Candidates Announce
for Race for Governor

Already the politically ambi.

for next year, and announcements
ale now being made by those
who intend to seek for honors in
Kentucky at the primary in Au-
gust 1915. Lieutenant. Governor
K. j. McDermott, Of Louisville,
has already announced that he
will be a candidate for Governor,
and several Others are expected
to announce at once, among them
being State Auditor Boswor'h,
Attorney General Gsrnett, Com
missioner of Agriculture j W.
Newman, and ii. V. McChesney.
1t is also expected that Congress
man A. o. Stanley will enter the
race, although he has made no
official announcement, other than
to state that he has been petI.
toned by over ten thonsand vot.
ers of the state to make the race.
There was some talk of Senator
Camden making the race, but il
is not thought that he will, ashe
cares little for the political hon
Ors, and was satisfied with being
elected to the short term in the
Senate. Judge j. Fl. Hazelrigg,
who is a strong opponent of both
prohibition and equal suffrage,
has also been. mentioned, as we'll

hardly likely that he will enter.
Probably the most popular can

be Congressman Stanley, and il
is almost assured that he would

cording to all accounts, proved
rather elusive, as the majority of
the hunters returned with slim
game bags Birds are scarce yet,
although hunters claim that
there are plenty of them in the
county, and good sport is being
furnished for those who have a
good dog and gun. A large nun.

brought in, and they appear to
be plentiful.

Good Report Of Clay City Bank.

Attention is called to the half
page advertisement of the Clay
City National Bank in this issue.
This bank is one of the strongest
in the state as their regular re.
ports show. These reports as
published in The Times every
few weeks, are not picked by the
bank officials when their deposits
would make the best showing,
hut are selected by the Comp
troller of the Currency. On the
occasi"n "t the last report of the
local bank, the. deposits had in
creased several Thousand Dollars
in the three days succeeding the
report, but this increase did not
show in the report, in spite Of
which il was one of the best re-
ports published by any bank in
the state.

Federal Reserve
Starts Business:

The Federal Reserve Banking
System has gone into effect, and
the result is the turning loose
of four hundred millions of dol
lars from the National Treasury.
This should help the financial
condition of the country some.
and maybe some of our subcrib-
ers who have not vet paid up
their subscriptions will now be
able to make the raise.
The Clay City National Bank,
being "live wire", is, of course,
u member ofthe new system, and
Powell county will benefit by
their progressiveness.

The writer does not know much
about Wr. Shackelford but we do
not see any need of changing
Circuit Judge at this time. Judge
Benton is considered one of the
best Circuit Judges in the state

viable reputation as Judge of
this District. The leading men
of Kentucky are demanding of
him that he announce himself

Judge BentOn's decisions have
been reversed. Today his decrs-

many who had no intentions of

taken their order without his pay

SECRECY A CRIME.

The worst thing you can do for
consumptive is to keep him from
knowing that he is a consumptive
We used to think that telling folks
the truth about themselves when
they had consumption would scare
them to death. Somehow some of
them found it out in spite of us and
instead of being scared to death they
set about taking the cure and got
well. Most of those we didn't tell
found it out too late or aggravated
their cases through ignorance and
landed in consumptives' graves in
short time.
The State Board of Health is in
recript of letter from a gentleman
regarding one of his associates who
is known to be a consumptive. The
consumptive's family and friends
are aware of his condition and are
afraid of him. They are also afrai
to tell the consumptive lest it might
scare him to death. Yet they are
letting him 90 about his daily work
