munity. 1t would be difficult to over
estimate the amount of good which
can be done by the men responsible
for such a pubhcation--responsible
for its editorial columns, responsible
for its news columns, responsible for
its general policy. We have many
and periodicals, big and
little, of this kind. But we also have
many that are emphatically not of
this kind.
During the last few years it has
become lamentably evident that GER
tain daily newspapers, certain period
icals, are owned or controlled by men
of vast wealth, in evil fashion, who
desire to stifle or twist the honest ex-
preston of public opinion, and who
find an instrument fit for their pur-
pose In the guided and purchased
mendacity of those who edit and
write for such papers and periodi-
Gals.
''These men sheer at the very idea
of paying heed to the dictates Of a
sound morality. AS one of their num-
Der has cynically put it, they are
concerned morally with selling the
public whatever it will buy-a theory
of conduct which would justify the
existence of every keeper of an opium
den, of every foul creature who min
listers to the vices Of mankind. Here
again it is perhaps not especially to

DIES OF HEART FAILURE
Gallant Confederate Veteran Passes
Away At His Home in
Paris.

PARIS, Ky, March Cool. Al
exander t. Forsyth, the veteran auc-
tioneer and one of the best known
men in Central Kentucky, passed
awav' at 2:15 o'clock yesterday
morning at his home on Mt. Airy
avenue of heart failure.
Col. Forsyth was native of Bour-
bon and a man of wide information
concerning the more prominent fami-
lies of the county, both of the present
and past generations. He could call
the name of nearly every citizen of
the county and as an auctioneer had
but few equals and no superiors.
=, Col. Forsyth was a gallant Confed-
crate soldier, a member of Company
c, Ninth Kentucky Cavalry, Orphan
Brigade, commanded by the late Col.
w. c. p. Breckenridge, and up to the
death of the latter was his personal
and intimate friend. Col. Forsyth
was for many years Chief of Po-
lice of Paris, and was a member of
