There is now absolutely no doubt,
II there ever was before, about the
necessity Of removing all the feud
cases OF Breathitt TO another point,
1t is difficult to see why Judge Red
wine would not prefer to do this,
and thus escape not only the heavy
task, but the severe criticism which
was only the natural result OF the
situation. With plenty of money
behind them, Jett and White will,
II convicted, make desperate fight
for a new trial, II this should be
secured on the ground OF an erro.

be very severe.

Notwithstanding the discourage
ing season for farmers, it Is the in
tention OF the officials to hold the
Lawrence County Fair just the
same this fall. Let all the farmers
get ready for it. Also in addition
to the farm products, 1t is de-
sired to have samples OF coal, iron
ore, and other minerals put on dis
play very prominently at the Fair.
There is plenty OF valuable miner
ais in Lawrence County and it is
time we were letting the world
know 1t. Development is now fair
ly started on Big Sandy and we
should take our place in the pro-
cession. 1t may be news to many
Of our people that there are large

our county, but such is the case.
Proper effort would result in the
establishment Of a furnace at Lou
lisa. This is only hint at the
facts. We shall elaborate on the
subject later on.

ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
Constable Denbow, of Albion, Takes
Big Dose OF Morphine, But is Saved
From Death by Physician Who is
Called.

Constable Will Denbow. of Albion,
attempted to end his life at about 1890
O'clock Tuesday night by taking a big
dose of morphine. A friend who was
with him at the time, summoned the
physician. who saved him. altho he
arrived none too soon. The attempt
was made in the rooming house OF f. c.
Bates, on North Center street To an
officer, who was called to the scene,
trouble he wished to die. a young
friend who occupied tn same room
With Denbow, said that he saw him
take the drug, and, fearing something
was wrong, summoned the police and
a doctor. When the physician ar
rived Denbow was partially uncon-
scious. A strong emetic was admins
tered and he vonited freely. He gave
no reason to the doctor why he should
wish to die. but admitted that he had
had few glasses of beer during the
evening. He told the physician that
he had swallowed six grains of NOR
phine. but this. the doctor thinks inn
probable. for that amount would have
been sufficient to have killed a dozen
men. Denbow WAS able to be upon the
street this morning, but could not be
found.
About two months ago doctor was
called to 203 South First avenue,
where Denbow was staying. He was on
that occasion suffering from an over
dose. and was partially unconscious.
He said on that occasion he had taken
three grains of the poison. What the
exact cause of the rash attempt may
be is not known. Young Denbow is the

An Important Local Question.
An important local question is to be
decided at the polls Tuesday. altho
it has nothing to do with the general
election, further than the advantage of
the general election is TO be taken to
vote for the other, thus avoiding the eX
pense of special election. The ques-
ton that will be voted upon locally Is
whether or not a 2-mill tax. for per-
8iod of three years, shall be levied for
park purposes The question is one
in which the Marshalltown Trades and
Labor Assembly has interested itself
and is promoting With much ardor.
There is scarcely any doubt but that
the tax will be voted, for there is no
opposition to a public park. The matter
of location is not to be decided by the
vote Tuesday, but simply the question
of the levying of tax. The 2-tnill levy
will amount to about $4,000 In the
three years The location will be de-
cided after the election of the park
commissioners next spring
