TWO YEARS FOR BURTON
The Jury Out Only About Three
Hours and Returns Yer.
dict As Above,

After being in their room three hours,
the jury in the case of the Common
wealth VS. Elijah M. Burton for the
killing of James Dooley, returned a
verdict of manslaughter, fixing the de-
PENDANTS punishment at two years in
State penitentiary.
1t will be remembered that on Sun
day, August 10th, of last year, Dooley
was shot and almost instantly killed by
Burton at the formers home near Yes
ter. The circumstances which led up
to the shooting were about as follows:
The principals had been at outs for
several years, and never lost an oppor-
tunity to cast epithets at each other.
On Saturday, the trouble was renewed,
both sides using many vile names, until
Dooley fired at Burton, hitting two of
Jim Powell's sons. 1t is claimed that
Burton fired into Dooley's home, break
ing window lights, but injuring none of
the occupants. The trouble quoted
down at that time, but early Sunday
morning, e. Dooley was entering his

ADVOCATES PIKE
TO RIVER.
A Pellyt0n Man Thinks it a Much
Better Proposition Then Any
One Yet Mentioned.

l notice quite an amount of comment
mostly favorable, ON the proposed
pike to Greensburg. Of course this
would be good thing, but in my judg-
ment the proper road to build is from
Columbia to the river. Freight, by
water, is much cheaper, and even should
drayage from the county seat be in
creased sufficient to equalize the rates,
we would be much better off with two
outlets.
Then again, we would stand a much
better opportunity of securing a rail-
road. So long as the L. & N, which
we have been feeding for over a quar-
ter of century, can get the traffic of
this country without expending capital
in the construction of road we may
rest assured they will remain idle. But
let the freight business of this section
reach the the Southern via the river and
it will not be long until the first mem
toned system will get busy. Construct
good roads all over the county, and pike
to Greensburg, but by all means lets
have the pike to the Cumberland.

THOROUGHBREDS
Being PLACED,
Adair County Should Take Steps to
Secure One Of These Fine
individuals.

Several weeks since we published an
article from the American Breeders
Protective Association which has es-
tablished Bureau to place thorough
bred stations in various sections of the
State to promote the quality Of horse
flesh.
1t will be remembered that the arti-
Gle above referred to gave out that
these fine stations would be placed in
the hands of good farmers, who would
stand them at nominal fees; that the
Representative of each county or dis
trict would be asked to help select a
suitable and conveniently located citi-
zen to take charge of the animal.
Since the first announcement, the
work of placing the thoroughbreds has
begun, and our sister county, Clinton,
has secured ''The Virginian," a fine in
dividual, which is in the hands of Thorn
as Brents, Ida KY. We see no reason
why Adair county should not be furnish
ed one of these stations, and feel con-
fident that if our horsemen will take up
the matter we shall soon see famous
Bluegrass thoroughbred within our
borders. Who will take the initiative
to secure one of these horses?

SPEAKS OUR SENTIMENTS.

The class that builds up a city and en-
joys life and makes the best citizens are
the enterprising and liberal men who
believe in living and letting others live
and who, when they get dollar don't
squeeze it until the Goddess of Liberty
feels as if a corset laced to the last
notch would feel more comfortable
Such squeezing is what causes hard
times and stops the circulation of the
American Eagle. If it were not for
our broad-gauged and enterprising men
it would be impossible to build up a
prosperous ity.-Harrodsburg Herald.

yard gate, Burton fired inf1icting the
death wound. Both sides tell differ
ent story at this point. The defense
claims that Burton opened his store
door as Jim was entering his gate, and
the former noticed that Dooley was
raising his gun to fire. The prosecu-
ton, though Miss Grace Dooley, the
only eye witness, says that the de-
ceased was shutting his gate when Bur-
ton appeared in his store door, firing
the fatal shot.
The trial was begun on January 2Srd
and occupied eight days. Probably no
trial within the past several years has
been witnessed by larger audience or
with greater interest-the court room
being filled at every session.
Both sides were represented by able
counsel and the case was holly contest
ed at every point. The defense was
represented by Judge w. w. Jones,
James Garrett and Rollin Hurt and
the prosecution by Commonwealth At
torney HuddIeston, County Attorney,
Smythe, Winfrey & Winfrey and w. l..
Malone, of the Campbel lsville bar.
