story Of all the Elks putting on over
alls and helping their exalted ruler
save 5000 tons Of ice in his burned
ice plant
These incidents smack of the good
old country practice OF "neighbor-
ing. II is human kindness. and 1T is
fun. We venture to say those Elks
never had so much fun before in
their lives, and never will have more
at any one time. You know, those
night riders were enjoying them
selves. They found the key to hap
piness. Those men were doing more
to bring about the era of the broth
erhood of man, than all the Socialist
speeches that ever have been made
That old farmer may have been a
pessimist. He may have met with
reverses that soured him on the
world. He may have been the victim
of other mems shrewdness. II so.
that night rider visitation must have
opened his eyes to something Of the
sweetness of human nature at its
best.
The exalted ruler of the Maryville
Elks was a good fellow, Of course;
but he now has a deeper appreciation
of friendship, benevolence and broth
erly love.
"Who is my neighbour" asked a
disciple
The old farmer was the neighbor
of the benevolent night riders. Their
exalted ruler was the neighbor of the
Maryville Elks.
There is a charity that Is cold, con-
temptuous and hurtful-the charity
that gives out of its bounty what il
can spare without inconvenience.
There is a charity whose spirit i'm
poses no obligation on the recipient;
because II repays the giver a thou
sand fold before his gift is completed,
by the quiekening power of an in
ward revelation. u-'
There are pleasures that bear their
price marks. and he who cannot af-
ford their transient delights, takes
them at his own risk: but the pleas
ure of being a neighbor to ones
neighbor is an investment that
returns a sure profit in health, peace
and long life. We recommend a little
neighboring to our "class conscious"
fellowmen.

Quoted the whole disgraceful affair
What would the lawyers of this Judi
cial district think of Judge Reed
should go into the quarterly court
of McCracken county, supersede the
judge of that court. in athe interest
of some litigant, in a case, that
might probably be appealed to his
court for final trial? This is a
parallel case, and of course II an
appeal should be taken before Judge
Berry. as state central committee
man. he would sustain his own hand
work, no matter how fraudulent OF
disgraceful.
These are stubborn facts that can
not be refuted. which proves beyond
doubt, that the Second senatorial
district has no Democratic nominee
and any Democrat has as much right
as Mr.. Eaton to be a candidate fol-
that position and ask the support oil
the Democrats of the district. The
rank and file of the Democratic
party of these four counties are
loyal and true. but they have decid'
ed that they will no longer be made

furthering the interests of a few
rich corporations in the city OF Pa

district, he can enjoin Mr.. Eaton''
name being placed under the Demo
cratic device, and, in our opinion
there is not court in the state that
would not sustain the injunction.

Today we sing the praises of
plucky Galveston and her sea wall.
Once the nation mourned for Calves
ton. 1t required the slaughter of her
citizens and destruction of her prop
erty to compel Galveston to take pre-
cautions against a danger that she
knew existed. Thus do we all. We
have school houses ill-provided with
fire escapes; we have dangerous cross
ings; and conditions that menace US
with epidemics every year. After the
yellow fever scourge the south began

sacrifice always an essential condi-
tion precedent to human advance
ment?

cUMMTNs EXPOSES A TRICK


Senator Cummins' statement, re-
garding the attitude "Progressives'
in the senate and Of President Taft,
is significant. Il has been suspicious
ly emphasized that President Taft is
making fight for free raw material.
One can see the general drift Of that
argument The whole effect of II
would be to arouse the local preju-
dlces of representatives from those
sections, where raw material is pro-
duced, and who might fear the presi-
dent was favoring manufacturing sec
lions In the distribution of tariff
favors. Did that feeling gain strength
with the press, Democratic and Re-
publican representatives and senators
from those sections might easily be
overwhelmed with messages from
home. that would drive them into the
Aldrich camp in opposition to the
presidents suggestions.
President Taft already has CON-
PEELED the reduction of rates on all
manufactured articles Aldrich and
his crowd readily assented TO that,
but with political cunning were pre-
pairing to center the fight on free raw
material. hoping TO prevent major
ity for the presidents program and
slip the senate rates on New Eng
lands products through during the
melee.
Senator Cummins spoke just in
time. and probably by inspiration,
since his statement was made after
an interview at the white house.

SOME STORIES
AROUND TOWN

Hon. A. ]. G. Wells. member OF
the state board of control and county
judge of Galloway when night riding
was in flower, arrived in Paducah to-
day from Lexington. Since entering
on his state duties Judge Wells has
accumulated about 80 pounds avoir-
dupois, The people of Galloway know
whether he was always a STRIPPING,
but in Paducah his friends are rally
ing him on the fact that the night
riders kept him scared thin. At any
rate, he is hardly recognizable. II
may be that in the very nature of the
man he IS gradually developing to
the stature of Statesman. 1t is sus-
pected that Galloway county will not
appear in public print much longer
associated with Judge Wells name,
except as the incubating place of his
reputation.

Mr.. James Parks, manager of the
Metropolis bending works, Mr.. Vance
Parks and Mr.. Chase returned today
from a southern trip in the interest
of the concern and are registered at
the Palmer House. Mr.. James Parks
said: Metropolis is one of the few
towns in the United States not ad-
versely affected by the panic. It so
happened that her factories enjoyed
good business during the year just
ended; labor was employed and
wages we're slightly advanced. It is
true also that an unusual amount of
building, painting and repairing was
going on during 1908 and up to the
present time. So Metropolis Is In a
condition to enjoy to the utmost the
advantages of the new railroad oper-
ations"

 The genial collector said that he had been brought up ''in the old fashion ed school which taught the exhibition of kindness and courtesy to those who are aged" "I have no controversy '' said he, "and neither will I enter in to one. I cling to my own ideas and I pick out my own friends This I shall continue to do. I shall always select my own friends. have nothing to fear because there is nothing to fear.
