The Hartford Herald closes its dis
cussion of the financial panic, as it
has been pleased to call the recent
money stringency, by the follow
ing characteristic observation in
which we infer that it hopes
in a measure to justly its re-
cent unwarranted utterances concern
ing the situation. The Republican
would do well to adopt the same lau-
dable course of trying to keep its
readers informed of current events,
instead of picking flaws in a contem-
porary's honest efforts in that direc-
ton" If by an honest effort we fail
as utterly as the Herald has in This
matter TO rightfully inform the public
we don't know that we care TO try
TO keep our readers informed of cur
rem events Tai Ta Lets hay e

put up to the Kentucky delegates to

M. Barnett was selected. was nominate
and elected by 1879 votes to SO for his
opponent, Mr.. H. E. Wilson, of Okla
homa, who was one of Mr.. Everitt's
special friends. But when the vote
was announced he arose and moved 10
make the election of Barnett unani-
nous, which was Immediately carried.
The other officers were elected with
out opposition. -
Then Mr.. Everitt came to the stand
made talk in which he promised TO
support the newly elected officials and
do all he could toAdvance the socie-
ty. Then upon reading of the con-
tract that Mr.. Everitt had made with
himself in 1903 by which Up-to-date
Farming was made the official organ
of the society for period of so years.
motion was made to disavow said
contract. The result of the vote was
that only Is votes were recorded in
favor of the contract. Then couple to
this contract his proposed revision of
the constitution and bylaws especial
ly section 4. Duties of officers which
is as follows: THE President shall
have general supervision of the So
ciety's headquarters and its activities
in the field. He shall employ. a COM
petent secretary and other help as ne
cessary to give correct and efficient
service, and he shall determine the
salaries paid. He shall also select q
National Organizer and such assistant
as necessary and determine their SAL
airy. He shall plan or give his sane
ton to all campaigns before they are
undertaken. He shall also contract
for all expenses for the National I'm
ion or delegate this authority to 9TH
ers under his supervision. He shall
sign all charters and commissions with
the Secretary or delegate thus au-
thorizing, and perform The duties that
properly devolves on am executive Of
flee.
There are specific charges against
the ex-President not mentioned here
that would SATISFY the most exacting,
that can be given later if necessary.
But This article is getting too long
Now dear readers, does it seem I'M
reasonable that convention made
up of the best and most earnest men
from the various State, county and
local unions of twenty States sent to
this meeting to look after and protect
the interests of the society would go
you believe. The facts are that while
we would not detract one particle from
the honor due Mr.. Everitt for giving
US the plan of the A. 8. of z, Yet
when We consider the continued hon.
or. and praise he could have received
had he proved true to the trust re-
posed in him. Then on the other hand
when we consider that his has been
career OF crookedness and decep-
tfon as matters appear nows then he
certainly deserves the greater, amount
of contempt because Of his greater
capacity for doing good Now to con-
clude as you were represented by a
good sized delegation from your own
State who could not have been prompt
ed by any but the purest of motives.
Then what is the plain duty Of
every true Equity man in Kentucky,
81 and by the work of the convention
Loyalty as this is the peoples organi-
cation and does not belong to ANY
one man. Every local union ought
