Twill Soon be Postmaster
Stockton.

1t will be only few days until the
transfer of the postoffice business is
made and then for the first time in many
years the Richmond people will have a
Democrat to handle their mails. This
is good news only in that the people will
have come into their own and that a
mighty good Democratic citizen of Rich
mond gets good berth. For this the
Democrats feel that they have reason to
give thanks. But on the other hand,
many of them are sorry that Postmaster
G. G. Wallace, who has made such an
excellent official for the past fifteen
years. will serve them no more. Every
body likes Mr.. Wallace, who is not only
splendid postmaster, but fine gentle
man and citizen as well. And it gives
US pleasure to say that what has been
said of him can very truthfully be said
of his successor, Mr.. r. c. Stockton,
than whom no finer gentleman lives.
Mr.. Stockton has sent on his bond for
approval and on the return of it, he will
proceed to take charge, and in doing so
he will have the willing assistance of
his predecessor and his assistants. Sue
cess to him.

Three Wholesale Groceries.

Richmond now has three wholesale
groceries-good, progressive ones where
everything in the grocery line can be
secured. Two of the houses Kellogg
& Co. and Arnold, Hamilton & Luxon-
are old and wellknown, but THE
House of Hurst" is yet in its teens.
A few days ago Mr.. Sam Hurst, the
hustling proprietor of 'Hurst's Store of
Quality" decided that he would here
after sell TO dealers only, and the next
morning he was a wholesale grocer,
doing business under the catchy name
of THE House of Hurst" We are glad
to say that he and the other houses of
his line are all doing splendidly.

The Meeting at Newly.

DIR. d. NJ. Walker, of Stanford, who
has been holding a protracted meeting
at Newly, phoned US this morning that
the meeting closed last night. The
visible results were rather small, but the
membership was greatly awakened and
he believes that the meeting will re-
dound to inestimable good. He baptized
two men and woman this morning.
Last night was devoted 10 temperance
discussion and an immense crowd was
on hand. Powerful influence will be
brought to bear on the candidates for
county offices TO abstain from the use of
money and whisky in the present cam
paign by the people Of the Million and
Newly sections. DIR. Walker stated that
whisky had been considerably in evil
dence around the church and that the
better people had determined to bring
about better state Of affairs along that
line than now exists. IL is indeed UNI
fortunate that in this civilized country
there are persons so depraved as those
who will take whisky to the house OF
God with which to debauch their fellow
men. Shame on them.

A Generous Offer.

The Kentucky Utilities Co., which
owns the Electric & Power plant here,
has through its clever manager. MIR.
Geo. T. Bogard, made very liberal Of
fer to the less fortunate citizens of this
city. He has been authorized TO proffer
to any person who is i'll and cannot af-
ford an electric fan, the use of one, the
company TO put it in at its own expense
and maintain it. This will be done
when the home can be reached from its
distributing lines. OF course when it is
necessary to erect pole and seta trans
former, it would take so much time,
that the Kentucky Utilities Co. doesn't
think it expedient to make the offer.
However, it will cheerfully wire. with
out expense, the homes of those who
want fan and feel that they cannot af-
ford one. If you are so unfortunate as
to have a sick person in your home and
want a fan and haven't the money to
pay for it, see Mr.. Bogard and he and
his clever company will furnish one post
haste.

Important to Voters.

Considerable apprehension exist IS
among some of those interested in the
outcome of the primary on August End,
lest some of their friends in voting their
ballots make one mark under the roos-
ter and let it go at that. No one should
make such a mistake. The time to
make one mark under the rooster is in
the November election. In the prima-
nv Saturday week the voter must make
a mark in the square opposite the name
of each candidate for whom he wishes
TO vote, and no other. If he marks OPP
posite the name of more than one man
in each race, his vote is lost. Stamp in
the square opposite the name of your
man in each race, and not under the
rooster this time.

His Horse All Right.

Mr. C. w. Cobb, of the Red House
section, was caller at this office the
other day. Asked how his splendid
stallion, Arlington, was getting along,
he said: Doing fine; gratest horse in
this section of the State. 1t was report
ed that he was sick of black tongue, but
that was all mistake" We asked him
what he thought about this disease, and
whether il could be carried from one
stable TO another in ones clothes. He
laughed and said: Certainly not this
time of the year, when none of US wear
more clothing than is absolutely neces-
sary to hide our nakedness. believe
that black tongue can be cured all right,
if taken hold of in time. l am certain
that could carry my horses through il

Want Louisville Exhibits At
Conservation Show.

a Knoxville special says:
a committee of the board Of directors
Of the National Conservation Exposition
to be held in this city from September
to November l will 90 to Louisville next
week to present to business men and
manufacturers of that city a plan for a
comprehensive exhibit Of "Made-in-Lou-
isyille'' products at the exposition. The
committee will consist Of r. 5. Hazen
and B. A. Morton, welLknown Knoxville
business men.
The directors Of the exposition are
very anxious indeed that Louisville be
represented and believe that they viii be
able to show these Louisville men where
it will be to their advantage 10 make
this display.
just at present space is being taken
very rapidly. and the indications are
that ii will soon be at premium. Most
Of the large cities of the South, and a
number of the NORTH, already are listed
among The exhibitors. Cincinnati, for
instance, has taken 5000 feet, and the
exhibits already are being assembled.
Atlanta, Chattanooga, Nashville, Mem
phis, Birmingham, Greenville, Winston
Salem, BaltimOre-these are a few Of
the other cities that will have extensive
displays at Knoxville.
The proposition indicated by exhibit
ors from the North is this: The manu-
facturers feel that the South is the sec
ton Of the country in which the great
est development in the next few years is
to come. The South is prosperous; it is
wide awake; it is more progressive right
now than at any other time in its his
tory.
So these manufacturers Of the North
and those engaged in jobbing and gen
eral merchandising are looking toward
the South as the field in which to make
great trade extensions in the next few
years. At the National Conservation
Exposition, it is assured, the South will
be put on display as never before. Knox
vile, IL seems likely, will be a battle
ground on which will be fought the con-
flict of the North against the South once
more-this time for trade gains, and for
nothing else.
II is expected that the Exposition will
attract a million visitors.
