We hope that the committee
of the Fairview Farmers Club
who have charge of the print
ing Of the descriptive pamphlet
Of Idaho county will remem-
Der that the FREE PRESS Office
is a home institution, and that
while we do not profess to be
able to work as cheaply as out
side Offices, yet the small diff
ference in price will be more
than made up in many ways.
We know that by common re-
putc the F. P. is reported to
be making more money than
anybody, and we are therefore
not supposed to care whether
the work comes our way or
not. This is grievous error.
AS a matter Of fact the +. p.
has not paid its editor a dollar
u day from the date Of its es-
Enlistment, in June, 1886.
And it is gospel truth that
the paper would have suspend
ed longago had itnot been sus-
tanned by repeated drafts on
the editors private resources.
All this, of course, is nobo-
dy's business but our own.
And yet, in view Of the hard
times which has afflicted the
f. 7. in common with every
body else, and the prevailing
scarcity of money, it seems as
though some small discrimina-
ton might be made under the
circumstances in favor of a
home industry whose success
is bound up in yours, as a.
gainst the alien outsider who
has nothing in common with
you. Look over the F. p and
see how badly it needs new
type. Very nearly the same
amount of money which the
committee would send away to
an outside publisher would, if
disbursed through the f. P.
not only give them their pam
phlet, but would also enable
the editor to buy new type,
thus making the same sum of
money do double duty. The
F. P. is not an object of public
charity, but money is now so
scarce and collections are so
difficult that this pamphlet
fund-raised by public sub
scripsion-should, in justice
to everybody be disburscd in
and through the channel
where it can do the most good
to our own home people. The
differences in the price of our
work and outside houses is
more than overbalanced by
many incidental advantages in
having work done under your
own eye.

An Episode In Court.
Fresno (cal.) Expositor.

Superior Judge Hunt Of San
Francisco is a conspicuous illustration
OF the inconsistency of tho judicial
temper. There was divorce case on
hearing in his court the other day,
when a lawyer of the name at Zalinsky,
who had been discourteous in trial
which had taken place day or two
before, wanted to make an apology.
So Barister Zalinsky arose, stopping
the wheels of the divorce mill, and
asked the Court if he might speak to it
on personal matter.
"What sort of personal matter do
you want to speak abouti" inquired
the Court.
81 want to apologize for my incivility
of day or two ago"
"Wen, l won't hear you now"
swell when will your Honor hear
met"
"Next week sometime"
And the divorce mill started up again,
bet no great Roadway had been made
toward bursting the matrimonial
chains of the litigants before the
court, when q young man and young
woman made their way to the front
and asked the Judge if he wouldn't
marry them. The austerity of the ju-
diary, who moment before was too
base to hear an apology from repent
ant attorney, ordered a recess and told
the couple that he would be only too
happy to attend TO any claims they
might present for his consideration.
The young woman was a regular
beauty. One look at her face was
enough to make Judge Hunt think
he had been struck with four sorts of
lightning. Well, he married the pair,
when the young man offered him a
twenty dollar gold piece. He pushed
the now benedict aside with a great
show of disdain, and made straight
for the bride, and didn't stop until he
had kissed her three times, taking
pains to select a new spot each time.
Lawyer Zalinsky looked on in hap
Ply frame of mind, and as soon as the
Judge resumed his seat on the bench,
asked in short-metre voice:
"Will the court hear my apology2"
"Whatl After all thisi Your i'm
prudence astounds me. If / were to
permit the majesty of the law to ex-
pend its whole force on you, I'd disbar
you and Jail you inside of three min
utes." .--
And the mill that breaks hearts and
orphans children resumed its monot-
onous movements.

fAs wAaD BILL.

Hon, VIM. Wharton introduced 0
bill Tuesday, dividing the city of Hop
kinsville into wards. This bill was
defeated in the last Legislature by a
tic vote, but there are the strongest
assurances that it will pass this time
without any formidable opposition,
For years the City Council of Hop
lkinsville has been empowered TO di-
vide the city into wards, but has re-
fused to do SO because majority Of
the wards would necessarily DO Dem
ocratic. The negroes OF the north
eastern portion of the city, who
would all have to be in one or two
wards, have been allowed to elect
Councilmen for both themselves
and the Democratic portions of
the city and thereby control the entire
city government. Hopkinsville is per-
haps the only city in Kentucky of any
considerable size not divided into
wards. The bill before the Legisla-
ture is fair and equitable division ac-
cording to area, population and prop
erty and its passage will be of meal
culable value to the city. 1t provides
for seven wards, each ward to elect its
own representative. 1t does not abol-
ish the Council and create a board OF
Aldermen, but o great many OF our
best citizens, irrespective of party,
think the bill should go further and
do this in order that the interests of
the city may not be allowed to suffer
longer under the old order of things.
The people Of Hopkinsville have made
their appeal to the Legislature in a
form and confidently ex-
pect their bill to be passed. Efforts
are being made to tack on certain
but the measure will be
passed as it is, unless the attempts of
extremists to defeat it
should bring on fight and make a
more comprehensive bill necessary.
There are 116 Democrats and p Re
publicans in the Legislature and the
will of course realize the
futility of opposing q measure that
was made party question in many
Of the Legislative districts in Western
Kentucky. Courage Democrats, he
laughs best who laughs last.
