General Manager Stevens and STAFF
Are Removed to Richmond Head
quarters-Vain Protests by
Cincinnati Men.

In spite of strong opposition from
the Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce,
the Coal Exchange and other civic
and industrial bodies of the Queen
City, the Chesapeake & Ohio offices in
the Union Central building will be
closed this week and moved to head
quarters at Richmond. The Chesa-
peake & Ohio is the largest feeder of
coal in the Cincinnati territory, and
the loss of the offices was protested
mainly on that account
Among those affected by the change
are General Manager ]. p. Stevens,
Superintendent OF Freight Transport
tation; F. L. Poindexter, General
Agent R. L. Abbil and Chief Clerk o.
P. Carter.
General Manager Stevens upon his
return to Cincinnati from the inspec-
ton trip last week, reported the sys-
tenn to be in fine condition, notwith-
standing adverse war conditions. He
was especially pleased with the move
ment of coal The total loadings for
the week were 1861 cars, the best
weeks record for the system.

Many Maysyille People in Poor Health

that may be the root of the trouble
Look to your kidneys, assist them in
their work-give them the help they

recommended remedy than Doan's
Kidney Pills-endorsed by people all

KENTUCKY BILL IN DOUBT

Frankfort, Ky.-The bill passed by
the last Legislature redistricting Ken
lucky into 100 legislative districts
may be invalid. The Tenth Ward in
Louisville was omitted from the en-
rolled bill and Inconsistencies are re-
ported with reference to the districts
in which the Eleventh and Tewlfth
Wards in Louisville are located.
The enrolled bill provides that the
Thirty-sixth Precinct of the Eleventh
Ward and Thirty-second to the Forty
third, inclusive, of the Twelfth Ward
shall be part of the Fifty-flrst Dis
trict 1t provides that the Fifty-sev-
enth District shall comprise all of the
Eleventh Ward, EXCEPT the Thirty-sec-
ond to the Forty-third Precinct, inclu-
sive, of the Twelfth Ward, and that
the Fifty-eighth District shall en-
brace all of the Eleventh and Twelfth
Wards.
The question is, will the Court read
into the Fifty-eighth District the
Tenth Ward instead of the Eleventh
and Twelfth Wards.
The bill was introduced in the
House of Representatives by Thomas
Suprrier. of Canneyville, who recently
was appointed by the State Tax Com
mission to work for the commission
in the automobile department.

MISS CURTICE'S WORK
IS APPRECIATED
Children Learned to Love the Junior
Chautauqua Leader Who Accom-
plished Much Among Them
During Week.

Miss Adabelle Courtice, who has
been the Junior Leader during the
Maysville Chautauqua just closed, de-
serves the thanks of the mothers and
fathers of this community for the
splendid manner in which she han
died the Junior Chautauqua. Miss
Courtice put in a weeks very hard
work in training the youngsters and
in giving them frst-class entertain
ment.
The Pageant on Thursday night dis
played through the children taking
part Miss Courtice's wonderful abil-
ity at handling the young and in
teaching them.
All of the children during the week
learned to love her and they were
very, very sorry to see her leave.
The work among the children, how
ever, received the attention of sever
al local women who deserve much
credit for the accomplishments as
shown in the Fourth of July Pageant.
Maysville has never had a Chautau-
qua during which the boys and girls
have more enjoyed themselves and a
Chautauqua never closed leaving
more with the youngsters of the COM
munity than that which closed yes
terday.

THE STATE BOARD OF
HEALTH STILL EXISTS
Statement Refuting That Kentucky is
without Board of Health.


Below will be found a statement in
answer to one recently made by DR..
Heller, and bearing on the Board of
Health controversy 1t is signed by
Drs. John G. South, w. W. Richmond,
I. A. Shirley and j. N. Mccormack,
and is as follows:
"The statement which has appear
ed in some Louisville paper that Ken
lucky is without State Board of
Health is wholly without foundation.
For great many years, Kentucky
has had and now has a State Board
of Health which has performed, and
is today performing, all of its func-
lions. The suit instituted by DR..
South and his associates on that
board to prevent interference by DR..
Heller and his associates claiming to
constitute a State Board ofo Health
not only does not interfere with the
performance of the duties imposed
upon the board, but enables the board
to perform its duties without inter
ference The State Board of Health
and all it's employees are actively en-
gagged in the performance of all du-
ties and responsibilities imposed by
law upon them, having loyalty and
| unanimously agreed to continue their
service as long as needed. If the
defendants have in fact ordered mail,
kilograms and telephone calls for the
States Board of Health to be delivered
to them, they have violated the re-
straining order entered by the Frank
lin Circuit Court, and are in contempt
of court.
"Refore the law, under voil Sec
ton of which they claim to hold, of.
fee, became operative an agreement
was entered into between the lega
representatives of the plaintiffs ar
of the defendants that test sui
should be instituted and tried out be
fore the effective date of the law
When this suit was prepared, DR.
Heller and his associates declined t.
carry out the agreement, the purpos,
of which was to avoid any inconven
fence in the administration of tn,
law. AS a result, however, of the re
straining order entered by the Frank
lin Circuit Court, the health laws o
the State of Kentucky can and will
be enforced without interference, ant
the life and health of the people o
the Commonwealth can and will b.
properly safeguarded.
while we are averse to discuss
ing our case in the press in advanc
of its determination by the courts
we feel that the sensational state
ments attributed by the press to som
of the defendants in the suit justif.
us in making this statement, mas
much as the people of the Common
wealth are entitled to know that tn
laws enacted for their protection will
be enforced in the future as in tn
past. "-Bowling Green Times-Jour

CLOSING LAW is SUSTAINED

Columbus, Ohio-By refusing a re-
view, the Supreme Court upheld the
Judgment of Hamilton County Courts,
sustaining the validity of an ordi-
nance of the city of Cincinnati, re-
quiring meat markets to remain
closed on Sunday, and also the convic-
ton of Charles Derrick and Frank
Beel for violating the ordinance. The
meat dealers pleaded as an excuse for
keeping open on Sundays that they
catered to a class of trade that was
not able to keep ice to preserve meats
from Saturday purchases through
