FAITHFUL REPRESENTATIVE

Hon. T. L. Caudell passed through
here Friday from Frankfort to his
home in Frenchburg. His absence
from his post is due to the fact that
Mrs. Caudell lis sick at their home.
Mr.. Caudell is looking fine and his
record at Frankfort is certainly a
most creditable one. The bills Of
fered have been in the interest of the
masses, and on all questions his vote
has been cast after close study. If
the State was fully represented by
such men as Judge Caudell the pub
lie could sleep with the assurance
that az the works of the Kentucky
legislature would be for the good
and uplift of the State.

FARMERS TO ORGANIZE

AT the request Of a number Of the
best farmers Of Montgomery county
| have invited Mr.. E. L. Harrison, Of
Lexington, President of the Farmers
Educational and Cooperative Union
of America for the State of Ken
lucky, to address the farmers at the
County Court House on Saturday,
March 18th at one o'clock P. M. Do
not forget to comet
There are several farmers organic
cations in Kentucky but we felt that
the Farmers Union was best for this
community due to the fact that it is
largely represented in Virginia,
North Carolina and South Carolina,
and particularly strong in the bright
tobacco belt of the three states. The
Farmers Union is also very strong
in Kentucky. So we thought it best
to organize with the farmers who
are directly interested in tobacco.
Mr.. Harrison is an excellent
speaker and will certainly be enter
tanning as well as instructive. There
will be other speakers present. So
be sure to attend.
The farmers Of this county seem
determined to organize so that we
may stabilize the price of our tobac-
co, our main money producer.
Respectfully,
T. 3. HILL.

his son, c. B. Stephens, on West High
street Monday afternoon at 2;3O
O'Clock, conducted by Revs. B. w.
Trimble and Clyde Darsie and burial

OF this just man volumes could be
written. His life was the embodiment
of rich graces. Whether in official
duties or the everyday walks, he was
the same, in justice to all.
The sweet songs, which were part
of his early life, made melodies of
the old-time sacred hymns. Sam i a
Soldier of the Cross, Follower of
the lamb" "Did Christ Der Sinners
Weep and Shall Our Cheeks BE dry z"
GLOW Firm a Foundation Ye Saints
of the Lord" These songs, indicative
of redeeming grace, were joys to him
so long as he could hear and sing
the words, and oftimes could be
heard rehearsing alone these favorite
hymns.
Mr.. Stephens entire life bore inn
prints worthy of emulation. May his
mantle fall ON worthy posterity, and
their lives be as his, all of praise.
