County election dulls and press changes in 1901
A Lawrence county paper notes low turnout in a local judicial election and critiques public spending, graft tactics, and administration. It reports Mrs. McKinley’s illness, the sale and looming name change of the Democrat-Herald, and tributes to Charley from the editorial staff. It highlights machine labor savings, school exam notices, and local public notices for bridges, county bids, and church renovations, ending with obituaries and local notices.
