and give way to some one else who can.
What seems public sentiment may be
and often Is the clamor of the lawless
who have a selfish interest in violating
law. The indifference of good citizens
permitted bribery for long time, but
the public conscience was at last
aroused to the necessity OF stamping it
out. This civic Indifference has per-
mitted officials to take solemn oath to
carry out the laws on the statute books,
and then to deliberately violate that
oath. But the time is coming when an
active public sentiment will demand
that every public official keep his oath
inviolate. There is no greater evil
among MS than the easy notification of
laws by executive officials who have
sworn to enforce them 1t is not for an
executive official TO say whether law
is good or bad, but to enforce it as it is.
He should not ask is it popular? or is it
good politics but Is it right? In the
end. if he remains steadfast, the right
will win

Looming Musical.

The evening of Feb. 9th, at the Ma
sonic Temple, will be an event unsteady
that will eclipse any thing Richmond
has ever had. The Marien String Quar-.
tette, one of the best organizations of its
kind, will give program ii at will ap-
peal not only to the lovers of good mu-
sic but also to those who have not given
serious thought to the classics.
The personnel of this organization is
composed of the best musical talent
Cincinnati can boast of. Mr.. Marien,
LIST Violin, who was heard here several
years ago in a recital with DR.. Elsen-
heimer and created a profound impress
sion, is at a head of the Violin depart
ment at the Cincinnati College of Music.
Mrs. Weber, 2nd Violin, is assistant
teacher. and has gained an envIable
reputation as a soloIst. Mr.. Hammer,
Viola. AM Mr.. BogOvOy, Celia, are
teachers of their respective instruments.
Miss Westfield, the accompanist, is
assistant teacher of Piano and Theory
at the same institution. Besides the
Quartette Numbers, there will be solos
by Mr.. Marien Violin and Mr. Rogovov,
Cello. These artists are being brought
here by special arrangement and seldom
make the smaller towns. With such a
combination o; artists, surely the peo-
pie of Richmond will turn out zen
mass The price of adm issiOn is only
SOC and as the cause is laudable one
and we sincerely hope to have a large
and enthusiastic audience.

DID YOU ever see and hear one of
those fellows who could not buy a fif-
teen-cent dinner and pay cash for it,
swell up like a toad and croak about
"our wealth" and the great prosper
ity" of our country? OF course you
have But how do we find things
when the searchlight is turned on?
We will give it slight turn and let
you get a glimpse of the situation
According to what most people call
coming from a reliable and authora-
tive source, the startling revelation is
made, and we quote; "One-sixth of
the money in this country, fifteen bill
lion dollars, Is in the hands of five
thousand people, and that those five
thousand people probably control
more than oue-half OF the wealth of
the country. There are three million
recognized paupers in this country,
and three million five hundred thous-
and children between the ages of ten
and fifteen years working in the mines
and factories " This is according to
so-calle1 authoritative resources.
There is no question but the situation
is far worse than reported. When
there is a great conhagration and
thousands of dollars worth of prop
erty is destroyed. the amount is al
ways over-estimated. Bnt when it
comes to reporting the sufferings of
humanity, the truth is always sup
pressed. The facts are, those in an
official capacity must cover 'UIJ
of their dirty wGrl.@and besluos;If
actual facts would not look well in
print. To publish the real facts to
the world would be a travesty on our
craftsmanship and boosted form of
governmental government of the
people, by the people, and for the peo-
pie. therefore, the truth is with
held in order to make good showing.

COLONEL HARRY MCCARTY, of the
Jessamine journal say: "What does
ii matter to the average reader
whether Miss Alice RoOsevelt's trous-
seau is being made in New York City
or Nicholasville. Just so she gets
married and is properly clothed at
the time, it matters not in which
great city the work is being done. .
We might add, what does it matter to
the average reader whether they take
a trip around the world, 90 to Mardi
Gras or stay at home. What does ii
matter if she has sent out thousands
Of invitations. We dare say that in
many vine clad cottage among the
Kentucky hills will be found more
genuine contentment and happiness
than will mark the regal interior OF
the future Mrs. Nicholas Longworth' S
magnificent palace.

Town TOrILs VS.. GOLFERS WEEKLY.

recently fought to a finish in the

signal Importance to the newspaper

of very great interest to society gener-

and lasted several days The c.use
for action was an editorial in
Golfers Weekly of August 5, 1905.
The editorial was an arraignment of
Justice Joseph NJ. Deuel., of.lhe Court
of Special Sessions of New York CITY
and stated in part:
"He is part owner and one

the occupation is printing scandal
about people who are not

In all eases where there is wasting

giycerine acts as valuable nutritive and

Queens root and Black Cherrybark in

Egg Remedy.

A Chicago doctor says that for the
last fifteen years he has used egg to
cure felon and has yet to see a case it
will not cure. The way to apply the
egg is as follows: Take fresh egg and
crack the she'll at the larger end,
make hole just large enough to
admit the thumb or finger, which
ever it may be, and force it in the egg
as far as possible without rupturing
the shell. Wipe off the egg that runs
out and bind a handkerchief or soft
cloth around the finger or thumb
leaving the egg on over night. This
will generally cure in one application.

examination, it was brought out by
his own testimony that, contrary to
law, he received a salary as counsel
for "Town Topics" while holding
office from the city as Justice Of the
Court of Special Sessions; that he
regularly read the proof-sheets AMI
was practically in charge of the
scheme for getting subscriptions TO
''Fads and Fancies;" that he continued
to draw his salary as counsel of
Town Topics after he had accepted
Office from the city; that he had
transacted business for these notori-
GUS enterprises while actually sitting,
in his physical capacity, as a judge
on the bench.
AS the trial progressed it developed
into an investigation that revealed
dirty state of affairs-or, rather a
bad case of blackmail, pursued by the
editors and publishers of clown
Topics" So strong was the evidence
that Norman H4pgood, Editor of
Golfers and defendant in the case,
was promptly acquitted.
One strange feature of the trial was
the exalted position all the parties
held; the plaintiff really became
defendant; the testimony of the pros
ecutor, District Attorney Jerome, and
his appreciation of Mr.. Hapgood; the
evidence showing the long and
systematic course of blackmail pur-
sued by Town Topics"
The revelations in this particular
case are in line with the revelations
of the great insurance cases. It also
shows a great moral laxity in the
exclusive circles Of Gotham; how
wealthy society people tamely SUI
mitted to being ''held up" for years
the payment of large sums of money
by prominent financiers and society
leaders to escape being pilloried in
that scandal-mongering sheet. 1t is,
indeed, shocking commentary on the
social conditions existing IN the
American metropolis.
, "Town Topics" it seems, did not
5 profit so much from what it printed
, but from what it suppressed. 1t seems
5 almost incredulous that such black
mailing tactics as the paper pursued
for long series of years would b'
tolerated by its victims. 1t seems al
most impossible. Yet when we tak'

Richmond, the county seat of Mad

such a school. Richmond offers TWEEN
