The unauthorized statement has
gone to the public that the money
raised from the proposed road tax, If
the measure carries. will be used for
building pixies. 1t is unfortunate
that such statement should have
gone out. 1t is the intention of the
fiscal court to devote the money so
raised to grading, draining and re-
ducing the grades of all the roads in
the county, and it is not the purpose
of the court to use one dollar of it
for building pixies. The money rails

prices went of we suggested they
hold for better prices, and in
both instances our advices were JUS

he had to meet. The storm cloud of
labor disturbances already looms
large on the horizon, and will break
long before his second administra-

by concessions, and will have to be
met by firm. and may be, drastic
measures. The Presidents biggest

COUNTRY AND CITY LIFE.

A wealth of pretty sentiment
clusters around the quiet peacefulness
of country life. 1t is a pretty thought
to recall the family gathering, noon
and night, around the hearthstone OF
the isolated farm house, set amid the
cluster of wind-waved trees. 1t is
good to think of the country lanes,
bordered with matted grass and the
pretty wild flowers, along which
youthful lovers walk and talk and
plan and build castles in the air, and
where the innocent mirth of child
with cheerful merriment. 1t pleases
to recall the oft repeated gatherings
at the old community church, that
song and prayer and shouts of glad
ness have hallowed through the years,
and there is even a grand il solemn
beauty in the sadness of passing the
old church yard, the final resting
place of those once loved but gone.
But the beauty of such scenes lies

that have not touched the fevered

AS we see IL, the reason for tobacco
selling at lower prices in Owensboro
than at any other point in the state
for many weeks was that the Owens
boro market was too small to absorb
the immense volume of tobacco
marketed there. The only remedy
for this condition is for Ohio county
growers 10 devise some manner of
marketing at home. They should
either pool. and all sell together,
or establish a loose leaf house IN the
county.

Commonwealth Attorney c. f.
Smith deserves the highest credit
of the good citizens of Ow-
ensboro for clearing up the immoral
resorts of that city, after the police
power of the city had failed to do it.
Mr.. Smith, without taking the police
power into his confidence, filed in
JUNCTION suits, in circuit court, against
the proprietors of the immoral re-
sorts and asked for an order of abate-
ment. A few days later the 'soiled
doves" folded their tents and stole
quietly away to cities more friendly
to the siren songs of Illicit love. This
action of Mr.. Smiths illustrates what

conviction and courageous energy,
can do for the public whose interests

We have read with great interest
the newspaper comments, of the
state, upon the life of editor James
Lemon, of the Mayfield Messenger,
who died last week. Col. Lemon was
not perhaps the ablest or best known
editor of the state, but he had an in
dividuality that came in for wide
comment. His commentators were
of one mind that he was bold and
fearless, and never hesitated to
state an opinion, whether right
or wrong. OF such are news
papers worthy of the name made up.
The editor who fearlessly expresses
his honest opinions always commands
respect, even though he may be often
in error. There is no place in pub
lie life for the cowardly cur The
newspaper is the public exponent of
popular opinion, and only when it
dares to express such opinion. fearless
