TENDENCIES TOWARD
LIBERALIZATION WILL
Be DISCUSSED HERE
Scion of Famous Old Mason County
Family win Speak TO Voters Next
Tuesday Evening at the
Court House.

Nothing could be finer than the cor
dial fellowship and high courtesy with
which the best type of Kentucky men
have received women into the elector-
ate and the splendid generosity with
which they have given of their time
and talents to aid women in their
studies of citizenship.
Locally. our women have been par
ticularly favored. Two busy men have
already freely given not only of their
time and energies, but strategy has
been necessary to prevent their paying
their own EXPENSES as they have come
to us on missions of helpfulness. and
two others, one today and another to-
morrow. are giving their assistance to
the new voters.
Tuesday evening at 7:3O at the court
house Hon. Harry B. Mackoy, of Gov
ington. will speak on some phases of
our changing government, under the
title. The Tendency Toward Federal
ization and the Reasons for 1t" We
have had two lectures on the princi-
Piles and history of the two great pO-
litical parties as their founders in the
early days understood and taught
them. But the most careless observer
must have noted the increasing ten
dency to extend the power and func-
tions of the Federal Government tC
limits that would have amazed alike
both Thomas Jefferson and Alexander
Hamilton. Mr.. Mackoy will discuss
this tendency and the reasons for it.
Mr.. Mackoy belongs TO the old his
toric group of families that made
Washington the social and intellectual
center of Mason county. His great
grandfather. Governor John Chambers
built the house which is now the home
of MIR. Lucien Maltby. At one time
Governor Chambers represented the
Ninth district in Congress and Iatel
became Governor of Iowa.
The Importance of the subject anC
the local interest in the speaker SHOULD
insure a full house Tuesday night

MARKSBEWRY' TRIAL
IS POSTPONED UNTIL
next WEDNESDAY
Most Sensational Murder Case In
Northeastern Kentucky In Years
Begins Wednesday In Bracken
County Court House.

The trial of Thomas Marksberry,
former Bracken county preacher,
charged with the murder of Jesse
Glenn. which was set for a special
term of the Bracken Circuit Court
opened this morning at Brooksville by
. Judge Newell, has been postponed
until next Wednesday. A sister of At
torney Blaine Mclaughlin, who is rep
resenting Marksberry, died yesterday
at COvington and Mr.. Mclaughlin was
therefore unable to be in attendance
at court The beginning of the trial
1 was continued on account of this death
until next Wednesday morning. There
is much interest being shown all over
4 this section in this most unusual trial.
Marksberry was not arrested for
several weeks after Glenn disappeared
strongly in his direction as the guilty
party or the party who knew more
about the mater than any other per-
son. The relatives of Glenn and the
| officials of Bracken county made an
effort to trace the missing man and
| they could only trace him to Marks
berry's home where he was last seen
Tuesday morning. The history of the
entire case is well known to all the
Public Ledger's readers. Marksberry
was brought to Maysville and placed
in Jail here for safe keeping until a
search of the farm upon which he
lived was made by Bracken county cit
liens and the trunk of Glenn's body
was found buried on the place. Fear
ing mob violence the Bracken county
authorities quickly removed Marks
berry from the Mason county Jail tC
the Covington Jail where he has been
incarcerated since.
An effort was made to procure g
change of venue for Marksberry but
Judge Newell refused the change ant
set his trial for a special term of the
Bracken Circuit Court which begar
this morning
Hon. Blaine Mclaughlin. County At
torney of Campbell county, has beer
retained by Marksberry to defend hin
while District Prosecutor B. S. Granni:
will be assisted in the prosecution by
Senator Byron, of Brooksville. The
Commonwealth will ask for the deatf
penalty and it is expected that it viii
require the greater part of two days
to complete the jury which is to be Sc
lected from a large list of men sum
moned last wek.
Alarksberry has at all times con
tended innocense and will enter a plei
of not guilty to the Indictment wheI
arraigned. His lawyers will endeavol
to show that he is innocent and merely
the victim of a series of circumstance
while the prosecution will endeavor t
show that he is guilty of one of tn,
most cruel murders in the history o
Kenucky-that of numbering one o
his best personal friends and then cut
ting his body in pieces and endeavor
ing to hide it.
The prosecution will endeavor, dur
ing the course of the trial, to fint
what became of Glenn's head ant
arms, which have never been found al
though search parties have secure,

former home very thoroughly.

In the World War the Democratic
administration paid the lowest wage
to the soldier, $50 a month and every
dollar as good as gold.
When a Democratic orator before
1860 appealed to the Constitution and
the laws and the old landmarks of
Washington and Jefferson the aboli-
ton poet James Russell Lowell sang
a new song of progress in the nation:
New occasions teach new duties;
Time makes ancient good uncouth.
They must Upward still and onward,
Who would keep abreast with Truth;
Lo, before us CLEAN the camp fires!
We ourselves must Pilgrims be,
Launch our May1ower and steer boldly
Through the desperate winter sea,
Nor attempt the Futures portal,
With the Past's bloodrusted key"
The leaders on the stage of action
proved themselves the greatest and
most successful in their age.

Following a week of hurry-possibly
of worry-or struggle with the many
sided problems and difficulties that
face US all, surely it's good for us to
begin the first day of the new week by
attending at least one service in
Church. No one else suffers the loss
of anything by going to Church and it
is almost sure to stir up our best de-
sire and nourish us all. Into the soul
of the mar who has been to Church
there quietly steals a certain
thing of peace Is well as strength, a
certain contentment as well as conf
dence and a joy in the love of God and
the love of ones friends and neigh
bors that no language can picture.
Tell others about the truth. Hunt
your brother. Tell him you love him.
Bring him to Church with you next
Sunday. He will love the beauty of
the Church and the dignity of the SER
vice. The singing of the old chants
Bring him to Church with you next
Sunday. He will love the beauty of
the Church and the dignity of the SER
wise. The singing of the old chants
and hymns will fill the soul with glad
ness.
To The Men
Join the Service Club for increased
attendance at the Sunday morning and
evening services. Watch the chart in
the rear of the Church.
Join the Everyman's club. DR.. Alt
house, a gifted educator and magnetic
speaker will be our guest. You will
receive due notice of the October meet
ing. Join a Bible class. Get busy for
Cod md for your souls good. You
need it. We all need it.
To The Women
Join the Parish Guild Of faithful
women Every Wednesday you will
find them sewing for the less favored
folks of God in the distant places and
at home.
To All
Be on the lookout for the Bishop
coming to consecrate the Church and
to administer the Rite of Confirmation:
Confirmation is really a confession OF
our allegiance to Jesus Christ. Come,

CHRISTMAS TRADE
 SLOW IN STARTING

The general depression of business has delayed the start of the holiday trade in Conway, according to local merchants, and Christmas shopping this year will begin several days late. The two days of this week have shown less business of this nature than last week, one merchant said, and the gen. eral trend seems to be to postpone the annual rush. Inclusive of today, 21 days remain before Christmas.
 Business people here do not anti cipate any considerable decline in the volume of holiday trade as stocks bought are fully as large as usual. The late start probably will result in a large volume of business for the last few days before the close.
