CONSISTENCY

1t Is amusing to note by the
headlines of the Mountain Echo,
of London, that they are "UN-
SWERVING IN THEIR 10y
ATTY TO THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY" Probably it would
cause a pang to remove this time
honored motto after it has stood
for the past forty years. No
doubt the present editor has
thought to remove it many times
since he thought he saw the
dawning of a new political party
on the horizon, but even then
the phrase would look awkward
to read "A paper devoted to the
interest of the Kentucky Noun
tains" were it not followed by
answering in its loyalty to the
Republican Party" Let it
stand Brother Stevenson though
it is inconsistent with the edi-
torials contained within, though
it is merely a jargoing of mean
ingless words, Though the pres
ent ownership repudiate the
great party that has helped de-
velop and make these mountains
of ours all that they are today.
We love the Echo for it was Oh
this that we learned our A, b,
C's years ago and we want to
think of it for what it was aud
its purpose years ago when the
Republican party was yet i'll its
infancy and was struggling for
recognition of the mountains and
her people, when the odds were
80 overwhelming against US.
This is the Echo We love; the
one that has taught us from our
infancy that all our great coun-
try now is and all the recogni-
tion the mountain people now
receive, we owe to the nnceas-
ing and untiring efforts of the
good Republican statesmen who
preceded us. Let us continue
to think OF the Echo as being
an instrument that helped us to
grow and develop into the great
est section of the Commonwealth
of Kentucky and helped build
up this great party. Let us not
think of it as a disrupter and de-
stroyer of the great party OF OUR
people. Let us remember it on.

THE GAME

The opening of the political

ready We have'heard the low
rum bling of the' announcement
that " might be a candidate
next fall" and from the post
office of Scalf where our cores
pondent states that Mr.. Thomas
G. Hammons has assured mis-
friends that he would be cam
didate for County Judge in the
coming primary election. The
season has been a bit backward
this spring owing to the unset.
tied condition of politics all over
the country and candidates have
not been as forward in announ-
cling as previously, but once the
game is opened look for Others
to follow and there seems to be
no danger but that there will be
enough candidates offer them

OUR COURTS

UTSb NOuuul III Jdhudi9s
What meaning do these words
suggest to you? Do you picture
crowded court room packed
with backwoodsmen being held
TO answer to charges of man
slaughter and murder? Does it
impress you as being a time
when the peace and quietude OF
our little town will be disturbed
by bootleggers and moonshiners
who Will peddle their wares at
night while Justice is being
dealt in the daytime? These
and many other impressions no
doubt dominated you in years
past when the sessions of court
were announced and they were
looked forward to as being I'M
pleasant duties that had to be
performed perforce. That IL
ancient history, so to speak, Ill
the County of Knox. No longer
/, murder, robbery aud attend
ant evils present in our county
in the mum bers formerly record.
ed. Seldom is there case of
bootlegging or moonshlnihg
heard of in the county, and t.
this was large number of the
crimes formerly perpertrated
accredited. This was one of the
roots of evil which has been de-
stroyed and this in a measure
accounts for a part of the good
behavior of our citizens. Our
courts are no longer prolonged
sessions of murder trials in
which bad men" are the princi-
pal characters. Our county is
almost model in this respect,
and we doubt II there is another
county in the State that can
boast the good record of her cit
liens as does the good county OF
Knox. Our courts have done
their duty and those who we're
evilly inclined have learned to
have a good wholesome fear Ct
the law. while those who under
ordinary circumstances wanted
to do the right thing by their
neighbors but who when they
took on a little too much Swim
key" stirred things up and made
it unpleasant for those around
them have had the temptation
removed from them and conse-
auently have perceived the Wis
dom in devoting their time to-
wards the betterment Of their
community and are better citi.
zens, living peaceably with
their families. We are proud
of our courts and our county Of
ficers and proud of our good citi-
zens, for it was by the cO-opera-
tion of the better men that the
violaters were brought TO justice
and dealt with IN manner that
showed that it was more proht-
able from every standpoint to-
obey the law. There was one
murder charge to be tried this
court and that resulted in an ac-
ouittal for the young man indict-
ed. Very few criminal cases
were on the Gorket and they
were not of lad nature, and no
other murder case.
Ever and anon we see COM
ment in our daily papers upon
the record of this or that court
which has sent up number of
men at it's recent term and they
are commended for their good
work. We are glad to see other
counties endsavoring to clean up
their communities and no doubt
il is a source Of qualification to
hear of county that has been
in the dangerous column for time
asst taking hold in earnest.
