Courier-Journai.

Considering that business conditions
were greatly depressed in 1908 the
coal mining industry Of the western
district of Kentucky has made good
showing. The figures az given out
from the Office OF the inspector Of
mines show total output of 5,634,-
sec tons.
In point OF production Muhlenberg
county is at the top of the list with
I1,774,3l4 tons. Hopkins county is a
close second with 1,772.553. Ohio
countyt comes third in the list with
6O2,31t Webster and Union are
close together in the order named
with a total OF 55S,442 tons in the
former and 51S.O15 in the latter.
Henderson county makes a return OF
226,152 tons. OF the remaining
counties in the district Mclean pro-
duced 97,2S7 tons; Daviess, 52,65s;
Christian, 33,191. and Butler. 4.96s.
With the return OF business and
Industrial prosperity and with the
progress OF development the present
year shpuld show a material increase

dustfy d western Kentucky is attain
ing 1afger proportions every year
More and more 1t is attracting the at
tenHpn pfsthe outside world and in
recent Years large sums have been
expe1dsl by eastern capitalists in the
developpent of new mines.
THERE yet remain IN western Ken
lucky vast coal fields either undevel-
oped or practically untouched. This
coal at no distant day will be needed
IN the markets of the world. Capital
will seek II out as other fields are ex-.
hansted or abandoned; new veins will
be tested by the miners pick and

duced which will largely increase pro-

spring up while old ones are re-
viewed.
1t needs no prophetic eye TO foresee
that great things are in store for

district.

THE ETHICS OF 1T.

Some people lump all ethics as
casuistry.
Unthinking criticism was offered
county officials and the physicians
for trying to resucitate George Free
man In order that he might be
hanged. Our ethics sometimes be-
come confused when we view things
in perspective. To the casual OBJ
server, Freeman had to die anyway,
and IL he killed himself it made no
difference. That was Freeman's
view, all right; but not that of the
physicians, for instance. With the
hanging of Freeman they had moth
ing to do, nor did that enter into the
ethics of the case. All they con-
sidered was that before them lay a
human being. suffering from the
effects of some drug, and II was
their duty to resuscitate him IL pos
sible. The same ethics applied to
the county officials. The attempted
suicide of Freeman and his execu-
tion on the next day, were discon-

trying TO save him, would have made

But one may insist what makes the

This is the difference. The deliberate

noon a change was noticed In his
condition. and the doctors. who work
ed patiently over Freeman gave up
hope. As a last resort oxygen was
given the patient, and everything
that might aid the condemned man
was done. When the oxygen was
given he rallied slightly. but the sup
ply was exhausted before another
tube was secured. However, before
death oxygen was given again, but
he was too weak, and died Freeman
was a strong man physically. and de-
spite the fact that he had been in
jail fifteen months he was In good
condition.
Soon after death Coroner Frank
Eaker took charge OF the body, and
II was removed to the undertaking
establishment OF Mattll-Ehnger n
Roth. where an autopsy was held last
night by County Physician Young and
Drs. Rivers and Bass. The stomach
