The BODY Merely Machine.

There are JUST any number Of dis
eases in which the Osteopathic is the
only treatment that will give any re-
lief at all. n
The various phases OF neuralgia
and rheumatism as an example yield
more readily to the 0steopathic
treatment than they do to medicine.
so too do lumbago, chronic head
aches, partial paralysis and kindred
ailments, and to one who knows the
first principals of Osteopathy 1t is
easily to see why this is so.
osteopathy is a scientific system
of exercise for the nerves and organs
of the body--simply manipulation
by which II restores structural nor
mality. TIE body is a machine run
by unseen forces called life, and that
II may run tremendously It is neces-
sary that there be liberty Of blood,
nerves and arteries from the gene
rating point to destination. This Is
what osteopathy does-gives liberty
to the blood, nerves and arteries.

MEN ARE NEEDED.

If the commonwealth attorney OF
the judicial circuit and the county
attorney of Christian county, either
through natural cowardiee oil
through a sense of loyalty and friend
ship to the outlaws who burned the
warehouses at Hopkinsville, decide
20 withdraw from the prosecutions
growing out of the outrage, they
should have the decency 10 withdraw
from the emoluments and preroga-
tives OF the Offices, which in that
case they would be most unworthily
occupying. We do not know for
what purposes men are elected to the
Office of commonwealth attorney
and paid, except IL be to represent
the people OF the commonwealth OF
kentucky against any person, who
outrages the peace Of society.
There never was time in western
Kentucky, when the public good
more urgently demanded strong men,
capable and willing to perform
their sworn duty or course, officials
undertaking the duties of prosecute
ing these criminals are bound to
meet. with threats of violence; but
when the public good demands IT.,
the patriot must take risks in times
OF peace as well as In times of war.
1t is the hour of danger. which
serves TO distinguish the man, who
Is holding public Office as a patriot,
The Paducah evening sun. [volume] (Paducah, Ky.) 1906-1929, 1907-12-31

from the fellow who is holding Office
for personal gain.
There is not the least occasion
for anybody. other than the regular
officials of Christian county 10 pros
ecute these criminals. We know that
the officials of Caldwell county failed
disgracefully in their duty, and such
laxity recalls forcibly to mind the
warning of Secretary of State Root,
that where local government falls,
the federal government must inter
yene. Failure of Christian county
officials to measure up to the re-
quirements of the present situation
will be woeful reflection on Chris
tan county.

However tempting to belligerent
spirits may be, the appearance OF
schism in Democratic ranks in the
general assembly. Republican men,
/ bers must. remember that there is nc
benefit for The party or the state in a
deadlock of itself. There may be
advantages growing out of terms ex-
acted for the breaking of deadlock,
TO take advantage of which is good
politics, but this advantage is avail
able only to we'll disciplined min
ority under patriotic leadership.
Republican members must keep in
mind the fact that the general as
sembly Is Democratic, and If the
Democratic majority is welded into
compact formation by partisanship,
the Republican minority members
might as well return to their homes,
so far as the welfare of the common
wealth is concerned.
If the Republicans have chance,
a real chance, to elect United
States senator, there is nothing for
the Republican representative to do
but to elect the senator; but by far
more important to the party and to
the state, than a Republican senator,
is the redistricting of the state to
conform to the geographical and top
ographical boundaries and to the
distribution of population. Ken
lucky is suffering seriously from the
effects OF Gerrymander. that has
deprived about half the population
of its rightful representation and
placed the Democratic party. in the
hands of a few politicians.
There will be no advantage In
constructing a deadlock and engen-
dering party rancor. What the peo-
pie demand is that Kentucky be re-
deemed from her present political
condition.

Nothing more unique than tho pro-
posal to open the Philippines to free
trade with Japan, while maintaining
the tariff barrier between the col
onies and the United States, has
been suggested in international poll
tics in many years. Such a scheme
would save this country from the
unpleasant experience of another at
tempt to put Philippine products ON
the free list, and at the same time
would relieve the irritation of the
thorn in the Pacific side of the Jap
anese empire. A good market for
all Japan's product and an equally
satisfactory one for the Philippine
products would be offered. OF
course. there are people back here,
who would object to opening the
Philippine markets to any products
other than our own, but they are the
same. who refuse 10 admit Philip
pine products to our markets; and
it Is certain that the Philippines are
entitled to trade with somebody. II
might be that trade relations be-
tween these oriental archipelagos
would be the proper, natural and con-
sistent thing to encourage; but be-
fore seriously entering into any such
relations with the willy Jap, we
should carefully consider the after
effects of allowing, him 20 secure a
dominating influence in the Philip
pines.

Farmers OF Christian and Trigg
counties are now made victims of the
natural outgrowth of a lawless con-
dition. might riders are posting
notices on the farms of these plant
ers, independents and association
members alike, ordering them to dis
charge their negro farm hands. II
is believed these notices are posted
by white hands, who hope thus to
drive out the negroes and create a
demand for labor, which will enable
them to extort their own price for
their services from the planters.

told me that the creature cried and
pleaded for forgiveness and promised
amendment for the future. And Mr..

night you we're assailed with Duella

groans and cries behind the locked

voices which we're like 10 one man

were all explained.

for a hired man."
"For one thing, a family interest |
think he Is a son OF Lanes early

CHAPTER xxx.

I s. The End OF the Journey.
For a few minutes we were silent.
Water and land and sky started into
new glories at the touch OF the rising
sun. The many-hilled city took on the
hues of fairy picture, and the win
dows cleaned with the magic fires that
were flashed back in greeting to the
god Of day.
It seemed scarcely possible tina. this
was the raging. tossing water we had
crossed last night. And the fiery
scene of passion and death we had
Just witnessed was SO foreign to its
calm beauties that l could believe it
had happened elsewhere in some
dream Of long ago.
l was reused by the voice of Mrs.
KNAPP. who sat at the head of the
cabin stairs looking absently over the
water.

Mrs. Knapp nodded. Then she con-

"Mr. Knapp and his brother parted
80 years ago in Ohio. The brother
the man who has just gone-was
younger than Mr.. Knapp. though he
looked older. He was wild in his
youth. When he left home ii was in

Knapp. but pleaded that he was anx-

help him, but made the condition that
he should take another name, and
should never allow the relationship TO

him by mis- true name-was ready to
agree to the conditions. l think he
was glad indeed to conceal himself
under an assumed name and hide from
the memory of his earlier years"
Had his crimes then been so
