Free Speech and Free Press

The Postoffice Department takes the
position that freedom of the press dues
not mean freedom of the mails. But
what is freedom of the mails? It is a
new term. Who shall say what con-
stitutes freedom of the mails? 1t
looks like a judicial question; but the
Postmaster General. as an executive
officer. feels no hesitancy in deciding
it. In our anxiety to squelsh pestifer-
Gus anarchists we must not forget that
our constitutional right to free speech
is closely allied to freedom of the
mails and in submitting to the curiail-
ment of may be laying the ground work
for suppressing the most valued ad.
juncts of liberty-free- speech and q
free press.

The Great Reform Party.

By the 5oldest and most unblushing
fraud, by disorder borderingTat times
upon blOOdshed. by working the Taft
machine at its highest tension and in
voking the aid OF a certain class of
police and detectives, Republican city
and county officials succeeded Saturday
in overcoming the overwhelming FAIR
banks sentiment in Louisville and ap-
parently showing on the face of the
farcical returns a majority in Louis
vile for Secretary Taft. Not since
the Republican outrage some years
ago, when James f. Grinstead was
nominated for Mayor and a crowd of
workers broke into storage room for
ballot boxes, robbed the boxes and
burned the ballots, has anything hap
pened to equal Saturdays disgrace.
The primary was called under no law
and the bOldeSt disregard for decency
in primaries was exercised, those in
command safe from the laws clutches.
This made the primary what NJ. H.

terized as ''the most infamous in the
history OF Kentucky. y Courier-J our

The Republican Cat Fight.

IF it were not for the habit the Re-
publicans have of lining up for the
ticket when the time comes regardless
of previous scraps, we think that the
cat fight in that party might result in
the total extinction Uf the cats. What
the leaders are saying about each other
can not be published in clean family
paper like The Bourbon News, but if
what the leaders say Of each other is
true, the devil is being cheated out of
his dues every day they remain on
earth. Out IN the First district DebOe
ruled TWO ways in the same convention,
and he. Fisher, Speight and others are
hurting the lie hack and forth like the
hall in a tennis court. Henry Stone
talks right cut in meeting about Brad
ley and the latter answers In kind.
Sam Roberts blisters the pages of his
paper in his abuse of the newly elected
Senator, and Bradley gives him as good
as ne sends. Secretary Ben Bruner
says all Postmasters act under orders
from Washington, and Postmaster
Perry, of Winchester, tells him to his
teeth that he lies. Of all the leaders
Gov. Wilson is the only one that tries
to sit on the fence and he is abused i'm
partially by all the rest. Although 1t
seems that Old Nick is to pay and the
cauldron of pitch is hot and getting
hotter. May the Lord increase their
troubles.

Tariff Fakirs.

President Roosevelt, it is said, takes
kindly to the Fairbanks plan of a
special session for revision of the tariff
Immediately after the election-tha
is, by the present Congress instead Of
leaving the matter to the Congress that
will come into power after March 4.
What is the good of these tariff-fakirs
telling of the great things they will
do latter election" when nothing is
attempted before election. If tariff
revision is needed so badly that it must
be undertaken in November. why has
the President and Congress been stand
ing pat since last December?

A Bold Step.

To overcome the well-grOunded and
reasonable objections of the more intel
igent to the use of secret, medicinal COM
pounds, DIR. E. V. Pierce, Of Buffalo, n.
Y, some time ago. decided to make bold
departure from the usual course pursued
by the makers Of yut-up medicines for do
nestle use, and so has published broad
east and openly to the whole world, full
and complete list Of all the ingredients
entering insS-the composition Of his widely
celebrated GCdicMes. Thus he has taken
his numers1s PATRONS and patients into
his full S0nf&ence. Thus too ne has re-
movedhisfnedicines from among secret
noStrkDSof doubtful merits, and made
themL12emedies Of KTOlCTI Composition.
BY this bold step Dr.. Pierce has shown
that llS formulas are OF such EXCELLENCE
thai he is nod RfCal1 to subject them To
efulleSt scrutiny.
Not only does the wrapper of every bottle

famous medicine for weak stomach. torpid
liver or biliOuSneSS and all catarrhal diseases
wherever located. have printed upon it, in
plain English. full and comDlete list of all
the ingredients composing 1t, but a small
book has been compiled from numerous
standard mef cal works. of all the different
schools of D. .ctice. containing very numer-
Gus extracts from the writings of leading
practitioners OF medicine. endorsing in the
strongest possible terms. each and every ingre-
dent contained in DR.. Pierce's medicines

book it will be learned that DR.. Pierce's med

A Bit O. History.

In the year 1890 there was in New
York a coalition of five, more or less
financially embarrassed, cigarette fac
tories. The combination was chiristen-
ed the American Tobacco Company.
Stock wss issued to the amount of $25,
600, 600 snl sold to the dear public at
III.
The buyers of this stock were kept
partially pleased for three years by
the payment of dividents, whether
the stock earned dividends or not, but
they were very much displeased when
the dividends ceased the fourth year.
What was the result of their dispieas-
ure? Fear and disgust and the unload
ing of their shares at "any old price,
until it wasn't long until what they
paid 1T for was selling at so. or there
abouts.
This stock was gobbled up by lieuten-
ants of the promoters when twas fore
ed sufficiently low, and when it was ali
in the hands of those in the Inner
Circle those on the ground floor, "
there was a reorganization under the
name, Continental Tobacco Co. The
new organization devoted its attention
to the manufacturer and manufacturers
of plug. A fighs was started against
the Independents, many of whom were
forced out of business. in its effort
to destroy Liggett & Myers, of st.
Louis, it brought out Battle AK plug
and spent 5000, 900 in exploiting it in
opposition to the L. & M. brands. Then
an auxiliary, the Union Tobacco Co.,
was started and Liggett & Myers taken
over at immense profits to themselves.
The extra taxson tobacco. on account
of the Spanish War, was now taken
advantage of to depress the price OF
stock and it went down to 81. The
lieuteuants got busy again buying it
up. When the extra tax was removed
the stock went bounding up and it is
estimated by those who were in posi-
ton to know the facts, that the public
lost 500, 900 in the jockeying.
Then there was another reorganiza-
ton October, 1909 and it was re-
chr:stened the American Tobacco Com
pany, and that's the company now be-
ing whipped to standstill by the
brawny and brainy tobacco farmers of
Kentucky.
The result of the valient fight put
up by these Kentuckians will be
another change in the name of this
plygenetic trust.
That fight has attracted the atten-
ton of the whole people lawmakers
included) to the methods of this trust
and there is no doubt it will be renam-
ed and take new course.
This prosecuting, prosecuting trust
has been scotched only, not killed. 1t
will, we predict, in the near future,
under a new title and with a new
policy try to evade death that would
be sure 20 result if it kept on under its
present name AMI policy.
1t may take any name it will. but
never again shall it get toacco for less
than a price profitable to the growers.

Montana Grown Seed.
H~usDandnlan.


The growing OF seeds to supply the
seed houses and the wants of farmers
OF the older states is an industry
which suggests itself as being very
promising. /. u. O'Donuell, com.
menting or the marvellous sale of
l52-bushels per acre oats of Hesper
farm last spring, suggested the idea
II Montana devoting itself 70 seed
proc icing. The success of the Catlin
Land u Live Stock company last
winter in marketing a large quantity
OF oats to a Minneapolis house for
seed purposes is another instance that
suggests the ad%visability of Montana
farmers doing good work in keeping
their farms clean and selling the r o
largely for seed purposes. There Is
nothing produced On the continent
that makes such a splendid appearance
as does the Montana grown seed. Not
only is the grain superior, bu. other
seeds also are very fine. The alfalfa
seed grown here Is the finest ia the
world and the demand for alfalfa seed
is Increasing every year. The older
states are now beginning to grow al.
fatta and the seed for this demand
mus. be grown in the arid region.
