FOOTBALL
Normal Beats AssIes- --sists Championship
Game TonscrfcW.

Although severely handicapped in
weight and bach field speed the
River Falls Eornsl defeated the
Minnesota "Aggies.' here last Fri.
day by score Of II ~ IL. 1t was
an uphill fghs for the Pedagogues
all the way thrc17ea, and mighty
hard going a. IL 4. he Aggies
scored first, ard xcceared to do 1t
easily. In the second quarter a
penalty ard fuElb.o gave them the
ball in Normal territory and an end
run scored them another touchdown
The punt out was caught on the
fve-yaId line and tno Aggie captain
forgo, that be might take it out
further for the ntre-lpt at goal, and
SO neither touchd1z was followed
by goal.
In the third qu4r = Nelson made
a beautiful pass to Richards, who
carried three Agile with him from
the 40-yard line t. the goal. Keith
kicked goal. II tn fourth quarter
Keith made 20-ya1d pass to Rich
ards, wac carried tae ball IS yards.
This time, also, he n@s clawed and
picked at by three ggies along the
entire route, and, while they didn't
down him, they finally did force
him out of bounds on the 5-yard
line. Here the visitors held for
three downs, and it Looked as though
the locals could no score. But a
short forward pass, Keith to Daw-
son, over the goal ne, turned the
trick. Keith again licked goal. The
Aggies came back IN a desperate
attempt to regain thH lead but Nor.
NAL held them back and the game
ended with the bali IL Normal terri
tory about thirty y>rds from the
goal.
The playing of Dawson was by
far the most brilliant feature of the
game. He was the star of Normal's
defense, breaking through n d
spelling play after play, and his
nice catch OF Keilhss pass while
surrounded by his opponents won
the game.

Despite wind and weather a good
house turned out Monday night to
hear the John Howard Concert COM
pany Those who came were not
disappointed, for the concert was
up to the usual standard of these
people. Mr. Howard has a company
that can. fit in we'll in the lecture
course of any city. The work of

favorably with that of any who
have appeared before the public in

the better record milwaukee is the

of judging the relative strength of
Whitewater opponents with those

A FoREWoRD.

In line with a custom which hes
been adopted in recent years by q
large majority of the weekly newspa
pers of Central Kentucky, the Bour
bon News will take no part, edito
rally or personally, in the coming
local option campaign, and will re
main absolutely neutral This does
not imply that our privilege of voting
our convictions will be in any way
abridged or curtailed
The columns of this paper will be
open, as a purely business PROPOSE
ton, to the paid contributions from
either side of this muchly-vexed ques
ton, at our regular space rates, and
treated as any other advertising mat
ter. This plan has been adopted by
the leading papers of the State, and is
matter of simple justice to the ed
itor, the publisher, and to the adher
ents of either side of the liquor ques
ton. No one can conscientiously
question the sincerity of the news
paper publisher in this respect.
Our columns are now crowded with
advertising of local and foreign mer
chants, and with the re-opening OF
the fall trade, and the usual run OF
local news matter, both city and
county happenings, it will be appar
ent at glance to the fair-minded
man or woman, that to give free ser
vice to either the "drys" or the
"wets" would not only make serious
inroads on our limited space, but be
the means Of financial loss.
The News, as before stated. will re
main absolutely neutral in the coming
campaign, and repeats the above an
nouncement, i. e., all communications
must be paid for at space rates
The newspapers space is the pub
fishers stock in trade, as recognized
by numerous court decisions, and il
is his main source of revenue against
that awful day when "the ghost" has
TO appear and mauerialize for the
benefit of the working force and their
families.
We could cite scores of weekly pa
pers in Kentucky that have adopted
this practice, and none of them have
lost prestige or friends among their
fair-minded readers and patrons The
Louisville papers adopted the same
plan during the recent Senatorial and
Congressional primary campaign, and
they are still in business and prosper
ing. The Lexington Leader is using
this plan in the local option cam
paign in Lexington and Feyette coun
ty. So are other papers throughout
the district. So will The News.
We have been interviewed by rep
resentatives of both sides regarding
the advertising features of the cam
paign, but have not accepted from
either, reserving the right to accept
