Two Undesirables

Two very distinguished gentle
men-Messrs. Holt and Shaw, so
they gave their names, and
whose addresses we did not learn
were brought before County
Attorney Sullivan the first of the
week. 1t seems that they had no
occupation, unless it was ped
ding booze. No positive proof
was at hand, but indications
pointed that way. The gentle-
men were advised to leave town
"while going was good" this or
der going into effect immediate
ly. AS all the trains had gone
that day, they wanted to remain
until the next day, but deputy
sheriff Dettinger promptly in
formed them that the order
from the County Attorney said
Immediately" therefore there
was no waiting for another
train. They went Immediately.
Mr.. Dettinger very kindly es-
corted them two miles out Of
town in his automobile, and from
that point they were invited to
walk. When last seen they were
going west, so if they land in any

to say he will not return to call
for it.

EDISON FOR
WOODROW
Noted Inventor Declares He
Will Work and Vote For
President Wilson

Saratoga, N. Y. Sept. 3. Thom
as A. Edison, inventor, life long
Republican, and a supporter OF
Theodore Roosevelt for the Re.
publican nomination, made an
nouncement today of his inten
tion to vote and work for Wood
row Wilson. He dictated the
following sta.ement:
"Not since 1860 has any cam
paign made such direct call on
simon pure Americanism. The
times are too serious to talk or
think in terms of Republicanism
or Democracy. Americans must
drop parties and get down to fun
damental principles.
More than any other president
in my memory, Wilson has been
faced by succession of tremen-
dous problems, any one of which
decided the wrong way would
have had disasterous consequen-
ces. Wilson's decisions so far
have not got us into any serious
troub bic, nor are they likely to.
He has given us peace with
honor. This talk about the
United States being despised is
nonsense. Neutrality is Almighty
trying policy, but back of it are
international Law, the rig gnts of
humanity, and tie future Of civ
illzation.
With reference to Mexico, l
think the President has acted,
wisely, justly, and courageously.
1t has been said Wilson at fast
was against preparedness. Per-
haps he was, but when convinc-
ed that intelligent public option
was overwhelmingly in favor of
it, he changed. That is the
proper thing for our President
to do. A President defiant of
public opinion would be dan
gerous man in our system Of
government.

THE STRIKE
I is SETTLED
Through The Efforts Of The
President the Country is
Saved From Strike

Washington, Sept. 3.-The Ad-
amson 8-Hour Day bill, exacted
from congress last week by the
railroad brotherhoods as the
price of calling off the nation
wide strike ordered for tomor-
row, was signed by President
Wilson today in his private car
at the Union Station, where he
stopped on his way from Shadow
Lawn, N. j., to Hodgenville, KY.
That there may be no question
as to the legality of the measure
as a result of it having been
signed on Sunday, the President
will affix his signature again up
on his return to Washington
Tuesday.
|, How long peace shall reign as
a result of the bill apparently is
dependent upon developments in
the proposed move to test the
constitutionality of the act.
Should the railroads take no ac-
tion, but await the beginning of
an investigation of the workings
of the 8-hour day by the special
commission for which the meas
ure provides, the brotherhoods
will remain inactive.
Still Keep Strike as Weapon
The employees leaders de-
clare, however, that should the
law be held unconstitutional and
the railroads attempt to restore
the 10-hour day on their lines, a
strike will follow promptly.
Brotherhoods in a circular let
ter to their members today made
no comment on the measure as
passed. They merely pointed
out that it would not become ef-
fective until next January /, and
that many things might occur
between now saald then which
would change materially any
suggestions or comment they
might make.
None of the brotherhood lead
ers witnessed the signing of the
bill, which was attended by no
ceremony, the President writing
his name upon the bill at the
station, where it had been taken.
Near the car window group of
trainmen in their overalls
paused in their work long
enough to watch the President
write his name. An engineer
passing on yard engine, cele-
brated the occasion with several
prolonged blasts Of his whistle.

saw the look. The tears she would

She tried 10 mask her emotion with

Jesse T. Jones

A sad death occurred near here last
Wednesday when Jesse T. Jones an
swered his last call on earth. This was
not great surprise, as Mr.. Jones was
in his sixtieth year and had been vic
tim Of acute indigestion for some time.
On the goth inst. he was stricken on the
right side with paralysis, never speak
ing word after that. DR.. w. A.
Woodruff and the community showed
their loving sympathy by their faithful
visits and doing all possible to be done.
His body was laid in Six Mile cemetery
after his funeral was conducted by Rev.
B. c. Atkinson on the 26th. Of his
family his widow is all that is left. He
had two children to precede him to the
grave, He has one brother, Bill Jones.
of Anderson county, and three sisters
to grieve their irreparable loss. The
many friends and loved ones sympa-
thize with Mrs, Licena Jones, his widow,
in these her dark hours of grief and
sorrow. A FRIEND.

"A Delightful Reunion

Mr.. Editor: must tell you and the
readers of The Sentinel of a delightful
reunion at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Henry j. Lewis on October 20, 1916. At
10 o'clock a.. m. the people began COM
ing in auto cars, carriages and buggies,
including relatives and friends of Mr..
and Mrs. Lewis too numerous to men
ton by name. Some time was spent in
relating incidents that occurred years
ago. We were reminded of the great
men that once lived in this section, and
by their deeds of kindness have left on
the minds of the rising generation some
precious thoughts that have been a
means of helping to raise the standard
for good citizenship.
!, AT noon the ladies' began to examine
into their baskets and boxes which they
had brought along and found them to
contain such an abundance of good
things to eat. After all had partaken
the long table was still heavy laden
with cake and pies and so many other
good things I can't mention. 1t was a
day long to be remembered S.
