interest produces the raw material which makes manufacture and commerce possible and is the founda lion of national prosperity and Whereas The miner makes a handto hand fight with danger in the depths of the earth by which the whole country profits and Whereas The difficulties and dangers which surround him and the scientific and executive aid which he needs can be only understood and appreciated by one who has lived his life and shared his difficulties privations and danger and Whereas The creation of the depart ment of agriculture has already been of in calculable benefit to the agricultural indus try while the mining industry still languishes a dependency of a department de necessarilyfneeds therefore be it MioingCoogressthat we do unanimonsly petition the Congress of the United States to create a new department of mines and mining whose purpose shall be lo aid develop and foster the mining Industry of the United States by every influence within its reach and further be it- Resolved

Opportunity and Should Help to Recognize the Honor Paid by the Government to the State I In the Battleship Kentucky We are in receipt of a circular letter written as an address to all Kentuckians by the chairman of the Finance Committee of the State Comission for the United States battleship Kentucky and we take great pleasure in presenting the whole mater before our read ers in the words of the writer And we invoke the interest and hearty cooperation of all Kentuck ians with the honorable and praise worthy work undertaken by the Commission The letter vhich is fully self explanatory is as follows LOUISVILLE Kv July 27 1898 DEAR SIRThe great battleship Ken tucky named in honor of the State was in the presence of the Governor and many representative citizens from all parts of Slate of Kentucky launched March 25 1898 and will be put in commission sometime between January 1st and March 1st 1899 The presence of Kentuckians at the launching was merely a preliminary recognition of the honor done the State by the Government and it was universally conceded that something more substantial must be done by the poplc of Kentucky and that when the great ship shall have been completed a handsome silver service emblazoned with the arms of the State should be presented Such has been the custom of all the States which have been so honored by the Government Kentucky I know will not be behind but will rather excel them in the splender of her gift and the universal ity of the offering The gift will not cost less than 10000 It is proposed to secure this amount by popular subscription Every town in the State of Kentucky should be represented and with the view of making the subscription as general as possible I have addressed this letter to representative citizens in all parts of the State No one need fear that his subscription will be too large nor none too small that it will be overlooked We want both dollars and dimes for it is to be the peoples gift With the gift to the ship will go a list of the contributors and the place of residence but not the amount so in making your contribution please write your name and address distinctly It is also proposed to publish a souvenir book which will contain a cut of the battleship Kentucky with description cut and description of the silver service an account of the launching and the presentation also names of subscribers The book will also contain the latest revised list of the American Navy and other interesting data The publication of this book depends largely on the amount of the subscription it will be sent free to those who contribute ho or more As chairman of the Finance Committee I ask your personal cooperation in this work that you will at once lake this mat ter up with your neighbors to the end that the call may be liberally and promptly met The splendid achievements of the Amer ican Navy in the present war thrill every American heart with pride whenever it Is mentioned and I am persuaded that on this occasion there will be no backwardness on the part of our people but a patriotic rivalry as to who will give first and most Yours respectfully j HAKRY WEISSINGER Chairman Finance Committee N B

medi tating deeply upon the tariff problem a large rattlesnake fell in the furrow right under his feet Ernest let off a yell which would have drowned a steam whistle and soared like a kite toward the

Mailed on the Train Dur ing the Past Year Prevented Earlington Office Going INTO TH E PRESIDENT CLASS What the Change Would Do For The Office and the Town It is known to only a few that the Earlington postoffice came so close to entering the Presidental class the last year About 40 more added to the receipts of the year ending with the past quarter would have resulted in the transfer of this other into the pres idental class with all the advant ages that would accrue to the post master and the town The lowest salary paid to a postmaster in that class is rooo and an allowance is 40Ioffice occupied In the fourth classI postoffice the salary is less and there is now allowance for clerk hire or rent It is easy therefore to sea how important it is that all letter mail should be cancelled by the postmaster so that it may go to the credit of the office A rule was recently promulgated by the post office department authorizing pbst masters to cancel stamps on letters handed in to the mail car at their stations and to take credit therefor But for some reason this rule has been revoked and the postmaster now as before suffers the loss of revenue entailed by the mailing of letters on the train instead of through his office While the rule above referred to was in force our postmaster kept account by months of the stamps cancelled by him at the train and the record shows very conclusively that if he could get these collect ions for the twelve months the Earlington office would go into the prcsidental class with a whoop Nobody has any personal reason or desire to curtail our postmasters revenue but on the contrary all wish it might be as great as possi ble And moreover our local pride and interest in the towns welfare is sufficient aside from all other reasons to induce us to do all we can to help advance theC Earlington postoffice to the presi dental class Let us all make it a point to take our letters to the postoffico the postmaster will acv cept and mail them right up to the time lot the trains arrivalor hand them to him on his way to the mail car instead of ourselves putting them in the car Yellow Jaundice Cured Suffering humanity should be supplied
