BULLETIN. DAILY, EXCEPT SUNDAY. ROSSER McCARTHY, Proprietors. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 1, 1899. INDICATIONS--Fair to night; rain Thursday; warmer.

WONDER how some of the gentlemen who profess to believe that there was nothing the matter with that canned beef would like to use it themselves for a month or such a matter? THE Public Ledger is decidedly mistaken in the statement it published Tuesday in regard to the Louisville Dispatch. The "free silver organ" is not in the hands of a rec and is not likely to be any ways soon, if ever. The efforts of certain "gold bug" shysters and trickstere to wreck the paper have not proved successful. THERE seems to be a disposition among Lewis County Republicans to ignore the edict of the Boss. The "suggestion" by the Vanceburg Sun of W.

B. Pugh for State Senator is not received favorably by the other aspirants and their friends. Hon. A. Dud Pollitt and Dr.

Bowman are both being urged to enter the race. Put your money, however, on Congressman Pugh's nephew, if you put it on any one. Two OF the Democratic candidates for Governor should at once call a halt on some of their editorial supporters. It should be remembered that the contest for the nomination is a party fight, and all animosity and bitterness should be eliminated. There is danger of the candidates becoming involved in such a wrangle that party success will demand that they be "laid on the shelf." SENATOR PETTIGREW in speaking of resolutions recently adopted by the Legislature of South Dakota, gives warning to the g.

o. p. leaders, "that the people of South Dakota at least are preparing to leave the Republican party, as they differ from it on every principal on which it is founded." He says "these resolutions indicate the drift of Republican sentiment in the West, which is opposed to the policy of imperialism, the policy of expansion and the policy of plutocracy." HON. C. B.

POYNTZ Will Enter the Congressional Race if Pugh Should be Appointed Federal Judge. Col. A. Fox Respass, of Mayeville, who was for a number of years in the State Auditor's office a at Frankfort, was at the Emery. If Judge Pugh, who holds the certificate of election to Congress from our district by eleven majority, is appointed Federal Judge to succeed Judge John W.

Barr, resigned," said Col. Respass, "Hon. Charles B. Poyntz, of Maysville, will immediately announce himself a candidate for Congress, and we have no doubt whatever that he will be nominated, as he is well known throughout the district and very popular. He has no enemies, and would go into the race with no handicap of any description.

He has had valuable experience in public affairs which would fit him to start off advantageously at once in the discharge of congressional duties, having served with credit as State Senator and State Railroad Commissioner. He is in the full vigor of young, matured manhood, and is a party worker who deserves recognition at the hands of his fellow Democrats. Give him the nomination and there will be no trouble about his election. Judge Pugh is a prime favorite with President McKinley, and to be appointed Federal Judge is the ambition and pride of his life. Besides, his father-in-law, ex-Congressman Morgan Thomas, now Solieitor of the Internal Revenue at Washington, stands close to the Administration and ll be a potent backer." River News.

The Stanley is due down to-night from Pomeroy. The Keystone State will pass down this evening. She left Pittsburg loaded to the guards. A coalboat stage is expected at Pittsburg all week, and shipments will likely be sent out daily. Enquirer: "When the Government survey of the Ohio river is made one of the important things that should be done is.

to locate a line of ice harbors, not farther apart than a towboat on the down-stream run can travel in daylight. They should be spacious, with plenty of lights and hitching posts. The need of these things has been expensively demonstrated during the last three weeks." THE three-story brick warehouse, No. 124 Market street, property of Mrs. Mary T.

Maria (Savage) Swinney Passed Away at Glasgow, Mo. -Was a Daughter of Rev. James Savage. Mrs. Maria Caroline Swinney, wife of Rev.

James Oswald Swinney, died at her home in Glasgow, on Saturday morning, January 21, 1899. She was the daughter of Rev. James Savage and wife, and was born in Germantown, Mason County, Kentucky, June 22, 1832. After receiving a good common school education at home, she graduated at a college in Hillsboro, Ohio. She was married to our loved and bereaved Brother Swinney, November 10th, 1852.

They commenced their separate home life the following spring, on what was then known as the Hazel Ridge farm, on which is situated the present village of Steinmetz. Here the lived for a number of years, and here were born their two children, Annie and Billy. These were years which passed too soon away, yet left behind them many pleasant memories. In 1857, and after her husband had joined the church, she became a teacher in the Sabbath school in Glasgow, and served as such, regularly and faithfully, until the failure of her health, a few years ago. Her health was never good, and she was often laid up in great pain; but according to her strength her life was passed in doing all the good she conld to othere, especially to the poor and needy.

The motherly nature in her was exceedingly strong, and having but two children of her own, her heart seemed to go out to all other children. She gladly joined her husband in caring for orphan and though feeble herself, she loved to foster them and to care for them. She never failed to win the love of all the children with whom she came in contact, 80 that their home in the country was sometimes called by others the orphan's home. So strong and quick was her sympathy with children, that they often seemed to infuse new life into her, and no doubt thus prolonged her own life many years. When by a sudden and violent attack of scarlet fever, she lost her own little boy, at the age of five and a half years, her grief was so great as to be almost insupportable.

She found no comfort till one day having fallen asleep, in the room in which he died, she felt conscious that he was with her, that he pressed a kiss on her lips, with his arms clasped around her neck. She never doubted to her dying day, that it was a vision sent of God to aseure her that Billy lived and loved her still. The years passed on and Annie, dear Annie, whom we all honor and loved so well, had grown up, had finished her Academic course in one school here, had married under most favorable auspices, and was settled in life with the fairest earthly prospects. Before three years, however, her earthly life was closed, by a malignant attack of typhoid fever. She left as a precious charge to her family, a little girl, Berenice Scarritt, about the age of fifteen months.

In March of last year, she had a slight stroke of paralysis, from the effects of which she never entirely recovered; 80 that this month, while suttering from an attack of grip, and a second heavier stroke of paralysis came, she never fully rallied. She was, however, partially conscious, and by a look of yearning love, and a pressure of the hand was able to show her recognition of some of the loved ones round her bed, especially of her adopted son and daughter, Frank and Mary, now grown and married, of whom she took charge when little children, as well as of her loved nephew, Oswald Barton. To these, even this faint recognition will always be a priceless memory. At times she faintly recognized other dear friends, who ministered to her in her last hours but could convey no expression of her love. Her husband was confined by severe illness in another room, and could not be present when the end came.

HAVING an unusually large stock of spoons, forks and fancy pieces in sterling silver goods, I have decided to offer these goods at cost to reduce the stock. Now is time to buy these goods if you are in need of them. Nothing sold for less than cost, and at prices that goods are marked. They are sold only for cash. MURPHY, the jeweler.

Discovered by a Woman. Another great discovery has been made, and that too, by a lady in this country. "Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for seven years she withstood its severest tests, but her vital organs were undermined and death seemed imminent. incessantly, For three months she coughed and could not sleep. She finally discovered way to recovery, by New purchasing of u8 a bottle of Dr.

King's Discovery for consumption, and was so much relieved on taking first dose, that she slept all night; and with two bottles, has been absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther Lutz." Thus writes W. C. Hamnick of Shelby, N.

McLAUGHLIN, son of Judge McLaughlin, of Covington, and a nephew of Mrs. Robert Ficklin, of this city, died Monday morning at Charlotte, near Asheville, N. somewhat unexpectedly. He had been in failing health for some time. Deceased was thirty-one years of age and he leaves a widow with two children.

His remains will be interred at Covington, PUGH ENDORSES COCHRAN. The Federal Judgeship Contest Still Enlivening Kentucky Affairs at Washington City. WASHINGTON, February Pugh announced to-day that he had withdrawn from the Kentucky Judgeship fight. A gentleman who called at the White House in his intereet was informed by the President that he was not willing to have his majority decreased in the House by appointing Mr. Pugh.

Mr. Pugh and Solicitor Thomas at once indorsed Judge A. M. J. Cochran, of Mayeville, for the Judgeship.

This indorsement has raised a row among the Evans followers. They claim that Mr. Pugh and Mr. Evans had an agreement by which Pugh was to indorse Evans should he keep out of the race, and vice versa. Judge Cochran, however, is from Mr.

Pugh's district, so even if there was an agreement a good excuse for breaking it is offered. Arrangements have been made for Senator Deboe to see the President and talk the matter over to-morrow. It is probable that something will then be forthcoming about the present much-muddled condition of affairs. The Senator, will urge the appointment of Attorney General Taylor. It is learned to-day that Senator Deboe is more opposed to the appointment of Judge Cochran than that of Col.

Evane, and in the event the contest is narrowed down between the two he will indorse the latter. To-night the Senator's friends believe Taylor will carry off the honors, and are figuring on second choice, like Judge Holt or Dan Lindsey, of Frankfort. The Evans followers are still pointing to the turndown of Senators Cullom and Mason, of Illinois, last week, and saying that the President may decide to do as he pleases and appoint Evane.

Good Horses Will Soon be a Searce Article in This Section--Money in Breeding to Fine Stock. EA Mr. Sanford C. Carpenter shipped from Wells Biggers' stable Tuesday a fine lot of horses and mares purchased in this neighborhood. They go to Atlanta, Ga.

This means a distribution of several thousand dollars among the farmere, and Mr. Carpenter will be here again about the middle or the last of the month and will continue to make monthly visits, in addition to the other horse buyers, and it will be but a short time until good horses will be very scarce. As a natural result prices must go up. In view of this fact would it not be wise for farmers who own good brood mares to breed them to some of the fine saddle or coach horses, as such horses are always in demand and if sound and all right bring good prices? Don't wait until it is too late; give the matter consideration now. Due notice will be given through Wells Biggers of Mr.

Carpenter's next visit. CALL and see our clover and timothy seed. Choice quality. Prices right. J.

Fortunately a friend advised trying Electric Bitters, and to my great joy and surprise, the first bottle made a decided improvement. I continued their 1180 for three weeks and am now a well man. I know they saved my life and robbed the grave of another victim." No one should fail to try them.

Honest Advertising The Only Kind That Pays. We don't advertise as much as the older clothing houses. We try not to do it in the same way. We want our ads to look honest, because they are honest. We know that unless we back up our honest advertising with honest goods at honest prices, whether these prices are regular prices or cut prices, the advertising will do more eventual harm than present good.

We started this business on these principles, and we've made a great start. We're going to keep on this way to greater success. We invite you here to see, and when you buy, if for any reason you get dissatisfied, bring back our goods and get your money. Now we let profits go to make goods go. The bane of most Clothing stores is old stock and we are determined at all hazards to have none.

This end can be accomplished in but one way, move the winter goods now! How? By cutting prices -cutting prices without counting the cost in loss of profits. We can better afford to do business at a loss for a short time than to come to spring loaded with winter stocks. So off with the profits and out with the goods--new, clean, up-to-date, high grade goods, such as no other house in Maysville can show, at prices lower than others ask for old goods. It's to go as long the as necessity exists. Suits and Overcoats one of a kind cost will not be considered.
