CAMPBELL JUSTIFIED.


An article appe n these columns
from Prestonsburg s.st week. in which
the writer unjustIy criticises County
superintendent M. F. Campbell of
Pikeville, for refusing to order the
building Of several small school houses
at various places in the county.
This is Mr.. Campbell's reason: II
was formerly the custom in this State
to split large school districts in two,
and to build as many small schools in
the county as possible, for the conven-
fence Of children in the rural districts.
But experience has proven this an UNI
wise idea, as stated by Prof. t. j.
Coates, OF Frankfort, who taught the
last Institute here in July. II is the
modern idea to consolidate schools and
school districts. This was fully dis
cussed In former article In this pa

a few moments the lives OF four men
were shot out while two were wounded,
The dead men are. Albert Hall. Marion
Hall, Talton Hall and Dug Quillen,
Lance Hall being the only man in the
battle who escaped. and he was seri-
ously wounded in the left arm at about
the first charge, Mrs Albert Hall,
who II is said. came to the rescue OF
her husband. received a wound In her
left foot, At last reports II was
thought that blood poisoning was de-
veloping and that the woman was
| likely to die OF the wound. Lance Hall

lining trial to be held within few

The terrible murder is deeply deplor-
ed by people throughout the county.

Selling Condemned Meat

One of the Portland papers re-
cites the instance of some indi-
vidual of Eastern Oregon who
has started the very lucrative
business from buying up all the
cattle affected with lumpy jaw,
(Actinomycosis Bowls, shipping
them to Portland markets and
getting a good fair price for
them. But when they were de-
livered at the stockyards they
were condemned for food and
were withdrawn from the mar
ket, sold to "scalpers, butcher
ed, and retailed to the people
or else sold to local butchers
and we have been eating them
probably. After the animals head
is cut off one unacquainted with
the disease would not suspect
the unsanitary condition of the
food. Perhaps it is not general
ly known that lumpy jaw is con-
tagious and may be transmitted
to human beings. Perhaps there
are those who do not know that
the germs of a disease like
lumpy jaw infect all parts of the
body of the subject to a greater
or less degree. A mice slice Of
steak" from the loin Of an ami
mai of this sort might taste all
right. if we did not know it was
diseased, but il might be danger
Gus food just the same. Should
the meat be imperfectly cooked
the living germs of lumpy jaw
would be transferred TO your body
and you would be lucky to escape
disease. Even IL il is well done
the excrements and poisons
thrown off by the germ colonies
and decaying parts contaminate
the entire animal and the food is
foul with impurities. Don't you
want peice for supper? The
men who will endanger the lives
of all who would use this meat
for food are little better than
murderers. A method of killing
by poisoning is no worse. Indeed
il is better. These men take the
chance of killing their fellow
men for profit. The ordinary
murderer poisons for less selfish
ends. And yet this is not an
exceptional instance. There
has been a gang of men of Port
land for the past five years, at
least, who have made a business
of buying up cows condemned
for tuberculosis. and selling
them butchered to unsuspecting
retailers. And sometimes the
retailers were not unaccquainted
with the facts. Beaver State
