ASK WRIT OF
PROHIBITION
Lawyers for w. T. Fitzpatrick
Want Court of Appeals to
Stop Trial Here.

Attorneys for w. r. Fitzpat-
rick have filed in the Court of
Appeals at Frankfort, a petition
against Circuit Judge Will A.
Young seeking writ of prohibi-
ton to prevent the further trial
of the inquiry into Mr. .Fitzpat-
rick's competency, in the Circuit
Court.
Awrit of prohibition is defined
by the Kentucky Civil Code of
Practice as an order from a
superior court Ito an inferior
court of limited jurisdiction pro-
hibiting it from proceeding in a
matter out of its jurisdiction"
Blacks Law Dictionary defines it
as "a writ issued by superior
court, direct to the judge and
parties of a suit in an inferior
court, commanding them to cease
from the prosecution of the
same, upon a suggestion that the
cause originally, or some collater-
al matter arising therein, does
not belong to that jurisdiction,
but to the cognizance of some
other court"
1t is contended by his coun-
sci that the trial of the case in
the county was a final trial and
that no appeal could legally be
prosecuted to the Circuit Court.
AS soon as the required notice
is served upon Judge Young the
Court of Appeals will determine
the question of jurisdiction. This
is the only question, as we under
stand it, that will be considered
by the higher court.
The writ of prohibition is an
extraordinary remedy and one
that is seldom resorted to and the
outcome will be watched with in
tercst here by lawyers and lay
men alike.

BEAUTIFUL
LIFE ENDS
Death Comes Suddenly to One of
the Most Beloved Women of
Our County.

Many were the hearts that
were made sad last Thursday
morning when it became known
that Mrs. Laura White Magow-
an had died suddenly at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. A.
B. Ratliff. Deceased was one of
the best known and highly re-
spected women of Montgomery
county.
Mrs. Mcgowan has been resid-
ing with her daughter, Mrs. w.
A. Samuels, for several years, but
had gone to the country home
of her daughter for short visit
and while there Gods finger
touched Grand she slept She had
been afflicted with asthma for
years but had been feeling es-
pecially we'll for several days
prior to her last illness, which
lasted but few hours and while
everything that medical atten-
ton and loving ministrations
could do was done for her, she
gradually sank until death re-
lieved her suffering.
Mrs. Mcgowan had been a de-
vout member of the Christian
church since early childhood and
her beautiful hfe and character
has been truly living example
of what constitutes a good chris
tan woman and follower of
Christ.
Deceased was born in this
county in September, I84o, and
was the widow of the late Asa
Magoman, who preceded her to
the grave many years. She is
survived by three daughters, Mrs.
Robt. c. Gatewood, Mrs. w, A.
Samuels and Mrs. A. B. Ratliff,
and one brother, Mr.. James B.
White. To them the Advocate eX-
tends sincere sympathy in their
sorrow.
The funeral services were con-
Quoted at the, residence of Mr.. A.
B. Ratliff at 2 100 o'clock Friday
afternoon with interment in
Machpelah cemetery.

quietly married at the residence
of Rev. +. l.. Powell, of Louis
vile, Saturday night.
Mr.. Ewing is well known in
this county where he has many
relatives, and the news of his
marriage will be received with
interest. He is one of the most
prominent farmers and stockmen
of Bath county His bride is a
very attractive and lovely young
woman, deservedly popular with
a large circle of friends. We eX-
tend best wishes.

CITY CROWDED
COURT DAY
Thousands of Visitors Throng
the Streets and Horse and
Mule Market Fair.

About 200 cattle on the mark
ct, the quality was only fair,
trade a bit slow which is not to
be wondered at when prices are
considered. Some small steers
were weighed at $8.25 and some
punches sold by the head at from
9 to 10 cents. Heifers sold at
500 TO 80. Cows at 5 to 6H
cents. Bulls at 01z. Old cows
and rough oxen 4 to 5 cents.
Fair sized crowd at the pens and
while we had no foreign buyers
all of the Central Kentucky coun-
ties had purchasers. Most of the
stock sold by the head and it
was difficult to catch sales. We
give few:
Murphy G. Hughes sold 8 700
pound bulls to O. w. Snedegar,
of Bah county, at 61a cents.
Lee Faulkner sold Fl 800 Id.
steer calves at $8.25 and 7 600
Id. heifers at $40 to Thornton
Smelling.
VIM. Treadway sold a yoke OF
1000 Id. oxen to Al kerns, of
Carlisle, at ! cents. Mr.. Kerns
bought IS small steers and heif-
ers at $50. per head and laugh
ingly said they cost 10 cents.
Andrew English, of Bath coun-
ty, bought IS about 700 pound
steers of Floyd Horton at 500.
per head.
Sam Keeton sold 10 about O25
pound steers to Henry Riggs at
$500 per head.
Sam Lathrum, of Bath county,
bought II about $50 pound heif-
ers at $4,000 per head.
Sales were briskcr in the after
noon and prices held up and in
some cases higher as some cat
tie we're sold at 81 90 on the head
advance. The pens were pretty
well cleaned by night. Cattle
sold higher than we have ever
seen them on this market.
Some mules on the market
and while they sold at good
prices they seemed to be little
lower than last court. The horse
market had very little life in it
for ordinary horses and buyers
were few and far between.

is WILLING
TO RESIGN
Huerta Gives Delegates Permis-
sion to Submit Proposition
For Him.

General Huerta has authorized
the Mexican mediation delegates
to submit his resignation in case
such a course is found necessary
to a settlement in the peace ne
gotiations.
This was stated positively in
dispatches from a thoroughly
competent diplomatic source in
Mexico City, to one of the for
eign representatives and con-
firms intimations given by
friends. of the delegates.
According to this information
from Mexico City, Gen. Huerta
at first authorized the delegates
to discuss only the question of
the Tampico conflict leading TO
the American occupation of Vera
Cruz.
Later the Mexican dictator, it
is explained, came to recognize
the necessity of a broader settle
ment and then conveyed to the
delegates assurances that he was
prepared to step down, should
this course be found necessary
by them.
The problem causing chief con-
Germ to diplomats in Mexico City
now is. that of the form of adj
ministration to be established
during the interregnum before a
constitution ally elected President
could assume office.
No limitations concerning the
name of a possible successor to
Huerta were contained in the
dispatch, this subject being one
in which it would be necessary
to consult the opinion of consti-
tuition alists and other leaders in
Mexico.

AN HONORED.

by being made chairman of the
committee to help raise funds
for rebuilding Wellesley Col
lege which burned several
months ago.
The meeting of the Kentucky

but we are confident that Mrs.

task.

MUSICALE ENJOYED.

The piano recital given at the
High School Auditorium Friday
night was attended by a large
crowd. The pupils showed care
full training and the manner in
which they rendered the various
numbers was quite compliment
to the ability of their teacher,
Miss Minnie Sue Graves.

of Johnson N. Camden.

In this connection the latest
gossip is that Mr.. Camden will
not be a candidate for Governor,
as has been SO persistently re-
ported, but that he will remain
out of the gubernatorial race,
and will be brought out by his
friends as fit successor to Sena-
tor Ollie M. James in the Sena-
torial election in 1918.

OPPOSITION
TO BECKHAM
Seems to Have Collapsed and
Federal Machine Cannot
Stop Land Slide.

velopmehts in the trend of polit.
ical affairs in Kentucky in the
last week, has been the almost
utter collapse of the opposition
to Governor Beckham in his fight
for the Democratic nomination
for United States Senator.
AS the summer advances, in
terest will increase in the Repub-
lican race for the nomination.
The interesting fact is that the
interest in the Republican party's
selection of candidate begins at
the very time that the Democrat
ic nomination becomes foregone
conclusion and therefore decid-
eddy lacking in interest.
The nomination of Governor
Beckham is assured by the COM
plete failure of the friends of
Governor McCreary to accom-
plish two necessary strategic
moves. The first move was to
enlist the courthouse crowd" in
the various counties of the State
under the McCreary banner.
The second was to use these
groups of busy politicians to de-
velop sentiment for McCreary, as
the most available candidate in
November.
The first move was more or
less successful. In, many coun-
ties, where there appeared to be
a popular sentiment for Stanley
or Beckham, the county officials
with their organization talked
learnedly of the detection which
would follow the nomination of
either of those candidates, and
that good old Mac" was the only
man who could unite the party
in November.
The second move to bring the
popular support around from
Stanley and Beckham to Nc
Creary was less easy to accom-
plish. The Leader stated some
weeks ago that the crest of Stan
ley's popularity was reached at
Mt. Sterling. He has made little
if any Roadway since. The work
of the organization, therefore,
was to win over the Beckham
supporters to McCreary, This
task, begun in highest confidence,
has now practically collapsed
and in more than one county the
trend has become almost a SIAM
pede to the Bcckham band wag-
on.
One of Lexington's most as
tute politicians said last night to
party of seven local Democrats,
that the most disappointed men
over the result of the Fayette
county primary would be Cover
nor McCreary.
The same Democrat made the
statement, which he offered to
support by a deposit of cash col
lateral against successful contra
diction, that Beckham would car
ry not only all the counties in
the Seventh district, but seventy
out of the 100 counties in the
State in the primary. And each
of the seven Democrats in the
group agreed with him,
1t was noticeable yesterday
that in talking with local Demo
Gratis, all of whom were convinced
that the campaign for the nomi-
nation was over, Stanley was not
seriously considered at all, that
McCreary's hapes were dimmed
by the insurance mess and extin-
gushed by his ill-advised APP
pointments to the Racing Com
mission, which are now being re-
garded as planned less by Nc
Creary to help his candidacy, as
fore d on the Governor in the in
