CoCIRNI.G Jul &C BUSH

No question nov exists that the
Courier-Journal never talked to
Judge Bush. tina; fe never made the
statements ascribed TO him and that
he and the Courier-Journal. for some
reason unexplained. were made the
dual victims Of Improvisation which
has given rise to much misapprehen-
sion and unjust reflection on Judge
Bush's character and courage
by this newspaper and by many 9TH
or journals and citizens. II was stated
in the alleged interview with Judge
Bush. in the CourierJourusl Of jan
uary I2, 1917. that he stated 'he was
compelled Ito issue an order Of re-
turn for Martini to save his own life.
that the mob had threatened to blow
him Up IL he did not comply with their
request" Had Judge Bush made this
/ tatemeut &c would have merited what
the Courier-Journal said about him.
But II is now proved TO the salts
faction OF this newspaper that these
words were put into his mouth by
his imperonator. In the interV1e"
Judge Bush was further made to
saw. when asked whether he did not
consider Murray unsafe for the ne
gro: 1T would have been unsafe
for me il I had refused to issue the
order for his return" These also
were the words Of the impersonAtor
and never came from Judge Bush.
In the Courier-Journal editorial
Comment il was stated that Judge
Bush issued an order from his hotel
setting the negro's trial for the first
week in January. IL has since de-
yeloped that this statement was IN
correct. that Judge Bush did 90 to
the courthouse and in open court
announced that he would call spe-
cial term Of court for the trial OF
Martin in February. Judge Bush
has explained this action by saying
that Is was not only dangerous to
himself but 10 other innocent par
ties II Martin was not brought back
20 Murray and that the kinsmen OF
Duixuid. whom Martin killed, and
other good citizens appeared to him
TO have the negro returned, that
the Commonwealth Attorney, fully
conversant with affairs, consented e
the order Judge Bush adds that
at first he refused to issue the order
after considerable parley with th'
best element Of the county, the dead
man friends and the Commonwealth
Attorney. he decided il was the wis
dom Of the situation. That explana
ton, and how il shall be weighed
rests between the Judge and his con
stitueney.

II Is suggested that Red Cross

are much larger and more heavily

attitude toward the Chancellor.
The Allies should forthwith declare,
the newspaper says, that Maximilian's
Government is disqualified for negotia-
tons because 1t clearly has not gained
mastery over the militarists while these
atrocities continue.
