Peafowl at large on Guthrie Street Mark Royse writes: There are two peacocks which keep appearing in my mother's lot behind her house on Guthrie Street. I haven't been able to capture a picture of them, but I do know that Dr. Rogers has seen them, too. Not sure where they came from, but they have been here for about two weeks. - Mark RoyseMark: Thanks. I have seen these same fowl foraging on our mighty fertile one-acre farm on Town Creek. When they left, they took a path across the Russell Arnold Pasture Field and headed for Guthrie Street. I figured they might belong to J. D. Montgomery, Joe Moore, or Dr. Ronald P. Rogers, the kind of people you'd take for fancy peafowl fanciers. Are they theirs? Is there a big re-ward? We'd love to have photos to share on CM or to get any bounty there is on the birds. -EW 2011-08-28 21:19:55 | Comments | Printable version
Billy Joe Fudge asks about front of Cardinal Inn Building Comments re photo 41622 Cardinal Inn 1942 successor to White Castle InnBilly Joe Fudge writes: On top of the building of the Cardinal Inn is that some sort of facade? Looks like a giant layered wedding cake. -Billy Joe FudgeThanks. Perhaps a reader can find a photo to share of the front of the building before it was remodeled when Garnett Young moved Paull Drug from 134 Public Square to 100 Public Square and changed the name to Young's Rexall. Before that, the layer cake was in place and I believe the business which occupied the building was called Motor Electric or Motor & Electric or some variation. Perhaps it was a different sequence. Perhaps someone versed in architecture can speak to the style. -EW 2011-08-28 21:02:33 | Comments | Printable version

Charles Marshburn maintains national chains not stupid Comments re article 46498 Anonymous says Adair County is not a wet county Charles Marshburn writes: Those restaurants named previously do things legally.They're not stupid! - Charles MarshburnThanks. Mr. Marshburn for your letter; however, it is so righteous it could get one recycled through the Adair Assimilation Academy. I WILL be reporting it to Dr. Johnny Vaughan. It's my civic duty. For all intents and purposes, the law here is Adair County Common Law. None of this francofied Napoleonic Code here. One of the greatest voices ever lifted in defense of the poor and oppressed in Adair County, the late, great Attorney Ralph Hurt, once said, "Every county needs at least one respectable bootlegger." Since prohibition, Adair County has benefited from the services of perhaps the nation's most respectable bootleggers. Or so I've been told. -EW 2011-08-28 15:29:46 | Comments | Printable version

JIM: 110 Years ago: Columbia Fair had ended on August 23, 1901 Pronounced a success, and, without saying it, A Good Time Was Had by All at the 1901 Columbia Fair. In the rough and tumble frontier Adair County, virtually as rowdy as Corydon, Indiana, was in early riverboat days, decorum prevailed despite the unruly behavior of a view mischief makers. In a scene worthy of nominations for Outdoor Dramas as a Magnet for Canadian Tour Busses, four beautiful little girls stepped to the tune of Goo Goo Eyes the immortal popular song of the day, and captivated the 1,500 massed for the event. The 1901 Adair County Fair: a piece of cake(walk) The 1901 Columbia Fair ended on Friday, August 23rd, and the next edition of the News devoted the lion's share of the ink to that worthy event. As always, folks from all parts of the county flocked to the Fair, and several mentions made of the out of town visitors. One short piece noted there were far too many visitors to mention by name, while another summed it up nicely: "They were here by the hundreds."

Another progressive speaks up for White Castle John Nall agrees with Kristy Keene in the burgeoning controversy engulfing peaceful Columbia, KY, in the ongoing battle for America and White Castles vs. Iconoclastic Unsavory Culinary Elitism.

I do agree, if WC did open here, they would be pleasantly surprised. - John NallThanks. John Nall for agreeing with Kristy Keene and standing for The Right in what seems to be a divisive issue, which threatens to the very tranquillity of our county, splitting it right down the middle like a cooking knife in a ripe watermelon.

Rowena, Russell Co. native W.T. McFarland, was de facto Mayor of Columbia, KY Before 1921, when Columbia became a fifth class city, the "Mayor" was the city councillor who received the highest number of votes in the election for that office. And there was a time when a five-member board was elected with four members from districts, and one at large. Today, the City of Columbia is a Fourth Class City, with Mayor and 6 member council elected, at large About: JIM: Chicken 1, Snake 0 By "Jim" Written in response to question from factotum, CM Mr.W.T. McFarland was indeed Mayor of Columbia. He was a native of Rowena, Russell County (far outside the bounds of the Sacred Triangle, I fear), but being a man of above-average sagacity, he early in life recognized Columbia as place of enlightenment -- a beacon of light and center of moral rectitude -- and removed himself thereto. He was a mason by trade, and, as I recall, did the stonework for what is now the L.R. McDonald Administration Building.
