and order are to be supplanted
by violence and anarchy.

Our clever little jailer, Will
Wallace is so ingraciating him
self in the hearts of the people
and becoming so popular both as
a man and an officer that it is
going to be hard to keep him
from a second term. No man
has looked after the Jail, court
House and its beautiful yard, or
been more attentive to the
courts and officers than has this
clever little gentleman. He is a
daisy in full bloom.
And just such men, we are
proud to say are all our officers;
Judge Walter A. Blackburn,
Sheriff Joel A. C. Pickens, Cir
cult clerk, Joseph G. Rochester
county clerk, L. E. Guess and
Miss Leaffa Wilborn assistant
county clerk. and clever little
Jno. A. Moore our popular at
torney.
All Of theses officers are COM
petent and by their efficiency in
office have won the hearts of
the people.
This is a mixed brigade Of
Democrat and Republicans, but
the editor of the Record-Press
never notices party lines when
good men are concerned, giving
credit where credit belongs.
And if this same party line was
overlooked by the whole people
all the time when it comes
to selecting the best men to fill
county Offices, our county would
prosper beyond our conception
and bloom as the rose of Sharon.
Elect such officers as now
grace our court house even to the
third term if they be the most
comp ,tent.

second term.
The appointment will be made
by Judge Walter Evans, of the

this afternoon.
Judge Blackburn arrived in
Louisville today and was in the
United States Court this morn
ing. 1t is not known who will

THE OHIO CRIME

The state of Ohio stands dis
graced before the world. The
lynching of a young man barely
more than a boy by a cowardly
pack of bloodthirsty citizens"
God save the mark. at New
ark. was one of the most brutal
and wholly indefensible mob
crimes Of the many that have
stained the records Of that state.
The young fellow. employed by
the Anti-Saloon League, with
others, with others, to serve
warrants upon illegal liquor sell
lers, was, according to newspa-
per reports. pursued by a crowd
of speak-easy patrons and SYM
pathizers and roughly handled.
In self defense, it appears, he
shot one of his pursuers. But
whether or not the shooting was
justified, the fact remains that
the victim of the lynching was
in custody in the county Jail,
with no possibility of escape from
the legal consequences of his
act, when the mob of friends
broke into the prison, dragged
him out and hanged him to a tel
ephone pole.
1t is fortunate that Ohio has a
man of the caliber of Judson
Harmon as governor. lmmedi-
ately upon news of the mob's
crime reaching him, Governor
Harmon left his vacation outing
and started for the scene Of the
outrage. Instantly he instituted
proceedings to make the ring
leaders in the lynching and those
officials who, by failure to pro-
tect their prisoner, were parties
to the crime, suffer for their an
arehv. 1t is high time that an
example should be made, that
blood lustful towards who go to
make up mobs and chicken-giz-
card officials who bow in craven
obeisance to the worst elements
of society shall have a lesson in
delibly impressed upon them.
Those responsible for the New
ark crime are neither more nor
less than deliberate murderers
and must be treated as such i'm
der our system of government is
to be confessed a failure and law

The whiskey people are using
some of the most absurd argu-
ments any sane man ever heard
of. For instance that more
liquor is being sold in local OPP
ton territory now than before
t he damned stuff was voted out,
and and that the revenue re-
ceipts are now greater than
ever before, all of which if true
would class them among the big
gest fools on earth for wanting
to vote it back. Why don't
they go to our jails and grave
yards for proof that whiskey is
an evil and a curse and to our
banks that there are thousands
of men in local option territory
now with bank accounts that
never had before. The. keeper

History Repeats Itself.

Those who are watching the
antics of the republican insur-
gents, may call to mind that this
is not the first time the tail has
tried to wag the dog
In 1872 a coterie of would be
republican leader seeded, called
themselves Liberal Republi-
cans" and landed in the demo
cratic party.
The low tariff republican was
a "Mugwump' in 1888 and 1890,
and democrat in 1892
Many of the Gree Silver Re-
publicans' of 1896 were demo-
Gratis in 1898.
The insurgent congressman of
to-day fondly imagines himself
guiding the republican elephant
in 1912; but like his predecessors
he will find that be has become
a small section of that portion Of
the democratic donkey's anatomy
that brushes off the flies. Thus
does history repeat itself.

PAW PAW BARRIERS might just
as well prepare for the worst.
The popular reform wave is
about to invade the realms of
tonsorial artists. An ordinance
has been passed in a western
state, making it unlawful for
BARRIERS to eat onions during
working hours, to insert a
thumb, finger or brushbroom in
a customers mouth, to discuss
the gossip of the town, or to in
sist on customer having his
neck shaved or hair singed.
Some are inclined to think that
this radical reform movement
will eventually lead up to the
millennium.

Don't accidentally place those
little false side curls in your hus-

Don't scold your husband for

he still is your husband just the
same-just the same.
Don't buy a hat that hangs

The Parcels Post.

The Grange will be interested
to know that the parcels post
plan has a chance of being tried
out soon on the same scale which
marked the birth of the rural
free delivery, which, it will be
remembered, was inaugurated
less than fifteen years ago by
the establishment of rural routes
in TWO counties. So popular did
the free delivery become, that
there are nearly 10000 routes
today, maintained at an expense
of over 35,000,000 annually.
Senator Burrows has drafted an
amendment to the post office
appropriation bill, which pro
vides that parcels post shall be
tried in two counties just as was
the rural free delivery plan. If
it is successful, no doubt it will
be extended as widely in time as
was the rural free delivery.
The following is copy of the
amendment:

proposed by Mr.. Burrows to the
