WHAT BOURBON COUNTY RED
CROSS HAS DONE.

Since the women of Bourbon coun-
ty organized and so successfully carri-
ed forward the work Of the Red Cross
in this city and county, they have
made a notable record, one that will
stand out as a most unselfish con-
tributor of personal efforts in the an
mails of the county.
The Bourbon County Chapter, with
the sole exception of Millersburg. has
completed the following articles,
which were packed and shipped last
week to the Good Samaritan Base
Hospital Unit No. 40, organized at
Lexington, by DR.. Barrow:
Five hundred sheets; 420 draw
sheets; 480 pillow cases; $50 towels;
So dish towels; 1913 Turkish towels;
420 napkins; 1873 tray covers; 100
wash cloths; "a dozen bed gowns:
IA dozen pajamas.
When the history of this great war.
or Americas part in 1t, rather, IL
compiled there will stand out in bold
relief, like letters of white on a
background of black, the magnifi-
cent work of the women of America.
And no where in all this broad land
was service more cheerfully given or
hours more cheerfully spent than by
the women of the Bourbon County
Chapter of the American Red Cross,
irrespective of social station or relig-
ious denomination. All honor to
Bourbon's "ansels of mercy"

the day of election was if I was
elected, would strive to make Paris
a larger and better city.
With this end in view, I ask the
cooperation of every good citizen Of
Paris.
Respectfully and gratefully,
E. B. JANUARY.

RECKLESS PISTOL USER HELD TO
GRAND JURY.

Because of his reckless use OF re-
volver, Jack Webster, colored, OF
Paris. languishes in the Paris Jail in
default of the necessary bail to secure
his liberty.
Webster, incensed because Conduc-
tor Anderson elected him from an IN
coming interurban car at Nineteenth
street last Sunday for refusing 10
produce his fare, fired five shots
through the car, one grazing the
Conductors collar. Anderson gave
chase and captured the reckless pistol
user. On his examining trial before
Judge January, Webster was held
over to the grand jury at the next
term of the Bourbon Circuit Court.

VOLUME XXXVII
DRAFTED MEN TO BE EXAMINED
TOMORROW MORNING.

The work of mailing out notifica
ton cards to the men who will be

pleted the men are expected to call at

ment DR.. Silas Evans, the medical

RESOLUTION PUT ON THE
SHELF TILL DECEMBER

National prohibition by constitu-
tional amendment was hung up In
the house, Thursday, by the prohib1-

The resolution to submit the pro.
posal to the States, passed by the
Senate, was put out of the program
for the present session and will not
come up until the regular session in
December.
Plans to reconvene the Democratic
caucus and reverse its decision to
consider only war legislation were
abandoned because it was believed
delaying action until next session
will help the prohibition cause:

The primary election which was
brought to an end in this county
with the close of the polls at four
o'clock Saturday afternoon marked
the end of one of the hardest-fought
contests in the history of local pol
itics, and in the language of four
fifths of the population, we're glad
it's all over"
The election was very quiet one,
in spite of the apparent tension un-
der which many of the candidates
and their workers at the polls were
laboring. No disorders beyond a
slight argument between one of the
candidates and an opposition worker,
occurred to mar the day. Each side
had Woodworking organizations in
the field who used every legitimate
means known to politics to push the
interests of their candidates, and the
vote was undoubtedly reflection OF
the sentiment of the people OF the
city and county in regard to the
control of it's offices. The tabulation
of the vote showed many surprises
and prediction predictions and
prophecies were set utterly at naught
by the reversal of form shown by
some of the candidates who were
picked by the wise ones as sure
things"
Sundays and Mondays echoes OF
the election showed everybody appar-
entity satisfied with the result of the
work of the election machinery.
While to some persons, naturally, the
results were not pleasing, to all they
were convincing, as the day-after
showed. The indications are that
there will be no contests and that the
election ran so smoothly that there
will be no squibbling over the early
decisions. The majority of the races
were settled by decisive majorities,
and it is not believed that later cal
culations will make any material
changes in the figures shown in the
election table published in this issue
of THE NEWS.
| The decisive Democratic vote In
the city and county has cast shad-
ow over the possible advent OF an IN
dependent ticket in the field, as was
limited Sunday. The vote seems TO
show that the party is we'll together,
and that there will be absolutely no
disgruntled Democrats after the cleo
ton.
The results were known early,
and everybody praised the work OF
the officials who conducted the cleo
ton. and praised the speed with
which the returns were made up and
sent in. The election figures had
been practically completed by seven
o'clock Saturday night, which made
record for fast work with a Dig
vote to tabulate. The work was also
as thorough as it was speedy.
The new primary law, tested OUT
here for the first time, met with gen
eral favor. The time saved by hav-
ling the names of candidates having
no opposition not appear on the bal
lot was one of the big factors in get
ting the returns in early. Reports
; show that there was an unusually
small number of contested or chal'
llenged votes at the booths.
Now that it is all over THE
. NEWS urges united and hearty sup
, mort to the nominees and pledges it:
support as a newspaper to the sue
lcessful candidates. Let's have M

German Officials Are Now Assuming the Entire
 Direction of the
 Turk Fighters.
.MUTINY IS EVERYWHERE
Vigorous Methods Being Used When Trouble Breaks Out Among
 the Soldiers.

LONDON, March 1.-Complete con. trol of the Turkish army, says a Daily Chronicle informant, has been assumed by the Germans. All the highest and the higher commands are filled with Germans; also the ad- ministration of national affairs is in German hands, with the result that there IS a perfect inundation of Ger man officials everywhere. The Turk. ish military have absolutely no voice in directing their affairs, the Ger man feldwebel, or sergeant having a higher power than Turkish cap. tain
 The Turkish soldiers are kept in order only by vigorous. vicious, and constant corporal punishment for any and every alleged offense.
 There is an unceasing demand on the part of the Germans for Turk. ish achievements to i'll the gaps from losses in army divisions where. ever the Turks are serving. These demands always create resentment and anger in Turkish military cir cles, where the view is strongly held that Turkey should primarily oc. cupy herself with the affairs of Asia.

G0NVOYING WILL
 NOT PROVE SAFE
 OR SANE ACTION
Berlin Navy Man Gives His Opinion That the Method 0utWeighed
 by Responsibility.

AMSTERDAM, March l. - Rear Admiral Ka'au von Holf of the Ger man navy says that from purely a nautical standpoint too much can. not be said against conveying. Much time would be lost. he said, in gath ering ships at the point of common departure. On the voyage the whole conveyed fleet must reduce it's speed to that of the slowest boat, other wise it would be scattered along the route, and protection would be af- forded to but few of the vessels.
 The security guaranteed by con voy is often outweighed by the im- possibility of utilizing to the full ex- tent the carrying capacity of the fastest steamships, which are com pelled to regard the safety of the slower ones.
