LET TIE oHleF SPEAK OUT.

The Post has taken occasion, in referring to the
awossness prevailing in Houston, consure Chief of
Police Blackburn because of his seeming indifference
in the matter and patent lack Of ability to cope with
the situation
In reply, through the medium of published inter
views the chief pleads that he is so hampored in the
discharge of his duties that It is practically impossible
for him to perform them in anything like satisfactory
manner,
Chief Blackburn's defense is strange to say the
least OF it, for no man with the right kind of stuff in
him would in his position to play the part of
hgurehoad and then acknowledge his RELOCATION in
apology for failing to stand up to his responsibilities
That is to say that Chief Backburns defense is but
confession Of weakness
To allege that he is not freehandod IN the manage
ment of the police department will not avail Chief
Blackburn in explanation Of the present denquences
IN that department in avoidance of his share Of
the blame for these conditions. 1t is not for him IN
say: - can not do my duty because am hammered g"
What he must do IT, matter of fact he is ham
pered, is to tell how where and by whom he is ham
pered Justice to himself say nothing of Justice 70
the people of this city requires that he disclose the ma
nrc of the malcyolent influence that is holding him
back.

more to tell If YOU arc you claim bameloss it is

DEATH OF JUDGE w. G. Bull
Lift.

Our city and county has sus-
tanned another heavy loss in the
death of Judge VIM. G. Bullitt,
which sad event occurred on We'd
nesday night last at II O'Clock.
He was rs years Of age.
Judge Bullitt was a man of fine
mind, great attainments and of
the highest culture. His integ-
rity and honor were of the first
class. He knew no fear as man
or soldier, and was incapable of a
dishonorable action.
He was born and raised at Shell
byville, but for many years had
lived at Paducah, and served as
Circuit Judge of his judicial dis
trict. His last service of public
character was as Representative
of McCracken county in the late
Constitutional Convention. At
the close of his term he married
Miss Kate Pilkington, of this
city. and moved his residence
here. He continued in the prac-
tice of his profession and in au-
thorship until attacked by an in
durable disease. For several
months he had been confined to
his room and bed, but never lost
his courage until the end.
He leaves a wife, but no chill
dren, and a large circle of friends
to mourn his death.
The funeral will take place to-
day, services being conducted by
Rev. w. G. McCready of the
Episcopal Church, after which the
remains will be inferred in our
cemetery.

The daily attendance of young
men at the Association Building
now average $50. This is a daily
gain over the same days last year
of 20. Can any one say this work
for young men is not growing.
The one need is money to properly
care for the growing needs.
There are dozens of men in
Frankfort who should be using
