public officials. The reporters LOT
is not a pleasant one at best and
when he is required to fight his
way into public buildingsf when de-
tailed by his employers, he is be-
ing deprived not only of his rights
as a citizen, but the freedom of the
press is being interfered with.
Newspaper men everywhere, re-
CARELESS of politics, will resent this
treatment OF one of their number,
Just as the press OF the whole coun-
try resented Gov, Pennypacker 5
attempt to throttle the press OF
Pennsylvania by his infamous libel
law. If this thing is to be con-
tinued, the Louisville Herald will
have to employ armed prize fighters
10 do its work at Frankfort. The
papers of Kentucky may not all
speak out on this subject, but few,
if any, of them will fail to endorse
the idea that reporters, regardless
of their party utilization, have
rights that public officials should
respect, at least in their places OF
business. Personal assaults often
end in homicides and we have had
enough of bloodshed in Ken
lucky. A bulldozing policy may
intimidate the timid correspondent,
but the Democratic party will be
the sufferer in the long run. To
the young hot heads who have
called forth these remarks, we
commend a careful perusal of the
last ten words of the Dist verse of
the 10Th chapter of first Samuel.

NEAR AT HAND.
attractions at the Fall Festival
This Week in Cincinnati.

Cincinnati, Aug. 31.--Visitors to
the Cincinnati Fall Festival, which
opens on Sept. 7th, next, will be
offered amusement and sight seeing
in abundance. First. of course is
the Industrial Exposition, repre-.
sentiHg the manufacturers and
products special TO the city. After
that comes the superb venetian
spectacle of Marco Polo, which has
aroused the interest and curiosity
of this entire section of the country.
In addition there will be the usual
Night pageant of the Mystic Order
of Itan-Nic-Nic, and the shows of
the Park which are on the order of
a high class continuous Vaudeville.
Particular interest will attach to
the booth called Seville, which will
house the dancing show, starring
lovely, dark eyed beauty from the
Old Spanish city, on the banks of
the Guadalquiver. This booth will
possess special attraction for ladies,
who will doubtless remark the gor-
geous costumes of the Senorita,
tollettes bearing the unmistakable
stamp of Paris in every fold, and
said to have cost a small fortune.
The dancing show is graceful, re-
fined and charming to a degree.
Fhe funniest Animal Show going
will appeal to the children. A big,
kindly newfoundland dog does the
spelling for this show and has
company OF monkeys for his COM
rades. So practise up, before the
Festival.
A most touching exhibit. which
will be placed in the Music Hall
during the Festival, is a display
of the work accomplished by the
blind people, living at Clovernook,
a beautiful home out on the kills,
lately given to their use by one of
CincIunatl's great hearted philan'
thropists. Clovernook, was for
merly the home of the two celebrat-
ed literary sisters, Alice and-Phoe-
be Cary, whose poems were the
pride of all Ohio, a decade or two
since.

MASKED MEN
Hold Up Train, But Passengers
Not Molested.
Search Made for Negro Who Shot
Foreman of Construction Crew
At Bakers Hill Tunnel.

About twenty masked men held
up L. g. n. train No 81, which
leaves here at Sis p. m, at the
railroad construction camp near
Ridgetop, Tenn Saturday night.
The men are supposed to have been
in search of the negro. viii Reed,
who shot and probably fatally
wounded Ollie Ware, one of the
foremen experimenting the con
structon of the Louisville and
Nashville railroad tunnel through
Bakers Hill early Saturday morn
ing.
Most of them carried rifles, and
they were very quiet IN their work.
The men boarded the train and
passed through all the coaches,
scanning the passengers. They
had handkerchlefs tied over their
faces, concealing their features up
to their eyes.
After going through the train
they left as quietly as they had
boarded, and il proceeded to Nash
VILE, being delayed only a few min
utes by the hold.up.
The negro wanted had been ar
rested a few miles east OF Spring
field. Officers made the trip to
Nashville in buggy. 1t was very
for Reed that he was not
put on the train, as the masked
men would in all probability have
made short work of him had he been
a passenger.

Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
of food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion reallyfeed:
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems TO fine
it and set the matter right.
