SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

WASHINGTON. March 5.-A leading
Western politician, delegate to the last
FIVE Republican national conventions
and a Warwick in the nominations of
two presidents, is authority for the
statement that quiet boom for George
B. Cortelyou, Secretary of the Treasury,
for President, is in progress.
This man has been in Washington
two weeks on political matters and
came here from New York. where he
was in consultation with leaders of the
party. He gives it as his opinion that
President Roosevelt eventually will
maze Cortelyou his successor.
According to the informant the Presi-
dent now realizes that no single ad-
ministration candidate can bring in
enough delegates to the next national
convention to nominate. The Presi-
dent is counted upon to control New
York with seventy-two votes. His
friends will bring forth a number of
favorite-son candidates, including SEN
ator Knox in Pennsylvania, Secretary
of War Taft in Ohio. Senator La Fol-
lette in wisconsin, Governor Cummins
in Iowa and others.
He states that if this programme is
carried out Cortelyou stands an excel
lent show of nomination when New
York swings to him.

COMMUNICATED.
Editor Frankfort Roundabout:

The purpose of this contribution is
to clear and do justice to the mem
ory of John 7. Waters, Jr., who was
ruthlessly shot down and instantly
killed by Officer Davis Harrod, of the
Frankfort police force, on Tuesday
night, just before the midnight hour.
The statements OF the affair, as
given in the Kentucky State Journal
in the two issues of that paper follow
ing the occurrence, were notoriously
unfair and manifestly unjust, both to
the memory of the murdered boy and
his surviving relatives and numerous
friends. One would naturally infer,
from reading the account of the kill
ing, published in the paper referred to,
about the death of the unfortunate
young man, had performed a meritori-
GUS duty and had, in fact, removed
from the walks of life desperado,
whose existence was a menace to the
well being of the community in which
he resided. Such, in brief, are the
conclusions that would be arrived at
by those who were unacquainted with
the bare facts in the case after read
ing the garbled story that was printed
in the State Journal.
This is not the first time, within
the past two years or more, that
this same State Journal has been
notably unfair in dealing with hap
penings which concerned numerous
people and families in Frankfort, and
the offenses along this line have been
such as to call forth the just condem
nation of the public. In the details
of passing events it has shown no
regard whatever for the feelings OF
others. Mothers, sisters and,, broth
ers innumerable have been moved to
anguish, time and apain by the cruel
course it has mapped out for its guild
ance, and no person was safe from its
vindictive pursuit.
1t has caused more heartaches
among the people of Frankfort within
the time mentioned, than all other
causes combined, and has smoothed
over wrongdoings, on the part
of its favorites, to an extent that has
become almost unbearable to the pub
lie at large. In many other ways be-
sides, it has trod upon and maddened
the citizens of Frankfort until the
limit of endurance has almost been
reached. These statements none will
have the hardihood to deny.
But it's account of the killing OF
John T.. Waters, Jr.. caps the climax.
This was so hedged about with mis-
statements and favoritism as to even
Ill with disgust its best friends and

ship in which it has ever indulge(
in aealing with local affairs.
The true facts in regard to the kill
ing OF the young man, the clearance
of whose memory has actuated the
writer of these lines, are these: John
7. Waters, who was known to most
of the people c. Frankfort and univer
sally beliked, was not desperate or
criminal. He was of a gentle and
kindly disposition, and was never
known to harm any one. He was as
tender as woman, and knew not
the meaning of crime, in so far as he
was concerned. No enemies dogged
his unassuming path in life. and it
would prove an extremely difficult
matter to find a person, among the
many thousands who go 10 make UP
the population of his home town, who
would state that he had ever done
them an injury. He had his failings,
of course (and which of us has nOt)
but they were inconsequential and
harmed no one. The idea that he
ever carried a pistol with the inten
ton of committing a crime will not be
believed by those who knew him, and
the statement as made in the State
Journal that he attempted to draw
such a weapon on Officer Davis Har-
rod is equally as preposterous. 1t is
true an empty revolver was taken
from his pocket as he lay dead in the
street, but his possession of that
weapon bears an explanation that can
throw no blame upon him. He tool.
the pistol from an indiscreet friend,
who was drinking. and who in all
probability fired the shots that called
forth such drastic and unwarrantable
measures on the part of Officer Davis
Harrod, and which led to the untimely
death of the unfortunate young man.
He was on his wal to his home,
scarce 200 feet distant. when he was
peremptorily ordered TO halt and
throw up his hands by the officer.
Naturally he did not wish to be ar
rested, with a pistol in his possession
as he had never been known 70 carry
one. He disobeyed. accordingly the
command of the minon of the law, and
ran in his effort 10 escape. AS a rash
and uncalled for answer TO that action
on his part he was deliberately fired
on twice by the officer. who, when the
first charge failed to bring down the
quarry had recourse 10 a second. the
result of which bore the cruel ballet
through the boys heart, causing in
stantaneous death and precipitating
him to the roadway where he lay in
grotesque attitude an inert mass.
He was shot sQuarely in the back as
he ran, and the studied effort of the
Journal to explain that the position
he assumed in endeavOring to draw a
weapon threw his body in the proper
attitude for the reception of the
wound in the place indicated. is alb
