Civic Pride.

Ii there is any one thing that
impresses us more than another
as we travel over this great coun-
try of ours it is civic pride that is
every where manifest.
Go north, south. east, or west
and on all sides is seen improve
ment in the homes; streets, and
roads. A few years ago one
saw slovenly houses and on all
hands the signs of dirt ragged,
dingy, conditions.
- But now what a change! The
towns and villages look clean and
beautiful. The streets are trim
and smooth. The weeds are cut
and whitewash is freely used.
Flowers are not only in the
front yards but in the back yards
Court house squares and little
parks are made pretty by a little
attactive fermentation. Homes
and out houses are painted in
some tastful colors. The imprs-
sion made upon strangers and all
is heartening and cheerful. All
looks prosperous and thrifty.
This is brought about by clubs of
various kinds and by a general
spirit of respectability and decen-

kremer an Efficient Secretary.
Fontaine T. Kremer, who was elect
ed Kentucky State Fair secretary at
the beginning Of the present year upon
the lamented death Of former Secre-
tary W. ]. Gooch, while newly vested
with secretarial title and dignities, Ia
by no means a novice In secretarial
experience. having been the power be-
hind" preceding Kentucky State Fair
secretaries for the past eight ysars In
the comparatively -inconspicuous but
immensely important post Of active
manager and director Of finances for
the entire vast institution.
To the lay mind the magnitude OF
this undertaking is impossible of con-
ception, and only those concerned In
the maelstrom Of detail, infinitude Of
demands and urgency of action surg
ing around the operative forces Of the
Fair can grasp the significance of this
experience. AS no man occupies a dis
tinctive position without a training
which has consciously or unconscious
ly fitted him for the duties of his post,
so Mr.. Kremer's entire career has been
one Of preparation for the brilliant and
efficient handling Of the task before
him. In his early manhood he saw
long service In important positions
with the Louisville and Nashville rail-
road general offices and with the law
and equity division of the Jefferson
circuit court, thereby absorbing grasp
Of detail, knowledge of law and famil-
iarlty with finance which grounded him
well in knowledge vital to the handling
OF the Fair. In fact, It was this un-
usual all round ability, demonstrated
year after year to the state board of
agriculture, that prompted Mr.. Kre-
mer's election by the board as secre-
tary to the Fair. To the agricultural
element his selection was eminently
satisfying from the fact that Mr.. Kre-
mer has been a practical farmer for
the past twelve years, owning and at
present residing upon and actively op.
Grating at Shively, KY, one Of the prct-
tiest and most prosperous farms in the
state.

Tonight the final arrangements
of all the candidates will be made,
the money that is to besmerch
the name and character of the
men who shall march to the polls
to name the nominees of the vari-
Gus parties to be voted for at the
November election will be divid-
ed and sub-divided to reach the
fellow who wants to sell his birth
right and blacken his soul. The
battle will start in the morning
at 6 O'Clock and lasts until 4p. m.
and at nine tomorrow night the
fellows will know their doom.
The better element of the citi-
zens have already made up their
minds for whom they will vote,
it is only those that are looking
for the almighty dollar that has
not fully made up his mind, so it
is that these fellows will have to
be seen on tomorrow to have
some one "fixthings so that they
can see how to vote"
The time is again it seems, that
it is only matter of who has the
most money when it comes to
running for office. We have it
that there is something between
$6.000.0O and 100000 already
to be distributed tonight, and
these same fellows who pose as
good citizens and who are seeking
the nomination, at the hands of
the great Republican party and
claim that they are good citizens
and that they will execute the
laws as they are written, and in
order to do so they are going
fourth violating the laws of the
state in the most fragrant way
possible. Will the people stand
for this longer, will they not rise
up at the September term of the
Court and ask the Grand Jury to
right the wrong done by the fell
low who would buy his way into
office? The time has come when
the nation needs real men, they
need men who stand for some
thing, and the man that will get
into a polictical fight and buy his
into Office should not be permitted
to qualify and assume the duties
of that Office. Every mans hould
run his race on his own merits,
and such thing as ring and COM
binations should be busted"
and discountenanced.
We do not know what the court
will say in this respect, but we
do say that if he will teach these
fellows a Lesson that ne will have
the support of all good citizens.

was trying to see how it can add
to the charm of the town. =
And this leads us to say a word
about our own town with regard
to the matters of Civic Pride.
We must keep up with the pro-
cession of progressive towns of
the state. After all it is a ques-
ton of progress and respectable
ty. What does a man care for
others when he allows his own
home and the premise over which
he has charge to look ugly
and out of all chara cter? What
does a man care for his town or
his neighbor when he has his
place full of weeds and the street
in front of his house ragged and
unsightly? One family can give
the whole town a lot of shame
and disgrace.
See that old dilapidated fence
in a conspicuous place on a nice
street in front of a beautiful home.
1t spoils the whole neighborhood.
The said fence does not keep out
stock, it is falling down, but there
it must remain to the disgust OF
all. Some people can impose on
their neighbors by letting their
chickens wander over their gar
dens and they car see L them
selves day after day and never
turn a wheel to stop the Internal
bother. Such people are a kind
of sore on the town, they do not
care one cent what trouble they
cause others. some others will
let filth collect about their places
until it is the talk of all within
five squares and never do a thing
except to throw out more slop
and garbage and add to the nuis-
ance a little more every day. Talk
about officers looking after all
such is like looking for the ten
lost tribes, Some say they have
been found and others say not.
Some people show their con-
sideration for others and their
love for a pleasant community
life by the way they let their dogs
and cats annoy their neighbors
day and night by their bowls and
getting into gardens and every
thing of interest to them. Why
not stop all such ways and live
for the pleasure of others and
quit being such blankety blank
bumptious bother to the people
who have some desire to build
the town up to the best standard
of beauty and attractiveness. Let
all cut out those weeds on your
street and over your entire place.
Do not be so afraid you will clean
up a little more than your part.
1t would be a fine example to the
the next fellow if you show a
free spirit in this way.
Old ramshackle building s
should not be allowed to digrace
the community and render un-
slightly the town, vacant lots
should be looked after and cared
for. 1t is not right to those in
the ABIDING property to have that
ragged, weedy lot filled W i t h
brush and refuse and old tin cans
just because you do not live close
to it yourself. The town is suffer-
ing for it. We go to church once
in while, and some time ago we
heard text like this, Let each
try to please his neighbor," and
we thought it was better for a
sermon than the one the preacher
took for his discourse. Where is
that in the Bible, anyhow? 1t is
too good to let it stay in it and
not use it a little more, we ought
to get it out and brush it up and
put it up over every door in this
town. Make it unpopular for
anybody to have anything in the
town which is mean for the town.

COLE BROS. ANIMAL SHOW
A Real Trained Animal Show With
Features Too Numerous to Mention.

Features Too Numerous to Mention.
Cole Bros. Trained Wild Anima
Show will exhibit at Emmett on Fri
day, July Is, rain or shine.
| There is a fascination about tent
ed show that appeals to everybody. In
our childhood days the blare of the
band, the gaudily painted wagons, the
animals, the funny clowns left an i'm
preston on the mind that remained
there as long as life lasts.
Cole Bros. Trained Wild Animal
Show is an old institution, that has
pleased many people for many years.
This year it comes to us, bigger,
grander than ever. Bringing with its
galaxy of beauty costumed male and
female performers, wild and domestic
animals of all species, gathered from
all parts of the world. Clowns, those
merry fun makers, which we enjoyeS
so immensely when we were "kids",
yes Cole Bros. have forty of them
headed by the premier of them all,
Chas. f. Post.
1t is worth any mans time to come
for miles to see Trained Cheerful
Gardner and his group of wonderfully
trained elephants. These large
clumsy beasts do all kinds of stunts,
play baseball, serenade on band instru-
ments and engage in drills and gym
nastics. Myrtle" the largest one of
the group, does the oriental dance and
never fails to draw the plaudits of
the audience.
Aerial bar, ground and novelty acts
are interspersed among the many
animal features that can be seen only |
with Cole Bros. Trained Wild Animal
Show
Among the many European novelty |
acts, none surpass the wonderful per-
Torrance of the Marvellous Japanese
artists. The Mizunos Troupe and the
Troupe, French wire walking
artists.
