FIGHTING THE NEWSPAPERS

There are a number of small men
in congress who embrace every OPP
portunity to show their antipathy to
the newspapers, because of some
real or fancied grievance, Some of
these, notably, Fordney, of Michigan
and the unspeakable Senator Stone,
of Missouri, would permit the papers
to publish only neighborhood gossip
and a few personals, if they could
enforce such rule and they would
in addition tax them to the limit.
These men never fail to assert that
the newspapers are responsible for
the war, which of course is false
hood out of the whole cloth, and to
make other insinuations generally
that they would not dare toS make
specifically. There is no good rea-
son to put 2 per cent. tax on ad-
vertising. In fact it is downright in
gratitude and injustice, considering
how much of their space is given the
government freely and gratuitously.
But for this liberality, the Liberty
loan, for instance would have been
a failure and rot half of the people
would have been appraised of the reg
istration for CONSUMPTION. No other
agency does so much without remun-
Grafton for the government, which
would be disposed to the utmost lib
crafty with the press but for the
fact that there are men in congress
helping to make laws who are unwor-
thy of power and who ought to be
at work in corn field, with an over
seer welding the whip.

The Kentucky Press Associations
meet at The Seelbach, Louisville,
was one Of the most delightful and
at the same time most important in
the history of the association. A
great deal of work of Importance
came before the body and was dis
posed of. The city of Louisville did
herself proud in the entertainment
of the press gang, one of the most
interesting features of which was
the trip through the manufacturing
center of the Falls City. Many of
the paper men were surprised to sec
that Louisville is such manufacture
ing city and to learn that most ev-
erything imaginable could justly
wear the "Made in Louisville" mark.
The work of the association was COM
pleted yesterday and today the quill
drivers are vending their way home
ward with the most pleasant men,
cries of Louisville and her hospitable
people. The officers elected for the
ensuing year are: Robert j. Nc
Bride, presidents; Col Woodson May,
vice-president; B. f. Forgy, Ashland,
chairman of executive committee.
and j. c. Alcock, Jeffersontown, sec

men who think thew should rule the
