10 Henry Caldwell Dead.

The going away of the subject of
this notice brought the deepest sor-
row to the people Of the Milltown
country, his death having occurred
last Monday afternoon at three O'Clock.
He was very industrious farmer,
man who had the respect Of every
body in the western portion of the
county. He was first taken with
measles, cold settling upon his lungs,
and he soon succumbed to the ineY-
liable. He was forty-four years old
the 18th of last March; was the second
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Levi Caldwell,
who have preceded him to the grave.
Some years ago the deceased made a
profession of his faith in Christ and
united with the Baptist Church.
The funeral was conducted Tuesday
at p. m, by Rev. o. P. Bush, in the
presence Of a large assembly. His
wife and eight children have the pro-
foundest sympathy of the entire COM
munity. May He who Idoeth all
things we'll keep them in the hollow
of His hand, is the wish of the writer.

DepOSitorS Of the Bank Of Co.
Iumbia.

Under the present Tax Law, il you
have your money in your pockets or
out Of bank on the first day of Septem-
Der, you will be taxed on it just like
other property; but if you have it in
bank on deposit the tax will be only
10 cents on the one hundred dollars.
The Bank Of Columbia expects to
and will pay this tax for allo of its Gus
toners on money deposited by them
with it and will not charge the Gus
toners for doing so. That is to say
if your money is on deposit in the
Bank of Columbia, the said bank will
pay the taxes on same and no charge
will be made against the deposition on
said money. So 1t seems to US wise In
our customers to ge5 their money in
bank in time to save themselves taxes
on same.

We are all familiar with the lines
of Thomas Gray:
Full many a gem of purest ray Sc
rene
The dark unfathomed caves of ocean
bear:
Full many a flower is born to blush IN
y seen,
And waste its sweetness on the desert
air"
We might say full many a young
man and young womanof possibilities,
in our country, is buried in the un-
fathomed caves of the ocean of time,
because they have not ever happened
to think of rising from it. Perhaps
they have thought of it, but when the
feeling arose that it would take per-
Sonal initiative they shrank from it
and travelled in the old routine. A
young man or woman might shrink
from going to school because they
would have to leave home and go
among strangers, when this is in
itself a useful lesson for life. The
sooner we learn to meet people the
sooner will we become part of the
worlds affairs. The world does not
force us to take hand in its progress,
nay rather it repels and only the
stout hearted enter.
The Lindsey Wilson Training School
Columbia, KY, is an opportunity for
boys and girls of these counties to rise
from the ordinary routine. The STU
dents come from the farm sections.
They are friendly and easy to get &C
quainted with.

Who TO Select.

The people are taking more interest
Ia the selection Of their officers than
at any time in the past, and this
speaks well for the future of the coun-
try. In the past we have had too
much politics and too little efficiency.
At the coming November election the
people will select the individual who
will manage the public affairs of the
several counties during the next four
years. All the offices are important,
and should be filed by the best quail
flied men, but the people as a whole,
are more interested in the County Su-
perintendent and the County Assessor.
The County Superintendent has gen.
eral supervision of the teachers, who
will train and direct the young minds,
and prepare the children Of to-day
for the duties Of citizenship which
must be met by them in q few years.
If they are properly trained, the next
generation will enjoy the fruits Of the
labor of the county superintendent,
but if they are not properly trained
the people will suffer. The life, the
character and the training of the
County Superintendent who serves
during the next four years, will be q
reliable sign board to the life, the
character and the training of the next
generation.
We have new tax law which must
be administered by the new assessor.
If the Assessor is a man Of Judgment,
discretion and force of character, our
property will be correctly assessed, and
the individual taxpayer will be pro-
tected when the State Tax Commits
sion reviews the assessment, but If
we have an assessor who IL not quail
flied, who Is not familiar with proper.
ty values and who Is not competent to
properly represent her people before
the State Tax Commission the people
will suffer. They will be forced to
pay more than their just proportion
of the burden of supporting the coun-
ty and State government. These two
offices are nonpolitical. The incum-
bentS are close to the people and the
people should select the individuals to
ill them who will best serve their In
terest.
