improvements Made By Comm Is
sIOner Hunt.

To The EDITOR For the past few years
the sixteen foot fill Of earth on and under
the Rockville pike. or Lincoln Highway. just
north of the District line, has been slipping
and during the past winter there was a
very dangerous washout at this point,
endaneering the lives Of all who travel
this most important road into Washington.
The people of the county in hauling their
farm products to market nearly all use this
pike and the milk trucks from the upper
part OF the county also travel this route
merely state this for the reason that to
County Commissioner Harry Hunt Is due
the credit Of eliminating this dangerous
condition by rushing to completion heavy
stone wall abuttment at this point with a
dry-wall fill on the pressure side, and prob
ably averted a disastrous accident at this
point which might have cost the county
thousands Of dollars Ia damage suit.
The Washington Railway and Electric
Company has moved two dangerous poles
on this pike. which was requested by the
Commissioners at Mr.. Hunts suggestion,
one at Somerset and one at Bradley Hills.
where the pike is narrow. They have also
cleaned and painted their several waiting
stations at Mr.. Hunt request, which makes
a vast difference in the appearance Of this
section. For this action the people Of the
community wish to publicly thank Com
missioner Hunt and Engineer Kimball. Of
the Washington Railway and Electric Com
pany. Harry is surely continuing his good
work in manner that makes the people
Of this old Bethesda district feel proud Of
him as their Commissioner.
Very truly yours,
THOMAS HAMPTON.

AUSTIN PEAY REFUSES
TO ENTER RACE.

The Hon. Austin Peay, of Clarks-
vile, who made very creditable race
for the Democratic gubernatirial
nomination two years ago, refuses TO
enter the lists this year against Gov
ernor Roberts in spite of strong So
licitation to do so-which he admits
he received. Col. Lawrence d. Tyson,
of Knoxville, who also received con-
siderable solicitation to be candi-
didate. has aeffinitalp decided that he
will not do so. Some liked Peay.
some wanted Tyson, others clammor-
ed for Roberts to succeed himsest :
and now all will have the option Of
casting their ballots for All. Roberts
in November or switching to whom
soever the Republicans name at Chat
tanooga on the 14th of April. The
SANDER on the Republican party has,
already gone out that Jess Littleton
viii be their standard bearer but we
are loath to believe it for the race
made by Littleton several years ago
against frazier was an ignoble fiasco.

REPUBLICAN CONGRESS
SIONAL COMMITTEE MEETS

The Republican Executive Commit

District met in Lexington last Fri
day, with all counties represented in
the persons Of the committeeman or

son, of Henderson county, presided
and Secretary Dan Hinkle, of Hardin
county, was present. The other
members of the committee present
were Mr.. Capps, of Madison county,
J. Wesley Williams, of Carroll, W. G,
Kirk, of Henry, and W. F. Arnold, of
Madison, was here holding proxy.
The purpose of the meeting was to

HENDERSON COUNTY
SELLS IT'S WORK STOCK


Ten mules and two wagons hereto
fore used by the County Highway
Commission on road work, were solo
at auction last Monday The ten
mules brought 1,482.00, one wagon
$17.25 and the other wagon $68.00.
The idea of the Highway authori-
ties is that the county having adopt
ed the use of tractors, motor rucks
and road building machinery general
ly, the mule work can be done more
cheaply by hiring than by keeping
the mules and feeding them at the
prevailing high feed prices.
Others believe that the sale of the
stock will have a detrimental effect
on road building and that the stock
properly worked, could have been re-
tanned at an advantage.
At least some of the mules had
been used four years and brought
back their original cost.
Eternal vigilance, economy anc
conscientiousness go to make up the
price of good roads bought with the
peoples money-without these roac
building, repairing and maintenance
are money sinkers.

BOLSHEyICKS TO BE
RECOGNIZED.

AS far back as week ago or even
longer it seemed but brief matter of
time until the leading governments Of
Europe would recognize the soviet
government of Russian spite of
the fearful stories of that regime in
the land of the Bear. As matter of
fact a recent writer tells us of his
personal observations in Moscow and
elsewhere, which utterly refute many
publiched accounts of atrocities
reported committed under Lenine and
Trotsky. He reported the big city of
Moscow, in the hands Of the Bolshevi-
XII as almost normal in appearance,
people going about their everyday
business-and prices sky-high, just
as we find them here, where so many
millions of patriotic Americans are
acting on the idea of going after
what you want and getting it while
the getting is good. The Devil is said
to be not so black as he is reputed-
and it may be so with soviet Russia.

VOLUME XXXVI
PRESIDENT SIGNS
THE RAILROAD BILL

Last Saturday night President Will
son signed the Esch- -Cummins bill
providing return of the railroads to
their owners on last Monday, March
/, and for regulation of the lines af-
ter their return. A leading feature
of the law is its provision guarantee
ing the roads a financial return Of
5h per cent. Another important sec
tion is the setting UP of tribunals for
adjustment Of wages and other dis
putes. Organized railroad labor and
some organizations of farmers oppos-
ed the bill, while still other groups Of
farmers urged the President to sign
it. Beginning last Monday the roads
roads were put under the direction of
the Interstate Commerce Commission
which is given much more power un-
der the new law. There will be much
litigation on both sides in connection
with the new law. The unions will
challenge the guaranty section Of it
many roads will ask for increased
rates and roads themselves will test
the purpose of the government to
take half their profits over 6 pei
cent. Many roads will file claims for
damage to their property while in
government hands.

GOOD MASONIC MEETING.

Constantine Lodge No. 64, Free
and Accepted Masons, held special
meeting last Monday night at which
three degrees were conferred and
which we hear members say among
themselves was a most profitable and
enjoyable occasion to all present. In
this connection, we hear the Masons
expressing regret that Mr.. Harry
Dalton, chiel clerk to Master Me-
chanic McDaniels win leave Lexing-
ton and 90 to Paducah. They say Mr.
Dalton has been filling the place Of

FIRST MONDAY
MAKES A FLASH


Last Monday, as the First Monday
In March, was almost FLASH in the
pan" Notwithstanding there was quite
goodly crowd in Lexington and the
mule business flourished all day.
Had weather and health conditions
been favorable, everything indicated
that the crowd might have been a
record breaker, but the widespread
prevalence of influenza, the report
that Lexington had had few cases
of small pox (which report was
greatly magnified) coupled with the
cold of the early morning, the
snow of Saturday night still covering
the ground, cut down the attendance
to perhaps one-fifth of what it would
have been under favorable circum-
stances.
However, there was considerable
business-and those who failed to get
what they wanted will come back, for
this is day of money-spending as
well as money-making. Most all who
have in any way curtailed their ex-
penses and even some who have not,
seem to have plenty of money and
men who formerly haggled over
prices now pay them without asking
the figures.

ONLY SURVIVING
FIRST "Y" HEADS

Major e. B. Stahlman and R. s.
Cowan are the only two surviving Of
the original directors Of the Nashville
Young Mems Christian Association.
The first Young Mems Christian
Association in Nashville was organi-
zed Jan. 81, 1866. Although in the
past. sixty-five years the Association
has passed through some trying per-
icds, these two original directors are
as loyal true friends Of the work as
in those early days when it had few
er friends. smaller equipment, and
was serving fewer boys and men, and
with rauch less well-rounded pro.
gram.
Today Nashville boasts Of Y. M
C. A. equipment equaled to none in
the entire South. The estimate val
ue of the building site and equipment
is three quarters of million dollars
The central association is now carry
ing debt of $130,000, which is pro-
portionately small but necessarily is
a handicap to the institution in its
rendering the larger service.
The total membership at this time
is 1887 boys and men, which howev.
er, is only small per cent of the
number of boys and men coming un
der its influence and using its privi
leges.-Banner.

NUMBER 81
MONDAY BIG MULE
DAY IN LEXINGTON.

In spite of the fact that the crowd
in Lexington last Monday was moder-
ate compared with what it might
have been had weather and health
conditions been favorable, the day
proved to be a big one in the mule
traffic.
Many home mules changed hands
at handsome prices, as shown by the
fact that Jim Milan (just over the
Carroll linel sold a pair for $4,000.
W. d. Wright sold a single mule at
$4,000 and there were many other
transactions we did not have time to
locate.
Marshall & Littrell, Missouri men,
had here a car of young mules with
jim .Wylie, of Saltillo, in charge and
with a professional auctioneer to do
the spelling. This bunch Of mules,
yearlings, was sold out at moderate
present prices, ranging from $75 to
$125 per head. Out of this bunch
Gene Wood, of Chester county,
bought twenty.
Slayden & Sanders, of Waverly,
were here with bunch of mules and
we are informed sold about half of
them.
The mule business was the prin-
cipal attraction of the day and kept
the majority of the crowd on the
South East side of the public square.

MRS. George Wheeler
Who Knew Hardings
Repudiates Falsehood

Reports were received by The
Evening Herald today to the effect
that there were persons in Albuquer'
quc who were still trying to spread
the rumor about Senator Hardlng's
ancestry, and maintaining that II was
80 despite Its complete reputation.
Mrs. George Wheeler OF this city,
who formerly resided in Marion, o.,
and knew Senator and Mrs. Harding,
today had many telephone calls from
womcn who were inquiring about the
truth OF the rumoTs of the ances.
AIRY OF Mr.. Harding,
To these inquiries Mrs. Wheeler
replied that she knew they were alb
solutcly false, for as long as she had
lived In Marion she had never heard
the rumor and II surely would not
have been secret until the eleventh
hour of u political campaign.
Mrs. Wheeler said she was In
Marion when Senator Harding vas
married and she knew OF the oppo-
sition of his brides father to tho
wedding because OF the poor finnn
clai circumstances 'of Mr.. Harding
and said that II there was anything
against Mr.. H%arding's ancestry II
would most certainly have beer
raised then.
She said the Hardings were held
In the highest esteem In Marion ther
as well as now and there had never
been a shadow of suspicion raised
! against them.
She said she a not n republican
but in fairness 10 Mr.. Hardint
thought such underband methods u
attack should be given an over.
