The hidoSn wealth that Is now be-

has always been here. For more than
a century the natives have lived on
the surface of the lands that hold
tbess treasures, and majority of
Them have barely eked out an exis-
tence. Most of them hney they had
coal that would be valuable If in
close proximity to the great mark
cts of the world. They also knew
that it was almost valueless in the
: secluded condition that existed until
very recently. They could neither eat
nor wear the coal, and nobody want
ed to buy it at fancy prices. The In
accessibility of the country was APP
parent to our people, and we might
say appallingly SO. They looked up
on our mountains as obstacles that
railroads would not attempt to over
come while more accessible coal
fields lasted. What mature natlVe
now living on Beaver creek, Shelby,
or the headwaters OF Kentucky riy-
err had ever hoped to see railroads
in that rough region?
So we see that our coal is vaiu-
able only when leayened with NIL

Friends of Miss Geneyieve Clark
daughter. of Speaker Champ Clark
believe that the death of Represen--
tative Irwin S. Pepper, in Clinton,
Ia, has shattered a romance which
promised to lead to an early en-
gagement OF marriage of the young
woman to Mr. Pepper. The death OF
Representative Pepper will cast a
gloom over the debut Miss Clark is
to make New Years day in her
fathers home in Washington, and
which was to be one of the most
notable social events of the season.

excellent review of the month and
every one of its sixteen pages is
interesting. Mr.. Musick is a good
writer. He has convictions and ex-
presses them forcefully, but not
violently. Subjects of interest TO the

ly. The Kentuckian is neatly printed
