Vonnie Kolbenschlag: The stone faces on courthouse columns

And a happy coincidence, Columbus Stone, the talented sculptor, is the likely builder of the law offices for The Garnett's - Jr. and Sr. - the very same building where Columbia's current City Attorney, Dustin Warren is now located at 400 Public Square, Columbia, and where, Friday at 12pmNoonCT, there will be a ribbon cutting and Open House.
Click on headline for complete story

By Vonnie Kolbenschlag

I believe the carved faces are of William Henry Hudson and his wife Mary.

William H. Hudson was one of the contractors for the courthouse when it was built. He was also very active in establishing the county fair and gave 19 acres for the fairgrounds. Mary was involved, too, furnishing meals for the fair. The first fair in Columbia was held in 1884 - same year the historic courthouse was begun.

On page 22 of the "Adair County Fair, 1884-1984" there is a photo of Hudson that looks very much like the carving on the column of the courthouse, most likely done by his partner, Columbus Stone, a mason and talented sculptor. AND, to his credit, I think, Stone gave recognition to Mary, Hudson's wife.

Being a building contractor, it is likely he also built the now refurbished and looking wonderful building where our new city attorney Dustin Warner has offices. It was built for The James Garnetts - Jr. and Sr. They were attorneys in Columbia.

James Garnett Jr. was state attorney general from 1913-1919 The younger Garnett also had a real estate office in this building. It has had many uses over the years.

Old isn't obsolete - it's versatile!

Kentucky Color - Dairy Farmer's Plight

"Right now, Dairy Farmers are faced with 1970's prices for their milk and 2018 operational expenses. They will weather this storm like they have weathered so many storms before but they need our support and encouragement." - BILLY JOE FUDGE
Click on headline for complete commentary with poem, "Rubber Boots," written in honor of dairy farmers everywhere, but especially on Sparks Ridge, Adair County, KY

By Billy Joe Fudge, President, Homeplace on Green River

My Dad was a Dairy Farmer for most of his adult life and he and I farmed together during my youth the first 20 years of my employment with the Kentucky Division of Forestry.

I know what a rewarding life dairy farming is and also, when milk prices are low, what a horror it can be to work from 4 AM to 10 PM seven days a week while losing hundreds of dollars a week for months and months!

2018 Primary Turnout statewide abysmal; spirited in 7-Counties

For turnout in all 120 counties, by county, see: VOTER TURNOUT

By ColumbiaMagazine.com politics staff

Turnout across Kentucky was abysmally low. Just 23.54% bothered to take advantage of a sacred right, according to the State Board of elections website.

But in the CM 7-County area voters did much better. A quick scan shows these turnout results:
  1. Cumberland County, 51% turnout (2nd highest, Monroe #1, in state)
  2. Casey County, 43.42% turnout
  3. Metcalfe County, 41.41% turnout
  4. Russell County, 39.44% turnout
  5. Adair County, 37.89% turnout
  6. Green County, 34.97% turnout
  7. Taylor County, 34.90% turnout
While local races affect the turnout - and it's heartening to see the results here are higher than statewide, shouldn't the numbers be closer to 95% - ideally 100%. What measures would you suggest to improve the situation? - CM See: COUNTIES REPORTING for information turnout with information on registration in each county and more.
