COUNTY UNIT AND STATE
WIDE PROHIBITION.
He fore tliere is another issue of the
Umax the Kentucky Legislature will
have adjourned, havm? been in session
' liajs. as allowed by law. and its acts
will have become a part of history. Two
ti ;i only we wish to briefly mention in
this article. hie is an amendment to
ih- County I'nit law. known as the 'lt
'-r cent. oi'.l. allow ing - cent, of the
voters o'i any county to call an election,
instead of per cent, of the voters of
icli precinct. Tlie bill has passed both
Ii')um' and now awaits the signature of
t !,e overnor. The friends cf local o
t ion ottered the bill and supported it; the
anti-local optionists opposing it. An-
ih r bill was ollered involving the
luestion of State-wide prohibition. This
t ill parsed in the lower house two to
one in its favor, the "wets'' opposing it
aiid the "drvs" favoring it. It has been
failed in the Senate and placed upon the
calendar. It now rests with the Rules
'ommittee to call it up for a vote, or to
pigeon-hole i:, just as they see lit. Tei
i'rams Ly the hundreds from all over
the tate are being sent to Senators, ask
iiijr them 10 support it.- Several Sena
tors, it is said, have received as many as
l." telegram each of this kind. If its
friends can brinj: it to a vote, there is
i ii tie doubt as to its passage. It may be
ide-t racked, however. 'ertain it is thai
it opponents will leave no stone unturn
-d and will resort to every political trick
i hat man or devil can think of to defeat
it on both of these bills Madison coun
ty's representative voted with the "wets '
1' is said that when Mr. While was seek
ir.tr the nomination in the primary elec
i ion the Ant i-Saloon League of the State
attempted to defeat him: passed the
word around that Mr. White must be
beaten: that either Mr. Miller or Mr.
t'lay would be acceptable, but by no
leans Mr. White. If this is true, it is
but hum-in nature that Mr. Whiteshould
now seek to even matters and vote as
he did. Our conception of a county's
representative is that he poes there to
represent his people; to advocate such
measures as tie is asked to i by his
const rtuents. or as he believes his con
stituency would wish him to support.
We deeply regret that Madison's repre
sentative could not rise above his per
sonal feelings and vote the sentiment of
his home people, as he well 1 nos. on
these two questions The pHp'e of Mad
ison county thought it not necessary lo
a"k or even suggest to him how o vo e.
'J'hey thought lie aire dv well knew how
they stood. Was Mr. White mistaken,
or did he simply ail jw his pefeonal feel
ings to control his ideas of duty t; his
people We had almost said did he be
tray a irust? Rut no, we don't believe
lliat: don't want to b-lieve it ; won't be
l.eve it. We have known John White
io long: have known his bigness tf
heart: his loyally to his friends too well.
We cannot believe that John While
would deliberately betray a trust.

Resolutions of Respect.
WiiEHEAs. In the course of human
events, again we have been called upon
to pay noble deference and loving tribute
to one of our most worthy and greatly
beloved members. Rro Hugh R. Tevis,
that splendid citizen who fell from his
high place among living' men, and who
sleeps now in peace and honor amidst
the scenes of his childhood, surrounded
by the people whom he so dearly loved
and nobly served.
Whekkas, In the demise of lirother
Tevis, whose death occurred at the Good
Samaritan llopiul. Lexington, on Mon
day, March ', 1911, at .1 o'clock p. in.,
after a lingering illness of several months
from that dread malady, cancer, we have
seen the mighty multitude of mourners
gather at his bier, and borne witness to
tlie deep love and grief with which he
was lowered into his last earthly abode,
lirother Tevis possessed a charity that
hopeth all things, ami left a life-count
closed that is a credit to himself and
an honor to his fJiends; for, in every re
lation of life he proved himself, in the
highest and best sense, a man. Firm
and sincere in his convictioas; true to
his friends; liberal toward his opponents;
conscientious in the discharge of every
duty, he surely deserved and doubtless
has received the highest reward that
can be bestowed on mortal or angel, the
final decree of the Judge of all living.
"Well done thou good and Taiihful ser
vant;" therefore, be it
Resolved, Thai we, the members of
Xormal City Lodge, Xo. Iti'l, Knights of
Pythias, of Richmond, have been de
prived of one of our most loyal and de
voted members and sustained a sad and
irreparable loss in the death of Brother
Tevis, and we humbly bow our heads in
deep grief and reverential sorrow.
Resolved, That we tender our deepest
sympathy to his sorrowing relatives and
friends; that a copy of these resolutions
be spread on the Minutes of our Lodge;
that a copy bo sent to Kentucky Pythian
for publication, and same te published
in one of the local papers.
