MORGANS MEN

Morgans men have their annual reunion yesterday and today at

Parks Hill the attractive grounds in Nicholas county at which forthe past several years the survivors of that famous command have

foregathered together There those who in their youth rode under

tie Stars and Bars will meet to clasp hands renew the memories ofthose gallant days and repledge the friendship which welded in thelire of battle have stood the test of years of peace

Rapidly do their ranks diminish as comrade after comrade falls

even as the lovable loyal Mike Satilley high gentlemen and uprightjudge fell asleep but a few days ago and the gallant daring Sam

Leavy passed to the Great Beyond but a few short weeks since

And to the very day almost to the very minute when Gods fin-

ger

¬

touched him each of those who have gone before has borne his

burden played his part in the drama of life as each met fully the

danger and bore cheerfully the privations of war No such bodofomen ever rode under such a leader as that band of young Kentuckianswho made the name of Morgans men immortal We and all Ken ¬

tuckians do ourselves proud snore than a generation since the close ofthat war in making holiday of the day on which the survivors tfthose youths tow gruyhmred but still VQiHiis in strength buoyancyand high purpose gather to revive the memories of the days of longago and close ranks so that shoulder to shoulder they nay march onfacing the future as they laced death leveleyed and unafraid Lex ¬

MR LANGLEYS PROMISES-

if sonic of the tales told in the meeting of the Tenth District

Democrats arc true the present Representative has seen the Chicago

platform tariff plank and gone it two or three better A Government

turnpike from Mt Sterling to the Virginia line a pension for all Con ¬

federate soldiers an increase to 1 a day in all Federal pensions

money in lieu of the public lands not alloted to theta for all mountain ¬

eels with Indian blood in their veins and the repeal of time Kentuckydog tax law by congressional enactment are cited as instances of Mr

Langleys intended beneficences to his constituents

The mere recital c f them is to pay tribute to a more than gencr

eous nature To say that Mr Dangle is the most promising politi¬

cian in Kentucky is but to do him justice To predict that he will be

one of the most finished politicians in Kentucky on the Dthof next

November calls for no gift of augury The present is an off year forthe practice of the Republican art of fooling all of the people nilofthe time as Uncle Joe Cannon can boar witness

i

But for all that wed like to see Mr Langley taken care of Agentleman of his ability would make an excellent keeper of the recordsof time Ananias

HOSESeveral members of the local lire department have requested us to

call attention to the City Ordinance milking it a violation of the law todrive over a lire hose

At several fires recently u number of good citizens in vehicles ofvarious kinds have recklessly driven over the hose apparently uncon ¬

scious of the possible consequence Instances are numerous whereserious damage has been done in this manner and much valuable timelost in repairing a bursted place or replacing it with a new section

We are sure this practice is the result of thoughtlessness aloneand hope it will not occur in the future

THANKS MR JAMES I

Upon behalf of the Democrats of the Tenth Congressional Districtwe desire to thank Congressman OJlie M1 James of the First Districtfor his able address at our recent convention

Having accepted an invitation from our citizens to be present bocame from Washington ID C at his own expense and after the con ¬

vention hurried back to Washington on the next train to the bedsideof his sick wife

The Democrats of this end of the State would like to see Big Olliemade United States Senator
