Mr.. Faulkner is a man we'll

Too Much Moonshine

The usual excursion from Gin
cinnati to Natural Bridge Sunday
carried many passengers, but
their stay was greatly disturbed
by some drunken men on the
ground. They secured their liz.
uor, it is claimed, from bootleg.
gers, and possibly moonshine.
Several were arrested and plac-
ed in Stanton Jail. Two made a
getaway while officers were at.
tempting to hustle them on the
train.
For at least q time, there will
be no more Sunday excursions to
Natural Bridge, we learn. Not
altogether however on account
of the order maintained but on
account of alleged shortage of
passenger coaches.

Plenty Of Wheat in Sight.

June 1st, the estimate for wheat
in the United States is placed at
656, 100000 bushels; the final es.
innate last year was $50, ,SS6, 900
bushels or l6, ia, 900 less than the
crop is expected to be this year.
Government agents have told us
before that there would be plen-
ty of old wheat to do until .he
new crop comes in, and then some
left, so there need be no fear of
a shortage of flour this year. OF
course it will be short in many
homes because they will be un.
able TO pay the spectators pro.
fit; but then, what's the use to
have a war unless it bOgs pro.
fit to somebody?

Decrease in Assessment

The courts have decided that
railroads cannot be compelled to
pay tax on more thar go per cent
of it's real value. This meSs a
loss of several thousand dollars
to Kentucky in taxes each year.
Such decisions in favor of big
corporations naturally make men
who are required to pay tax on
their property at 100 cents to the
dollar, little bit sore at the
Government which alone can be
extremely popular wSh the fair
minded by giving all the people
a square deal. This they are
not Row getting. -

Saw Mill Closes Down

The Brodhead-Garrett Compa-
ny has closed down its saw mill
at this place for good. This is
very unexpected news, since they
made extensive improvements
at the mill this spring. So much
trou ble in getting logs shipped
by rail, and the fact that the
Company has another large mill
at NADIA which can now do all
the saving, has persuaded them
to ship the logs coming by rail to
the NADIA mill.
The planning mill will continue
to run. Lum ber will be shipped
in TO keep it steadily going.

Valuable Road Work

The work done to the Hard.
wick's Greek road by the people
not the county--has been of in.
estimable value. Several vitri.
fed culverts have been put in,
and wherever this has been done
and the road properly ditched
and crowned, it has renamed
dry during all the rainy weather
of the past two weeks or more.
This demonstrates one thing,
that our roads can be kept good
during the spring, summer and
fall seasons by putting them in
proper condition and keeping
them that way. 1t has been dem.
onstrated with equal force that
the people of the county have
got TO do this themselves, regard
less of the thousands of road tan
they pay. In other words, we
have learned that while We may
pay tax for good roads we can
only get them by building them
ourselN and paying for them
additional.

What Powell County Needs

Down In Trigg county the
farmers formed an organization
and pooled their wool. They
sold all in a bunch to one dealer
at "a cents per pound, which is

Harrison has been making efforts
to have the Powell county farm

The large OIL suit Oh WINNER"
S. Raydure VS.. Joel Mckinney
heirs, seeking to quiet title to l72
acres of very rich oil land now
held by Raydure through the
lease of the land by other parties,
has been set for trial IN the Es-
till Circuit Court, Tuesday, June
19th. The land IN question is
boundary lying about one mile
from. the noted Cottage Furnace
tract formerly owned by Joel Nc
Kinney heirs and sold bv them
to S. M. Mapel at Commissioners
Sale in December ten years ago.
J~F. KcKinney, oldest son and
executor of the Joel Mckinney
estate, brought suit to have this
land sold at Commissioners Sale,
there being infant heirs. AT his
reduest the Court had survey
made of the land, that bidders
might know "precisely where
the land lay that was to be sold"
This 172 acres being off from the
other Furnace land, was not sur
veyed nor EN- mbraced in the origi-
nal SUIT to sell, and it seems clear
that 1t was Intentionally so left
out. j. +. Mckinney died before
the land was sold, and his posi-
tion was filed by J. w. McKin-
ney, the next Oldest son,who had
the land sold. After the sale,
not knowing that the l12 acres
was not included in the Commits
sioner's deed to the land, Mr..
Mckinney Ourrendercd posses.
sion of the land by mistake to s.
M. Maple, who bought the Cot
tage Furnace land and who also
thought it was in the survey and
the deed.
But few Of the heirs knew any.
thing about the land sold and
made no investigation, thinking
only the land sold and decided
away had been conveyed. But
when land in this section became
worth thousands Of dollars per
acre, an investigation found this
land vet unsold and in the pos.
session of others. Suit was
bought by Mr.. Raydure against
the heirs last December to quiet
the title
This land now has nineteen
producing wells on it, with aver
age outflow of 100 barrels of oil
per day for each well now worth
1920 per barrel. There is room
for at least ten more wells. The
property is said to be worth Two
Million Dollars. Pendleton d
Bush, the well. known law firm of
Winchester, are attorneys for the
heirs, and Judge Hugh Riddell,
the noted Irvine attorney and Ju-
rist, is chief counsel for Radure.
Mrs. q. q. Daniel, Mrs. Belle
Burgher, Mrs. Emma Mountz,
Mrs. J. 4. Burgher, Mr.. Jeflie

ney, arethe heirs in Powell coun

This is, so far, the largest suit
over oil leases to Ire tried out,
and it is creating unusual inter
