showed the fighting spirit for
which our town is noted, and
waded in and broke it up, mean

the prompt and diligent action

PAYS WORTHY TRIBUTE
TO GOVERNOR McCREARY

Hon. A. o. Stanley. the Democrat
ic nominee for Governor. paid
splendid tribute to the character OF
retiring Governor McCreary in his
speech at Warsaw. The old Cover
nor is going down the western slope
of life now, but in his whole career
he has been gentleman and a DEM
ocrat Sometimes we have differed
on public measures. but in no case
can it be said that tainted money
ever stuck to his hands or that faint
ed legislation ever passed through
his scrutiny. In all probability this
is Governor McCreary's last appear
ance on the stage of political actiyi-
ty, but he has always borne himself
like the gentleman that he is

TOBACCO OUTLOOK POOR
QUALITY UNDER GRADE

Paducah. KY, Oct. 10.-The
weekly review of tobacco conditions
in the Paducah district is not en-
couraging. Samples brought in
from the growing sections show
slightly better quality than was ex-
pected, but the quality is not uni
form, and as an average the crop is
poor. The signs of insect ravages
are plain, much of the best leaf be-
ing badly pierced. Firing and cut
ting has been well done, and offsets
the field damage to. some extent. AS
yet there is no indication of re-
sumption of market activity Forty
hogsheads We're sold here during the
week. Tugs bringing to cents.
common to good leaf, and / 2 cents
a pound. Mayfield reports no sales
and the market on old tobacco is
"draggy."
