Eight for Bribery

The Clark County grand jury
adjourned Saturday after a long
and eventful session.
Col. Hampton's defiant atti-
tude toward the court was follow
ed by David Prewitt, a prominent
Clarkite, who also sought the
front page of the newspaper, in a
weak imitation of the Damon &
Pythias" act. One night in the
county bdStile was sufficient to
loosen his tongue and next day
it worked like it had been well
oiled. The vigorous attitude OF
the court has struck terror to the
hearts of the law violators, and
they will be caught for the next
term. The grand jury returned in.
dictments against eight person:
for bribery as follows: Zack Con
ner, Jesse Spencer, Allen Rankin
John Sumpter and policeman,
John Ballard. 1t also indicted Viii
Eubanks for betting On th'
election.

COURT CONVENES
A Remarkable Charge Given
to the Grand Jury.
THE RIGHT MUST PREVAIL.

One of the strongest charges
that has been delivered to grand
jury in the last quarter of a cen
fury was delivered by Judge Ben
ton to the. grand jury which was
empanelled for this term of the
court. He spoke eXtemporane-
ously for the first portion of his
address and was cool and deliber-
ate in expression. When he
reached that portion of his charge
dealing with bribery in elections,
he read from a carefully prepared
manuscript. In this manuscript
he gave a review of the practice
of bribery, and pointed out to
what an alarming extent it had
grown in the cultured part of the
State of Kentucky. He reviewed
it's history in Madison county and
dealt at length on the manner in
which the practice of bribery un'
derlnined the commercial and so
cial fabric of the community
The courthouse was well filled
and during the entire charge, the
people listened quietly and intent
ly, catching every word that fel
from the lips of the distinguished
jurist. The charge has created
profound impression and the bes
citizens of the community highl,
commend it. The grand jury is
body of thoughtful, conservative
men who are determined to dc
their full duty and are well known
in this community. One of oul
leading citizens, Hon. T. S. Bur
nam, was appointed as foreman
The jury is composed of the fol
lowing well known gentlemen

Irish Railroads Are a Comic
Proposition.

Recent investigations h ave
proved that there is in ireland a
manager and director for every
ten miles of track and each re-
ceiving in salary anything from
$500 to $1,000 a year, while the
ordinary workmen employed on
the same roads are receiving So a
week for sixty to seventy hours
work. There is a case of a board
of directors drawing as much as
S85, 900 annually in fees and sal
aries out of 7 miles of track, and
to add to the humor of the situa-
ton they do not own a single
locomotive, freight Car, or in
deed, a dollars worth of rolling
stock.

Fire Prevention Day

October 9, has been designated
by Governor McCreary as Fire
Prevention Day. This reminds
us that the habit of sweeping uT
dry leaves and burning them on
the streets is a habit that ought
not prevail. They should be
swept up and carted away, ther
the smoke nuisance would be Al
bated, and danger from ignition
from burning leaves would be
avoided.

have a bearing upon future wool
values on this side or the water.
The live hog and provision trade
has suddenly become a question OF
how 10 get raw material with which
TO furnish the killing operations OF
the big packing plants. The record
price OF $40 per barrel, recently made
for May pork, caused a countrywide
sensation, and Incidentally called the
attention OF the provision trade at
large to the fact that the packing
season Is nearly over. and still there
are no cured meats in store. While
II would look like bad business 70
try 10 bull provisions from this basis,
still the records OF heavy consump-
ton OF pork products which have
been made during the last so days
certainly suggest a famine in this de-
partment before long IL the arrivals
of live hogs In the big market CEN
tiers do not increase In volume very
soon.
One OF the strong bull features In
connection with the provision outlook
is the continued strength OF corn:
this fat-producing cereal is holding
up in price, right In the face OF the
largest supplies ever known at this
time OF year. In fact, values are ris-
ing when statistics and every other
fact that would seem TO give q key
TO the future OF the trade would seem
10 foreshadow n sharp decline. On
the whole, however, we believe the
present TO be 4 good time TO sell both
hogs and provisions.
