MILLER, was born on a farm two miles east of HORTON, OHIO COUNTY OCTOBER 6 1850. When quite young his parents died, leaving him to struggle along as best he could. By hard work and close application he obtained a good education and finally became a teacher in the schools of the county. On JANUARY 1 1877, he married to MISS ALICE PAXTON, a most charming lady of the Beaver Dam neighborhood. On August 17, 1889, his parner in life was taken away from him by death and he found himself alone with five motherless children, all of whom he has secceeded in raising and keeping at home and who today compose one of the most interesting and happy families in Hartford. JUDGE MILLER became a member of the Masonic fraternity when a young man and has filled almost every responsible postion in the Blue Lodge. He has always taken a lively interesst in the political affairs of his county and stands high with all political parties as a man of ability and fair dealing. He first affilitated with the Republican party, but he came disatisflied with that party and went into the oganization of the Populist party and was twise nominated for the office by the Popalist party without any sollisiration on his part and over his protest. He was noninated by the Polulist and Democrats of Ohio County for COUNTY JUDGE in the year 1897 and though the entire fusion ticket was defeated except himself he won by a bare majority. In the mean time he became identified with the Democratic party both by act and belief and so acceptably did he conduct the business of the county and his office that the Democrats nominated him for re-election by the largest majority evr given any canddate in a county convention. In the general election tht folloed while his opponent had nerly 100 majority to strt with JUDGE MILLER overcame that majority receiving the support of many of the leading Republicans of the county. His was the larget vote ever cast for a County Judge in this county. In religion Judge Miller is an ardent Baptist and an enthusiatic church worker. When the Ohio County Baptist Association was organized here in September he was chosen Assistant Moderator, without oppostion. He is at present Assistant Superintendent of the Baptist Sunday School at Hartford and also a teacher in the same. During the late long and tedious campaign, he was absent but one Sunday from his class. In fact Judge Miller is one of Ohio County’s most respeced citizens and a christion gentelman of the first class it gives us pleasure to present to our readers the above excellent likeness of him NOTE; There was a PHOTO with this story, it has been up-loaded to the OHIO CO. PHOTO PROJECT. ......................... COUNTY ATTORNEY WILLIAM H. BARNES, was born on a farm near HARTFORD, KY. NOVEMBER 30 1870. He is the son of R. W. and FANNIE B. BARNES and is the eldest of ten children. Mr. Barnes attended public schools until the fall of 1889, when he entered HARTFORD COLLEGE and attended two sessions 80-90 , 91-92 at which time he received two collegiate degrees. B. S. at close of the first term and PH B. at the close of the second term. Mr. Barnes was one of the contestants inthe oratorical contest between the members of the Scientific Philisophis and the Classical departments which took place close of the last seccion he attended .

In this contest he was adjuded the winner of the prize.... $50.00 gold. After leaving college, he taught in the public schools for two year. He was marrieed AUGUST 30 1893 to MISS ADA R. PATTON, daughter of MR. and MRS. J. H. PATTON. To them have been born two children, both boys. The first child, STOY LYNN , died at the age of six weeks.

After some time of close application he was admitted to practice law. on December 1, 1893. He moved to Hartford in the spring of 1895. Besides a successful career as a lawyer he has held the office of CITY ATTORNEY and also that of POLICE JUDGE of Hartford. He is a member of the Methodist church. Mr. Barnes has always taken an active interst in politics and is a strong Democrat. He was eleected County Attorney on the Demoratie ticket at the recent election. November 5 1901 and assumed the duties of his office last Monday. Mr. Barnes is a gentleman of high ideas and is very popular throughout the county.
