VETERAN EDITOR 70
YEARS OLD

Louisville, Ky, Feb. 16.-Henry
Watterson, the veteran editor of the
Courier-Journal and often referred
to as the foremost journalist of the
South, celebrated the SEVENTEEN an
niversary of his birth today and was
the recipient of many congratula-
lions. Family bereavements and fail
ing eyesight have combined to cause
the veteran editor to relinquish act
i've work almost wholly during the
past year, but his interest in public
affairs is as active and his pen as
ready, when he chooses to use it, as
in the stirring days of his youth when
he was editor of the saucy "Chatta-
nooga Rebel"
Mr.. Watterson was born in the
storm-center of national politics, at
Washington, February 16, 1910. In
consequence of defective eyesight,
which has always troubled him, he
was oChI UuL llltIc " IuC pupliS
schools, but received much careful
education at home At the COM
mencement of the war he enlisted in
the Confederate army and became
chief of scouts for Gen. Joseph e.
Johnston. At the end of the war he
made his way practically penniless to
Louisville, where a few years later
he joined w. d. Haldeman in the
newspaper enterprise which made
fame and fortune for both of them.
Mr. Watterson became active in pol
itics in 1872, and between that time
and 1892 no democratic platform was
written without his aid and counsel
He presided over the convention that
nominated Tilden, and was promi-
nent as a leader and platform Trainer
until the convention of 1896 which
nominated William J. Bryan upon a
free silver platform, and called forth
from Mr. Watterson, then in Switzer-
land, the famous telegram, mo COM
promise with dishonor"-a message
that confirmed w. n Haldeman, own
er of the Courier-Journal, in his de-
termination to oppose Mr.. Bryan.

CITY BUILDING INSPECTOR WILL
NOT ISSUE A PERMIT FOR EREc-

The county commissioners are up
against an unexpected proposition in
their attempts to erect a Jail building
at the corner of Jefferson and Zarra-
gossa streets. City Building Inspector
Jas. M. Johnson will not grant a per-
nit for the erection of the building,

to the building laws.
Il will not issue a permit for the
erection of any such building in the
city limits said Mr.. Johnson to a
Journal representative hast night. Il
have examined, with competent en-
gineer these plans and specifications,
and they do not conform in many par
ticulars to the city. building laws, a
copy of which was furnished Mr.. Benz
before he started work on the plans.
When application is made for per
NIT none will be granted. unless the
plans and specifications, which are
faulty in many respects, are re-de-
signed"
