THE POLICY OF A GOOD COUNTRY
NEWSPAPER.

1t has probably never occurred
to some people that the policy of
a newspaper is not made on
street corners, and that its own
ers and publishers are ever
mindful of the public when they
put thought into cold type.
A newspaper is fearless. II
never hesitates to tell the truth,
to criticise, or to trample on toes
that happen to be left lying
around in mud.
A good newspaper makes en-
emies. 1t has more traducers to
the square foot than ten thou
sand acres of hell has devils.
What one man condemns it for
printing another gives it praise.
Articles that make one dog howl
wags another's tail, and proves
beyond a doubt that never in all
history have all the people been
pleased with one product.
A good newspaper makes
friends. Both kinds-hypocrit-

met and slew the hapless youth.
The trail, in question, came
from the valley of Big Creek
and intersected trail which led
from Buffers Fork of Russell,
in the neighborhood of Bliss,
and was made by the buffaloes
and cattle of the early settlers
in passing from the cane brakes
upon Buffers Fork to those up
on the Russell and Pettits Fork,
of Russell. Only a few yards
from the hole, in which the body
of young Trabue was thrown,

Casey shot and killed the last
unfriendly Indian ever known to
have been in Adair county. The
traces of the old original Column
bia and Glasgow road may yet
be seen where it passes immed-
lately by the hole. This road
ran very direct course from
Columbia to the county line, in
the direction of Glasgow, and
why it was abandoned will al
ways remain one of the myster-
les of the past. For many years
the travel, which would natural
ly pass over it from Columbia to
Big Creek, has been diverted to

designated, as the road from

less than it is appreciated by
them.
A good newspaper stands for
things. 1t stands for morality.
Even if it has to go into the
barn to make the ass bray, it
will do so if it thinks it best for
the community.
1t stands for justice. Even
though it has to drag down the

its agitation for right for all

THE HARPES.

near Stanford, Tor several Gays,
the Hsrpes departed in the d.
rection of the head waters of
Green river. On the day follow
ing their departure, the dead
body of a young man, was dis
covered in the forest near the
Wilderness road, where it
passes through the hills
of the Rockcastle. The young
man had been killed by "a rifle
shot through his body and then
robbed. His name was Lang.
ford or Landlord, and he was
passing, as an emigrant, from
Virginia to Kentucky, along the
wilderness road, which was then
the usual highway of emigrants
1rom Virginia to the Blue Grass
counties in central Kentucky.
Suspicion, at once, fell upon the
Harpes, as the probable perpe-
Srators of the crime. At that
time. there resided in Stanford,
a certain Captain Joseph Ballen-
ger. who, from his reputation
for reckless determination and
courage, had earned the name
of Devil" Joe Bal!enger. Bal
lenger associated three or
foar kindred spirits with him.
self and they went in pursuit of
the Harpes for the purpose of
affecting their capture. After
the departure of the Harpes
from the camp near stanford, a
heavy snow had fallen and the
pursuers had great difficulty in
following the trail, but finally
found them encamped near the
banks of the Green river, where
Liberty, the county seat of Ca
Sey county, is now situated. At
the first, the Harpes made a
show of resistance, but Ballen-
ger warned them, that if they
did not instantly submit, they
woul be shot to death, and they
4hereupon sullenly capitulated.
An examination of their effects
resulted in the discovery in their
possession of several fine linen
shirts, one of which had been
perforated by a rifle bullet and
bore the traces of blood. Each
shirts bore the initials OF the
murdered Langford or Lark
ford. The perforations in the
shirt correspondent with the
wound in the body of the MUIR
4dered man, A number of gold
coins were, also, found in their
possession, which were similar
to ones, which the young man
s~as,said to have had in his pos
session previous to his death.
The circumstances of the shirts
and coins and other facts were
considered as proving conclusive
ly. the guilt of the Harpes, and
the justices of the peace. before
whom their preliminary hearing
was had, ordered them TO be
committed to the Jail at STAN
ford to await the action of the
court ofoyer and terminer. This
court, at that time, sat at or
near Danville and, in a short
time, the Harpes were commit
ted to Jail at that place for the
purpose of causing them to un-
edergo a trial upon the charge of
having murdered the young man,
Langford or Landlord. before
a trial was had. however, in
some way, which has now been
