GOVERNOR morrow
ACCEPTS INVITATION
TO Open OUR Fair
Governor Delighted to Accept Invita-
tion to Officially Open Mason Coun.
ty's Corn and Tobacco Fair
Thanksgiving Week.

While In FIemingsburg Monday, Col
onel J. Barbour Russell had the first
opportunity to present the request OF
the managing committee of the Mason
County Corn and Tobacco Fair to Gov
ernor Morrow that he formally open
the 1920, fair on November %.
The Governor Immediately answered
"yes" and added that it would give
great pleasure to attend the local fair
and more especially to be present and
have part in the opening of the meet
ing. The Governor will be accompan-
led to Maysville by Mrs. Morrow and
while here will be the guests Of Col.
and Mrs. ]. Barbour Russell.
With the assurance that the COVER
nor will open the fair, the managing
committee feels greatly relieved and
will proceed to complete the many
other details now before them. Ar
rangements will probably be made for
the Governor to touch a button turn
ing on the lights in the building and
he will then make an address and

SEVERAL CHANGES IN
WAREHOUSE METHODS
Local Tobacco Warehouses win Not
Sort Tobacco For Farmers This
Year = Agreement Reached.

1t Is understood that there will be
several changes in the method Of the
local looseleaf tobacco warehouses this
year. These changes seem to be gen.
eral throughout the state of Kentucky
as several of the smaller markets have
announced the same changes and for
several years the proposed changes
have been used on Lexington and al
other larger markets in the state
The principal change in methods
will be that the warehouses will not,
as in the past, furnish handlers or
sorters on the floors to handle and sort
all of the tobacco as 1t Is received In
the house from the farmers wagons.
In the future the warehousemen will
expect the growers to sort their to
bacco as 1t is brought from the farm.
This will not only save the warehouse
men much expense but will also save
much time in the handling of the
crops.
1t is understood that the warehouse
men recently reached this decision and
they will porbably announce it oifi-
cially within short time.

have been one of the best attended po-
litical meetings held in. the Fleming

nor Morrow was the speaker of the
evening. He was brought from Car
Isle by Chairman Ross, of Fleming

dinner at the home Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Hord Armstrong. Guests for dinner
were DR.. Wallingford, William Ross,
Judge Mccartney, ]. B. Russell, Jr.,
and Col. J. B. Russell, Sr. At the time
for the speaking the court house was
so filled and the entrance so crowded
that the Maysville Boys Band had to
be taken into the court house through
window. The Governors address
greatly pleased the audience and the
local band again made great hit with
the Fleming county public.

MEN IMPLICATED IN GINGER
Case IN GOVERNMENT HANDS
Federal Prohibition Officer Returns
Prisoners to COvington for an In.
vestigation Before Federal Court.

District Federal Prohibition Officer
Edward Fitzgerald, arrived here on
Monday evening and Chief of Police
Harry A. Ort turned over to him the
four men implicated in the organized
sale of ginger which was uncovered by
the police here several days ago. The
men were taken to Covington this af-
ternoon and will be taken before a
United States Commissioner for an ex-
animation. -
1t Is understood that very interest
ing developments may be expected
from the investigation the government
will likely make in these cases. Chief
Ort has decided to turn all of these
cases Of prohibition law infringement
over to the Federal authorities instead
of taking them through the local
courts under the state statute.
There are several angles to the gin
ger case now under investigation and
Chief Ort has been enabled to collect
quite number of affidavits which i'm
plicate several persons who have moi
as yet been placed under arrest. The
progress of this case will be watched
with much interest.

SALARY OF ELECTION
OFFICERS INCREASED
BY COMMISSIONERS
Mason County Fiscal Court Increases
Salary, Of Election Officers at Meet
ing TOday-Bills Are Allowed.

The monthly meeting Of the Mason
County Commissioners this morning
was very important meeting, some
business of great Importance being
disposed of by the members of the Fis-
cal Court.
Probably the most important busi-
ness transacted was the increasing Of
the salary of election and registra-
tion officers. For many years there has
been much complaint about the small
salary paid these officers. Men were
asked to lay aside their regular duties
and work all day In an election booth
for the mere sum Of two dollars, per
day. which was much less than many
Of the men made in their regular
trades and professions, So strong has
been this complaint that many men
have absolutely refused to serve as
election officers and while they could
have been forced by law, there was 70
one who would force them to serve at
an actual loss to themselves.
This matter was taken up by the
committees of both great political par
ties and the matter was referred to
the Fiscal Court with a request that
| these salaries be increased After due
consideration of the matter the COM
missioners today decided to increase
the salary of election clerks to $5 Der
day and the salary of sheriffs and
judges to $3.50 per day. The chairmen
of the Republican and Democratic
committees underworld the commits
sioners and the following order was
placed on the record books: "On mo-
tion Of the charmen of the Democratic
and Republican committees, viz, A. G.
Sulser and Clarence Mathews and
upon their agreement to refund any
amount decided by the courts as il
legal in the overpayment of election
and registration officers now and here
after, it is ordered that the pay of cleo
tion officials be fixed as follows:
Clerks IS per day and Sheriffs and
Judges $3.50 per day."
The sum of one thousand dollars
was appropriated to the Mason county
Health department to be paid by order
of the County Judge.
The following bills: were allowed
and ordered paid:
John Brisbois, jail supplies -. $1,000
