WHILE PERFORMING DUTY

Silas S. Allen, a track-walker on
the I. c. railroad, was struck by a
train and instantly killed while in
the discharge of his duties Near
White Run. this county, last Thurs
day. There were no witnesses to
the fatal accident. Mr.. Allen left
his home in Horse Branch about

found that afternoon by Mr.. Tom
Hart, a flagman on local freight.

ford, was called and held an in
quest over the remains, but no par
ticulars could be obtained. He was
crushed through the chest, his left

curve in the road and it is supposed
he miscalculated the distance of the
train from him. From shoe prints
near the railroad ties. it is sup
posed he was STOPPING down, at
tempting to tighten bolt on a
rail, when he was struck.
The unfortunate man was a son
of Mr. Yes Allen, deceased, who
was well known in this county
some years ago. He was q nenf-
her of the Red Mems and Modern

To Uphold Their Nation
al Platform
in SUPPORT OF TARIFF BILL
Democrat Defends MOOserS
Against Representing a
Protection Party"
HE READS MOOSERS a LESSON

Washington, April 26.-An i'm
portant incident enIivened the de-
bate on the Underwood tariff bill
at to-day's session of the House of
Representatives.
Confronting Progressive men,
bers of the House with a plank in
the national platform of their party
pledging them to immediate revis-
ion of excessive tariff schedules"
without waiting for their proposed
nonpartisan tariff commission, Rep
resentative Lawrence b. Stringer, a
new Democrat from Illinois, called
upon the third party Representa-
tives in the House to support the
Underwood bill if they wished TO
carry out their party declarations.
First defending the Progressives
against onslaughts by both Demo-
Gratis and Republicans, and declar-
ing that they represented more than
100000 voters and had the right
to claim that their party was the
second great party in this nation, -
the Illinois Democrat emphatically
denied that they represented a
protection party"
You tell me that the Progressive
party favors nonpartisan tariff
commission" declared Mr.. Strin-
ger. That is true. but that plAnk
in the Progressive platform con-
cludes by saying, the work of the
commission should not prevent the
immediate adoption of acts reduc-
ing those schedules generally rec
ognized as excessive
Waving aloft the quotation and
addressing himself to Victor MUIR
dock, Progressive party leader in
the House, Mr.. Stringer continued
II call the attention of the gen.
tleman from Kansas to the state
ment that if he and the Progressive
members of this body whom he
leads desire to carry out the decla-
ration of their own platform. and |
believe they do, they will be COM
PEELED by the logic of those declara-
tons to join with us in the passage
of this pending measure.
That platform denounces the
Payne-Aldrich bill as unjust to the
people, the speaker continued
1T declares for an income tax. and
! say to the gentleman from Kan
sas, his conferees already have said
to us that if they fail to keep faith
with the people and fail to carry
out the pledges which they have
made. they will meet the condem.
nation which they deserve"

HIGHER COURT RULES ON
CARRYING OF LIQUOR

Frankfort, Ky, April 25.-Con-
STRUNG the "anti-bootlegger's act"
known as the Frost bill, passed in
1912, the Court of Appeals to-day
took a long step toward making
Kentucky dry State in fact, if not
in name.
The conviction of Isaac Pope, of
Leslie county, for carrying a bottle
of whiskey into local option terri
tory to accommodate Robert Wal
ker, was sustained. The opinion was
handed down by Judge Lassing, and
as a result of it's construction any
person or corporation carrying in
toxicating liquors into local option
territory, even for accommodation.
except common carriers to licensed
druggists, are liable to fine of
from $40 to 500 and from 10 days
to 30 days in Jail or both. The APP
pellate Court was unanimous in the
opinion handed down by Judge Las
sing.
Walker gave Pope 81 to buy a
quart of whiskey. 1t was agreed
that Pope got nothing for carrying
the whiskey, not even so much as a
drink of it.

" Board of Health.
MEANT FOR ALL THE PEOPLE
Intended to Be the Most Far
Reaching Health Effort
Ever Undertaken.
BETTER OBEY THAN SUFFER

Bowling Green KY, April 25, 1913
Be it known of all people that
the State Board of Health, in the
exercise of authority vested in it
by law, and because far more than
half the sickness and nearly half
the deaths of every year are from
preventable and filth diseases, here
by issues it's proclamation earnest
ly urging the authorities of every
county, city, town. school, corpora
ton and home to set apart Friday
end Saturday, May I'd and Sd.
A913, for the most comprehensive.
far-reaching, cleanup, lining and
whitewashing campaign ever un-
dertaken in Kentucky. 1t asks the
officials to arrange In advance for
teams to. haul off all garbage and
other refuse, and to provide proper
places for their disposal, that
householders, especially the wom-
en-, children and servants, cooper
ate in collecting the same, and that
teachers and students devote the
forenoon of Friday to cleaning up
rnd whitewashing the school prem
Uses, giving particular attention to
THE privies; and the Board makes
an especial appeal for this cleaning
up and whitewashing at every
country home in the State.
Swating one fly of every 1000
Matched is all right so far as it
goes, but it is far better and easier
to stop breeding them. Over 500
of flies are bred in horse manure,
in stables and their surroundings. 1t
takes 10 days for flies to hatch, and
if every barn and stable, public and
private, could be cleaned, the ma
nure scattered on the fields where
q. 1T is needed-and this could be re-
Apeated every Saturday-it would
practically end the fly business. The
Board appeals to the railroads and
other corporations to make their
premises model in every commune
ty, and 1t urges the distilleries and
owners of cattle pens, against
which much just complaint is being
made, to clean up and plough the
pens as soon as the cattle are re-
: moved, and then use not less than
25 barrels of fresh lime per acre
On such premises.
4 The Board appeals to the press.
mayors, Il Rchers, medical profess
sion, Women's Clubs and Civic
Leagues to cooperate with the au-
thorities and people in doing these
things. because 1t will save money,

best people on earth-the men,
