thought the fact strange, but was
very much surprised one day when
Mr. VIM. Cowan, who at that time
was living in Nashville but who came
over on visit TO his family, handed
him a letter intended for him and
directed to "Capt. Jack Cowan, Hop
kinsville, KY" butwhich address had
been changed and forwarded from
this office to "Capt. VIM. Cowan", at
Nashville, to the one it was not in
tended for. Whence comes this au-
thority to change the address on any
ones letter, and more especially in
case where the names are nothing
alike? We guess Mr.. Mckenzie will
deny this fact, but if he wants the
proof we have it.
what we have already published
does not satisfy Mr.. Mckenzie that
he has made very inefficient post
master, we have still more facts we
will be able TO give at any time.

Semi-weekly south Kentuckian. [volume] (Hopkinsville, Ky.) 1883-1889, 1888-04-03

a bill has been introduced provid-
ing for the location and erection of the
fourth Lunatlc Asylum in this State.
In the bill 100000 is appropriated
for the purchase of land and erection
of an asylum sufficient to accommo-
date three hundred and fifty in
mates. The asylum is to be located
at some suitable point near Owens
borO, by commission to be appoint
ed by the Governor. That a fourth
asylum is needed in the State is dem
onstlated conclusively by the reports
from the other three that they have
all the inmates that they can care
for now, and there is daily demand
for more room at these institutions
as new patients are constantly being
brought to them for admission, ant
of necessity some ofthem are refused
And then it is a fact that the numbe
cured and returned home during th
period of year is only about thre
fourths of the number sent to th
asylums during the same period.
Semi-weekly south Kentuckian. [volume] (Hopkinsville, Ky.) 1883-1889, 1888-04-03

Irwin Young, who works in the
shop, and who can read and write,
states that he first noticed the stamp
being marked over and called Nc
Callen's attention to it.
Chas, Saunders, the boot black,
says he never had lead pencil, and
would not know what 10 do with one
if he had it, and further states that
he would not know a "receiving
stamp" were he to find one in the
street, and he being the only boy in
the shop, it would have been impossi-
BILE for the marking TO have been done
by "the boys" as Mr.. Mckenzie
states.
The next charge, that of Mrs.
Moore's photographs being found out
in the back yard by the colored boy,
he admits to be true, so we will not
have to prove this charge. He says :
81 only wish TO show by this that
the KENTUcKIAN is ready to make
any kind of reckless statement about
the post-office, and to show us up in
a very bad light by catching up and
publishing mere rumors OH the street.
What he said about the post-oilice
key being lost and the delivery OF
the mail being delayed till late
hour in the day is exaggerated and
untrue. The key was not lost at all.
Mr.. Randle was sick that morning
and did not come to the office. / got
there few minutes after the usual
time for opening and as soon as
could walk out and get the key the
office was opened, which could not
have exceeded half or three-quar-
ters of an hour. 1t will be borne in
mind, too, that those having lock
boxes can get their mail at any time,
which means about three-fourths OF
the business done in this office"
We think the people will conclude
that Mr.. Mckenzie is the one who
makes reckless statements, and that
they will further conclude that we
have not published rumors but facts,
which we have proven to be true.
As to the post-oflice key, being lost,
was an error, but the effect was just
the same on the people, as they were
compelled to wait until late in the day
for their mail that arrived the night
before at 10 p. NJ. and 5 A. III. that
morning.
True Mr.. Randle was sick, and he
generally comes to the office about
7 o'clock. Mr.. Mckenzie generally
comes down about o'clock, and had
no key to the Office, so he was com
PEELED to go to the residence of VIM.
Campbell, the clerk, to get key aud
as he admits il consumed three-quart-
ers of an hour, you can make youl
own calculation what time of day the
people were served with their mail,
Admit the fact that he was down
as early as Z o'clock, it would have
made the time about s o'clock before
the mail that arrived at a. m. was
delivered.
On the morning Mr.McRenzie's ar
ticle appeared in the New Era, we
walked up to the office and handed
him letter belonging to r. A. Rog-
ers, that he had placed in our box.
On the same day he wrote the article
for the New Era, we found our Clarks-
vile Tobacco Leaf on the editorial Ia
BILE of the New Era Office and had
been mutilated by the editorial scis
sors.
We viii also mention that a postal
card was mailed at Gordonsville,

the Long, Garnett & Co. case are

into print yet they felt it their duty
to give a plain statement of facts. \

Importance, but TO Mr.. Mckenzie
these are only small matters. 1t was
of sufficient importance TO the firm to
forward by express in order not to
take any further risks through our
aJlV conducted post-oilice,
The next charge the gentleman
handles with reckless assertion is the
letter of II. IL. McCallen, the barber
that laid in the office 46 days, and
had the receiving stamp marked over
