REVIVAL CLOSES AT
METHODIST CHURCH

The Methodist revival, which had
been running for two weeks, came to
a close Sunday evening. Presiding
Elder Butts holding the interest un-
till the last, as evidence of which a
record crowd attended Sunday eve
ming, taxing the building to seat the
audience.
There were fourteen conversions
and a large number of reclamations
as result of the meeting. Seven
were received into the church Sunday
evening.
Rev. and Mrs. G. T. Sellars, of Ben
ton, KY, led in the singing and did it
in a very acceptable manner. They
are fine people and their presence
was blessing to the church and COM
munity.
Probably the most important SER
vice held was the mems meeting
Sunday afternoon. Some of the
evils Of the town were discussed and
more than fifty men went on record
as being opposed to pool rooms, and
petitioned the representatives to the
Legislature to make provisions for
the passage of a bill to remove the
pool rooms from the town and county.
Also the city authorities were petit
toned to enforce the Sunday closing
laws, and the cigarette laws which
are being flagrantly and openly vio-
lated. The citizens of the town are
called upon to assist in enforcing the
laws by upholding those who are at
tempting to enforce them, and giving
evidence where needed.
There is no reason why Lexington
shouldn't be the best town in West
Tennessee and il each one will do his
part it will be. :"

A NEW GERMAN INVASION.

1t appears from the newspapers
that band of political raiders from
Memphis, headed by one "Von Abe
Waldauer," is making a campaign
drive through this congressional dis
trict telling the Democrats to vote
for Captain Gordon Browning in the
Primary. This is true political Prus-
sianism. This is an invasion of our
district by the political "shock
troops" from Memphis.
This "von Waldauer," with an un-
pronounceable, un-Americanized name
but with unexampled cheek and gall,
assumes that the Democrats of our
district are too ignoran. to know who
to nominate for Congress. This in
vasion from the outside ought to be
resented by all self-respecting men.
II any Democrat running for Con-
gress in this district cannot be nomi-
mated without the aid of an invading
band Of political Hessians, he ought
to be defeated.

$4,000 TO IMPROVE
SCHOOL BUILDING

The people Of Lexington met In
mass meeting in the. Circuit court
room last Monday afternoon and
unanimously voted to ask Governor
Roberts to include in his call for
IIair extra session Of the legislature, tu
convene August 9th, the right for
Lexington to issue bonds not to ex-
ceed Twenty Thousand Dollars for
improvement Of the city school
building.
There was discussion and when the
question was submitted there was not
vote against it.
Representative A. s. Montgomery
was also instructed to take steps to
reduce the highway tax minimum 20
twenty cents under the new assess
ment, and further to secure in the ex-
ira session the right to relieve the
County Court of issuing $4,000 high
school warrants by issuing bonds in
stead. 1t will be remembered that
the County Court came to the rescue
CT the high school building situation
by voting to issue warrants, tempor-
ariiy, to supplement the bonds voted
to construct and equip the high school
building, which sum was seen to in
adequate. Representative Montgom-
cry had to get the bond issue matter
and other matters to the Governor by
last Tuesday, in order to be included
in the call for the extra session.

ROY BAILEY KILLS
HENDERSON McPEAKE.

Last Tuesday afternoon, near the
home of Henderson McPeake, three
miles South of Lexington, Henderson
McPeake was shot and killed by Roy
Bailey. It seems from the general
|accopnt. that Roy~B Baiapt = is-fsthes3
Amos Bailey, Mrs. Amos Bailey, and
a son and daughter of Amos Bailey
and wife, and Bob Fuller, who lives
with Amos Bailey, were together,
working in timber near the home of
Henderson McPeake, who came out
and dispute arose over the line be-
tween the McPeake and Bailey lands,
with the result that Roy Bailey shot
with a pistol and killed Henderson
McPeake the bullet taking effect in
or very near the heart. Sheriff W..
r. Wright was called and at once
went to the scene Of the tragedy,
finding that Roy had made his get
away. The officer took Amos Bailey
in charge, brought him to Lexington
and he gave bond in the sum of $2,5O0
for his appearance on Friday of this
week before Esq. H. E. Graper. Nc
Peake was perhape 40 years old and
leaves a wife and six children. Roy
Bailey is younger and has wife and
four children.
The affair is a most regretable one
and its outcome will be watched with
keen interest, as the killing was wit
messed by no one except the Bailey
crowd enumerated above.
Rob Bailey came to Lexington
Wednesday afternoon and was re-
quired to give a $4,000 bond, which
he made.

RAILROAD EMPLOYEES
GET SUBSTANTIAL RAISE

The report of the Board raised the
wages of railroad employees an aver
age of 21 per cent. or total of six
hundred hundred million dollars to
be distributed among the workers in
the United States. Wednesdays pa
pers said that there may be referen-
DUN vote whether the men would ac-
cept the raise offered or go on a
strike. The q per cent. gives raise
of a little over one-fifth of the wages
paid prior to May 1, 1920, and the
raise is retroactive to that time. In
our next issue we will give more de-
tailed account of the offered raise
and to what extent per day or month
it affects the various workers. The
Railroad Labor Board says that
