of death and undertook to take
him into his church without his
consent and in all likelihood
against his will,
He was brought to the State
House where his body lay in state
for four hours, there to be viewed
by his admirers, and then taken
to the Elks home where religious
services were held. 1t is stated
that his body will be laid in its
last resting place in a tomb hewn
in a solid rock, on the top of a
summit near the city, by the
Masonic fraternity, some time
next summer.
1t is strange indeed that these
people, who drag people into
their church, would not at least
see the man and get his consent,
rather than go when he knows
nothing about it, sprinkle a little
water on him, then make it ap-
pear to his family that they can
save him in this manner, praying
his soul out of purgatory, when
reason as well as the Holy Bible
itself is plain that no man has
that power, that God alone can
do these things.

Admiral Dewey Dead

! At $3.50 O'Clock Tuesday Jan
uary l6, came the close of the
career Of George Dewey, and the
flags Of all Nations upon all bat
tleships were lowered to hall
mast.
In the language of one OF oul
ablest writers We might say, He
is fallen, we now pause before
that splendid prodigy like some
ruined tower, whose power ter.
rifed the glance its magnifcence
attracted, grand gloomy and pc
culiar." He was the master of
the high seas, in him all that it
took to make one powerful and
far seeing, it was he that sent
the Spanish fleet to the bottom
of Manila Bay, it was he that
made our fleet victorious in the
year Of 1893. He was a student
under Faragut, and helped to run
the blockade at New Orleans and
Vicksburg, it was he that did
much to keep these United States
upon the map of the world and
the flag of this proud Nation in
the air, aud to make.it possible
that we might become and re-
main the proudest Nation under
the sun.
In his death the nation bows
with reverence, and submits to
the will Of Him that doeth all
things well; but his place will be
hard tofill. He was not a dictator
but an advisor, whose experience
and knowledge made him the
most valuable asset to our army
and navy department. Now the
question is, who will or who can
take his place?

Should Knox County
Have Two Candidates
For Circuit Judge?

This is none of our business
except as the publisher of a news
paper, it is our duty to publish
facts and items of interest to the
people.
Since the announcement of the
two capdidates for Circuit Judge
in this county, a large number OF
people have said to us, Knox
County ought to have only one
candidate, and in response to this
sentiment or wish of the people,
Eye Editor" Is venturing to give
a few observations.
First, when two persons under
take to ride the same horse one
of them must ride behind. There
is only room in the Judges chair
for one. If the two boys run on
both cannot be elected and the
two running might result in Meth
err being elected.
The one to be elected will only
fill out the uneXpired term Of
Judge Sampson. Knox County
was given the judges place for
this term without opposition,
Whitley County asked for and
received the Commonwealth At
torney's office without opposition
from Knox County. Whitley, al
ready having the Commonwealth
Attorney, now seeks to take from
US the Judge also and thus have
both officers of this Judicial Dis
trict, and while we recognize that
qualifications should be the cri-
terion, and not location, yet if
Knox County offers a man as
well qualified as Whitley and
Whitley, having the Common
wealth Attorney, we feel that
Knox County should have the
preference.
Now boys, since both of you
cannot be elected, why not settle
this between yourselves, or if
you cannot, let your friends do it
Cor you. What Knox County
wants is the strongest and best
qualified man to make this race
home opposition or a div
ision of forces.

Yes We Will Have Good
Times.

high cost of food stuff being
caused by the European war is
bosh. The blame lies on the dev-
ilish "middleman" says Wilson.
The middleman gets between us
and the low cost of living that
Wilson'S psych illogical prosperity
wave promised us and grabs it
by the tail and hikes towards the
sky. And when the grub Wilson
pledged US would come to us so
low that we would have to do our
cooking in the basement, reaches
the ultimate consumer, we have
to eat steak in an airship, milk
the cow while she is jumping
over the moon. and do our cook
ing on Mountain Range. Eggs
are so high that the old hens are
laying them on the fly. Baseball
players have quit the diamond
and gone into the egg catching
business. Beef has scared until
the railroads are now putting the
"cow-catchers' on top of their
smoke stacks. Pork is 50 cheap"
the hogs have all gone to the
trees to roost, WHERE they sing
bass in the bird choir. Potatoes
have gone up so that by next
year the farmers viii find them
growing on trees. Hotels will
soon be serving meals on the roof
to keep pace with the high cost
of living. Coal has gone so far
above the clouds that the smoke
has to be raked off the face of
the moon before it can shine.
Where once the people kept their
groceries in the ice box and pan
try, they now store them in the
safety deposit vaults of the
banks. Men able to own a doz-
en- eggs are required to pay in
come tax, and the working man,
whose raise in wages is by no
means commensurate with the
increasing cost of fax dstuffS. has
10 content himself with the assur-
ance that the middiclnan, like
SapoliO. did ii.
Now. all we nave to say is that
if the people stand for this much
longer, they deserve all that is
coming to them. If the middle |
man is solely responsible, and
Wilson says 50. then let every
man get busy and demand of his
congressman that the middleman
get from between them. Let ev-
cry conSre ssman distinctly under
stand that patty pledges must be
fulfilled.
Ii the american people would
get busy the outrageous robbery |
Of the american working people
would be stopped WiGhin forty
eight hours. There is neither
reason nor righteousness in the
present eXuroita u mold up in
american foodstuffs, and some
one with a cankered soul and an
Implying heart is to blame. And /
we say, crowd the eternal day
lights out of the guilty wretch,
whoever tits, if they have to take
a four years old elm clGb as mild |
means of persuasion to 90 so.
Just think Of the many thous-
ands of men and women of our
own proud America, who have to
continue at the same old job they
had before the raise came about,
and that to at the same rate of
wages they were receiving when
it did come, who are today living, |
or rather trying TO subsist, on the
same amount Of wages and pay
ing four times as much as
they did for what they are COM
PEELED to have to get thru life.

WONDERFUL STUFF
LIFT OUT YOUR coRNs
Apply a Few Drors Then Lift Corns
Or Calluses OF With Fingers
No Pain

No humbug! Any corn, whether
hard, soft or between the toes, will
loosen right up and lift out, without
particle of pain or soreness.
This drug is called freezone and is
a compound of ether discovered by a
Cincinnati man.
Ask at any drug store for small
bottle of freezone, which will cost
bit trife, but is sufficient to rid
ones feet of every corn or callus.
Put few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or caIlus. In
stantly the soreness disappears and
shortly the corn or carfus will loosen
and can be lifted off with the fingers
This drug freezone doesn't eat out
the corns or calluses but shrivels
them without even irritating the sur
rounding skin
Just think! No pain at all no sore
ness or smarting when applying it or
afterwards. If your druggist don't
have freezone have him order it for
you. adv
