The editor OF the Times states his
position on the Mayoralty contest by
saying "he is opposed to Sykes, the
alleged Republican candidate" AL
though the editor of the Times an
nounces that he is opposed to better
city government, he does not answer
the Leaders question as to which of
the two Independent candidates for
Mayer lie favors. By his failure to
answer this question ne virtually ad-
mits chat he is carrying water on both
shoulders.
Whomsoever the Times man sup
ports, the matter does not have much
bearing on the result. The Times
does not answer the question, and we
have quit caring to know.

The Kentuckian.

John Gilmer Speed, granddaughter
Of the poet Keats, and himself Ken
tuckian by birth and breeding, con-
tributes to the April Century a timely |
study of The Kentuckian."
When take up my morning paper
and read in great headlines Duel to
the Death or some other lurid an
nouncement to like effect, | shudder
and say to myself. Kentucky again"
Pretty nearly always--almost seven
times in ten--my forebodings are ac-
curate. Then | read of congressman
killing a constituent, a colonel killing
a lieutenant, an eX-minister to for
eign court killing an internal revenue
collector, and so on through the whole
horrible list. | must say however,
that in most instances these private
quarrels which lead to murder are
among the mountaineers, who are in
no sense the kind of Kentuckians
whose characteristics l am discussing
The mountalneers of Kentucky are, to
great extent, the descendants of the
conyicts who were sold into slavery in
colonial Virginia. and escaping from
the plantations, fed into the noun
tains, where they have continued from
generation to generation a wild and
semi-savage people at once Ignorant
and defiant CT law. Before railroads
penetrated these mountain Businesses
to bring out the iron and coal and
timber, we did not often hear of these
feuds. When we did we were not dis
turbed by them. We paid no heed to
these people and their quarrels, but,
unwisely perhaps, left them to their
own devices, upon the theory that the
more they killed of one another the
better off the world would be. News
paper extravaganza of statement is
responsible now for making each of
these encounters between mountain
eer outlaws appear to be an affair be-
sween Kentucky gentlemen. 1t is not
accurate, but insomuch as Kentucky
gentlemen do not behave with self
restraint, the result to their reputation
is in that degree not undeserved.
Even the geneltmen of the blue
grass region are careless of life, and
there is no city and few villages, in
which there does not walk free some
man with human blood upon his
hands. l will not say that such men
enjoy the entire confidenseand respect
of the whole community in the same
measure that those do who have been
! blameless in their life. But acquittal
| by a jury does, in the opinion of
many, reinstate man completely. not
only in his political rights, but in his
social privileges. Only just now we
have as candidate for governor one
who has killed his man. 1t is quite
true that very many of his own party
revolted at the idea of having for the
chief executive of the commonwealth
hands to the eXten, of killing fell
low-man. The fact, however, did not
appear to make him an entire impos-
sibility, as it no doubt would have
done in almost any other state in the
! Union. | need not go on giving
proof of the humiliating fact that in
Kentucky. even among those who hold
political and social position, there is a
singular disregard CT the sacredness of
human life. 1t is a result of their pc
culiar evolution, and the penalty must
be paid until that evolution goes a
step or so forward and makes of the
Kentuclsian something different from
what he is today

Gen. Joubert.

In the death of General Joubert the
Boer cause suffers worse afiliction
than in the loss of a great battle. A
military campaign is not so much de-
pendent upon the army or the equip
ment as on the ability of the men who
lead and the confidence they excite in
their troops. Joubert had the faith
and sympathy of his men. He was
one of the rough old warriors who
have given to the world a new type of
soldier in the Transvaal and Free
State Dutchman. Besides being a
frontiersman he was a strategist. He
knew his country, and the natural
means of defense which it afforded its
army, but he was likewise familiar
with the art of war as practiced in the
open field. He knew how to dispose
his riflemen behind the rocks, and how
to plan that the movement of the en-
emy might be offset by intelligent
strategy as well as by actual conflict
of arms.
Joubert has stood for the hardest of
the resistance the Beers have offered
the English. He was to the army
largely what President Kruger is to
the State. He was the Lee of the
South African defense, and he was the
"Stonewall' Jackson of it in his stub
born fearlessness. The surrender of
Gen. Cronje and his army was hardly
more of loss TO the Boer cause than
the death of Joubert, for while the
number of comEataIts was lessened
when Cronje gave up the unequal task,
his army was, except for himself, val
ued for its numerical strength In
Joubert the burghers lose a man who
could furnish the enthusiasm and the
hope which are absolutely essential
in winning victories. There may he
another man who can take his place,
but he has to prove himself before ey-
en- the two Republics Will accept him
as master.-Pittsburg Times.

cial Attendants by the Pennsylvania
system.
The bureau of attendants for trans
Atlantic travellers established in Jer-
sey City and New York City twenty
two years ago by the Pennsylvania
System, has proven a great conven-
ience to persons making European
trips and to tourists arriving in Amer
lea at that port. 1t will be particular
ly convenient fer visitors to the Paris
Exposition because the departure
docks of most of the Atlantic Steam
ship Lines are convenient to the Jer-
sey City Passenger Station of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company.
This bureau consists OF experienced
agents whose duties are to meet pass
engers arriving in Jersey City and
New York over the Pennsylvania
Lines and assist them in arranging for
transatlantic trips via any of the
steamship lines by conducting them to
the steamships and in aiding in prep
arations for a trip abroad.
These agents will provide cabs oper-
ated by the Pennsylvania System and
aid passengers with their baggage
They are fully posted on matter per-
tanning to steamships leaving New
York, and arrangements can be made
through them for procuring steamship
tickets in advance.
They also meet incoming steam
ships to aid travellers in shaping de-
tails for continuing journeys from
New York over the Pennsylvania
Lines by furnishing tickets, arranging
fer the transfer of baggage from
steamship docks after it has been
passed by customs inspectors, and hav-
ing the same checked through to des-
tination. They will reserve sleeping
car accommodations and relieve per-
sons of the foregoing details, making
themselves useful as attendants and
guides free Of charge.
Further information on the subject
may be obtained by addressing the
nearest Pennsylvania Lines Ticket

The general attitude of the Times
in regard to the citizenship of Mr..
Sykes Is an imputation against the
citizenship of all Marietta's new-com-
ers. In the past five years there are
hosts of new people who have come in
to share their fortune with us, and we
don't believe it is just treating these
folks right to question their citizen
ship or their common interest in Ma
rietta's affairs.
