Mrs. N. {. CUNNINGHAM.

Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Cunningham,
daughter Of the late Basley andDru-
silla Young, and widow Of the late
Ashley B. Cunningham, died on last
Tuesday evening at 1880 o'clock, in
her old home, in the old 7th dis
district, one mile from Juno, at the
age Of II years, 5 months and "a
days, after an illness of about five
weeks and eighteen days Of confne-
ment to her bed.
AT the age Of 16 years she was
married to Mr.. Cunningham, March
16, 1855. OF the eight children
born to that happy union, some died
in childhood and but two survive
JohE E., and Walter S., the latter
living with her at the time Of her
death and ever since the death of
his father, which occurred August
10, 1905.
Mrs. Cunningham had been a
member Of the Southern Methodist
church for perhaps sixty years, with
membership all the time at Shady
Grove.
Mrs. Cunningham was one of the
greatest women Of the world, filling
with honor and credit for so years
a place which entitled Ter to be
classed as no other lype of wo-
man is en- tiled to be--a true and
faithful wife, an exemplary mother,
a kind neighbor and true Christian
character. 1t was her good fortune
10 be married to one Of the best cit
liens Of the county and in having
her for his helpmete Mr.. Cunning
ham was as lucky-a fact which we
know he appreciated.
She is survived by one brother,
Mr.. John W. Young, who lives in
the same section of the county.
The funeral occurred at 8 o'clock
p. m, Wednesday, the service being
conducted by her pastor, the Rev. |.
M. King, of the Lexington Circuit,
M E. Church, South, and the re-
mains were inferred in the family
burial ground beside her husband
and the children who had gone be-
fore.
The family have been good friends
to the PROGRESS editor during his
thirty-two years in Lexington and
we feel for the bereft sons deep
sympathy in the loss Of their best
earthly friend.

Our friends the enemy the Re-

met in State convention and have
nominated for the offices Of United

they havs either as leaders or in the
ranks. Granting that much to them
and, in addition, making the state
ment that there is no reason why
each Of them should not receive the
full Republican vote polled, there is
no reason why either Of them should
be given a single democratic vote
over the candidates who oppose
them, namely. Hon. X. D. Mcclellan,
for the Senate, Tom C. Rye, for Gov
ernor, and either Hon. B. A. Enloe
or Tom Walsh for Railroad commits
sioner. The republicans have SIM
ply gone back to partisan politics
and have no issue on which they
can invite democratic votes, unless,
indeed, they make calculation to
break the democratic ranks on the
woman suffrage plank, which the re-
publicans have adopted and which
we believe the democrats will re-
fuse to endorse, We are glad that

en- good men as their candidates
