THIS NO TIME
To Deal In Rumors, Says
Mr.. Cortelyou.

New York, Nov. 13.-Secretary of
the Treasury George B. Cortelyou
arrived in town tonight and at once
set at rest the Wall street rumor
that he had decided presently to call
upon the national banks of the coun-
try for 10 per cent of their govern
ment deposits.
''Of course" said the secretary,
Il have done nothing of the sort"
then he added:
This is no time to deal in rumors,
especially as to the actions of the
secretary of the treasury
Secretary Cortelyou is here to adj
dress the Merchants Association at
the annual meeting of that body to-
morrow. 1t is expected that he then
will have something to say on the
financial situation. Tonight he would
not be quoted.

WEIGHED 7 POUNDS
Mans Heart Removed by His
Dying Request.

Birmingham, Ala, Nov. 13-Car-
rying out the dying request of her
Mrs. George j. Feindell
gazed upon the heart of her husband
after it had been taken from the
body. The heart taken from George
j. Feindeli, who died Monday at Bo-
loxi. Miss, had grown to abnormal
size, weighing seven pounds after
being taken from the body. In the
opinion of prominent physicians in
the city, the heart was one Of the
largest ever known. The average
weight of the human heart is one
and one-half pounds.
The apparently strange request of
the dead man was made as he be-
lieved he would die Of heart trouble
and thought there was something
wrong with that organ. Mrs. Fem
dell and her husband lived at West
End. near Birmingham.

5O-YEAR-OLD SMITHY
Omission of Signature May
Deprive Navy of Recruit.

Among the many curious and
amusing letters, written in varying
chirography, received at the Louis
vile naval recruiting Office each
week none, is more unique than this
one, received from a Lexington, KY,
blacksmith this week.
The letter says; Il see you want
mechanics for the navy. l am a gen.
eral blacksmith. My age wont cut
no figure. l am only fifty years old,
am sound as a dollar. ! always
have good health. l can run and
jump with any man. l am sober and
study, which you will find out"
Unfortunately this promising bud
is destined to fade and waste his
blacksmith sweetness on the desert
air of Lexington, as the communica-
ton has no signature.
Anyway, Naval Recruiting officer
Gibson says that all the government
sea horses" have already been shod

THE DAY RIDERS.

The parade of farmers through
the streets of Hopkinsville Thursday
was a proceeding that appeared TO
be altogether unnecessary. The OBJ
ject aimed at. if the statements OF
the leaders who headed the move
ment are to be accepted as correct,
was one based on false hypothesis.
At any rate the buyers Of tobacco
who were waited upon all vigorously
denied that they were seeking to in
terfere in any way with existing con-
tracts. They have even gone so far
as to make definite offer to obi
gate themselves not to buy tobacco
that has been pooled or pledged,
coupled with a request that the or
CARNATIONS discountenance any in
reference with the marketing OF
the crops of independent farmers.
When pressed to do so, the commit
tee were unable to give any instance
where this policy of the buyers had
been violated. 1t follows then that
they sought to redress an imaginary
grievance and their fiasco was an
unnecessary diversion. So far as
can be learned, the movement was
without the authority of the rank
ing officers of either of the tobacco
associations.
Mr.. F. B. McCown, the local head
of the Society of Equity, was in the
city but did not ride" Mr.. w. w.
Radford. chairman of the Dark To-
bacco Associations committee, was
not present and it is almost certain
that the movement was without his
knowledge or approval. Vice Chair
man Fowler attended the meeting
and the belief is strong that his
sensible, conservative speech coun'

TIME TO ACT.

The assault made on John w.
Wicks by masked Outlaws Monday
night, in the neiRhborhood where he
was born and raised, is an outrage
that must be prosecuted to the end
of the law. MIR. Wicks is man
) past the middle age of life, he is a
good citizen, who has for many years
been tobacco buyer. 1t is his reg
ular business and as long as there is
tobacco on the market to sell, he has
right, legal and moral, to buy it..
The election is over now and there
is no longer any reason for delay in
breaking up this era of lawlessness.
These men were but thinly disguised.
Even amateur detective work will
disclose their identity. The governor
in a general proclamation has offer
ed a reward Of $500 for each convic-
ton. This should be made specific.
County Judge Breathitt can also Of
fer 5000 in each case and reward
of $500 will bring them to punish
ment. There is already strong sus-
picion against certain parties living
in that nelghborhood. Mr.. Wicks'
{presence was not known to the out
laws usually imported from other
5counties. His assailants were al
most certainly local parties with a
motive for the assault. Let County
Attorney Duffy take vigorous steps.
This outrage must be prosecuted and
the prosecution carried to a success.
4. The people of North Christian are a
brave and fearless race. Many of
them are descended from Revolu-
tionary soldiers who crossed the
mountains and settled more than a
hundred years ago along the wooded
streams of that section. They have
never submitted to areign of terror.
Sixty years ago an organized gang
of outlaws tried it and came to
grief and the leader dangled from a
gallows. The law was slow and the
people were forced to take the law
into their own hands. Suspected
parties were seized and forced to
divulge their guilty knowledge to a
band of Regulators who meant bust
ness. They gathered evidence and
turned it over to the authorities and
in. this way peaceful conditions were
restored that have lasted ever since.
1t is to be hoped that such a course
will not be necessary this time.

OPEN SEASON.
Birds Reported Plentiful ALI
Over the Country.

The quail shooting season opened
yesterday and will last until Jan. L.
A large number of sportsmen from
the city spent the day in the fields
and hundreds of birds were bagRed.
Many farmers have been posted with
signs, forbidding trespassing by the
hunters and unless nimrods are sue
cessful in securing permission of the
farmers their sport will be greatly
restricted. The sportsmen should
bear in mind that quail and other
game birds must not be killed for
commercial purposes or the market.
1t is not permissible to sell or buy
quails or other game birds or to
transport them for purpose of sale.
Quail are reported plentiful in many
sections.

HORSEMEN
PARADE HERE
CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE)

Imperial Co., was visited first. Mr..
Conway told them that the where
as" was based on a statement with
out any basis of fact, that his policy
had been and would still be not to
buy or receive any tobacco pooled
prior to its purchase. The commit
tee admitted that they knew of no
case where his buyers had done this.
They then called on T. B. Fair
leigh, of Tandy & Fairleigh. Mr..
Fairleigh told them substantially
what Mr.. Conway had told them,
telling them that he had told Judge
Fowler some time ago that he did
not intend to buy pooled tobacco. if
he knew it and asked Judge Fowler
if he didn't think it would be fair
for the Association not to interfere
with his buying tobacco not pooled
and that could not now be put in the
association, Judge Fowler had
agreed that it would be. He then
told the committee that he had not
bought any pooled tobacco and did
not intend to. He asked Mr.. Barnes
to name an instance. He mentioned
two or three parties he said he had
heard had been approached. Mr..
Fairleigh told him that it was mis-
take, as it was his settled policy not
to interfere with association con-
tracts and hoped they would not in
terfere with the independent farm
ers who had already sold or who
might in the future sell crops to
him. Mr.. Barnes agreed to this.
All the other buyers waited upon
them of a similar purpose in
buying. At all of the places visited
the committee were eourteously re-
ceived and they appeared pleased
with the results of their visits.
The riders all left for their homes
about four o'clock.
There were rumors that other
bodies of men would meet them
here, but it was altogether a local
from one part of the
county.
The invasion created no excite
ment. The only change in the reg.
ular order of things was that the
mayor ordered the night police on
duty at noon.

TOBACCO BURNED
Contained 1000 Pounds of
Tobacco.

Owenton, Ky, Nov. 12.-The
large Tobacco barn of 7. T. Vollan-
ding, one of the most prominent
farmers in Owen county. was burn
ed to the ground at 7 o'clock this
morning. The origin of the fire is
unknown, but it is supposed to have
been incendiary. The barn contain.
ed 1000 pounds of tobacco on the
stick and this years crop and ff-
teen hogsheads of last years crop
The tobacco of the 1907 crop had
been pledged to the Burley Grow
ers' association, but the tobacco ir
the hogsheads had not been pledged

insurance.

selling wisdom caused a material
change in the original program. 1t
follows then that the parade though
harmless in its ending, was ill-ad-
vised and useless in its inception, II
was a species of disregard of leader
ship and organization. 1t should
never have been undertaken, if I'M
der taken at all, until the leaders of
the organizations had investigated
the facts alleged and had been I'M
successful in their own efforts to
obtain a satisfactory adjustment.
Even then, the meeting could have
been held without the parade, which
served only to create the impression
that intimidation was intended.
There have been a number, Of
movements in the history of our
country that caused only amusement
in the end. In 1877 when Henry
Watterson proposed that an army of
100, 900 unarmed Democrats go to
Washington to protest against the
theft of the Presidency. he made
himself the laughing stock Of the
whole country. Some years ago
when Coxey's army of the unem-
ployed marched to the capital, it
was the universal opinion that Coxey
failed to impress the country as be-
ing a man of good sense. In 1900
when Taylor army of mountaineers
paraded the streets of Frankfort, a
feeling of bitterness was aroused
that ended in a reign or terror.
Only a few days ago, when an Army
of Peaceful Invasion" marched over
the river counties, the movement
was followed by most unsettled
of affairs.
In this city and county a perfect
ly satisfactory condition of affairs
has been arrived at. Probably 80
per cent of the tobacco is in the as
ISOLATION and the doors have been
closed to the other 20 per cent. The
buyers are paying less for these
crops than the associations prices
and are also counting upon buying
more association tobacco than any
other kind. They have taken all of
the 1906 crop and are expecting to
take the 1907 crop when it is put on
the market. Then the folly of such
parades is manifest from every
standpoint. The invasion might
have caused trouble through mis-
understanding of its purpose. Let
us hope that more wisdom and dis
erection may be exercised in the
future.

Ropiing a Grizzly |


'Juego la copa de orc y gamo' Il
play the cup Of gold and VIM, SAID
Jose Guero, as we were ali seated
fifty years ago In the big sala of the
old adobe house on the San Pascual
ranch playing burro tisnado.
That's all right said the big Mis-
sourian, yawning noisily. why don't
you fellows show us some OF your
celebrated bear hunting you talk SO
much about? I've been on this ranch
a year and haven't seen a boar las
seed yet, though there's tracks around
pretty near every day; blamed if |
don't begin to think it's a California
yarn about lassoing bears, anyhow"
"Wel," said Chato, IF anybody
wants to lasso a bear, one nailed down
the old mares colt last night down
by the oak corral, and from the num-
Der of tracks there must have been at
least six of them; anyhow, there was
an old one with some haR-groWn
cubs They made a close call on the
old mare, but only tore a strip OF
meat off her side"
Don Jose Sotelo, a gray haired man
of so years, who had been major
