and other nimrods, who take delight
in extracting the fnDy tribe from
the aqueous fluid, | will explain how
the thing is done. The herring is
the fish mostly found in the day and
they usually go in shoals and seek
the shady places about the wharf.
The azure tinted water is SO clear
and limpid that you can count the
pebbles lying on the bottom in water
ten feet deep and of course the fish
can be seen as plainly as the water
itself. Sometimes you will see a
shoal filling space as large as an
ordinary room, tho thousands of fish
composing it varying in length from
four to ten inches. The fisherman
lowers line into the water with a
weight to tho end and half a dozen
hooks scattered along up the line
without any bait on them. When
the tish crowd together and sur
round the line, he gives quick jerk
and rarely ever fails 10 catch one or
two. lie is just as apt to hang
them in one part of the body
as another and soon catches all he
cares to carry home. The herring
though is very poor fish and there
is more fun than profit in catching
them. The really fine table fish are
caught outside the bay in the ocean
by professional fishermen. am told
that the founder is the favorite with
epicures. But did not start out to
discuss the merits Of fish, which
would be an inexhaustable and illimi.
table subject, so l will return to my
theme.
Notwithstanding the apparent very
general disregard Of Sabbath observ-
ance, it is to the credit of San Diego
to say that it is upon the, whole an
orderly and law abiding city. There
are few fights, or disturbances and
while "hold ups" and theft are pref
ty frequent in certain localities, the
police are vigilant and most of the of
Tenders are run in" sooner or later.
1t must also be taken to account that
this city has sprung up like mush-
room and that there are great many
adventures and lawless characters
about the place and that 1t will take
patience aud perseverance to place
the city upon the higher planes of
morality charact erizing older and
smaller towns in the East. Isuppose

NO TIME FOR DELAY,
For the Longer We Wait the
Worse Things Get.

We feel IT our duty 10 come TO the
assistance of the New Era IN its fight
for the reputation of our city, and for
a renewed interest on the part of our
Council and police. The reputation
IIopkinsvle has gained outside of
her limits, though somewhat exag-
gerated, yet the facts are sufficient to
bring shame TO every citizen who
feels an interest in the city's welfare.
There is nothing that can be done
without an effort, and whenever the
Council take as deep interest in the
welfare of our city as her newspapers,
then you will see change. What
other motive could the papers have
than desire to see Hopkinsville
stand as model city from which 9TH
ers may take pattern, rather than
have them point the finger of censure
at her government 1t is not through
the desiIe to incur the Ill feelings of
those whose actions are criticised, or
to have those criticised attribute it to
personal spite. As long as any one
holds public office, whose salary is
paid by the people, and they recog-
nize that such officer is derelict in
duty the right Of fault finding should
be extended them.
Too much blame should not be at
tached to the police, for they are
physically able 10 do what's required,
if only some systematized plan Of
operation was in force As long as
sort of go as-you-please. and where
you-please, stay-as-long-as-yO
please, movement governs the actions
of our police, just so long will things
move in the same old ruts. If the
police had head to report to, say an
especial Police Commissioner, Sc
lected from the Council, who had the
city's interests at heart, and empow-
er him to examine each policeman as
to whether he is thoroughly ac-
quainted with the city charter and
the ordinances TO be violated; map
out certain portions of the city to be
walked over daily by one policeman,
and not have two together unless
necessary to render each other assist
essary as 10 tie 1ff alhi Hs often as nee
duty and to the number of arrests
made for the violation of each ord-
nance; to spur them up and more
closely direct them TO watch certain
points overlooked; and above all |
things recommend that they recog-
nize no friendship when it comes 10
a violation of the law.
We merely throw out these sug-
gestions, which, we believe, if car
ried out will greatly improve the
present state of things. More system
is what is needed and makes 1t some
body's business to see TO things. No
sensible person cares anything about
whether a policeman is Republican
or Democrat, for politics should not
be known in city government, but
the community should be joined to-
gether for its upbuilding.
We want every citizen who feels
any interest whatever in the future
of Hopkinsville, TO bend his energies
and influence for an improvement,
for as long as our city is content with
the present state of things, she will
remain just where she is, but when
a little more enterprise and pride ia
infused into her citizens you will |
see Hopkinsville bigger success
than was ever anticipated.

Our People and the 0. Y,
Railroad.

What is 10 be done by tho o. V.
Company must be done at once as
our people recognize the fact that the
year is slipping away, and no signs
of another road. They are deter.
mined on doing something and that
at once, SO if the o. V. is coming she
had better show some signs.

II you will remember, a few years ago the
word " malaria was comparatively I'M
known-to-day it is as common as any
word in the English language-yet this
word covers only the meaning of another

So 1t is with nervous diseases, as they and
malaria are intended to cover what our
grandiathers called biliousness, and all are
caused by troubles that arise from a dis
eased condition of the liver, which, in per
forming its functions, finding it cannot dis
pose of the bile through the ordinary chan
mel, is compelled to pass it off through the
system, causing nervous troubles, malaria.
