Yes, Women Can Vote On Bond Issue

The question has been asked quit,
frequently lately whether womer
could vote on the bond issue and we
take this means Of stating that they
can. In Menefee county at the Good
Roads election held recently the
women voted almost solidly in favor
of same and we feel confident the
women Of Montgomery will not be
less progressive and will VOTE
UNANIMOUSLY TO GET OUT OF
THE MUD.
The election to be held Saturday,
May 28th, should create much IN
terest in this county and every
woman, as well as every man, should
be CERTAIN to go to the polls and
cast their vote in favor Of the most
progressive step taken by this
county in fifty years. In our sister
county Of Menefee there was only
$50 votes recorded against the bond
issue and surely a county with the
resources of Montgomery should be
far more interested in this most pro-
gressive move.
LET'S MAKE 1T UNANIMOUS.

Circuit Court

Montgomery Circuit Court con-
vened in the May term Monday with
Judge Fl. r. Prewitt presiding, Hon.
W. c. Hamilton on duty and all court
officials. ready to obey the bidding
of those in authority. The juries re-
ported as published in our last issue
were present. Judge Prewitt deliv-
cred an earnest impressive charge
under the law and the mills began
to grind.
The docket is very light. The case
against HI. Fl. Pieper was continued
by prosecution and Mr.. Pieper re-
turned to New York today.
Case against John o. Kidd set for
tomorrow and which necessitates a
special judge, and may be continued
due to the fact that no judge has
been assigned.
The Trimble will case is set for
next Monday and we are informed.
indications are that compromise
may be effected.

Paved Streets or
Mud Roads? Which?

This is the question that will be
decided by the citizens of Montgom-
cry county at the polls Saturday,
May 2Sth. If we vote the bond issue
we are assured of several paved
main thoroughfares and the other
roads Of the county being put in q
much better condition that we will
have a system Of highways equalled
by few counties in the state. The
amount Of money, even our largest
taxpayers will be called on to paw
will be comparatively small, and we
hope every far-sighted, pubHc-spirit-
ed man will do all in his power to
keep Montgomery county out of the
mud. Let's get busy and work for
the greatest issue that has been be-
fore our people in half century.

Alumni Banquet

The banquet given by the Alumni
Association of the Montgomery
County High School last evening was
attended by about forty guests and
was highly enjoyed. The decora-
tions were of pink and white, the
colors of the Glass of '21, and
were most effectively used. The ban
quet was served by a committee from
the Country Woman's Club and it
goes without saying that the menu
was faultless one. Hobart Grooms,
of the class of 30, now a student at
the University of Kentucky, was
present and acted as toastmaster.
Toasts were given by Miss Mamie
May Coons, president of the Class Of
'21, and Mrs. Ila See Zimmerman,
Miss Mary Belle Campbell, Orville
Alfrey, Miss Mary Williams, Miss
Elsie Stephens, Robert Moss and
Prof. M. j. Goodwin. After the BAN
quet musical program was given,
including vocal solo by Mrs. s. F.

Work Begun on
100000 Shale Plant

The Shale Rock Corporation has
begun work grading the switch line
from near Ogg Station on the X. &
S. A. Railroad, a distance of one
half mile to the plant. The COM
pleted factory, which will be con-
structed in units, will cost approx
mately $750,000 as stated by Mr.
V. o. Foulk, of Pittsburgh, secretary
and treasurer of the company, who
is here and will give the work his
personal supervision.
Mr.. Foulk further stated that the
impression out that the company
would soon offer stock for sale to
the local people was incorrect, and
that no stock would be offered for
sale here.
The building of this plant will be
of much interest to Mt. Sterling, as
it will create a large payroll. the
greater portion of which will be
spent with Mt. Sterling business S.
men. ~ -
Another proposition which will
come a little later on is, how will the
laboring men be housed, will the rail-
road furnish a special train to trans
port the men to and from the plant,
with homes in this city, or will it be
necessary for the company to build
homes at the plant? This will be
matter to be settled by our people
after the completion of the first
plant unit.
Again, already another manufac-
turing concern now established and
doing a profitable business, a rich
company, is interested in a change
of location on account of the great
abundance of shale in this section.
This section is now approaching,
as we see it, golden opportunity,
and we should be ready to deal with
the increased population and busi-
ness these new enterprises will add.
