LET UP ON
POSTOFFTCES
The Next Congress VIII Not
Open The Pork
Barrel "
ARCHITECT 4 YEARS BEHIND.
HOpkinSvilIe Was Included In
Last Public Buildings
Bill.

While nothing can be done this
year towards starting the postoffice
building, it is gratifying to know
Hopkinsville got in on the ground
floor 1--WE have the ground, sure)
when the big Public Buildings Bills
went through all right last year. If
she hadn't been so fortunate there
is no telling how many more decades
we would have hal to wait to get
what has so long been due us.
Representative Frank Clark, of
Florida, Chairman of the Committee
on Public Buildings and Grounds of
the House, is authority for the state
ment that there will be no Demo-
cratic public building pork barrel"
at next winters session of Congress.
He says the supervising architect of
the Treasury is four years behind on
many of the buildings throughout
the country.
A couple or three months ago,
when the parties occupying the post
office site were notified to vacate,
people thought that the government
would at least put in the foundation
for the building before winter. We
hope the supervising architect will
at least catch up with his work by
spring and that then something will
be doing.
The dispatch containing the state
ment of Representative Clark, which
was sent out from Washington last
Wednesday, said that many new
Democratic members of the House
from close States who did not get
their hands in the barrel last winter
are clamoring for a chance next
winter. They say that unless they
can get buildings for their districts
they are likely to be beaten a year
hence.
Mighty good for Hopkinsville that
Representative Stanley got in his
work at the right time.

Larger and More COmDrehen-
Sive Organization Needed
to Deal With Charity.
AT FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Committee of Civic League Say
That Organization Should
Be Formed.

During the summer a committee
was appointed by the Civic League
for the purpose of distributing milk
and ice among the poor and sick. By
the generous response made to their
appeal for contributions they were
enabled to do much good. Their ex.
perience convinced them that a
larger and more comprehensive or
ganization was needed to deal with
the general charitable work Of the
city. A committee. consisting Of
Mrs. Frankel, MRS. Ira Smith and
M IS. Underwood. was appointed to
investigate the matter and to con.
slider the best way in which such ar
organic alton could be formed. This
committee has had frequent confer
e ices with the pastors and other in
fluential citizens in which plans have
b zen fully discussed looking to the
interest Of the citizens at large in
this work. 1t was finally decided to
ca a mass meeting of the people at
the Christian church for Thursday
night. Sept 25, at 1880 o'clock. At
this meeting it is expected that
steps will be taken to effect a per-
manent organization 80 that the
work may be put on a solid basis be.
fore the coming of the cold weather
To even a casual observer it is
apparent that such an organic alton
is needed in order that the charita-
be work of the city may be conduct
ed in a scientific way and il is noted
that scientific charities" is only an
other term for business-like efforts
to relieve the conditions of the poor
and to help them to help thems elves.
IL realizes that lndiscriminate giving
however sincere may be the desire
to help, is often positively injurious
to the receiver of the charity. Mere
giving of money is at best a temper
airy expedient and does not at all
reach the real permanent need. This
is movement which should receive
hearty endorsement and enthuias-
tic. liberal support of those who
feel any interest in and responsible
ty for another's dis!r IS. The re-
suit of this meeting will be a good
indication of the real desire of the
people of Hopkinsville to help their
less fortunate. but often no less de-
serving neighbor. The meeting
should be large one and should re-
lit in real good in relieving condl-
tions that ought not to exist in such
a city as ours.

Will Be The Best and Biggest
Seen In This Part
of The State.
EATING TURKEY, EATING GOLD
The Committee Fast Arranging
Everything For Dis
play.

None Of those in charge of depart
ments Of the approaching Fair are
doing more hustling than the gentle
men arranging for the poultry dis
play. This will be one Of the main
features Of the biggest event of the
year. Everybody raising poultry
ought to be interested in this de-
partment and we believe will be, and
the contests will be quite spirited.
Ii the display does not measure up
to expectations it will not be the
fault of the men who are getting
ready for the best poultry show ever
given in this end of the State. At
the fair grounds they ave arranging
everything as it should be and fancy
fowls of every breed will be brought
mere from many places. But our
own people will be strong contest
ants for the many very handsome
prizes that are offered by the direct
Dry. In the way of CHECKERS, ess
pecially. both in the county aud city,
many persons have very fine birds,
birds with pedigree and a record
that Will succe sstuly contest with
many of the finest in this State and
nei9hboring states.
The poultry committee received a
few days since the badges that are
to be given the successful contestants
and have them on display in many of
the show windows of the stores.
There are three designs and they are
pretty.
In order to give everybody chance
to get there first" the committee
has had made lot of coops which
were delivered this week. There
was long line of them, stretched
out three or four stories high, Thurs
day in front of the Forbes Mfg Co.
on Virginia street. They are paint
ed light blue. The frames are of
wood covered with poultry wire on
three sides, the front being made of
turned rods with lifting doors. The
committee will place them in posi-
ton in a few days and the man want
ing first choice as to location will
have his choice assigned to him,
As is well known Hopkinsville has
lately come into notice as a poultry
shipping point and the county 2 great
feeder for Chicago, st, Louis and
other large cities. even New York
taking large dressed consignments.
the truth is, our home people have
very nearly stopped using fowls for
the reason that the large cities will
take the entire surplus Of this and
adjoining counties sent here for re-
shipment at prices that but few local
people can sfford to pay. We used
to pay Is cents for turkey hens and
81 for gobblers. and everybody in
those days could enjoy Thanks
giving and Christmas. turkeys
and sometimes have turkey for
Sunday dinner. and f.e e like ne
was not filling up on gold dollars.
But it is not so now.
Well, If this be true, and every
body will admit that it is. so much
more the reason that fowl raisers for
market should raise nothing but the
best money producers. and the best
and only way for them to do this is
to attend the fair and see what Is
shown and buy what they want at
the very first CHARGE. And every
body knows that the raiser of choice
fowls wants to dispose Of them, so
the buyer and the seller will all
meet on the same ground ct the.
