''RADS" HAND
"DAVY" LEMON
Jealousy of C. o. p. Leaders In
Other Counties Causes Defeat of
Life Long Party Worker.

One of the surprises of the pri-
mary election, Saturday, if there
were many, was the defeat of DR.. R.
L. Dawson, of this city, for the re-
publican nomination for congress in
this districe. Returns from the re-
publican primary were hard to get
hold of, and the vote was very
light. The republican voters have
not yet gotten fully acquainted with
the primary system of making nomi-
nations.
Incomplete returns from all of the
counties of the Eighth district in
dictate that L. Tom Neat, of Adair
county, defeated DR.. Dawson by sew
eral hundred majority. The fact that
DR.. Dawson and his friends in the
Eighth district were among the first
to get into the Hughes bandwagon
lead many to expect that the Hughes
machine in the district headed by
Ludlow Petty, of Shelbyville, would
put it over" for Dawson. Petty did
carry his home county Of Shelby for
Dawson but only a couple, of hun
dred republican votes were cast in
Shelby, and Neat went to Shelby and
Spencer county with something like
1000 majority when the returns be-
gan coming in.
Republican leaders over the dis
trict who were undoubtedly jealous
of the prominence of DR.. Dawson
and his friends have taken in affairs
of the G. o. P. in the district, went
after Dawson with keen edged knife
and slipped it into his ribs, ''good
and proper" Perhaps they think
they can win with Neat in Nov
ember, but that's another story. DIR.
Dawson and his friends are not apt
to forget for many moons the man.
ner in which his long and faithful
service in fighting the battles of his
party against tremendous odds, has
been rewarded.
DR.. Dawson carried his home
county here by $50 majority while
his opponent carried his home county
of Adair by $50. The Wiseman-
Butler machine rolled up big maj
ority against Dawson in Boyle,
while the Lincoln county man car
ried Garrard, where he was expected
to un strong by only a few votes.
The full vote in this race will have
to be given later, as figures in it,
while conclusive as to the result
are unofficial and scarce.

Helm Should Go Higher, Says
Advocate

The Danville Advocate, which has
been a consistent opponent of Con-
gresham Helm for several years, in
its issue Monday had this of interest
in connection with his victory:
Congressman Harvey Helm de-
feated Charles F. Montgomery in the
primary for the Democratic nomina-
ton for Congress last Saturday by
a majority of 5,671 votes. Helm
carried every county in the district
save Casey, the home county of
Montgomery. Congressman Helm is
a general favorite among the people,
and his friends say that he should
make the race for United States Sen
ator or Governor. AS a campaigner
he has few equals in the Common
wealth. 1t goes without saying that
he can stay in Congress as long as he
wishes. He will be renominated next
time without opposition. We do not
believe that there is a man in the
Eighth district who will ever again
tackle him. The Advocate is for
Helm henceforth, as on two acca-
sions the voters have shown that
they are for MIN by an overwhelming
majority. Senator Montgomery is
one OF the best Democrats in the
district. He is a heightened gentle
man. He has been the dry leader in
two legislatures and has the good
will of the dry people who compose
a large majority of the voters of this
district, but even with that strength
he could make no Roadway. A very
large number of democrats are free
ly expressing themselves that Helm
is too big a man for Congress and
that he should be elevated 70 some
higher field of usefulness"

SPLENDID CITIZEN COLE
Alfred Davis Passes Away At Rip.
Old Age in East End.

Lincoln county lost a good fitizen
when the spirit of Mr.. Alfred Davis
took its flight to mansions ab,ve at
noon Sunday. For almost all of his
long life of IS years he had been
identified with the people Of Crab
Orchard section and he wasloved
and honored by them all. flr the
past several years Mr.. DAVIS had
been in feeble health, but no. until
the last few weeks did his condition
grow so serious. Dropsy and other
troubles were too much for hi; frail
body and the end came sooneH than
was expected. The y burial took
place in Crab Orchard CemetJry at
1890 Monday morning when a
great crowd of friends and loved
ones gathered to pay their respects
to their neighbor and friend ofmany
years. Ed. Jasper G. Livingston
preached an appropriate funeril SER
mon. Mr. Davis had been member
of the Christian church practically
all of his life. He is survived Ey one
child, Mrs. Maggie Cover, and two
grandsons, Wallace Cover nd Shirley
Cover, and in their loss they have
the unbounded sympathy of their
many friends. Mr.. Davis wife died
when Mrs. Cover was less than a
month old and she was raised by the
fond father whose devotion to her
was beautiful. 1t was fully reeipro-
Gated, however, and the two were
most companionable. Mr.. Davis is
also survived by a sister, Mrs. Sara
E. Carter, Of Rowland.

HELM GALLOPS
UNDER WIRE
Race for Congressional Nomination
In Eighth Proves Walkover for
Lincoln County Man.

The democratic race for Congress
in the Eighth district was really no
race. Congressman Harvey Helm
was renominated by the democrats
by over $500 majority over Senator
Charles F. Montgomery. Helm car
ried every county in the district eX-
cept his opponents home county of
Casey, and this only went 81 major
ity for Montgomery.
A very light vote was cast in the
democratic primary all over the dis
trict, probably about so per cent of
the normal vote. For several weeks
it had been apparent that Montgom-
cry had no chance, and in most of
thu counties of the district his
friends made no efforts whatever,
having neither money nor organiza-
ton, with both of which his opposi-
ton was well provided. Lincoln
county was probably the only coun-
ty of the district in which vote
near normal was polled, and this was
gresham Helms friends were deter
largely due to the fact that Con-
mined that he should carry his home
county by a large majority.
The election passed off quietly all
over the district. The result seems
to have been accepted in good spirit
by all, and those who were strongest
in their opposition to Helm before
the primary are now vieing with
each other in assurances of loyalty
and support for him and the entire
democratic ticket in November.
The majorities rolled up by Helm
in the counties of the Eighth dis
trict, are unoficially as follows:

SOME ELECTION NOTES

A woman has been nominated by
the democrats of the First congress
ional district of Kansas, for con-
gress.
The race for the republican NOM
ination for Judge of the Court of
Appeals in the Seventh or mountain
district, is close between Judge
Elem d. Sampson, of Barbourville,
and Judge A. j. Kirk, of Pike .coun-
ty, with the chances seem to be ia
yoring Kirk. Several other leading
republicans of the mountains were
also rams. The district is overwhel-
mingly republican.
The former Bull Moosers obtain
ed control of the republican organi-
zation in Louisville by nominating
w. C. Owens for congress over DR..
Ryans and DIR. Bruner. Owens, who
made the famous race as democrat
against W. C. p. Breckenridge years
ago, will be the republican nominee
against Swager Sherley and seems
to have no chance to win in the final.
Vice President Marshall will prob
ably make the chief address at the
opening of the democratic state cam
paign in Winchester, Sept. 9th.
Congressman Campbell Cantrill
was renominated by the democrats
of the 9TH district over R. E. L.
Murphy, a young Lexington lawyer
and formerly of Garrard county, by
5000 majority.
w. ]. Fields, congressman from
the 9Th, was renominated over
Judge John w. Riley of Rowan coun-
ty by a big majority.
John p. Haswell, won the republi-
can nomination for congress in the
4th district and George P. Thomas
in the LIST. The RAIDS have nominees
in every congressional district this
YEAR, and seem to think they have
a chance to carry Kentucky.

BIG FIRE LOSS
AT MCKINNEY.
Hotel, Livery Stable, Stoe and D. S.
Rifles Residence Wiped Out by
Flames Sunday Night.

Mckinney, eight miles southwest
of Stanford, and one of the most
thriving little communities on the
@. & c. railroad, was visited by a
destructive conf1agration about 10
o'clock Sunday night, which wiped
out the Mckinney hotel, the Mean
inch livery stable, Masters & Bow
years general merchandise store, and
the residence of u. s. Rife. TIE
loss is very heavy one, reaching in
to thousands of dollars. 1t is under
stood that the only insurance car
ried was S1,750 on the hotel build
ing carried by the Messrs. MAninch,
who bought it a short time ago from
Masters & Bowyer. The hotel was
being operated by George Lay and
wife
The fire is reported to have start
ed in the livery stable, and to have
been caused by lantern being over
turned near a barrel of gasoline.
This building was soon a mass of
flames, and as there is no water
works system or means OF fire pro-
lection in the town, the adjoining
buildings soon caught fire also, and
it was then just a question of how
we'll the scope of the fire could be
limited. Several buggies were burn
ed in the stable, but all the horses
were gotten out safely. A eonsid-
cradle amount of furniture was also
taken out of the hotel before the
flames licked it up, and Mr.. Rife
saved most of his furniture and
household effects.
G.. H. Masters, who operates liv-
cry stable in Stanford and makes
this city his home now, was in bed,
when awakened by a phone call,
which briefly told him that his store
was afire. He jumped into his
clothes and broke many speed rec
ords in his car getting to the scene.
He and his partner, Mr.. Bowyer had
planned to move their stock of goods
to Stanford at an early date and
open a store here, and had let insur-
ance on the goods while in McKin-
ney, expire, so that their loss is
probably a couple of thousand do
lars. He says that he saved about
third of the stock of the store.
This was brought 90 Stanford and
placed in the old State Bank store
room, where Mr.. Masters will prob
ably open for business shortly.
The good people of Mckinney
turned out en- masse and did every
thing they could to save property
and prevent spread of the flames.
Had it not been for their hard work,
it is probable that the entire village
would have been wiped out.
