Honest, Jim, Did You Go TO Bed
Right After Supper When You
Got to Louisville?

We are inclined to be just a little
like the editor OF the Paducah Sun
in so far as envying Editor Lemon,
of the Mayfield Messenger.
We know Mr.. Lemon very well.
for most OF his life he resided IN
this county, and but few newspaper
editors enjoy the privileges that come
to him.
We can't blame the editor OF the
Paducah Sun for feeling as he does
towards the editor OF the Mayfieid
Messenger, for We know from expert
ence that a hen-pecled husband
wishes he could enjoy life as does Mr.
Lemon.
There is the editor of the Paducah
Sun, as we'll as the editor of the Cal
vert City Times, can never be per
mitted to leave home without his wife
hanging to his coat tail.
AS a rule Paducah editors cannot
enjoy the open privileges that coma
to this Mayfield editor.
or course II the life OF the Sun
editor had been as il should have
been, today he would not be enjoying
that fearful distinction of being a
hen-pecked husband.
Even though We be publishing a
small paper at Calvert City. We can
not give our sympathy to the editor
of the Paducah Sun, who is constantly
burdened with the weight OF his wife
hanging to his coat tail. both at home
and abroad.-Calvert City Times.
We can't see why the editor of the
Sun and Calvert City Times shoult
envy the editor OF the Messenger. be
cause this editor enjoys the conf
dence of his wife and the genera
public. and his life at home anC
abroad is the samoan open book

House" is a school in the science of

teaches the unsophisticated member
OF the general assembly how he can
slip out of his seat and lurk in the
lobby whenever a measure TO which
he is pledged, but on which he has
opposite instructions from the Inner
Circle of legislative bosses. threat
ems to become voting issue on the
floor.
One of these members who sits in
the senate, and whose son sits with
him in the same body, Is alleged to
have vacated his seat when a county
unit vote was about to be precipitat-
ed and to have sent a hurry call for
his son, who was absent. to come
and cast his vote against the measure
to which the father was solemnly
pledged. Another senator stood at
the door OF the chamber while the
vote was being taken. and defied ev-
cry effort to make him keep his prom
Use to the people, giving as his ex-
cuse for evading responsibility that
he did not believe in the constitu-
tional practice OF calling a bill out
of committee.
This is the kind OF thing that is
going on at Frankfort. For us the
question of the county unit bill sinks
into insignificance beside the i'm
portance of this issue of keeping
faith with the electorate. Senator
Watkins has introduced a bill to
make the violation OF pledges a penal
offense. Tha. may not be practicable.
II is certain that no law of the kind
stands a chance in a Kentucky legis-
lature today. But there is need OF a
remedy. Probably the only certain
means rests with the people. Legis-
lators must be taught that betrayal
OF their constituents Is fatal to re-
election or further preferment. Pub
lie opinion should set a seal OF shame
and discredit upon men who lend
themselves as tools to the lobbyists

If ever a home paper pronounced

those words do not mean that the

of sentiment in these two business
or else the Bulletin
has misrepresented their attitude.
Now, we will enlighten the Bull

white mob that hanged the negroes
and attacked the jail, found its IN
ception in exactly the same sort OF
dives, and possibly the very same
dives, in which the negroes found
the instrumentality of their degrad-
alton and brutalisation. If crap
shooting, petty larceny and street

groes, does the Bulletin mean to in
fer that Cairo has not a white citi-
which INDUCES in the same
sort of diversions? Practically all
the disorder that occurs in the west

to the disorderly dives Of Cairo.
Cairo's black criminals and white
mobs are recruited from the same
quarters. and we shall do the busi-

try removing vice from the negro.
