Citizens get togethtr and resolve
various things to remedy evils in the
body polite; preachers in the pulpit
decry the tendency of modern times,
and all Of us evince a tendency to
regard mankind in mass, and pre-
feraDiy in the abstract. We even go
so far as to institute juvenile courts
to enforce proper training of the
young. found asylums to afford to the
homeless some resemblance of a
home, and hospitals for the correc-
ton of youthful blemishes; and yet
we never seem to realize that the
very process of reasoning, which di-
reefs us to approximate home for
the homeless, should teach us that
home is the place to train a citizen.
We must get the idea out of our
heads that by legislation and by reso-
lutions and by furnishing a system of
religion made easy, we can change
the character of our adult population.
It's units are just what their fathers
and mothers made them. 1t looks
well to see a mother with boys and
girls growing up, Joining with other
mothers in adopting pessimistic res
olutions. It's a glorious spectacle for
a father to help enact benevolent leg
islation, build up great enterprise
or found a worthy institution, and
then through his neglect of home
duties turn loose on tint community a
bad citizen. For all practical purpos-
es. every child has father and
mother. and If all fathers and moth
ers will consider It the first duty OF
patriotism to bring up their children
to be good citizens. there will be
littlt need Of further resolutions. SER

about legislatlng for the masses.

just what we make It. Attending to

Friends of Hon. Augustus e. Will
son, of Louisville, are pressing his
claim on the Republican nomination,
and he satisfies the whole party. Mr..
Wilson will make an excellent candi-
date and an ideal governor. He has
stumped the state repeatedly, and no
man heard during a national cam
paign has done more effective service
for his party, or shown a more states
manlike appreciation of the issues in
volved. Mr.. Wilson could on previ-
GUS occasions have relinquisned what
ever aspirations he had for a lucra-
tive government position, but he al
ways declined making any sort Of
political deal, manifesting the most
unselfish interest in his party's well
fare. and clinging persistently to the
highest ideals of American politics.
We nave favored Judge James
Breathitt, of Hopkinsville, for first
place. because he is a western Ken
lucky man, because he is eminently
qualified and because he has never
become entangled in factional poll
tics. But If Mr.. Wilson is the choice
of the majority of the party, and
can command the support of all the
leaders, we will vouch for his capa-
bilities and sterling qualities of mind
and heart.

Threw Obiect Overboard.

Leslie Broadfoot, pilot on the ex-
cursion trip, testified that four and
q quarter miles above Metropolis on
this side, he saw three or four boys
standing on the hurricane roof on the
.larboard side, throw what he took
to be a life float or chair into the
river He heard no cry or saw moth
ing unusual.
Tom Culver, cigar maker, testil
fled that he saw the mate of the boat
with the marshal of Metropolis take
boy down stairs from. the cabin;
and that the boy did not appear to
want to go, sitting down on the
steps. The mate pulled at him and
the officer asked him to jerk. as they
could not get the youth down without
it, At the bottom OF the stairs they
let go the boy who fell on the floor,
and while PROSTATE the mate slapped
him twice in the face and kicked
him twice in the back The boy
arose and walking to some planks on
the front of the boat sat down, sur
rounded by several boys, among
them being Frank Elliott and Leslie
Yates. He cried and threatened to
whip the mate before Paducah was
reached. When shown a photograph
of Frank Mckay he identified 1t as

server might No investigation was
made by him as he thought some
mischiveous person might have push
led a bench or some other object into
the water. He thought the splash
was somewhat louder than a bench
would make, but thinking the roof
watchman would see that nothing of
value would be harmed, he thought
little more of 1t.
When the boat landed at Paducah
he assisted the passengers off and
when only few stragglers remained,
his attention was attracted by. a
young man who appeared excited and
was evidently looking for someone.
Several young men were standing on
the wharfboat and as the first young
man went to them he exclaimed, He
wouldn't have it happen for any
thing" Cunningham remarked he
heard a name called as missing but
paid no particular attention. How
ever, since hearing the name INC
Kay" he believed it was 1t was that
as well as he could remember. At
forwards he made an inventory to
see If any property was missing.
Assistant Engineer Counts testi-
fed, but as he went off watch he
knew nothing concerning any disor-
der more than what he heard after
wards. He was shown a picture OF
Mckay which the identified. All the
others viewed the photograph but
failed to recognize the man. and they
were all positive that he was not the
person the mate took down the steps
of the boat. Information was re-
ceived that this man was from Muir
ray and the clerk of the boat de-
scribed him as wearing black coat,
light vest and light trousers. He
wore no hat as this was lost in eject
ling him from the cabin.

Danced with Mckay.

Yesterday Minnie Pruitt testified
that she danced with Mckay on the
boat, that he did not seem to have
been drinking much. and was not
boisterous; that she separated from
him while the boat was between Og-
den's Landing and Metropolis. Nc
Kay hung his hat on a gas jet and
forgot 1t when he went out of the
cabin.

two brought Mckay out. Mckay
said 'let me alone, I'm all right,
but he was taken down, and after
falling or being thrown to the deck,
was slapped and kicked by the
mate. Mckay sat down on Dlanks
and that was the last Edwards saw
of him. Thirty minutes later friends
of Mckay searched for him and ask
ed Edwards If he had seen Mckay.
Edwards then Joined in the search

far as he saw, the slapping and
kicking was unprovoked. Those
searching for Mckay were Mrs. Ed
