The Kentuckian is a new pa.
per just started at Jackson, KY,
in opposition to Beckham's can
didacy for United States Sen

every body in this neck of the

What if he should? There are

The State Journal pays a nice
compliment to Attorney Gener-
al Garrett under the head-A
good day for Kentucky. 1.-The
Commonwealth of Kentucky had
a field day" in the Supreme
Court of the United States Mon
day, when it won two cases, in
volving questions of Importance
to the people-a rate case and a
tax suit. Attorney General Gar
nett, who argued the Greenbriar
freight rate case and the United
States Fidelity and Guaranty
case before the Supreme Court
has right to feel complaisant
over his achievement in behalf
of the State. While the Court
again declined to pass upon the
constitutionality of the McChord
bill in the former, it by implica-
ton seems to have said that it
has no Jurisdiction and that the
matter of making interstate rates
belongs exclusively to the State,
which is satisfactory as anything
could be to the State Railroad
Commission and the people of
Kentucky. The United States FL
deity and Guaranty Company is a
foreign corporation, which makes
reports on the commercial rating
of business houses the country
over. Itresisteda tax in this State
but the Supreme Court held that
it would have to submit and thus
laid down the doctrine that such
foreign corporations doing bus
mess in Kentucky must contrib
ute to the States revenues. 1t
was a good days work for Ken
lucky, which was ably represent
ed in the legal battles against
the best talent the resources of a
great railroad system and a big
Eastern corporation could hire.

Editor News
With your permission for a
small space in your paper will
say that every edition of the
News mentioning many names
once familiar to me, makes me
homesick for sight of old Ken
lucky, though it has been many
years since l left there. can
not forget the glorious times /
spent during my boyhood days
rollicking over hills and valleys
of old Adair county, though from
my third to my eighth year, near
Montp elier, Russell county.
When twenty years old, left old
Kentucky for the West, and have
lived in Iowa. Missouri, Colorado
and lastly in California. Was in
San Francisco a number of years
prior to the big earthquake and
fire of 1906, which burned five
square miles of the business Sec
ton of the city. 1t was an expe-
rience l never want to go
through again. Then came to
this little city, which is just nine
miles northeast of San Francisco,
and across the bay of the latter
name. Our town is just thirteen
years old with a POPULATION of
twenty thousand people. We
have two trans continental rail-
roads, and one local, also the ter
minal of the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fee railroad with big shops
and round houses located here.
About one hundred and twenty
five trains per day enter our lit
tie city of factories, the largest
of which is the Standard Oil Com
pany, with plant costing over
ten million dollars and employing
over two thousand men. The
climate is mild here-only eight
degrees colder in winter than
summer, and rains only during
late fall and winter. Vegetables
and strawberries all the year.
There are quite a number of
Kentuckians living here, and
there are people from every coun-
try in the world. ran across a
negro from Kentucky, and asked
him did he like possum and sweet
potatoes? He said; go way
child and don't talk about them
good things to eat, 1t makes me

On another page in the issue,
a call for a meeting of the cit
liens of Columbia and Adair
county will be seen. The pur-
pose is fully set forth in said
call, and we trust that the court
house will he crowded with de-
termined men who will neither
flicker nor falter until this move
ment is crowned With success.
Already Columbia is the best in
land town in the State, but with
moderate facilities for shipping,
her growth in population and
business would soon out rival any
town in South Central Kentucky.
Within two or three years after
securing railroad service, her
population would double, her
business qua1ruple and values
materially increase in every part
of the county. We are within
twenty miles of a great railroad
system with but little natural OBJ
struction in the way, not even
necessity for a deep cut or other
expensive work before track lay
ing, and yet, for years, this
county has poured its resources
into to the trade of another town,
slept for a half century within
the reach of reasonable effort to
develop its own resources
losing tremendously every year
and doing without many of the
conveniences of life. Land val
ues are held down to the lowest
price. Old methods still prevail.
With no enterprise or opportuni-
ty to create new business or to
enlarge present operation S
thousands of citizens of vim and
vigor have gone to other Sec
tions and made good. This con-
dition would be changed by Sc
curing a railroad, and it is i'm.
material where we connect or
what line of road that receives
our business. The important
point is connection. 1t is not SO
much competition we need, as
facilities to get out and in, to
and from the centers of trade
and markets. AS we see it the
I. & n, is in as good position to
give the service so badly needed,
as any other road. 1t is within
twenty miles of our town and
could be built to this place for
one-fourth what it would cost
any other line of road, besides
it would give just as profitable
service, as good passage and as
low rates as any other road.
Let us all meet next Wednesday
evening and get together on some
plan, and if the bulk of our cit.
liens will unite, some way can be
worked out that will bring &
road. 1t is up to this commune
ty to save itself from industrial
decay, and the sooner we realize
this the sooner we should gel
busy and cast it off.

1t had been nearly four years
since we left Kentucky, there
fore | was anxious to make a
visit. So on August the 18th, in
company with my old friend,
Gwin Stone of Hale, Mo-, we
started for the Columbia Fair.
When we arrived in Louisville l
began to look for people that l
knew. In Lebanon ] met a few
of the Adair and Green county
boys. When we left for Camp
bellsville there were three chill
dren who took seats opposite me.
They looked so pleasing l had to
ask who they were, and they
said they were Will Lyons chill
dren, of Campbellseille-Pend-
ence, James and William. They
all have the Pleasant smiles of
their father and mother both.
They had a nice basket of fruit
they had brought from their
grandpa Yates, which they d.
vided with US. In Campbellsville
we met quite a few acquaint-
ances, and when we reached Co.
lumbia, we were greeted by a
number of friends and relatives,
Charlie Browning being one of
the number, who conveyed US to
his home. There we were met
by my brother. in-law, Mr.. Ebb
Salmon and FIRMLY, and my old

PROTECTION A FRAUD, TAR
IFF BARONS ADMIT

Secretary of Commerce Redfeld has
created quite stir among protected man
ufacturers. He has announced that il
any of them try to reduce wages and put
the blame on reduction of tariff graft, an
investigation will be made by his depart,
ment which will compel them either to
prove the correctness of such a statement
or convict themselves of deliberate false
hood. Knowing that the latter result
will be the more probable one, a loud
protest has arisen.
Manufacturers and the news
paper organs of protection are
telling Secretary RedfieId that an
employers business is his own and
that the government has no right
to investigate his management
of 1t.
They forget that if an employers busi-
ness is his own that the government has
no right to tax persons for its support
who have no proprietary interest in it..
This the government has done for years.
The protective tariff has been levied to
COMPEL all within the United States to
contribute to the support of certain pri-
vately owned industries. Not only have
the proprietors of these industries failed
to object to this policy, but most of them
have strongly urged its continuance.
Is 1t true that the people who
contribute to the subsidies for
these factories have no right to a
voice in their management May
they not investigate to ascertain
whether the large sums they paid
were actually used for the purpose
for which they were given! If not
then the charge that protection is
a fraud and a robbery is admitted
by its own friends.

CLASSIFICATION WITH
A LIMIT

Governor Cox has come out in favor
of the classification of property for the
purposes of taxation. He told a delega-
ton of business men from Cleveland and
Cincinnati, that he would aid them in
their efforts to secure the adoption of an
amendment to the constitution providing
for the classification of property, but he
wants it to contain limitation. The gov
ernor frankly said ''the present uniform
rule system is not modern" " The amend
ment which will be proposed by initiative
this fall will follow closely the one sub
mitted in 1908, which failed of ratiica-
ton because it did not receive majority
of all the votes cast at the election. How
ever; the vote cast upon the amendment
showed an overwhelming public senti-
ment i'll favor of the proposition. The
vote on the amendment in 1908 was 800,
900 for and 95, 900 against. This year it
need receive only majority of the votes
cast upon the subject. The 1908 amend
ment provided for the exemption from
taxation of public bonds Similar ex-
emption is provided in an amendment to
be voted upon this fall.
There appears to be no question that it
will carry overwhelmingly for the reason
that cities and counties have been unable
to sell improvement bonds of any kind
for many months because the constitu-
ton made them taxable.

SANDLES ON AGRICULTURAL
COMMISSION BILLS

A. P. Sandles, secretary of the stat
board of agriculture, who has done NOR
for the farmers of Ohio than the com
bined lot OF false leaders circulating peti
tions for referendum on the law, ha
the Cunningham state agricul
tural commission bill, as follows:
"Ohio agricultural work is not con-
centrated. Ohio agricultural activi-
ties annually cost over a half-million
dollars. This vast expenditure of
public funds is now peddled out by
half dozen departments, more or
less in discord. A thousand persons
more or less in discord, are on the
pay roll.
"Ohio agriculture has been more
or less a political foot ball and a door
mat for politicians. It was never
united or unified.
Governor Cox demands that Ohio
agriculture be given a new birth and
equal standing with other state de-
partments. He proposes to exalt
the calling of the farmer. He wants
harmony instead of discord among
those who are to be its officers. He
insists on concentration of effort, in
stead of duplication and triplication
of time and money. He believes
that the army of agricultural en-
ployees can accomplish more at less
expense, if working under one auth
ority, more than than they possibly
can by working at cross purposes
under numerous heads and boards.
The manager of any successful bust
ness enterprise would agree with
him.
From this point of view Cover
nor Cox considered the state agricul-
tural bill an urgent necessity of the
day."

pal aud school bonds. The amendment
was adopted
But little more than nine months have
passed since the constitutional election,
and less than six months since the taxa
tion amendment took effect yet definite
movements have been started to alter the
provision in both these respects, Both
will probably be brought before the peo-
pie for review
AS was clearly foreseen, the provisions
for taxing city bonds has had practically
no other effect than to make these bonds
at their old rate of interest virtually a
drug on the market; in the long run, it
would be tremendous handicap in
financing local improvements, Public
officials everywhere in the state are ready
to lend their influence to have stricken
from the constitution so unwise man
date.
In two places the constitutional dele
gates emphasized their hostility to prop
