permitted a newspaper publisher to
plead a retraction as a bar to
punitive damages when a libel is
printed without malice in the hurry
of preparing news for paper. The
present law is unjust in the extreme.
1t often enables disreputable law
yers to extort money from news
papers by threats of libel suits where
there could not possibly be any
malice. Only last week a newspaper
reported that John Denton" was
arrested. The editor wrote it John
Deaton, but an error of one letter
by the printer brought a heavy dam
age suit from a man named John
Denton, although prompt explana-
ton was made. The bill was in
tended to meet just this kind of
cases and the 43 men who have gone
on record for continuing such an
iniquitous law, have served notice
on every newspaper in Kentucky
that they have nothing to give and
to ask. We are sorry in
deed that Herman Southall has al
lowed himself to get into such COM
pany. The press of Kentucky will
live through the attack upon it, but
many man in the list of 43 will |
some day kick himself for putting
himself outside the pale of news

already said everything that could
be said until the examination couldbe
made at the Eastern end of the line,
that is, was the party who came
here and aroused the interest on the
part of our people able to carry out
their part of the contract to erect a
mill here if our citizens would obi
gate themselves to subscribe for
$50, 900 of the required 100000.
The soliciting committee in less
than two days seucred subscriptions
aggregating more than $40, 900 with
out any trouble whatever. The gen.
tlemen then rested on their oars,
awaiting the return of Mr.. j. H.
Anderson from New York and Bos-
ton. He was empowered to make
full investigation as to the ability
of the Eastern capitalists to comply
with their obligation in the prem
ises.
Mr.. Anderson returned to the
city yesterday morning, and in an
lour or two was seen by a Ken
man. In reply to the ques-
ion asked as to whether everything
