The Middletown (O.) Daily News has
the following to say of a Bourbon
county boy who has made good since
leaving MS old home:
After years OF service at the head
OF the First National Bank, Of this
city, Captain Robert Wilson by his own
desire, throws off the burden of finan-
clal care as president of this great in.
stltutlon and places it in the hands of
one, who, comparatively young in
years. has the business experience that
assures its continuance as one of the
great financial institutions of the State.
Colonel Renick. formerly cashier
of the bank, was the choice of the
directory for the Presidency. The
honor came to him unsolicited and will
! be borne with the modesty that is
! characteristic of the genial Kentuck-
ian.
"Mr. Morris Renick is not only a
business man of experience, but has
the energy and yet the caution and ex-
cellent judgment that makes Kim emf
nently the man to assume the arduous
responsibilities that his prede cessor
, lays aside, and his many friends con-
graduate him On assuming his onerous
duties.
while regretting the retirement of
Captain Wilson the business interest
of Middletown are pleased with the
selection of his successor who pre-emi-
nent ability for the place will retain
the confidence and good will of the pub
lie for the First National bank"
Mr.. Renick is a son of Mr.. and Mrs.
W. H. Renick. CT this city and his host
of friends in Paris and Bourbon county
will be pleased to hear of his success

Free Advertising Abuse.

The demand for free advertising Is
In extent, persistence and ingenuity
beyond the belief OF any but those
who have had experience in the bus
mess. A man who would never think
OF going into a grocery store and re-
questing the proprietor to donate
barrel OF -four or into a shoe store and
telling the owner that if he has no OBJ
lection he thinks he'll help himself to
pair OF shoes will walk confidently
into newspaper Office and prefer his
request for several dollars worth of
free advertising and feel nightly Of
Tended If refused.
, The solicitor Of free advertising Is
always sure that the proprietor would
be glad of something to help fill up
the paper" He is just as glad as the
groceryman is glad of some one to
help carry off his stock without pay
ment. Time and again under the
guise of news items matter is present
ed which is plain advertising and ir
used at all should be paid for as such.
The newspaper proprietor expects
TO furnish certain amount of free
advertising to religious, charitable and
public enterprises. If he didn't he
would be looked on as heather,
hardhearted mercenary. lacking in
public spirit. His contribution is ac-
cepted as matter of course, and
rarely Is he accorded word of
thanks. Sometimes he refuses to
donate as much space as the promoter
Of some enterprise desires, and then
he is looked upon as unreasonable and
disobliging. The proprietor also ex-
poets and is willing to give a little
free advertising to thos. who run
paid advertisements in his paper
This is matter Of business cour-
tesy which is rarely abused. But with
the hordes Of solicitors for free ad-
vertising which constantly besiege the
newspaper offices, with no possible
claim upon his courtesies save the
hope Of getting something for nothing.
the proprietor has no sympathy what
ever.
The duties that the newspaper pro-
prietor and editor owe to the public
are numerous. diverse and eXacting
1t Is high time that the public should
understand that these duties do not
amount of valuable space for the ben
eft of individuals or enterprises

Letter to John j. BrittOn. Jr.,

Dear Sir: Todd & Downing, con-
tractors and builders. Morgan City,
La. have painted Devoe for or 4
years. They say it takes less gallons
Devoe than of any other paint they
have used. That means that q job
costs less with Devoe; not only for
paint, for labor as well.
They paint nothing else. Devoe ex-
clusively.
They have said nothing about the
comparative wear Of Devoe and 9TH
ers: oversight may be; perhaps too
soon for that. But Devoe is the
strongest paint; that's why least gal
Ions; best wear, same reason. Least
cost and longest time between jobs.

NEW LOCOMOTIVES
The Coast Line Puts a Number OF
New Engines Into Service.

The Atlantic Coast Line Railroad
Company has received all Of the loco
motives that they had placed an order
for early In the spring, so that they
now have sufficient motive mower TO
move traffic promptly and without
delay.
In addition to the large number Of
monster locomotives that are in SER
vice on the various divisions over the
entire system, the Coast Line has now
at Rocky Mount, n. c.. twenty-eight
large freight engines, numbering from
977 to 1,O04 inclusive. and one at the
jamestown Exposition, the No. 1,OO5.
In addition. to these freight engines
they have at Rocky Mount sixteen
switch engines that are awaiting dis
tribution at various functional points
for yard work.
These new engines are just from
the Baldwin shops, and have been
side-tracked at Rocky Mount, n. c.,
"hSAN shSJ ioNC pCcu White ledQoQ
in order that their machinery will not
rust and become defective. AS soon
as needed these monsters will be set
up and placed on runs over the differ
ent divisions.
The Coast Line Is now in better
shape than they have ever been, so
far as motive power is concerned,
and are ready for any emergency
rush.
In addition to the above locomo-
tives, twelve monster passenger en-
gines of the Pacific" type have been
ordered. and which, as soon as they
arrive. will be placed on the Florence
Rocky Mount Richmond runs. These
engines. it is said. will pull twelve
Pullman sleepers and make a sched-
ule Of sixty miles the hour without
the slightest trouble.
The laying Of the 90-pound rail
over the Coast Lines main line, from
Richmond to Jacksonville, is pro
