refused by the Commissioners be-
cause of the policy of naming

named w. A. Olson and c. T. Bright
as members of a committee to get

Mr.. Trimble is no ordinary Gov

In the Capital and worked his way
up. Out Kentucky way he is still
rated as one of the master leaders
in that political battle ground. For
so years he has been in politics.
While the going has not been smooth
at all times he has had his share of
party and public honors.
Fact is that Mr.. Trimble made
political history in Kentucky, when
after serving only one term In the
Legislature Of his State he was
elected in his second term as speaker
of the house Of Kentucky by q
margin of one vote after So ballots
had been taken. 1t was a memorable

Such as sit in darkness and in
the shadow of death, being bound
in afaiction and iron;
Because they rebelled against
the words Of God, and condemned
the counsel Of the most high:
Therefore He brought down
their heart with labour; they fell
down, and there was none to help.
Then they cried unto the Lord
in their trouble, and He saved
them out Of their distresses"
AS the day of thanksgiving has
just passed, and we looked upon it
with the most sacred thoughts,
may we praise God in America We
still have our churches, the Ameri-
can flag and schools.
Let us thank God for the Holy
Bible, and for the bountiful season
He has given us in the past year
-Four our food and raiment and
homes still free from bombs.
Oh that we may praise God, and

to save US to the uttermost part Of
the world! Romans 1913.
