THE tobacco regions of Kentucky
are still in a ferment over the out
RACES of the nightriders, who are trying
to compel all producers Of tobacco to
pool their crops before offering them
for sale. There have been number
Of whippings and burninss lately, in
the efforts of the nightrider element to
enforce their policy and Governor
Wilson has brought himself into ma
tional notoriety by advising the peo-
pie who are not inclined to obey the
nightriders by protecting themselves
with shotguns. The whole situation
is indeed trying one; but we do not
think that the governors advice is
very creditable to either his judgment
or fitness for his place. AS we under
stand the situation, we greatly sympa-
thize with the nightriders in their
grievance; but not in their methods.
The grievance Of these people arises
out of the fact that the American
Tobacco company, having stamped out
position and power to make the tobac-
CO growers take whatever buyers
choose to give for their product. This,
Of course, is contrary to the spirit OF
all the laws and is an outrage on COM
mon justice; but the plan pursued by
the nightriders Is not calculated to
furnish reasonably satisfactory rem
edy. Even if it should succeed in
forcing up prices, 1t will leave a her
itage Of lawlessness that will give
more trouble and sorrow even than
starvation prices for tobacco. And we
are frank to say that the governors
advice is no wiser than the action of
the nightriders. In effect he tells law
abiding citizens to go and attempt to
fight it out singie-handed with a horde
of organized desperadoes. WHAT
chance could law-abiding citizens have
in such a conflict? To us the situa-
ton appears to be exceedingly grave,
and the only remedy we can see is for
all law-abiding citizens to get behind
the law, if there Is any in that coun-
try, make the nishtriders behave
themselves and then also do what they
can to compel the American Tobacco
company to do the fair thing. While
it seems pretty evident that the trouble
is not to be corrected without more or
less violence, it is reasonably certain
that lawlessness will not help any
thing.

WITHIN THE TOWN.

The paving work on Congress
street is being finished this week, and
there is a common feeling Of satisfac-
ton at the prospect Of being able to
cross the business portion of upper
Congress street at any time this win
ter, without having to wade up to the
shoe mouth in mud. The idea that this
paving work is the most advanced step
the town has yet taken has become
pretty general.

The Men Who Count.

While it takes all kinds of people tc
make a world and while almost every
community has a pretty complete as
sortment, still 1t is a fact that one
particular kind of men invariably com
mand the greatest respect and WELD
the most permanent influence among
their fellows wherever they may be
placed.
And the men who command the
greatest influence are those who pay
their honest debts, speak the truth, in
variably align themselves on the side
of justice and always stand for the
right. There are few men, Of course
who measure entirely up to this de-
to it always count for the most.
Let the reader sit down and take a
mental inventory Of the men of his
town and community, and although he
conspicuous as compared with the 9TH
ers, some who are popular and some
who are not, some who have very good
qualities mixed with very bad ones
some who seem naturally to take the
initiative in all matters requiring the
services of leader, he will invariably
find that the men who come nearest tc
trying to do the square thing on al
occasions, are the ones who command
the confidence and esteem of theil
neighbors and acquaintances to the
greatest extent.
There are men for instance, who are
loud and mouthy, men who are tricky
and INSCRIPTIONS, men who are con-
stantly seeking notoriety and leader
ship, and who often attain both, and
amC ng these are men to whom their
neighbors at first blush, would attach
real importance; but when the honest
estimate of their neighbors Is sifted

Is waking up to a realization Of the
fact that the nations which America
