dark mystery. and. much to our con-
fusion, we could not do so. You should
no longer keep under your hat such
valuable piece of political informa-
ton.
You really seem hurt, Mr.. Editor,
at our inability to grasp and record
upon the tablets of memory, your pro-
found cogitations upon this subject,
and you say that such inability on our
part demonstrates conclusively our
unitness to handle the sacred ballot.
This last may, or may not be true,
but may be observe-oh, very timidly
that among the questionnaires that
we classified last spring. we found
listed many men who had never been
thru the third grade in school, and we
feel sure that the minds Of such I'M
fortunates would almost match our
own in feebleness; but you do not
seem at all disturbed over the fact
that they have a voice in the govern
ment they obey. And do you know,
Mr.. Editor, that deep down in our
heart, we have a notion that, when
we get the ballot-when we get it, you
Understand, not five are going to
be able to use it about as intelligently
as some other people we could men
tion-if we were mean enough.

A number of letters have been re-
ceived from Judge ]. C. B. Koonce,
who has just arrived overseas. The
journey was completed IN unusually
good time, thirteen days, and in pleas
ant weather. The letters were written
en- route, from Winchester, London
and Paris. Judge Koonce spent the
day sightseeing in Winchester, visit
ing all the places of historical inter-
est, among them the old cathedral. In
London, the Y M. G. A. workers who
went over with Judge Koonce were
not allowed to leave the train, so only
a cursory view of the largest city in
the world was obtained. In Paris
Judge Koonce took his front line
trench examination, which he passed
successfully. At the time he was
there, some hundred women workers
connected with the Y. NJ. C. A. were
being fitted out with the serviceable
uniform, heavy overcoats, high rub
Der boots, ETC., which are so needed in
their strenuous work. Several times
while In Paris, Mr.. Koonce heard of
Mr.. w. T. Gary, but never met him.
1t was understood that Mr.. Gary was
to leave in a few days for home. One
of the most pleasant sightseeing trips
was to wonderful Versailles, the dash
ing grandeur of which contrasted odd
.ly with the war time precautions
against destruction the French have
placed around all their art treasures.
Judge Koonce thinks that he is pro-
crossing fast in French, as he has
mastered the words for ham and
eggs, but very humorously remarks
that yet they are of no use to him as
he has not seen a piece of ham, and
eggs are &c. an order. We who COM
plain of high prices will be surprised
to hear than an order of steak and
potatoes with coffee is worth $3.50 in
our money. The last letter was from
Chaumont, where Judge Koonce has
been placed In charge of "hut." Al
though Chaumont was the center of
much interest, as the headquarters of
General Pershing and as the place
where the Armistice was signed, the
judge hopes to be transferred to a
more lively section, so to speak.

RAILROAD STRIKES MAY

Strike Of C. & O. Railroad Men In
Covington and Silver Grove Yards
May Cause Serious Situation
Along Main Line.

Machinists, boiler makers and car
repairers at the Covington and Silver
Grove yards on the G. & o. went on
q strike this morning demanding an
increase from 6S cents to So cents an
hour. This strike may prove quite
serious to Maysville and other cities
along the main lines of the c.. G. o. II
1t becomes necessary to put into effect
embargoes on this line as has been
necessary on other lines.
1t was learned Tuesday afternoon
that because of a similar strike on the
c. & o. Of Indiana that line had found
1t necessary to place such strict en-
bargoes that no food stuffs were COM
ing into Cincinnati over that line. Be-
cause Of this general strike condition
throughout the northeastern section
Of Kentucky, it was figured Tuesday
evening there would be approximately
1850 men affected in this section of the

PIONEER EDITOR IS TO have
HIS MEMORY PERPETUATED
John Bradford Club, Of Central Ken
lucky, to Unyeil Tablet in Men,
DRY Of First Kentucky Editor
Types For First Issue
Set In Maysville.

To the many students Of local his
tory It will be interesting to learn that
al last John Bradford, the editor OF
the first newspaper West Of the Allie
gl,eny Mountains,-the Kentucke Ca
zette, is 10 have his memory perpetu-
ated by means of fitting tablet to be
unveiled soon at Lexington, where the
first issue of the Gazette was publish
ed.
The John Bradford Club, composed
OF many Kentucklans interested in
state history and especially the history
Of the publishing business, has start
ed campaign to raise funds for this
memorial tablet. Judge Samuel M.
Wilson, Of Lexington, will also publish
a monograph on Bradford soon. This
will be the first Of annual historical
publications to be made by the club.
Maysville is particularly interested
in this John Bradford for he went
from Maysville to Lexington spending
some time in this city and while here
he set the first types for the first issue
OF his paper. In this respect Collins
History of Kentucky says:
"The first newspaper published west
of the Allegheny mountains excepting
the Pittsburg Gazette, which preceded
1t only few weeks) was the Kentucke
Gazette at Lexington-its first number
having been issued on the 18th day of
August, 1887. The matter intended for
that number was set in type on board
Of a fiat boat while descending the
Ohio river to Limestone (Maysville)
or else at Limestone while waiting for
pack-horses to transport it over the
great buffalo, Middle Trace, which
led over the "Sugar-loaf" hill Just
back Of that point and via the Lower
Blue Licks spring, to Lexington. An
apology of the editor, John Bradford
IN that first number-was ever a news
papers first unheralded by an apology
o. explanation ?-perpetuates the inter
esting information that, in that ter
rible carriage on pack-horses from
Limestone to Lexington, great part
of the types fell into pi.'"

The Board feels that the continued

pople appreciate the sort Of meetings
that are being given from year to year,
and they wish to provide room for the
many who would camp If rooms could

the fact that much of the popularity of
