one of the boys Its so a decent fellow can scarcely afford to go there now Circuit Court The August term of the Garrard Circuit Court convened Monday with His Honor Judge M C Sauf ley on the bench In his charge to the grand jury Judge Saufley explain ed the duties clearly calling violation of criminal laws the fail ure of juries to inflict proper punish ment etc He dwelt at length on the frequent custom of juries in a big batch of indictments which amount to nothing and only put the courts to extra work and the state to expense He said it was not the of work done but the quality thereof which spoke well of a grand jury and compared it to the little 2x4 lawyer who is continually jumping and making motions in court the sole purpose of making the spectators think lie has a big lot of work on the docket In speaking of the testimony on the character of witnesses he said that a witness will answer most any question definitely yes or no but when asked in regard to a mans character from what the people say of it not once in a thousand times will a definite answer be given So do not return indictments on any testimony that you would not be to convict on were you on the tri al jury said he He took a shot at the juror who gets in his spite at an enemy paid his respects to the hearted jurors called attention the investigation of every county of lice and admonished the jury to look well into every matter brought before it That Judge Saufley is one of the ablest jurists in Kentuckyno one will dispute and his retirement from the bench is sincerely regretted by the people of Garrard irrespective of party He is an able lawyerabsolute ly fearless in discharge of his duties will not tolerate the delay or efforts to thwart justice and his absolute impartiality has won for him the highest esteem and confidence of the people The loss of the services of such a man is indeed a great misfor tune to any community The call of the Commonwealths docket was taken up Hon John Sam Owsley

By doing this it will make it much cheaper on patrons who have to buy so many clothes as the uniform is not expensive and all will be on an equal footing The uniform is of navy blue wool or cloth the quality to suit purchaser The hats are to be the mortarboard style and can be purchased at the milliners or dry goods houses The object of this uniform Is to cut down expenses of those parents who have to clothe so many children and the idea is a good one A similar plan has been for boys and the parents should join in with the trustees and make the scheme a success Republican Convention A

D I D n CENTRAL RECORD LOUIS LANDRAM Entered at the Post Office in Lancaster Ky a SecondClass Mail Matter Lancaster Ky August 21 1903 The negro who assaulted a white woman near Danville Ill which deed was the cause of the recent lynching and rioting in that community has been indicted convicted and to a long term in prison Should the people in every locality know to a certainty that brutes charged with crimes that throw men into fury and lawlessness would receive such prompt attention from the authorities it is safe to say this knowledge would cause a very material decrease in the number of lynchings and mobs no matter what the locality To a con siderable extentblame for a weakness on the part of the people to take law in their own hands and lynch rapists and criminals of this worst type is due to the fact that there has been a great laxity in the conviction and punish ment of the wretches whose offenses demanded that they be speedily sen tenced and placed where they could not molest and mutilate defenseless women We dare say that these men who stand willing to join a mob and lynch a human brute would consent to waive this apparently newly acquiredprivilege and let the law take its course if they knew be yond the slightest doubt that the man for whose blood they thirst would be duly punished without procrastina tion To terminate mob rule men guilty of the crimes which form the incentive to lynchings must be pun ished to the degrees that their crimes call for and promptly at that The Four Hundred upper crust of society is now asking the government for a mourning postage stamp There would be about as much sense in it as there is in the other tomfoolery now gone through with when a relative dies Attend a funeral and here comes- a long procession of black dresses Well that may do to wear to theser vices but for a few days after the rel atives go about clad in black clothes from head to foot and in cities they go so far as to have the harness of the horses draped in black goods of some kind We once saw a poodle dog in New York with his collar draped in black as he sat in a fine carriage by a rich woman who was mourning the loss of some rich old codger who had possibly left her a large fortune with which to marry again Our reason for disliking the custom is that there is enough gloom in the loss of a dear one without having one continual after it is over If you loved the deceased you will not have to wear certain kind of clothes to show it and for the people to dress in the godfor saken doleful garb cuts no figure with the public and only adds gloom to gloom How often have you heard the expression She looks well in black or I dont think black is at all to her Away with such tomfoolery Three thousand dollars is what a New York jury assessed a young fel low for kissing a girl 1233 times or a little over 240 per kiss If the kiss ee was a pretty Kentucky girl and she did her part in the operationthey were worth 82400 each but if she stood like a knot on a log and made the fellow do all the work one cent each was a high price A kiss so we have heard that is not responded to and entered into with the same spirit in which it is given is as objectiona sentenced beforehand funeral becoming ble as eating cold soup or listening to a temperance lecture For the second time one man on the jury has prevented the hanging of Jett and White the mountain assas sins Eleven good men and true were found in Harrison county but those back of the assassination with their mint of money succeeded in getting one man on the jury to stand pat against the will of the other eleven It seems that justice is a thing of the past in Kentucky Money can bring about anything even in the courts Rev Dr Hillis is of the opinion go to the devil on 50000 a year reverend gentleman is about right but there are many men who will risk their souls salvation for a much less sum We have known men pretty decent sort of people too who would see their best friend beg bread rather than lend him a helping hand This is a great old world any way you take it An upEast lunatic immagined he was the standing army If the poor fellow wants recognition and a boost from Uncle Sam he must pose as a red nosed politician and join the vol unteers as the Army has been thrown down at every opportunity and it has been clearly demonstrated that a reg ular stands about as much show as a clawless cat in perdition Those college students who went West to help in the harvest fields have returned home Mommerwas not thereto makeup the cook pies for them or comb their au burn locks The average college stu dent turns out a veritable hothouse plant It takes the farmer boy the Rube lad to keep the world amovin We have never seen a weekly handle a big and important matter as well as the Cynthiana Democrat re ported the JettWhite trial The sum and substance was given completely and didnt take all day to tell it It Jim Allen could court as well as he can run a newspaper he would have long since shaken off single cussedness Those eleven Harrison county must not think the people them in the least for the failure to hang Jett and White The public knows they were honest men and true men and would have hanged the assassins had not a black sheep been found to thwart their will There was a big old time footwash ing Indian Creek ville last Sunday the ministers of the land want to do a good turn for the people they will preach this old time custom and insist that it be out especially in warm weather Gen Miles is hearing the presiden tial bee buzzing in his bonnet and the

Ingersoll had been less analytical a little more considerate of the clergy and more sparing in rid icule some of the things he said and which are really worth remembering would have given place in

a matter of fact it came from the North and was first introduced in our section when old Col Cranberry of Lexington entertained a visitor from the State of New York The visitor picked a handful of mint one day and manufactured julep for the Colonel who straightway became exceedingly fond of it So enamored did he become of the seductive beverage that after the departure of his guest the Colonel kept his old body servant constantly chasing around in the search of mint Two years later the gentleman from New York found himself in the same locality and borrowing a horse he rode around the place to call upon the Colonel The place appeared deserted and neglected when he arrived There was nobody in sight save the old black servant who was seated dejectedly upon the doorstep He raised his eyes

the law against the worthless element of their race which has been bringing the negroes into Thejrask that the idlers the thieves and the toughs of that race be made to either go to work or else move on There are good negroes many of them who make good citizens those who are in favor of law and order and the worser element of their own race It might be well enough for the white people to take a similar stand and ask that the worser element of that race be compelled to go to work or get out The time is coming when honest men of all classes shall have to band them selves together against the

your occupation that de termines character it is more likely that your character will determine your occupation Occupation grant ed that it is honenst is not essential to character a noble life can be lived under the most adverse conditions White hands and a white pair of cuffs do not guarantee a white life nor do black hands determine the color of the heart within The tailor does not make character he makes clothes and his best clothes some times cover the blackest of hearts It is a mistake for a lad to feel that dirty hands indicate lack of charac ter not his occupation nor his call his moral purposes There is one thing only that may be called wrong in any occupation no matter how high or how low it is when manhood is not possible in The end of occupation ought to be not money but charac ter not only a prosperous business but a growing life He who cannot see manhood emerge out of the suc cess of his occupation or business is in n bad business and the sooner he is out of it
