REPUBLICANS KICK
AGAINST ELECTION OFFICERS

~ Robert w. Cole was in London on
Monday and heard Congressman ].
NJ. Robsion make one of the most
magnificent speeches of his career
when he literally tore the arguments
of his opponents to pieces. The
house was crowded and the sponta-
neous and lasting applause of those
present proved that Mr.. Robson has
a multitude of friends in Laurel
County. A lot sale and free barbe-
cue with band set for the time of the
speech Git is alleged by political op-
ponents) failed to draw the audi
ence from the hall.
Congressman Robson was intro
duced by ex-Congressman Edwards
who spoke highly of his character
and qualifications for the high office
he fills and the audience, judging
by the hearty cheers, was in full
sympathy with Mr.. Edwards state
ments.
The tactics of the democrats in
Laurel County came in for a blister
inf arraignment by our congressman
who charged that the sheriff of Lau-
rel County, who is a democrat, and
the democratic commission met
without giving the republicans no.
tice and appointed all the election
officers. Singularly the MANAGER
of the Sipple Campaign Committee
was named as one OF the REPUBLI-
CAN ELECTION OFFICERS. On
these facts being drawn to their at
tention by Mr.. Robsion the audience
voted unanimously that suit be in
stituted to compel them to meet
again and name two republicans
who are supporting the republican
ticket and two democrats who are
supporting the democratic ticket for
each precinct in the county.
After all wild democratic claims
are discounted, it seems certain that
Mr.. Robslon will carry Laurel Coun-
ty by 1000 majority and, If repub-
licans will go to the polls in Novem-
ber, he will carry the whole district
by 10000 majority.

KIwANIs AGAIN KICKS OFF

( Friday night marked a new kick
off of the ball Of progress when XII
wants. about thirty strong and
among them the most progressive
citizens of Barbourville, met to get
Kiwanls going strong. The summer
time held too many attractions and
the club was allowed to languish
and become practically useless, ex-
cept that the meetings DID PRO
NOTE friendliness and a better un-
derstanding of each other. 1t is
now intended to go ahead and make
Kiwanis what it should be--a force
for progress in Barbourville.
President T. d. Tinsley stated
that next Friday night will be ladies
night and the meeting will be held
at Union College. Ex-Governor Hal
Mould, of Pineville, and others will
be present and will present the Char
ter to the club on this occasion.
President Tinsley asked for sug-
estions as to what is most needed in
Barbourville, saying that we must
decide on something definite to do
and then get down to business and
do it, which remark was the height
of good sense.
! After Robert w. Cole had given a
humorous account of his trip to New
York where he associated with the
monied ones of the earth, sugges-
tions were made.
H. H. Owens suggested a City Hall
We have no place for police court,
he said, nor for the meetings of the
City Council, in fact no public hall
for any purpose. If we want to in
vite the Kiwanig Clubs from over
this section or to get a convention
here, we cannot do it without hav-
ing to use a private building.
{ T. w. Minton suggested a tourist
camp for Barbourville. He pointed
out that it will be but a short time
DeIOTe lOuIlSlS bVSiu " dili'S' "i'Ai

will mean that these tourists will
stay around town for few days
and thus leave more money in town
than If merely passing thru.
! Fred Burman suggested that XII
wants take definite steps to interest
farmers in fruit growing on com
mercial scale, repeating what was
said by Mr.. Niles. the secretary of
the State Horticultural Society. as
to the superiority of fruit of this
section.
! Judge S. B.. Dishman spoke of the
wonderful business development
since the paved streets were put in
and advocated good roads as the
next best bet.

LOGAN HOSPITAL
Bedded Down Under Own Roof

The new LoganS1E Hospital was
ready for business Monday when the
Advocate reporter visited the insti-
tuition. The large and comfortable
waiting room was receiving its final
touches at the capable hands of Mrs.
Ed Faulkner and a colored girl with
q mop.
DR.. Ed Faulkner opportunely
opened his door as the Advocate
man snooped around and shifted the
ether and cordially invited him in
to see mis- movie dental show This
consists of an X-ray machine, foun-
tain and cuspidor all in one unit,
dark room for developing X-ray
films, sterilizer and cabinet and
pnother cabinet for laboratory sup
plies. The balance of the movie
show consists of DR.. Ed Faulkner
himself when he takes them there"
instruments of his'n and waves 'em
over our teeth. which, after so many
years of life together, have gone
back on us SO that a divorce has be-
come necessary. AS the young lady
remarked, dentistry is positively
thrilling" and most of US find it so.
DR.. Logan's sanctum sanctorum is
a nice room where one may tell
ones inner secrets in comfort. 1t
has those machines which tell you
it is time to 60 to bed and stay there
awhile and strolling along the hall,
one finds the beds with clean steets
invitingly spread over them. Any
one who needs a rest will find the
hospital has lots of it on hand
Upstairs are other nice beds with
nurses to administer good cheer,
good food from the up-to-date kitch-
en- downstairs, and other incidentals.
A linen shower in the evening,
which almost developed into a down
pour, rained pots and pans, drink
ing glasses, sheets and towels, pill
low slips and things to prevent them
from slipping, dish towels flower
vases, etc, which brought beaming
smiles to the faces of the nurses and
Mrs. Logan, while on the face of DR..
Logan lay that look of perplexity
which man wears when confront
ed by lot of laundry which he
does not know where to place. For
tunately he did not have to decide,
which saved him grey hairs.
The shower was a most delight
full thought on the part Of the wo-
men of the city and Dr.. Logan is
very appreciative of the kindness
which led to such a fine mode OF ex-
preston of public appreciation of
the new hospital and we may safely
add. of himself, personally
DR.. Logan's greatest pride is his
operating room, which, though seen
under electric light, gave proof that
even the most delicate surgical oper-
alton may be carried on under a
fine light and every other favorable
circumstance.
Citizens of Barbourville have
right to be proud of the new hospi-
tai and the enterprise displayed by
DR.. Logan in building It.

willing to comply with the order issued
last week by Justice Robert T.. Wag-
ner of the Supreme Court. Picketinp

tive Association, said he would send the
letter, offering to take back the strikers
under the terms for which they struck
when Justice Wagner's order had been
filed. That, he said, would be done to-
day. The court held that the employ
ers had broken their agreement with the
international Ladies' Garment Makers
Union and ordered them to open their
shops under the terms of the contract of
May 20, 1919, calling for a forty-four
hour week and weekly wage payment
Although Mr.. Schlesinger does not ad-
it is almost certain that the $1,000
workers still on strike will be back at
their jobs within few days. A meet
ing of the strike committee has been
callod for this evening in Bryant Hall
and il the letter is received to-day ac-
ton win be taken upon it. If favorable,
and there. is every indication that it
will be. the workers probably will return
to their shops Immediately
A hearing on the suit of the Ameri-
can Cloak and Suit Manufacturers AS
sociation against the union is scheduled
for to-day before Justice Charles l..
Guy of the Supreme Court. In this lit
igation the employers charge the urion
with breaking its contract with them by
calling the strike on November IA.
Morris Hillquit. attorney for the union,
said last night that any action TO be
taken upon that. matter would depend
upon developments in the settlement OF
the strike.
