Is CALLED
Mrs. Hayden n. Salyer Dies at Her
Home Near Camargo Saturday
Night

Mrs. Narcissus Salyer, wife of Mr..
Hayden II. Salyer, died at her home
near Camargo last Saturday night.
She had been a great sufferer all her
life and her death was the result of
a complication of diseases. Though
her illness was lingering her death
came as great shock to the anxious
loved ones who watched by her
bedside.
She was born in Morgan county,
and was sixty-fve years old at the
time of her death. She was mar
ried to Hayden B. Salyer September
10, 1875.
She was a member of the Syca-
more Christian church and was ac-
tive in church work all her life and
ready to help at all times.
Mrs. Salyer is survived by her
husband and three sons, Bruce,
Claude and Ellis, all of this county.
The funeral services were held
Monday afternoon at three o'clock
by the Rev. Clyde Darsie, assisted
nv tho Row Jamnc Davis and tho
remains were laid to rest in the
family burial ground near the home.
This good woman's death will be
greatly mourned by all her friends
and relatives to whom she was al
ways a constant helper and loving
mother.
The Advocate extends sympathy
to the bereaved family.

MRS. PLANCK DIES

Mrs. Paulina Planck, wife Of
Mr. Jack Planck, died at her home
on Sycamore street last Tuesday
morning. Mrs. Planck was loved
by all who knew her. She moved
about in her quiet, unassuming way,
serving and helping those less for
tunate than herself and was never
happier than when giving aid to
someone. She was a member of the
Christian church and although I'M
able to attend frequently on account
of i'll health she was a devout Christ
ian and great worker. She had
been in poor health for several
years but was a patient sufferer,
never complaining but always cheer
full and considerate of the ones
around her. She was woman Of
whom it may be said: ''None knew
her but to love her, Nor named her
but to praise"
She was ffty-three years old at
the time Of her death. Before her
marriage she was Miss Paulina Tapp.
She is survived by her husband, one
daughter, Mrs. Wilson Broadus, and
one grandchild of Covington; three
sisters, Mrs. Oscar Baird, of this
city; Mrs. W. S. Dunn, of Clark
county; Mrs. Toliver Vice, Win
chester, and three brothers, Mr..
E. N. Tapp, of Kingsbury, Idaho;
Mr.. Chas. Tapp, Richmond; Mr. w.
T. Tapp, Winchester The funeral
was preached Wednesday afternoon
by Rev. J. w. Harding, of Win
chester. The body was laid to rest
in Machpelah. Quite a number from
distance attended the funeral of
this lovely woman whose death will
be a distinct loss to the community.

DIES AT
INDIANAPOLIS
Mr.. J. Laurence White, Assistant
State Treasurer, Dies at In
diana Hospital.

Friends here we're grieved to
learn this morning that Mr.. j..

ant State Treasurer of Kentucky,

lis, Ind, where he has been for
treatment for several weeks. De-
ceased had been in failing health
for more than a year and in spite
OF all that medical aid and skill
could do he graduallf grew weaker
until the end came this morning at
one o'clock.
Mr.. White was born September 2,
1870. and lived in this city and
county most off his life. lie was a
man with a ? quiet and dignifed
mien and by his manly bearing and
courteous ways was readily recog-
nized as the true gentleman that he
was by all who came in contact
with him. He was very popular
and numbered his friends by his
acquaintance. The trust and con-
fidence that his fellow citizens placed
in him is shown by the many Of
fees and positions of trust they
gave to him. He was splendid
poblic servant and eminent author
tiles pronounce him to have been the
best man that ever filled the place
which he held at the time Of his
death.
He had been in i'll health for sew
eral months but bore his intense
suffering with true Christian forti-
tude, realizing his condition yet be-
ing brave and cheerful for the
sake of his loved ones. Mr.. White
was a member of the Presbyterian
church.

BEST FAIR
EVER HELD
Finest Racing Program Ever Seen
at a Country Fair Given Here
Last Week.

We have heard a large number
of people compliment the Mont
gomery County Fair, which closed
here last Saturday, and especially
the racing program, which was con-
ceded to be the finest one ever wit
messed at a country fair in this sec
ton of the State. No expense had
been spared and every race saw
quite q number of horses striving
for the purses. Mr.. Nat Young, Jr.,
was the most fortunate owner as
he started horses in two races and
won them both. We know of no
other owner that won over one race.
The Floral Hall was visited by large
crowds who enjoyed looking at the
splendid display there. A complete
list as furnished us by Mrs. W. II.
Wood of the prize winners will be
found on another page of this paper.
The fair board will meet shortly
and it will then be decided whether
or not there will be fair here next
year. We urge the people to get
behind the fair board and help
them in building up the association.
1t would be an excellent idea to
have a display of farm products,
etc, and get the interest of the
country people aroused in the fair
for with their help and cooperation
we are sure the Montgomery County
Fair can be made grand success.
Secretary W. Hoffman Wood and
the whole board deserve credit for
the excellent manner in which the
fair was managed and we again
urge the people to get behind them
and boost the institution that will
be of great benefit to us all if we
will but do our part to make it a
success. We are willing, are you?

To the Democrats of Montgomery:

1t has come to my knowledge
that reports have been circulated
in various parts Of this county to
the effect that | will withdraw or
quit the race for the nomination for
Sheriff. The report is untrue. l
have no intention of quitting; Mr..
Barnes and Mr.. Fortune and l will
stay in the race until we win or
are beaten.
have strong hope that the Dem
ocracy of this my native county will
endorse a candidate for this impor-
tant Office who has no alliance with
any faction or clique, who is run
ming his own race and leaving all
other races alone, and who viii not
corrupt single voter or violate the
law in any particular to win. On
these principles, l again solicit
your support.
The false report that / will with
draw must have been started by
some one to further his own inter-
ests and injure me.
