JUDGE E. w. HARRIS
Another Of Lancaster's Honor
ed Citizens Passes Into
The Great Beyond

A ,inge Of regret mingled with sor-
row by those who knew him and By
those that were near and dear to
him. pervaded the entire community
when Il was learned last Friday
morning that Judge T.. W. Harris.
had passed away al his home on
Maple avenue the evening before. AZ
nine o'clock In the death Of Judge
Harris, Lancaster loses another 81
her most honored citizens and one
who had been identified with Ian
caster and Garrard county probably
longer than any other citizen. Judge
Harris was born in Garrari county
in isib and was in his 18th year.
When quite young he took up the
ssddler and harness business and for
many years, in fact until only few
years ago. he stuck 10 his trade and
was considered one Of the best in the
state in this line OF work. For many
years he served Lancaster as her
Police Judge. having been elected
several times in this capacity. which
was a compliment to him and to his
efforts to break up the whisky joints
which during his terms so infected
the city.
Judge Harris was devout member
Of the Presbyterian church and serv-
ed az a deacon for many years. Up
until about one year ago, Judge Har-
ris enjoyed the best Of health, but
an attack Of Bright's Disease at this
time soon brought TO close the end
Of a well spent life.
Beside a devoted wife, he leaves
one daughter. Mrs. W. ID. Walker and
four sons. Messrs. will. Sam. Ran
dolph and George Harris, all Of
whom were at hi. bedside when the
end. came.
Funeral services were conducted
at the grave in Lancaster cemetery
last Saturday morning at ten o'clock.
by his pastor. Rev. II. 5. Hudson,
before a large crowd. assembled to
pay it, last respects TO a beloved
citizen.
At all times. under all circum-
stances he walked in the well beaten
path o. Righteousness and when full
ly conscious that he was nearing the
last Of earth, he appeared TO be full
ly impressed with the idea that at
the end Of time eternity began, and
that the bright faith which sustained
him during those trying hours Of suf-
fering would only grow brighter and
brighter, as he journeyed toward the
Infinite and the final gloom Of death
be dispelled by the radiance Of Gods
love.

by the Registration Law enacted by
the last Legislature.
Polls will be opened at all regular

am urging all democrats to regis
ter at the first convenient opportun-
ity at this time. Under this law

tering to vote for life without the

an interesting election in November

are interested in the party's success
are requested TO call attention Of
their democratic neighbors TO the
necessity Of registering on the days
Of July 10 and 18th. This is a good
law. designed for the purpose Of pre-
venting frauds in the general cleo
tions. to prevent repeating at the
polls and to prevent the voting Of
Illegal voters. See that your demo-
cratic neighbors register on July 10th

u. S. Ownership of P0stoffice
Buildings Requested By Work
In Annual Report to Congress

Washington, Dec. 4.-The cam
paign for government ownership of
postoflce buildings throughout the
country was renewed by Postmaster
General Work in his annual report
today to congress.
Not only would a policy Of public
ownership relieve the government Of
much of its present housing conges-
ton, the Postmaster general said, but
It also Koulh make. for financial econ
o1ny since rentals Of more than $12r
100000 now being paid over annually
without tangible return could be In
vested instead in property Of q perma-
tnent value. :
Government owned buildings, he
pointed out, are free from taxation,
while tho government as a lessee must
pay enough rent to enable the land
lord to meet his tax bills. In the same
way he asserted that whereas the
government could borrow money ION
practically a four per cent basis" to
build postpfftces, when It leases 1t
pays q rental sufficient to permit the
lessor. to sborrow money at even per
