20 avenge the murder; did not seize
upon every clew and follow it up with
all the energy that terror of the crime
could inspire; he fails to tell that the
then Governor of the State and the
State officers elected ON the Repub-
lican ticket remained In that build
ing, made no effort themselves to dis
cover who had fired the shot, and re-
fused to permit the building to be
searched by those officers of the law
who did desire to discover the crimi-
nal. And it is well for the people of
Kentucky to remember this, in view
of the message of the Governor which,
while pleading for peace, calls atten-
lion to the crimes of the Democrats,
but strangely forgers the crimes Of
the Republicans.
I'VE still believe, in spite of the
results in the case arising from the
assassination of Senator Goebel, in
spite of the cases arising from the
Breathitt county assassinations, that
the vast majority of the citizenry of
Kentucky are honest and will observe
al oath of office with as high a sense
of obligation when taken as a member
of a jury as when taken as Governor
of the State. So we cannot refrain
from expressing our regret that now,
when Governor Wilson has the ap-
polntment of the Judge to try Caleb
Powers, he should think 1t consis-
tent with his duty, with his knowl-
edge of the people of Kentucky and
with his opinion of those people, to
intimate that a fair, honest, impartial
ana non-partisan verdict cannot be
rendered in this case by a jury of Ken
tuckians presided over by judge ap-
pointed by the Governor himself

new SCHOOL LAW
FOR KENTUCKY
Which Went Into Effect
June 18th Last.
IS NOT OPERATIVE THIS YEAR
Action on New Law, However,
Must be Taken AT an
Early Date.

The new school law adopted by the
last session of theLegislature,c changes
radically the entire educational system
OF Kentucky. 1t behooves every trus-
tee and every citizen who is interested
in education, to supply himself with a
copy of the new law, read it thorough
ly and make himself familiar with Its
numerous provisions.
Under the law, the county consu-
tutes a single school district, and the
county Judge, county school superin-
tendent and county attorney are con-
stituted a commission TO divide the
county into not less chan four and
net more than eight educational divis-
ions. The law went into effect June
10, but does not affect the schools for
this year. They will be taught under
The old law as heretofore.
After the commission above referred
to has laid the county off into ed
ucational divisions, 1t will subdivide
said divisions into school districts.
which districts must contain not less
than forty children of school age and
not more than 100.
On the first Saturday in August an
election must be held in each school
district for one trustee. The trustees
must be nominated by the petition OF
at least ten persons in his school dis
trict who are eligible to vote. The
election shall be by ballots which are
to be prepared and furnished by the
county court clerk and paid for by the
fiscal court of each county. The Off
GERS of election for each school dis
trict, shall be clerk and two judges,
who shall be appointed by the regu-
lar election commissioners Of the
county.
The new law does not interfere in
any way with the high schools of the
county which are already established.
The following is brief summary Of
une law WHOoe piVNlSiOhS mu0o NC ~
once complied with:
The law went into effect June Is,
1908. The county is to be divided
into educational divisions before July
10, 1908; each school sub-district elects
one trustee on the first Saturday In
August; the division boards organic
before August 81, 1908; the first cleo
ton of teachers under this law is held
the last Saturday in June, 1909; the
first meeting of the county board Of
education is held the first Saturday in
September, 1908.
1t will be seen tina. the school ses-
sion of 190S-9 will not be directed by
the new law. A bulletin will shortly
be issued, giving detailed information
and suggestions concerning the opera
ton of this law.-[Glasgow Times.

THE PARDON OF
CALEB POWERS
Reviewed by an Indepen-
dent Newspaper.
THINKS WILSON BLUNDERED
Afraid to Trust His Own Peo-
pie and a Judge Appoint
ed by Himself.

One of the most sensible editorials
we have read on the pardon of Powers
and Howard is by the Lexington
Herald. The Herald believes that
there are many in kentucky who be-
lieve that Powers is not wholly in
nocent of the charge of conspiracy to
murder Senator Goebel, and that there
are discriminating circumstances which
cause this belief. The Herald very
truthfully says:
THE pardon of Mr.. Powers at this
tire leaves the question of his guiE
or innocence undecided by a court
which has the thorough confidence Of
every citizen. Those who have be-
lieved, and now believe, Mr.. Powers
guilty, will continue to SO believe;
those who believed and predicted,
and there were thousands Wild didythat
Governor Wilson, in spite of his pre-
election promises, would grant a par
don to Powers and to Howard, will
continue to believe that he intended
so to do and will use this pardon as
a notification of their predictions.
"Those who believe Mr.. Powers in
nocent can not be more firmly con-
WINGED of his innocence than they
have heretofore been. We fear great
ly that instead Of these pardons re-
moving the question of the, Innocence
or guilt OF these men and OF the as
sassination of Governor Goebel from
political discussion, they will, for the
time being at least, revive animosi-
ties and intensity feeling"
Gov Wilson gives as one reason
for pardoning Powers that 1t had al
ready cost the State a considerable
sum of money, and that further ex-
pense was useless. The Herald
makes the following unanswersble
argument to that feature of the Gov
ernor's public communications:
at this time one of the main reas-
ons advanced for his pardon then has
almost disappeared, the fact that he
would have TO remain in Jail until
the time set for that trial, which is
now but a few weeks off; one Of the
reasons given for not having another
trial, is unworthy the. Governor of
Kentucky-that the trial would cost
the State a large amount of money.
1T were better for theState to spend
any amount of money to have these
cases settled so that every reasonable
citizen would agree in the justice and
fairness of the verdict than to have
them ended by the granting of par
don, which leaves the question of in
nocence or guilt a matter of private
discussion and partisan dissension."
In it's answer of the Governors
charge against the Democrats as to
the man hunc," the Herald uses the
following well-grounded arguments:
HE fails to tell that the officers
of the law who were in the build
ing from which the shot was fired
did not join in "the man hunt for tie
assassin; did not use every effort

While it is impossible to get any con- elusive information as to the vote in the Ninth district, it is beginning to appear evident that Sam Will John and J. G. Oakley will represent the Ninth district in the Denver delegation.
 These two led in Jefferson county, John, by a large majority. They also swept Perry county, Oakley getting the highest vote. It Is understood that the vote in Blount and Bibb was close and that Walker Percy received a good vote in these counties. The small electorate in these counties, however. will hardly change the balance.

Our own troubles always seem more se- were than others. But when man is unable to eat even a light breakfast, for years, with out severe distress, he has trouble enough

 After eating I would suddenly be seized with terrible attack of collie and vomiting. This would be followed by headache and misery that would sometimes last week two leaving me weak I could hardly sit up or walk.
 since I began to eat Grape-Nuts I have been free from the old troubles. I usually eat Grape Nuts food one or more times day taking 1t at the beginning of the meal. Now I can eat almost anything I want without trouble.
