using these tests In picking out the

using them. 20 you will see they are
not merely theories.
I'm the nineteenth century we got
control over mechanical and sur

Buyers Cursed at MaysviIIe.

Maysville, KY, Jan. tobacco
growers stopped the tobacco sales at
Maysville warehouses this morning
about an hour after the opening sales
the reason given being that they re-
fuse to give their tobacco away" The
prices ran from one-half cent to 20
cents. General disorder prevailed.
Growers from six counties-Mason,
Lewis, Bracken and Fleming, KY, and
Brown and Adams counties, Ohio
crowded around the buyers cursing
and yelling and pushing buyers back.
The first basket of 115 pounds was
purchased by tobacco company for
10 cents a pound. Tobacco that
brought from rs cents to 35 cents
last year sold for 8 cents and 5 cents
today. A mass-meeting of tobacco
growers has been called for 1880
O'Clock today. There are $500 to A.
900 tobacco growers from surround
ing counties in Maysville, and feeling
is running high.

Hopkinsville. KY, Jan. 4.-The
loose leaf tobacco market opened
here today at heavy decline from
the high prices of the last few
seasons. Naturally this was a great
disappointment to the growers. But
there was no undue criticism, neither
was there any attempt to coerce the
market in any way. The predictions
that good tobacco would sell at salts
factory figures, but that low to me-
dunn grades would be heavily dis
counted were fully borne out. To-
days offerings were largely of infer
ior grades, but here and there would
be found truck of attractive tobacco
that provoked spirited bidding every
time. The growers for the most part
seem disposed to grumble and there
is some talk of asking the sale houses
to close. Sales were held at only five
of the houses, owing to the slowness
with which the sales proceeded and
the inability to reach three houses
before dark. Prices ranged as high
as $35 for fine leaf and as low as so
cents per hundred pounds for trash.
According to grade the range was:
Trash, so cents to So; common Tugs,
so to "a; good Tugs "a to Sc; COM
mon leaf Sc to $12; medium leaf .$12
to $40; good leaf, $50 to $25; fine
leaf S25 to $35. Sales were schedul-
ed to be held daily except Saturdays
from now on beginning tomorrow
with the houses which did not sell
today.

Mt Sterling, KY, Jan. 4.-Mont-
gomery County tobacco growers yot-
ed unanimously to cut out the crop

OLD TOWN NOT TO BE
IN TOTAL DARKNESS

The Kentucky Light and Power
Company which has been furnishing
light and water for Hartford for a
number of years, is not to dismantle
and quit business as formerly con-
templated and as per notice given
through the columns of each of the
local papers.
The City Authorities at meeting
held Monday night entered into a
contract with the Company for street
lighting during the period of four
years to come, while the Fiscal Court
on Tuesday also entered into con-
tract with the Company for light and
water for the Courthouse and Jail.
Both County and Town agreeing to a
substantial advance in the rates.
The question of disseminating the
service by the Company had the popu-
lace, generally speaking, considerably
worried, as those who were patrons
of the corporation naturally had a
considerable sum invested in light
and water fixtures which would, in
most instances, have been practically
worthless, to say nothing of the in
conveniences resulting from discon-
tinuing the service.

held a meeting in front OF the old
Capitol and adopted resolutions de-
handing that the warehouses thru
out the state close down until an or
ganization OF the growers had been
perfected and steps taken to form a
county organization.
The meeting was presided over by
former Representative Boone Hamil-
ton.
Mr.. Hamilton advised the growers
to sign a contract to limit the acreage
for a period of ten years, so as to pre-
vent overproduction and hold the
price up.

Paris, KY, Jan. 4.-The Paris
market opened this morning with
feeling of uncertainty and pessimism
on he part of the growers After the
sale had progressed two hours II was
evident that the conditions here were
mach worse than those at Lexington
and a demand was made that the
sales be closed. Expert tobacco men
of forty years experience said the
slaughter was the worst in their ex-
perience. Better grades of the weed,
which last year would have brought
$1.25 per pound or more, brought
only from 80 to 40 cents. AS the
sale progressed the feeling of resent
ment increased until trouble seemed
to b unavoidable. Yielding to gen.
eral demand which practically
amounted to threats. the sale was
closed at IL o'clock. At 1880
O'Clock over 1900 farmers and grow
ers crowded into the Bourbon County
Courthouse, where, after placing ].
T. Collins, Manager of the Bourbon
Tobacco Warehouse Company, in the
chair, a motion was made calling for
the keeping of the present crop and
cutting out of this years crop. This
was carried without a dissenting
voice. The two large tobacco ware
house companies then announced the
closing of their sales floors for an in
definite period.

Friday and Saturday, January 2S
and 20 are the dates fixed for exami-
nations for common school diplomas.
Every school boy and girl within the
confines of the County, who deem
themselves qualified to pass the ex-
animation should present themselves
at one of the three points selected,
in which the examinations or tests
are to be made and strive fol- a grade
emitting them to a certificate of
graduation. 1t is really worth while,
even if you have not a fixed inten-
ton to attend high school next year.
1t may develop later that you desire to
attend some one of the County High
Schools, and, armed with certificate
of common school graduation. free
tuition in high school is assured. If
after putting forth an honest fort,
you fall a bit short of securing the
diploma, what of it? 1t would only
show that you need to do a bit more
work in the common school branches,
and, barring slight disappointment
perhaps, those who fail can not be
really hurt, because another chance
will be offered and redemption from
the failure can be made. In all
events every boy and girl may be, in
fact are certain to be benefited by
undergoing the examination. 1t is a
step out and forward, it will have a
tendency to remove timidity and
make one more self reliant. By steps
hewn by the climber only, may ascen-
dency to the solid pinnacle above be
attained and rightly kept for ones
own. Seek to be a climber, you have
already made good start, pass an i'm
portant point in the upward climb by
taking this examination, don't stop un-
til you have secured a good high
school education, then go further, if
possible, because the brightest goal is
at the end of the longest climb.

day with growers from all parts OF
the state watching the sales to get a
line on prices to be paid. No action
was taken toward stopping the sales
pending opening of the other import
ant markets at Mount Sterling, Car
Isle, Paris, Danville, Winchester,
Maysville and Covington as growers
said they hoped that indications at
these markets would be for higher
prices.
The temper of growers. however,
was none too good this morning and
when prices offered were even lower
than yesterday. the Lexington mar
ket was closed. Soon afterwards
Mount Sterling, Winchester and other
markets closed, reports being that
cessation of trading at Carlisle and
Maysyille was due to the threaten
ing attitude of growers toward buy
ers.
