A ROUND UP NECESSARY.

Of course we all know that there all kinds of peoples in the world But why is t when coun- try cets into trouble the oTniriest kinds who are ret without being known to the average citizens, gre not locked up, shackled gagged or something They are enemies of any country, and the more trouble a country is into the orniriest they be- come. Look at Russia today She has her hand full with the war abroad; yet there is a class of men who are not satisfied but are making war at home. Look at our country.
 When the government decided to go to wal with Germany the first thing that was done was to take the enemys boats and lock up the crews The declaration of intention to defend our rights made of those peoples our enemies. But nc more 90 than the kind the federal authorities are alTestng all over the country at the present time for circulating seditious literature. As mat ter of common sense, they were less enemies of OUT country than some of our citizens at liberty. We may say what we like about Germany, but that country leads the world even in silencing her ornry kinds of citizens. When the war was declared she soon put stop to the trouble breed- CTS at home by executing few, and we were mortified. But Germany knew what was good for the country; which is peace at home first. Her example along that line should be followed. Not until then shar we have peace at home which is the very essence for our success abroad.

 About fifteen years proved to be close prophesy the kaiser started his planned cvili 2aon and democracy within fifteen years and fifteen months after the German admiral uttered his predict ion of Americas greatest naval heroes
 The radesman has long had in it's possession series written by the different members of the German general staff describing how each would proceed to subjugate America. All of the books addressed to the kaiser and explicitly that they written tle kaiser's request.

KETCHikAN LEADS

We cannot be accused of talking through our hat when we say that Ketchikan leads all the towns in Alaska in patriotic organizations From our military organization down to our gard ening. With nearly six hundred members of the Red Cross, large organization of Boy Scouts, lib- erty bonds purchases. everybody is contributing his bit to the country The reason for this is not far fetched. The citizens of Ketchikan, a whole. are exceptionally broad minded. They love their country and they have no time for the disgruntled. The liclers find no pleasant haven in their midst and they soon discover a united community bent or helping the country in time of need.

THE MAN FOR THE PLACE.

According to yesterdays news from Wash ington, J. M. Tanners nomination tor United States Marshal for this Division was confir1ris ga by the senate. From that the "lickers" were disappointed; but from what we have been able to learn, Tanner is THE one man in the right place among all the placed Democrats. Of course he may prove himself otherwise. Any how, we can rely on his fairness to enforce the laws and that regardless where it shall strike

ALLIE JONES IS PLEASED.

Mr. Allie Jones, of North Middle
town, is much pleased with suckl
ing colt by Bourbon King, out of
Margaret Messenger, by Chester
Dare, and expects to show him this
fall at the Kentucky State Fair.
The colt is full brother to a num-
Der of prize winners that Mr.. Jones
has shown the past two or three
years, of which the best is Beau
champ. Beauchamp is now four
years old, and has been a good win
ner for the past two seasons. He was
shown last fall at the international
Horse Show at Chicago, where he was
one of the most admired horses
The new Jones colt is a chestnut in
color, which color has predominated
among the produce of Margaret-Weis-
senger. This mare was a winner at
the ST. Louis Exposition, at which
time she was two years old. The
cross of Bourbon King on Chester
mares has been good one, despite
the fact that not many of Chester
Dare mares have been stinted to
him.

PETITIONS TO BE PUT OUT FOR
EARLY CLOSING.

THE NEWS was informed yester-
day that committees representing the
clerks and other employees of Paris
business houses will present petitions
to the merchants this week, for their
signatures favoring the early closing
movement, which was forecasted in
Fridays issue of THE NEWS.
Several petitions are being prepar-
ed, and the entire city will be divided
into districts, which will be thor
oughly canvassed by the committees
who will present the claims of the
workers.
THE NEWS is in hearty sympathy
with the movement for early closing
during the heated term, and sincerely
hopes it will be successful in all its
details. Early closing will work no
serious damage to anyone, but will
awake the lazy and Indifferent shop
per to the fact that even clerks and
employees have souls and longings for
a little rest and recreation.

Co., and e. F. Spears & Sons opened
the local market Saturday by pay

delivery for milling purposes.
The quality of the yield this sea-

the yield considerably above that of
last season. The milling concerns
will begin receiving their purchases
as soon as the work of harvesting is
completed. Harvesting in the coun-
ty has been proceeding rapidly un-
der favorable weather, and will sooa

BOURBON CAPITALISTS SECURE
BIG OIL LANDS.

Paris and North Middletown cap
italists representing a large portion
of the wealth of both cities, have
closed deal for leasing the oil and
mineral rights on all the land lying
on both sides of the Plum Lick pike
from North Middletown to and
across the Montgomery county line.
The deal was engineered so quietly
that none outside of the interested
parties knew of it until Saturday
night, when the. final action was
taken.
The lands under lease lie IN . very
promising territory, q part Of which
had been partly developed, or at least
the initial wells driven. One well on
the property of the Henry 8. Cay
wood farm was driven down over lve
hundred feet, when the drill broke.
The drillers informed the owners OF
the property that they believed the
drill had penetrated the oil and gas
producing sands. All efforts to ex-
tract the drill proved unavailing and
financiers refusing to furnish further
aid, the well was left undeveloped.
tbs well will be reopened, and new
prospecting 'holes" sunk in the same
territory, where good Indications OF
oil have been discovered. The peo-
pie back of thedeal say 1t is no wild
eating" scheme, but a plain bust
ness proposition which will be put
through on a solid financial basis.
