Interesting Hunters Exhibit.

Local hunters are now busily en-
gagged in polishing things up, in
eager preparation for the serious
business of the year. That's why
they will be keenly interested in ths
unique window display of hunting
paraphernalia which Mr. August
Theiring has prepared for Hanh
Bros. the largest dealers and job
bers in sporting goods in this sec
ton of the state. Mr.. Theiring, who
is one of their crack travelling men
had ample material to work with
for they buy their shells by the car
load and immense quantities oil
guns, too. Winchester and Reming-
ton Pump and Automatic Shot Guns
and RIFLES are the heavy pieces oil
the display, and shells, cartridges
and cleaning apparatus of various
sorts are used for trimming.
The result is not only a work OF
art. but a splendid index to the low
prices and immense stock of this
popular house. Gun prices range
from SO to $25 for the best, and II
you're a hunter you'll surely want
to see the display. II you're merely
Interested in unique and ingenious
window displays, you will vote this
the best you have seen in many a
day.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
A Non-Partisan Plea.

EDITOR OF THE SUN, DEAR
SIR wish to avail myself of your
invitation to express my opinion.
concerning the local campaign, par
ticularly the school board outlook.
There will be eight trustees TO elect,
and four members go out this year.
Two of these are Democrats and two
Republicans. The Democrats are f.
]. Petit, of the First ward, and III.
b. Saltzgiver, of the Sixth ward. Mr..
Saltzgiyer was elected to fill the
vacancy in his ward by the present
board, which is Republican, and Mr..
Petit has supported the present or
ganization throughout. 1t seems to
me that the Democrats have simply
beaten the Republicans to the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Saltzgiver, the south
side member. and there is nothing
for the Republicans to do in his
case but to ratify the action of the
Republican board by putting him on
the Republican ticket. Mr.. Petit
has made a good record. has been
bipartisan, and in accordance with
the Republican claim of non-parti.
sanship, he should receive considera.
ton in the convention or primary tc
nominate candidates. These two mel
are as responsible as anyone else
for the good record of this board
A non-partisan ticket is what peo
pie of Paducah desire and non
/ partisan spirit is appreciated by thu
lvoters. / observe by your own new
lcolumns that the fusion movement
(which won in Lexington last year
will be tried again this year. Thu
people of Paducah, the majority o.
whom are Democrats. have frequent
| ly of late years elected Republicans
to Office. because they have lost con
fdence in the Democratic ring or
ganization and because the Republic
cans have shown non-partisar
spirit. II seems to me, who am one
of the Independent voters, that the
Republicans could make no stronger
plea for the support OF good citizens
this fall. than by endorsing for re-
election all good public servants
Irrespective of party, as long as

THE KENTUCKY MILITIA.

The Louisville Times, which re-
Gently originated a fake story to the
effect that the government would
not allow Kentucky's apportionment
OF the military fund, because the
regiments did not have a hospital
corps, maintains a stan correspond
ent at Fort Benjamin Harrison. Ind,
where the maneuvers are taking
place, apparently for the exclusive
purpose Of sending home disparaging
reports concerning Kentucky's
troops. When we remember that
Kentucky officers and men have had
more actual field duty than the
troops of any other state in the last
two years, that all during the to-
bacco troubles the officers and boys
conducted themselves with yalor and
discretion, restoring order where
anarchy had overthrow loea
authority, avoiding clashes with un-
friendly civil officers, at all times
amenable to strict discipline yet
able to cope with emergencies as
they arose, we cannot accept the
Times disparagements as offered
in any spirit except OF pique
and malice. The crack First
regiment of Louisville has
been trained under such competent
leadership as Col. William Halde-
man and Colonel Bingham, and We
would expect that organization to
display some of the effects Of their
training, even though they are not
now in command Of the regiment.

A SUCCESSFUL EXPERIMENT.


Oiling the streets was an expert
ment in Paducah this summer. and
as the season is drawing to a close
We are able to pass judgment on the
plan. We are thoroughly convinced
that the preparation of oil and as
phaltum is a decided success in
keeping down dust and preserving a
solid road bed Not only is the
crown of the streets preserved from
disintegration and the discomforts
OF dust laden air obviated. but it is
probable that the oiling has oper-
ated as a check on germ diseases,
though that result can be only mega
lively predicated on the theory that
dry particles floating in the air are
densely populated with bacteria.
Some OF the streets, 1t is true,
are now becoming dusty. but the
condition OF Fountain avenue be-
tween Broadway and Jefferson street
for instance. shows that where the
oil is properly applied it will last a
full season. Some places, perhaps,
the foundation was not quite prop
erly prepared; in others the oil was
not applied thickly enough. There
is no economy in applying too little.
All this was an experiment. and the
lessons learned will benefit us in
the future, since. no doubt, the oil
ing Of streets will be adopted as a
fixed policy by the city, and next
year more money should be appro-
priated and the oil applied to more
streets.
