by them each year in some
safe securities until the fund for
the purpose of keeping said ceme-
terry grounds in repair principal
and INTEREST," shall reach the sum
of eight thousand dollars, the in
terest alone of said sum shall be
used in keeping said grounds in
repair, and purchasing other
grounds. All the balance of the
receipts shall be controlled by the
Board of Directors of said COM
pany with the advice and consent
of Watson Lodge"
We only ask what our dead
would demand as their rights if
they were living-and don't we
owe it to their MEMORY and to de-
cency to see that it is done for
them9 We only ask that anyone
who doubts the disgraceful, un-
civilized condition of the cemetery,
drive up there and compare it
with the colored one and it will
bring a blush of shame to their
faces and a pang to their hearts.
The odor of the hog pen, as we
enter the gate, the decayed trees
that they refuse to move, the vault,
with its empty barrels, working
tools and rubbish in front, the
grass a foot high all over the Gem

the resting place of your loved
ones to be pointed out as the very
worst cemetery in the State.
This is written only with the de-
sire that we realize the absolute
necessity of putting our cemetery
in the proper condition, customary
everywhere else but here. If our
neighboring towns of Ow-
and Sharpsburg can afford
the expense of keeping their ceme-
teries in perfect condition, surely
