Has A Word For Both Friends
and Foes.
MARION, Ky, March 7, 1900.

MARION, KY, March 7, 1900.
If you will give me little space
in your paper, am very DESTROYS
to express my gratitude to the cit
liens of the city of Marion and
The. Comfy of Crittenden. 1 am
ready to acknowledge an everlast-
ing debt of gratitude to those who
have treated me with so much
kindness and courtesy since l have
been engaged with the smallpox.
This, my expression of gratitude,
has been due you some time, but
l know you will excuse me when
you consider that l had more bus
mess of importance to attend to.
| am glad that my life has been
spared me until this time, when |
can see the smallpox mist evapor-
ating slowly, and ere long we hope
the heavens will become bright as
crystals; then those that have eyes
can see, those that have ears can
hear, those that have feeling can
feel, and those that have a tongue
can talk on about the board of
health and old DR.. Rile Clark. |
have rejoiced much from malicious
and mendacious charges made
against me, when | was discharg-
ing my duty to the best of my
ability, to protect the health and
lives of our citizens. There was
one howl all over the town and
county that old DIR. Rile Clark and
some of the other doctors were
trying to deceive the people and
fill their pockets. It's nothing but
chicken-pox or some kind of itch.
This was very enjoyable of course,
but we let them alone, because
they knew not what they were say
ing or doing. Some of my friends
have nobly met the illumination of
these designing and maligning per-
sons, which I do most highly APP
preciate. / have come to the con-
clusion that the good old Psalmist
spoke the truth when he said, "all
men are liars, and they go Icing
from their mothers womb" Men
were considered men of veracity,
took the lead in misrepresentation
and foul mendacities. We have
gone through this frey ordeal re-
joicing, without stopping to answer
or explain. l am glad l am still
living, but sorry that my pocket is
not full. OLD RILE.

The Courier in the future as in the
past will print club reports, programs
and discussions. The title, official or.
gan, was conferred on the paper for a
year. The editor has had no inten.
tiOn for several months of requesting
that the title be conferred on the
paper for another year. In the Opin-
ion of many good club women the
title means that all other depart
ments Of the paper are to be colorless
and unbiased by any opinions Of the
editor. II the total membership of
the state federation of wOmen's clubs
had taken the paper. l should feel
that the editorial pages Of the COur-
Ter owed neutrality to its clientele Of
all political parties. but under the
circumstances, the obligation was
discharged last winter, when from
twelve to eighteen pages a month
were devoted to the club department.
Everyday life, politics and local and
national happenings, among which
the doings Of clubs and club women
are a part. interest all women. They
interest me so much that it is an act
Of impossible self denial to avoid
