MoRGANTowS, ky.-Mr. Walter
Walker. Marion, KY: | desire
through the PRESS to let my

forgotten them or never will. l love
the people Of Crittenden and Ma
rion. l love every spot in the

Of the people of Marion.
l left Marion nearly four years

to Providence. l came to Nor.
gantown from Providence in May,
and took charge OF three churches
aud two missions. We found a
number Of dead churches. l went
to work in earnest and God has
blessed my efforts. All the chur-
ches are taking on new life and
this bids fair 10 be splendid work
We have just closed great re-
vival here. There were "a CONVEX

grsss two weeks. Rev j. I. Bar

ten days.
Morgsntown is a quiet little
town on Green River, the county
seat Of Butler county. We never
have found a moro generous, open
hearted people. They are ever
ready to help US. We thought
when We left Marion that We never
would find ss many friends as We
had there. 1t was hard to leave
our old home, the town We love 30
dearly. In our silent meditation
We remember Uncle Joe Adams in
the prayer meetings, and the hap
py hours we spent with him and a
few other faithful ones. The ear

"You must preach. Ben, why don't
you go at it," This comes to my

OF my life. ! have witnessed hun

SOON ACQUITTED
Molineux Adjudged Not Guilty Of
Murder.
He Was Wildly Cheered by Several
Thousand Spectators.

New York, Nov. 12-The jury ia
the Molineux case returned n verdict
of not guilty.
Although the jury was ont about
20 minutes, they agreed on their YER
dict within ten minutes after leaving
the courtroom. Notice was immedi-
ately given, Jut it took some minutes
to reassemble the co urt. Among the
first persons to re-enter the court room
was Assistant District Attorney Os-
borne, who seemed TO be nervous as
he waited for the verdict
When the verdict was announced
there was great cheering in the court
roow. The demonstration extended to
the crowd outside.
At least 1900 persons were massed
in the building. The courtroom
doors were locked when the jury
came in.
Molineux stood while the jury was
polled and apparently he was not
affected. His attitude indicated that
he had prepared himself for any YER
dict that might be given. When the
large crowd outside the court room
heard what the verdict was, n great
shout went up and three cheers for
MolineuI were given.
Molineux was formally discharged
q few minutes after the Jury returned
their verdict. Some delay in this for
mality was caused by the enormous
crowd. When the court room had
been cleared the order of discharge
was made out and Molineux left
with his father, followed by q cheer.

There is no reason the army Of con-
sumers in this country should be made
to fill the pockets Of a few classes of
disgruntled employees of corporations
who are already we'll paid. When men
do not receive fair and reasonable
wages, they are entitled to sympathy
and support, but those who get good
pay, and because they imagine they
have the power, are always seeking
to get more and more out of their
employers, are detriments to the hu-
man race, for every dollar that is
paid them over and above a reason
able wage scale is made up by taxing
it in turn from the oftentimes poorer
consumer and is simply robbing the
many TO enrich the few. The railroad
man who is getting fair pay, before he
forces higher wages should remember
the millions of people who will have
to pay more ON everything that is
hauled on rsilroads-food fuel and raj
ment-if he forces wages too high and
oompels the railroads to raise rates
and the wholesaler, retailer and every
one else to In turn raise prices in order
to maintain profits. The miner, the
mechanic and every one else should
likewise remember it. Many men
much poorer an paid much less Of
ten have to go hungry and poorly clad
because of the efforts of some men to
better their condition." as they call
q stubborn effort to force the payment
Of unreasonable wages.

Rural free delivery is proving al
educator as we'll as a convenience, and
is at the same time increasing the
postal receipts of the United States
It has been such = success everywhere
it has been tried that efforts will be
made by the postoffice department to
extend 1t to all parts Of the country as
rapidly as it can be done, although it
will necessarily be somewhat slow,
Rural delivery guarantees quick fsoil-
titles and good roads and costs nothing.
Il should receive the earnest thought
of every farmer in the country in order
that it may be extended to regions that
now do not have it.
