Make 'eIll
All Want
TO See Us

A. l.. Sommers, new secretary
Of the Commercial club, told the
members council of that body at
noon Wednesday, that railroad
men of the east and middle west
are unanimous in saying that Ia
coma must go after the tourist
business.
They say we must exploit the
things we have, which simply are
not known by those who travel
for pleasure. We have the noun
tain and the Stadium and Point
Defiance, attractions which
should bring ourists here by
the thousands. But the tourists
do not come, because they don't
know what we have.
Sommers said his first efforts
will be to arouse interest in the
necessity of making the city at
tractive.
Attractive not only to tour
ists," he said, "but to laboring
men, to manufacturers, to mer-
chants, to every class of people,
because we want them all.
'Attractiveness' includes far
more than merely the outward
appearance of a city. 1t means all
that makes the city desire BILE
place to live in, invest in and
build up"
Tacoma looks good to me-"
said Sommers Wednesday morn-
ing, when he got down to his
desk. I've been away a /. ear and
a half and I'm glad to &c. back.

the illness which followed my ac-

nothing but their lives have only
words full of condemnation, full
of grief for friends or relatives
left behind dead. Mrs. Maude
Hoyt, who has just arrived here
from what was once her husbands
ranch south of Cananea, said to
me, with her children in a pa
thetic group around her:
MY husband had a we'll stock
ed ranch, but today there Is moth
ing left on it. Mexicans robbed
US of everything-horses, cattle,
clothes, money, but l suppose we
should be glad that we escaped
with our lives. In trying to get
out OF Mexico my husband was
separated from us and have not
heard from him since. We will
never go into Mexico again until
the Mexicans have been taught by
arms to respect the American flag
and the lives and property g of
Americans.
Ell Paso, the border, thinks
and speaks as these do.
El Paso believes 1t does the
nation honor to accept with glad
ness the function of being 1.-THE

Marie Louise Gilbert, in a di-

superior court, claims she is sick
and tired of being cursed and
abused by her husband, Fred H.
Gilbert, whom she married in
North Yakima in 1909.
She lays the blame to his alleg-

she says was the foundation for a
number of unjustifiable aecusa-
tions he made against her.

A SUFFICIENT ,NSwER.
The Frankfort State Journal.

As might have been expected, the
reply of Mrs Cora Wilson Stewart to
som- recent criticisms of the State Ill
iteracy Commission is complete and
convincing. Those who kno Mrs.
Stewart and who are familiar with the
great work she has been doing for pop
ular education in Kentucky have had
the utmost confidence in her ability to
refute every flimsy charge that was
made He statement. appearing in the
State Journal YESTERDAY, covers the
ground fully There is nothing else to
he said
1t is to be regretted that newspaper
Of the standing and character Of the
Courier-Journal should have dignified
such an aggregation of trivialities by
publication. The Courier Journal in
the past has been generous and con-
sistent in its support of the movement
against illiteracy. That it should have
been made the vehicle of a groundless
and uncalled-for attack ON the Com
mission in general and on Mrs. Stew
art in particular, is unfortunate : I'm
doubtedIy the paper and its legislative
representatives were imposed upon bS
some person or some interest inimical
: to the Commission or to its chairman.
The State journal confesses its in Ul-
ity to fathom the reasons for such en-
nifty.
Certainly 10 patriotic Kentuckian
should begrudge the pittance that has
been spent by the State in forwarding
the work of the Commission. AIRS.
Stewart has carried inls WORK along
under the most discouiaging circum-
stances. She ha labored early and late
with such resources as she could com-
mand, and, considering the obstacles
She has had To overcome, the move
ment has been remarkably successful.
Ii is an enterprise of vast and far
reaching Importance to Kentucky
Its possibilities are not to be measured
in dollars and cents, for its complete
success would be of value past all cal
culation. The States money could
not possibly be spent to better purpose
Mrs. Stewart is the head and front
the soul and body, as IT were, OF the
movement. She has made it vital
organization by working day and night
To build it up-and she has done SO at
a sacrifice of her time and means. If
she bad been mere seeker of person
81 gain she could have carried her
propaganda outside OF Kentucky and
made dollars ont of il where she hasn't
made cents. From a financial stand
point she could have protited persun-
ally by leaving Kentucky before the
moonlight school movement got out
side of Rowan county, for she had
ample opportunity to engage in educa-
tional work in other States at larger
compensation than she ever has re-
ceived in Kentucky or is likely TO re-
ceive. These are facts which are in
disputable, and they are good and
sufficient answer to every charge and
every insinuation that may be inspired
or circulated. through enmity, envy or
ignorance, to her detriment.
