Yesterdays Herald contained an
account Of the burning of residence
on Mrs. Meyers Animas valley ranch.
1t appears that the occupants, Mr.. and
Mrs. Stewart, lost every worldly pos
session with the exception Of kitchen
range, some flour and a sack of
wheat, all their clothing, including
that Of four children, being burned.
Even the clothing worn by Mrs. Stew
art at the time was badly burned in
trying to save some of their goods.
The Stewards have been having Sc
ries of hard luck. The past summer
they rented ranch on Pine river and
after the first crop of alfalfa was cut
and put up. the hay barn caught fire
and was entirely destroyed and it
took the remaining crop of hay and
grain to pay the rent and now they
are without anything to wear with
the exception of what was on their
backs, Mr.. Stewart returning to the
ranch from Bayfield, an hour or so
after the fire. The children vary in
age from 2 to 10 years, the latter
being girl, and families having ar

ALL DEMOCRATS SHOULD
VOTE IN AUGUST PRIMARY

Urging that every Democrat in
Kentucky participate in the coming
State primary, Editor Urey Woodson
says in the Owensboro Messenger:
1.-THE State primary this year will
be on the first day of August. There
are candidates and candidates to be
considered, but the important thing
for the Democrats is to be sure to go
to the polls and vote. This is the
right time for loyalty to country and
to party. 1t is best known by taking
a deep interest in the public affairs
of the country. 1t is a time to stand
by ones political colors.
"All kinds of efforts are being made
to discomfort the President, but it is
having no effect. He will not let go
even though it thunders. He is right
as well as plucky.
LET every democrat get ready for
the August primary, and let him en-
courage all his neighbors to turn out
and show the President, as we'll as
the enemies of the cou1try's best in
terest that Democrats are loyal to
both party and to country. A great
Democratic vote in the August pri-
mary will be vote of confidence in
the President"

ance of Mr.. G.. A. Thomas, of Frank

pected to prove a great drawing card
in getting the country folk of Bourbon

gwen to hear music by one OF these
famous bands except during the Chau,
tauqua season or at the theatres, and

FINE PROSPECTS IN THIS
COUNTY FOR GROWING CROPS

The prospects for growing crops In
Bourbon County is very satisfactory
at present. The county has been
blessed with good soaking rains that
have been worth thousands of dollars
to the growing crops. Meadows that
were parched by the hot sun have
taken on new life and corn and tobac-
co already show indications OF bene-
fits derived from the showers.
An unusual occurrence in this sec
ton in July was the planting OF
number of tobacco fields, and also
gardens. The weather conditions had
not been favorable for the former
work. and vegetables that had been
planted earlier in the season had drl-
ed I'D for lack of rain. There is hope
that both will mature before the
frosts come. There is said to be
fine prospect for apples and peaches
Unless there is repetition or the
unfavorable weather conditions that
prevailed during the middle OF July
and earlier, the crops will have
growing chance to reach maturity.

THAVIU AND HIS BAND.

Versatility is one of the great fea
lures of Thaviu, who with his cele-
brated band, is coming to the Paris
Fair Grounds, for one performance
Sunday afternoon, August 2.
Thaviu has won an enviable place
in modern music with his vigorous
methods and tasteful programs. He
and his band are known throughout
the length and breadth of the land
They have found favor with music
lovers in all walks of life, and have
gained fame in every quarter of the
country.
Combined with his power as a con.
ductor Thaviu is a cornetist of great
ability and his playing has been
praised by the highest critics in
Ameica. AS a program maker he is
without a peer or a rival. He seems
to suit any gathering, from the friv'
olous crowds at the summer parks
who seek nothing but the gayer and
lighter melodies, to the more sedate
gatherings in the Chautauquas, who
demand music of a higher grade and
style.
Thaviu knows music and knows
musicians. He has one of the very
best musical organizations on the
road this season, and not only carries
a band that is perfect in every detail
but also presents an opera company
that offers grand opera in the best
taste and in the best manner.
Without a doubt the coming OF
Thaviu and his band to Paris will be
q rare musical treat. At the Paris
Fair Grounds, Sunday afternoon
August 2, for one performance only.

AGED PREACHER
STRONG FOR THOMAS
North Middletown, KY, July 20.

North Middletown, KY, July 20.
To the Democratic Voters of Seventh
Congressional District:
Il am in my seventy eighth year of
age, was born, reared and lived near
ly all my life in Bourbon County, KY.
Have been a preacher in the Chris
tian Church nearly fifty-five years,
and l wish to say, that have known
the Hon. Claude M. Thomas from
childhood to the present
81 joined farms with his father for
twenty-six years, and when Claude
Thomas was boy we regarded him
as one of the brightest and best boys
of the county, as young man a clean
sober, moral, and upright gentleman,
and to-day he is a model Christian
gentleman and stands above reproach.
HE has been opposed to whisky,
and all sorts of immortality from his
early boyhoOd days. He is in every
way qualified to make us just such a
Congressman as we need to bring
honor to the Seventh District.
He is man that knows nothing
about billingsgate, mud-slinging and
classifying hem owes in a higher plane
of though.
He is a Democrat in politics, never
having scratched a ticket. He has
been a Wilson man before and after
the Baltimore convention, and has
unbounded confidence in his admins
tration. He has endorsed temperance
and be assured you have no greater
friend, and no more faithful, earnest
advocate.
'He is a great all-round man, a man
of intelligence, education, uprightness
of character, and in soundness of
moral principle irreproachable. When
there is moral issue before the peo-
pie we never have to inquire to
where he stands. Always ready and
willing to to work for the moral bet
terment and uplift of the people.
'The people of our district should
without fail select him as our candi-
date, and be sure to elect him at the
fall election. His influence for good
would rise a star of first magnitude
in the Congressional galaxy.
Yours very truly,
81. H. REYNOLDS"

LIQUOR ELECTION RE-
FUSED IN SCOTT

County Judge Joseph B. Ward de-
clned to call a local option election
Tor September %, in Scott County,
after the arguments were presented
10 him by the attorneys for the
"drys." The courts opinion was that
since an election on the same sub
iect mad been ordered and held in
Scott County a little more than a year
ago. ne was unable to call another
election.
The petition signed by more than
1926 voters from the eighteen pre-
cinctS Of Scott County and containing
more than twenty-five per cent. of the
votes cast at the last general election,
was presented to Judge Ward. After
petitioners had introduced the testi-
uony showing the residence of citi-
zens signing the petition, they asked
the court to call the election for Sep
TENDER %.
The petition filed by the "wets"
asking that an election on the same
DAY be held in Georgetown was there
fore dismissed by the court.
The "drys" will now institute a suit
in Circuit Court and seek to compel
tie County Judge by mandatory order
10 call the election, notwithstanding
his Interpretation of the law.
The matter will now likely be in
the courts for an indefinite length of
time before any action can be held.
Scott Circuit Court begins on the first
Monday in October, at which time the
question of mandamus against Judge
Ward will be heard.

THE MOUNTAIN COUNTIES
STRONG FOR BECkHAM

The mountain counties still show
their preference for Gov. j. G. W.
Beckham for United States Senator,
and that the ex-Governor's strength
it still gaining at rapid rate is
proof conclusive, as the date of the
primary nears. The few followers OF
Stanley and McCreary are still rails
ing a howl, but without avail, ana
nothing can be done to stay the
Beckham strength, and he is sure OF
the largest vote that was ever polled
for any man in the history OF the
mountains.
The Hon. F. H. Harris, OF Whites
burg, has been selected as campaign
manager for Beckham, in Letcher
County, and the organization will be
as complete as can be made.
