CAPT. FARLEYs BIG HEART.

Reckless extravaganza of the leg
stature, of a piece with the conduct
of the last state administration In
holding up warrants until January In
order to show a balance in the state
treasury at the close of its term. will
cause country school teachers to walt
a few months for their pay again.
This first salary installment is the
most important of all TO the teacher.
He has been out of regular employ
ment all summer. perhaps spending
his meagre savings in Improving him
self for his work, and he starts the
fall term usually with very thin
purse, and sometimes with thin
clothes Last fall the teachers youch-
ers were delayed unreasonably, and
no excuse was offered; but the excuse
was easily comprehended, when i'm
mediately after he receipted for the
funds the new state treasurer was
flooded with vouchers that should
have been paid weeks and months be
fore. With the treasury drained by
old claims. the legislature, either
recklessly or with the design OF en-
barrassing the new administration.
made appropriations without provid-
ing revenue.
As usual in such cases II Is not the
administration that must really suf-
fer; but II is the school teacher. The
a. IL. L.,
planned, but no explanation relieves
the situation for the teacher. 1t was
the act OF a sympathetic man, who ap-
preciates a condition he can only do
his best to ameliorate, in State Treas
urer Farley declaring that the school
teachers shall get the first money that
comes into his hands.

warrant sending out soldiers. IL the
tobacco trust is committing acts OF
lawlessness in the Third judicial cir
cult, Commonwealth Attorney Deh-
ny p. Smith is lax in the performance
OF his duty, and deserves the con-
domination OF all those honest farm
ers" he mentions,
Mr.. Smiths excuse that there was
only the testimony OF one uncertain
witness against Crenshaw, is not suf-
flcient. Mr.. Smith Is drawing money
from the state TO ferret out and pros
ecute lawlessness. II a private client
should retain Mr.. Smith to conduct a
civil action, Mr.. Smith would not go
to trial with the unsubstantiated
statement OF his client. He would
work hard and dig up corroborativs
evidence. He should not take the
public's money to lconduct cases. and
do less for It than he would for a
private client. When a man said he
saw Crenshaw or thought he did, Mr.
Smith should have diligently search
ed for evidence against Crenshaw.
lie may have done this, but in an
elaborate defense OF himself, he does
not once mention the only valid ex4
cuse he could possibly produce in the
case.
That Mr.. Smith and Judge Cook
desire exoneration is not strange, and
any man who values his reputation
would, under the circumstances. We
can only commend their efforts TO re-
lieve themselves of suspicion. Lyon,
Trigg, Christian and Galloway coun-
ties, comprising their circuit. have
seen more night riding than any other
county. excepting the border of the
adjoining county of Caldwell. and
some disorders on the border Of
Crittenden, also adjoining. The
county seats of Lyon and Christian
have been visited and outrages COM
mitted. > A condition of anarchy ex-
lists, and no one has been convicted.
In Lyon not a single indictment has
been returned.
1t is al odd coincidence that no
one. has ever been convicted of night
riding in the judicial circuit in which
he resides. The only man convicted
was DR. f. Champion. of Lyon county
who left the Third circuit and came
into this one for the Marshall county
raid. He was the only one convicted
in this circuit of night riding.
AS Mr.. smith says he is running
for Office In the circuit comprising
those night rider counties and he does
not wish 1t to appear that he is not
vigorously prosecuting the night
riders.

DUN's REVIEW.

New York, Aug. 15.-Trade is ir-
regular with pronounced gains In
some sections and no improvement in
others. the net result being encour-
aging, however. and sentiment re-
gaTding the future grows more conf
dent each week. The steel demand is
steadily broadening. each week bring
ing a larger percentage OF active
capacity.
Export contracts are recorded In
every department OF the Industry.
Sales of pig iron are made for de-
livery during the first half OF next
year. The lighter lines OF steel con-
tlnue most actively engaged, notably
wire products. pipe and plates. The
textile markets have been dominated
this weelb byuh second big auction
sale, buyers either devoting attention
to seeking bargains there or awaiting
the effect on the general market. In
wooden goods. the market for mems
wear is now fully opened, the feature
of the past week being the Offering
OF fancy worsteds. For the first time
this year shipments OF boots and
shoes from Boston we're almost as
large as in the corresponding week
in 1907. II is also gratifying to note
that contracts increase. The increase
is in mail orders and comes chiefly
from western wholesalers. Leather
Is quiet but firmly he'd.

sentative. II that is conservative, Pa
ducah's gain of 500. estimated on a
multiple OF 2. should be well within

better than most cities of her size and

dull period. With returning prosper
ity she starts on the new era with a
distinct advantage. Paducah's re-
sources are substantial and her com
mercial position stragetic. Now, all

CARDIN SUES FOR

Louisville. Aug. 15.-The first liti-
cation growing out Of night riding

to the Jefferson county courts came
with the filing OF two suits by A. II.

gers Fire Insurance company, for an
aggregate OF $4,000 for tobacco. barn
and fixtures destroyed by fire at View,
JCrittenden county, between midnight
and dawn OF February s, 1908.
The plaintiff asks 81, 900 insurance
on the tobacco on a policy held BY
him. though he alleges that the to-
bacco was worth 5000. He asks
$500 on the barn and $500 on the
fixtures and appurtenances used in his
business. which he states to be rails

There is no allegation of the fire
being due to night riders, and Attor-

DENNY SMITHS DEFENSE.

Commonwealth Attorney Denny
p. Smith. OF the Third judicial cir
cult. in a long interview today ex-
plains his failure to convict anybody
Of night riding, on the ground that
there is no proof against the men in
dicted, and, consequently. he is not
able to make a case. In the Crenshaw
case in Christian county, Mr.. Smith
says he advised no indictment because
the only witness was a man. who said
he believed he saw Crenshaw; and
for the same reason he advised the
petit jury TO acquit Crenshaw. Like
everybody else, who has been called
upon to defend himself in the night
rider section, Mr.. Smith runs the mat
ter into politics, abuses the governor
for sending troops to protect citizens
against night riders, and declares the
governor is fighting night riders but
not the trusts, and by thus associating
the tobacco trust with the night riders
he discloses his point of view and that
OF certain others he refers to as
honest farmers"
The accusation against the COVER
nor that he does nothing to convict
the trusts comes with especially III
grace from a commonwealth attor-
ney. the ofiicial charged with the re-
sponsibility OF prosecuting all forms
OF lawlessness II Is not the COVER
nor's duty. nor would he have the
right to prosecute the trust. and Mr..
Smith cannot point out wherein the
fobacco trust has done anything TO

bacco in Graves county will be out OF

 Cod Liv CT Oil
 T HIS w A Y.

C. o. D. TABLETS present cod livel oil to you in the form of a dry, easily swallowed tablet which leaves no m pleasant or sickening taste in youl mouth. ALL the good qualities of the
 est Norwegian Cod Liver Oil are con. tained in these tablets and ALL the obiectional qualities of the oil are ab- sent. These tablets excel the plain oil in many ways, a few of the most im- portant of which we list below.
 co. D. TABLETS are easy to take inasmuch as they have no repulsive taste or odor. The plain oil is very hard to take because of it's disagreeable odor and taste.
 co. D. TABLETS never cause that rising in the throat of a sickening "fshy" taste or gas such as very often follows the taking of the plain cod liver oil.
 co. D. TABLETS never upset the stomach or disturb digestion. The con- tinued use of plain cod liver oil is cer- tain to nauseate the stomach and seri- ously retard the processes of digestion.
 C. o. D. TABLETS not only possess all the valuable principles of cod liver oil but they also contain the Hypo- phosphites of Lime and, Soda and a sufficient quantity of that gentle laxa- tive, Licorice, to carry off any excess of oil should you take more of the, TAB LETS than your system can assimilate.
 C. o. D. TABLETS are guaranteed to be better in every way than pure cod liver oil for the treatment of La Grippe, Weak Lungs. Consumption, Pulmonary Complaints, Wasting Dis eases, Loss of Weight, General Debil. ity, Nervous. Weakness, Malnutrition and all other Ailments caused by an i'm poverished condition of the blood.
