SEWER RIGHT OF WAY
NOW SIGNED UP

The City of Barbourville has Just
signed contract with James s. Gold
EN- and Judge b. b. Golden for a
right of way thru the land below
the Public Square and North Main
Street for the building of a sewer to
the creek. This will do away with
the existence of an open sewer or
two which now endanger the public
health. DR.. G. II. Albright, to whom
the credit of pushing this important
work is largely due. asks that the
citizens who are now connected with
these open sewers and who have al
ready formed an organization to
build a sewer will proceed with the
work as quickly as possible. The
City Engineer, J. r. Murphy, has
already measured the distance and
given an estimate of costs at the
figures prevailing at that time.
Little by little, Barbourville is
passing into the ranks of those little
cities which stand for cleanliness
and sanitation.
We congratulate the City Council
for putting the right of way thru
and also Dr. Albright for his per-
istence in the matter.

A THRILLING MOMENT

DR.. Leslie Logan took his very
valuable life in his hands on We'd
nesday when he got into DR.. Wig
gintOn's basket, one passenger motor
cycle with an inexperienced driver.
Almost before they knew II the old
thing had broken from its mOorings
in front of the Doctors Office, buck
ed across the street. entered the
Court House grounds, bounced in,
out and over trees and finally with
a flourish landed the much shaken
doctor. hatless and almost without
dignity, in front of the Jones Hotel.
The friends of the doctor who had
the privilege of seeing the stunt ex-
acted a promise from him that he
never, no never, would ride as a
passenger in or on a basket motor.
These colts are dangerous animals.

wYRICK FOR SHERIFF
ENDORSED by JUDGE EARLY

Those persons who know of the
splendid record which Mr. f. ]. wy
rick, candidate for Sheriff Of Knox
County, made while he was Marshall
of Corbin, Ky, are unanimous in
their opinion that Wyrick is the man
for Sheriff at this time.
After open saloons had benn voted
out of Corbin, Ky, there arose in
that city a spirit of lawlessness and
a wave of crime swept over the town
very much the same as is prevalent
in Knox County at the present time.
The City Council and Mayor could
only retain marshalls and policemen
for short time until they we're in
timidated and would be compelled
to resign, leaving the law abiding
citizens in great need of protection
for their lives and property.
Realizing the conditions the City
Council sent for Mr.. f. j. Wyr.ck,
who at that time was a citizen of
COrbin, on the Knox County side.
and knowing him as they did, they
asked him to take the place of Mar
shall Of the city and requested of
him that he arrest certain desperate
characters that had been outraging
the community. Mr.. Wyrick accept
ed the position, and in a fortnight
the bad actors of that city were safe
in jail and as soon as their term of
Imprisonment was out they moved
their scene Of action to other quar-
ters and Corbin was left n peacea-
BILE and quiet community again.
Below is a letter from Judge r.
A. Early. of Corbin, which is 4 lest
imOny to the honesty, intregity and
courage of Mr.. Wyrick:---
"TO the Citizens of Knox County:
l understand that f. ]. Wyriclt,
now a citizen of your county, is a
candidate for Sheriff 10 be voted for
at the August Primary. l wish to
say he was a good citizen while he
lived in Corbin, and was and is yet
good Republican. He is always at
his post to vote for and stand by the
party.
And | wish to say he is a bust
ness man. always found him on
the square. 1t fell to my lot to do
quite a lot of contracting work in
Corbin in building houses etc. He
is contract man to the very mark
and I never had a cents difference
with him in settlement.
Further, he was Marshall for the
City of Corbin for a good while and
always found him ready to exc
cute all papers placed in his hands
fearlessly and without prejudice to
friend or foe, always cool headed
and to a business point. | earnestly
believe that if he should be elected
he would make your county a good
lreliable Sheriff.
Yours respectfully,
