In Kentucky if This Bill Be-
comes a Law
It Is Said TO Stop the Marriage OF
Cousins Will Reduce the Feuds
in the State.
LAW WILL AFFECT PADUOAH

Paducah will no longer be the Gret.
ma Green of numerous couples from II.
linois, Missouri and other states who
come here every year to marry be-
cause they are first cousins aud the
laws of their own state prohibit the
marriage of cousins, if bill proposed
to be introduced is passed.
1t is understood that the next legis.
lature will be asked to pass a law that
will make impossible in the future the
marriage IN Kentucky of this class Of
matrimonial pilgrims. .
A bill to prohibit the marriage n
first cousins has been proposed several
times and at one session many mar
risges were precipitated because of
the belief that 1t would become law.
II is contended that the intermarriage
of mountain families Is the cause Of
much Of the bloodshed in that section
of the state.
Feuds in which various facti ons are
implicated often result in the murder
of mountaineers by their near rela-
tives, and IL IL believed that by the
prohibition Of the marriage Of first
cousins and the infusion OF new blood
into the mountain families q better
class of citizens would result.
AN investigation of the recent feud
in Bresthitt county" said a politician
at Louisville, showed that nearly ev-
cry one implicated in the So called
Hargis- Cockrill feud was related to
his enemies. In some instances first
cousins were deadly enemies and again
unoles and nephews were found align
ed with opposing factions. In many
states promiscuous intermarriage is
prevented by law, and It should be so
here. The mountain people come
from the Anglo-SaSon blood, but their
segregation has resulted in an abnor-
NAL percentage Of marriages between
cousins, as compared to such mar
riages among persons in other parts of
the state. A"
1t is not probable that il such = bill
is introduced it will be fathered by q
member from the feud districts, as it
would in all probability be the cause
OF 3 feud IN which the representative
might be removed from the stage of
activity.

AUDITORS AGENTS
An Interesting Local Fight is
Now Promised.
Agent Frank Lucas. of Paducsh,
Along With Others, Will Resist
Effort to Gust Him.
HAGER WANTS NEW MEN

Auditors Agent Frank Lucas, O
Paducah, will resist the effort to GUS
him from Office. He claims he ha,
over two years yet to serve. He said
today that he, with the other audit
ors agents, vas appointed for foui
years and not to retire when Auditor
Coulter went out of office.
These ngeuts, Mr.. Lucas. of Padu-
cab, Mr.. A n. Harrison, Lexington,
T. @. Albritton, Mayteld, and George
II. Alexander, Of Louisville, were APP
pointed two years ago, and Auditor
Hager will make an effort to dispense
with their services and put in four OF
his own friends.
He has appointed MIR. Joseph A. Flu
qua, of Owensboro, TO succeed Mr.. Al
britton, who was only recently reau-
pointed for four years, and will make
test case of it. Mr.. Fuqua is faith
er-in-lsw Of Governor Beckham.
Mr.. Albritton has employed Kohn.
Baird & Spindle, of Louisville, and
White & Ray, of Frankfort, to contest
she auditors sotion in ousting him in
the middle of his term.
Not only because he wants to make
room for organization sdherents, but
because he wishes to weed out sppoin-
tees of MIR. Coulter, 20 whom he is an
tagonistic, is Mr.. Hsger anxious to
remove the sppointees Of the retiring
auditor. and an interesting legal fight
will result.
The position of auditors agents are
good paying ones and when the bill
creating them was drafted IL was Au-
ditor Coulter's intention that his APP
pointees should hold office after his re-
tirement.
If Mr.. Albritton wins his suit all Of
the agents remain in Office If ne
loses Auditor Hager may fill the four
places.
Discussing the matter Mr.. Albritton
said:
1.-THE revenue act Of the 1902 session
became operative in June, 1902 40
thorizing the auditor 10 appoint not
exceeding four revenue agents for the
state at large. The act definitely fixed
their term at four years II did not
confer upon the auditor the power to
remove any such agent. The auditor
has no power 10 remove, unless the
specific authority is conferred by the
statutes which was rot done in this
case. The contention is made that
the term of revenue agent expires with
that of the auditor. This contention
is fallscious, for tne reason that the
legislat ure passed this act during the
middle OF an auditors term, and con-
ferred upon him the authority TO APP
point for four years.
Had the Legislature intended for
the revenue agents term to expire
with that OF the auditor they would
not have authorized the auditor to APP
point for four years in the middle of
his term. 1t might as well be said
that next November Mayor Granger,
of Louisville, cannot appoint a corpo-
ration counsel for the term Of four
years, although the Legislature has
conferred that authority ON him.
1.-The question OF the revenue agents
for the state at large 20 serve out their
full term Of four years has been sub
mitted TO some of the best lawyers Of
the state, and the opinion has been
given, without exception, that the
agents have the right to serve out
their full terms"

Back From South America.

Glenwood Press:-H. B. Stinson
arrived home last Thursday night
from Buenos Ayres, South America,
whittier he went in September, 1902.
Instead of returning via Southamp-
ton, as before, he came direct from
South America to New York, the trip
occupying 20 days, which included
several stops, each from few hours
to two days duration. 1t is just
about year since Mrs. Stinson and
the children returned to Glenwood.
Mr.. Stinson's two brothers, George
and Fred are in charge of the bust
ness in South America during his alb
sence, and he will go back next fall.
It has taken several years of hard
work to get their machines adapted
to the country and to become ac-
quainted with the people and their
customs, but Mr.. Stinson feels that
he has things in shape now to 90
profitable business for his employers,
the Advance Thresher Company.
Mr.. Stinson talks entertainingly of
the country and it's people. and
thinks the Argentine Republic hts a
good future, though he does not adj
wise young men to go there to make
a fortune unless they have friends
in the country to advise and assis:
them, as it is impossible to accom-
plish anything till one has mastered
the language and customs OF the
people. The ruling classes and bust
ness men are principally Spaniards-
some are Italians-while the farmers
and laboring classes are Russians
and Italians.

One of the marked changes in pro-
gress among the American people is
the leaning toward the farm, the de-
sire to own a piece of land and to
know how to cultivate it. At prom
inent agricultural college in the west
20 yeers ago there was in an enroll
ment of 600 students but just one
who was taking the straight agricul-
tural course. The rest were fitting
themselves to be DOCTORS, lawyers,
parsons, teachers and mechanics.
At the some college this winter short
course in agriculture has drawn there
1000 young men who want to learn
how to grow corn. judge stock and all
about soil culture, and every one of
them goes back to some farm to put
into practice that which he may learn.

The Park Board appointed at the
council meeting last week, met Old
Tuesday and organized by the cleo
ton of the following otfcers:-F. R.
Putnam, president; Emil Evenson,
secretary; F. A. Mullen, treasurer;
c A. Dushek, superintendent. The
board are already making plans for
doing some preliminary work on the
city park on east Seventh street.
The ground there is low, and instead
of expanding lot of money in filling
it up, the board plan on digging out
the center and making an artificial
lake, and with the dirt thus obtained
filling up the remainder. The water
in the little pond can be kept fresh
by the overflow into the surface
sewer. Several trees have already
been planted in the park, and more
will be planted and other improve
ments made as funds can be obtained
The board are also informed that
there is small triangle of ground
where the Chokio road enters the cor
poration, that belongs to the city, and
could be made into an attractive little
park.
