IMPORTANT NEWSPAPER CHANGE
Henry Watterson's Courier. Journal
Announces New Policy.

During Three Decades the Louisville
Courier-Journal has stood unaitera bly,
and conspicuously before the public as
the representative of the great common
ality of the people against both Robber
Baron, seeking through the accretion
of ill-got money to steal away the peo-
pies liberty by stealing away their
franchise rights, and the ready-tool of
the Robber Baron, the bandit politi-
clan, masquerading as Statesman
and patriot the better to serve the
ends of his master. In fulfilling this
high function it has sometimes had to
go fast and sometimes to go slow, some
times to cry ''oward," and sometimes
to cry ''halt," sometimes to drive at
the root of things, and sometimes to
drive ahead; but never changing the
direction of it's movement and al
ways true to the underlying principle
of its being, expressed by the simple
demand for "Th< Greatest Good to the
Greatest Number
With the advent of the New Year,
that is on the first of January, 1903,
the Courier-Journal began a campaign
from which it looks for commanding
results, and the better to reach the
objects it has before it, the twice a.
week edition was changed to a once-a
week edition, returning to the old
Weekly Courier-Journal. which for a |
quarter of Century was literally a
political bible to millions of Americans
who knew they could trust both its pre-
science and its disinterestedness.
The new Weekly Courier Journal is
modern in every respect, and is a !
paper for the home. It is issued every
Wednesday. and its ten or twelve
pages are filled with the
best work of the best writer's. The
price of the paper is 81 year, in ad-
vance, and it is we'll worth it.
BY special arrangement with the
publishers of the Courier Journal you
can get that paper and the ROSEBUD
COUNTY News one year for only So. 90.

Severn.

ANNAPOLIS. Md, May "A heavy sea
capsized the University of P~ennsylvania's
crew in a race today on the Severn with
the Navy, and gave the latter an easy vic
tory. The water was fairly smooth early
in the afternoon. but hardly had the crews
taken their seats before a stin breeze
over the course.
The boats got OFF well from a flying start.
The middies. being more accustomed to
rough water, took things as easy as pos
sible. merely hanging on and not trying to
squirt. Pennsylvania, however, hit things
up to a IS stroke and lheiT boat soon COM
menced to MI. At the Santee wharf the
bow went under and In a few minutes the
boat was swamped and the men were taken
off in a launch. The freshmen second
crews race was called off.
The Navy oaTsmen were little pleased
over their hollow victory and Immediately
requested the Quakers TO make another
date. and the Pennsylvanians declared that
with the permission of their faculty they
would come here On May 16 for another
