DEMOCRATIC EDITOR DEFENDS
GOVERNORS NIGHT RIDER POLICY

came into Office. The people had
appealed for protection, for per.
mission to have a detail from
their own military company
placed on duty at night, but the
request was denied. The In
vaslon came and the sleeping
town put up the best defense 1t
could, rousing the people in
time to at least pursue and kill a
few of the fleeing outlaws. The
soldiers were called out and
were on duty when Gov. Wilson
assumed office. He acted with
vigor and decision. He strength
ened the militia, established
headquarters and put resolute
and experienced officers in com
mand with orders to break up
night riding. Let it be said to
his everlasting praise that he
never weakened, even when
threatened with personal vio-
lence, but continued his policy
until peace was restored.
He soon found that the coun-
ties whose local officials would
not ask for soldiers were the
very counties that harbored
might riders" who preyed upon
the people of other counties.
His patrol system, by which
mounted men were sent to break
up unlawful meetings, at an ex-
pense Of $4,000, finally did the
work. The leaders left the
country, the bands we're broken
up and the people, once freed
from intimidation, had courage
to talk. The soldiers soon knew
who the might riders" we're
and where they held their meet
ings. Their identity once es-
tabliShed, the rest was easy.
Soldiers and Federal courts soon
did what county officials and To-
cal courts had failed to do
stopped the reign of terror.
The Legislature Committee
only covers itself with shame 81
condemning Governor for up
holding the law. The thinlg
rlders' praising them with faint
condemnation, is most hnmiliat-
ing TO every good citizen who
knows the facts.
The Democrats in the General
Assembly, some of them under
indictment themselves, and 9TH
ers under open charges Of cor
ruption from one of their own
members, can do no greater
service to the Republicans in
the coming campaign than by
making night riding an issue
with the Democratic party COM
mitted in its defense.

| From the Hopkinsville Kentuckian.l
The Joint Committee on Mill
tary Affairs, with no evidence
before it to substantiate its re.
port, has severely criticised Gov,
Wilson for his conduct in sup
pressing the might riders" Of
Western Kentucky by sending
soldiers into counties whose local
authorities were either controlled
or terrofized by the lawless
bands that were nightly going
forth to shoot and burn. Of the
justice of the structures upon
Gov. Wilson for his re-organlz
tion of the First Regiment, the
Kentuckian knows nothing, but
of the charges that money was
unnecessarily or extravagantly
expended in breaking up the
bands of night riders it knows
much and knows that the charg-
es are untrue. Whatever may
be Gov. Wilson's falkland he
has the grevious one of being a
blind partisan, who does not al
ways keep his campaign pledges
the State owes him a debt of
gratitude for his patriotic serv-
ices IN restoring law and order
in Western Kentucky. The re-
port says it cost $189, 900 to do it,
and no money was ever more
wisely spent IN Kentucky. His
"night rider" campaign did
much to redeem the good name
of Kentucky, and was of far
more benefit to the State than
the present General Assembly
can possibly accomplish.
At the time his 300 soldier
boys-as 4 brave a band as
ever riskE Their lives 10 any
war-were Mt in the field,it was
openly boasfed thai 10000 oath
bound outlaws were in a position
to defy the courts, trample upon
the laws and overrun the coun-
try at night to murder, DESTROY
and intimidate, raiding cities,
shooting into houses and driving
women into insane asylums. The
reign of terror, for the lack of a
strong arm to cope with it, had
spread into an incipient revolu-
tion, an armed rebellion against
the States authority.
Three days after one of the
mob's worst raids upon an un-
protected town Gov. Wilson

CANADIAN LINE
GRAND TRUNK TO CELEBRATE
FIFTH ANNIVERSARY by
STARTING WORK ON NEW
RAILROAD PROJECT.

Winnipeg Man, Aug. 81 Next
week the Grand Trunk Pacific Rail-
way will celebrate the 6fth anniver-
sary of the beginning of its con-
struction by opening the government
section between Winnipeg ana Su-
perior Junction, 2SO miles. The great
project of a national railway was
started in September, 1905, when Sir
Wilfrid Laurler turned the first sod
at Fort William. At about the same
time the actual construction was
commenced on the prairie section
west of Winnipeg. Since then thous-
ands of men have been at work with
the result that the great project. which
means so much to western Canada, is
rapidly nearing completion.
The line from Winnipeg to Edmon-
ton was opened year ago. The
completion of the Superior Junction
branch will allow the road to be op-
Grated from Fort William through to
Edmonton, about 1,iOO miles This
will enable the new transcontinental
line to move this years grain crop
next month.
The placing of Edmonton, which is
in the heart of the great wheat belt,
in direct communication with Fort
William, the great grain outlet for
western Canada, marks another epoch
of western development and has deep
significance to both cities. Edmon-
ton appears destined to become the
great railroad center of Alberta and
will rapidly take its place among the
grdt cities of the west II is prob
able the opening of the new line will
be appropriately celebrated.
