in each county in one newspa-
per, which makes the official
printing easily accessible to
everyone, and saves the cost of
the publication now required in
three newspapers in each coun-
ty."
OF course the purpose of the
Courier-News was to give the impress
sion that "oficial printing" means
nothing more or less than official
county printing-such as commits
sioners' proceedings, notices of cleo
tions, etc. as distinguished. from
what might be called private official
printing-such as the publication of
probate notices, mortgage foreclosure
notices, and the like.
The Chronicle charges the Courier
News with having deliberately and
maliciously misstated the fact in
this matter. We know that the
Courier-News is willfully mendacious,
because when Governor Frazier
signed the printing bill (Senate Bill
No. 1879 that paper stated that the
act did not apply to the general run
of legal notices but to Official coun-
ty printing" only. Someone called
it's attention to the misstatement, and
a day or two alter the Courier News
corrected itself. And now, because
that is the only feature of the act
that could be justified by any sane
or logical argument, the Courier
News has the hardihood again to pre-
tend that the law applies to official
county printing only.
Now, what are the facts We
have before us a copy of the "Popu-
| lar Edition of the Session Laws of
1912" compiled by the Secretary of
State under authority of law. On
page 223 we find estate Publication
and Printing Commission: An Act
creating a State Publication and
Printing Commission; prescribing
it's duties and powers; and repeating
all acts and parts of acts in conflict

proviso that organized cities, towns
and villages where no official paper
is published may designate an Off
cial newspaper for the publication of
such notices and legal publications as
are required by law for said cities,
towns or villages to be published.
| Even the men who conceived this
choice bit of sknlduggery seemed
dimly to realize that Their was a
point of infamy beyond which it
would not be wise to go; and so they
concluded to let organized cities,
towns or villages print their measly
ordinances and sidewalk assessment
notices in a local newspaper-the
graft was rich enough anyhow
The above quotations from the act
itself disposes of the silly pretense
that the provisions apply to official
county printing only. The other
claim-that the Briton act would
save taxpayers scads of MONEYS
equally dishonest. For if the editor
of the Courier-News has sense
enough to come in out of the rain he
ought to be able to understand that
the taxpayers in a county would not
be able to lay up a cent from the fact
that a Notice and Citation, Hearing
of Final Account and Distribution Of
Estate" for example, was published
in a certain newspaper designated by
the printing commission at Bis
marck instead of being published in
a newspaper designated by the ad-
ministrator of the estate in question.
The notice would need to be publish
ed in only one newspaper, in any
event, and the publication fee would
be precisely the same In either case.
But the Courier-News is not as
stupid as it appears to be. 1t is
merely living up to the advise given
to Senator Mess: go home and lie
like a damned horsethief."

DECISION ON
100000 ESTATE
HANDED DOWN
Miss Elizabeth Power Controls Entire
Estate Of Her Father, the Late
John II. Wilson, According to
Court Ruling.

One Of the most important cases in
the Mason Circuit Court in recent
years was the suit for construction
Of the will Of the late John H. Will
son. This estate is estimated to be
worth more than 100000 and is COM
posed Of some Of the best residence
and business property in the city of
Maysville as well as some of the best
farms in Mason county.
Under the will the estate was d.
vided between the deceased's two
daughters and the will stated that at
the death Of either or both the share
of either or both was to go to Mr..
Wilson's heirs. Mrs. Elizabeth Pow
er. of this city is now the only child
living, her sister having died some
time ago. The chief matter of litiga-
tion in the case was as to who were
the heirs of Mr.. Wilson and to whom
should the share of the deceased sis
ter 60.
Judge Newells decision is that Mrs.
Power is the only surviving heir and
the deceased sisters portion of the es-
tate reverts to her in fee simple while
her own half remains hers only for
life. The case will be taken to the
Court of Appeals.

the delegation that It was not the in
tention OF the merchants of this city
to secure any of the retail business
that was rightfully due West Union
but he hoped the men would carry the
word back to the citizens of Adams
county that Maysville would like for
them to remember our slogan, "If you
cant buy 1t In West Union come to
Maysvllle."
President II. J, Cochran of the
Chamber OF Commerce also gave the
men assurance of the desire of the
business men of Mason county to work
harmoniously with those of Adams
county In an endeavor to secure better
roads and markets. He also express
ed his hope that the men of Southern
ohio would continue to cooperate
with our men in an endeavor TO de-
velop the territory which we were
both interested in.
After the supper the men took a
ride about the city, in machines. and
were shown to some of the prominent
places of interest after which they
enjoyed the musical program rendered
by the Miami Glee Club at the High
School.
At the conclusion of the musical
program Prof. Caplinger told the men
of the progress of the Educational
Life of the city Of Maysville in re-
cent years and gave them the oppor-
tunity Of seeing what was being done
In the Manual Training and Domestic
Science Department.
The delegation then visited the new
power plant which would be to the
credit of community five times the
size of Maysville, after which Presi-
dent Cochran took them through the
cotton mill and explained the various
processes necessary in the making of
a ball of twine.
The men thoroughly enjoyed the
evening and expressed the hope that
some time in the near future thev
would be again privileged to entertain
a delegation of the citizens of Mason

FATHER IS LANDED IN
JAIL FOR NON. support
Fleming County Judge Puts Hum.
phries In Jail For Failing to Pro.
vide for His Children.

The Flemingsburg Times-D Democrat
says:
Last week we had an item about
the children of John Samuel Hum
phries, asking some one to adopt them
After that time Mr.. Humphries took
the children to Maysville and seemed
to be dragging them around without
making an effort to get work to sup
port them, and Judge Fulton issued
warrant for him for failure to sup
port his children, sent him to Jail to
be put to work, and sent the two boys
TO the county farm to be cared for
until homes can be found for them.
Anyone interested can get full par
ticulars by calling on Judge Fulton.
An amusing incident occurred Sunday
morning in connection with this case.
AS a couple of gentlemen were pass
ing the Jail on their way to Sunday
School, Mr.. Humphries was at one of
the upper windows of the Jail, and re-
marked in loud tone of voice: "Ain't
1t terrible to put a man in here for.
doin' nothin'?" Whereupon one of the
gentlemen, without knowing why he
had been put in Jail, answered. "But
you oughtn't do nothing" When he
found out the charge against Mr..
Humphries he felt that his answer had
hit the mark"

MIAMI GLEE CLUB GIVES A
HIGH CLASS entertainment
University Men Give Program Of
Beautiful Songs at High School
Auditorium Last Night-Read.
er Displays Unusual Ability.

The Miami University Glee Club
pleased very large audience at the
High School auditorium Wednesday
with a program Of high class songs
faultlessly rendered, selected readings
and impersonations and Jazz music
by College orchestra.
The first part of the program con-
sisted of several part songs and solos.
The part songs were especially beau
tiful. This music is seldom heard
here and in fact is seldom heard out
side a college town but it made a hit
with the local audience as was attest
ed by the loud and long enchoring
from the large audience The solos by
Messrs. Hotter, Farquear and Armis-
tead were splendid and quartette
sang march song which was full of
pep and music.
The readings by Mr.. Calderwood,
who, by the way, has been on the Red
path program for several years, were
far above the ordinary. Mr.. Calder
woods first reading in which he took
the part of an old actor who lamented
the passing of the great actors of
whom he and Booth were the stars
"who hit a little bit" displayed great
dramatic ability while his impersona-
tions of small boy and an Irishman
were good.
The third and last part of the pro-
gram was probably the most appre-
ciated by the audience. In this part
the boys threw themselves into the
real college spirit as If they were on
the campus and the University songs
and camp songs were rendered with
vim and ginger The Jazz orchestra
was good
The young mems program was un-
usually good and they will be well
coined back to Maysville at some fu-
ture date. 1t is interesting to note
that all but two of the company of 33
young men, had seen service in the
world war.

MASON COUNTY IS
ASSIGNED Seven TIN
HATS FROM HUNS
Captured German Helmets VIII Be
Distributed Among Liberty Loan
Workers fthe County.

II has Just become known here that
Mason county will share better than
most counties in the Lexington dis
trict In the distribution of Captured
German helmets during the Fifth or
Victory Loan Campaign.
A large number of these captured
tin hats will be brought to the Unit
ed States by the government to be
used as prizes during the next loan
campaign. The entire Cleveland dis
trict, in which Mason county is locat-
ed, will be furnished with 5000 he'll
NETS. The allotment has been work.
ed out approximately on basis of the
number of subscribers in the Fourth
Liberty Loan. Washington has not
given definite shipping date but they
will be distributed in plenty of time
to be in the hands Of the various coun-
ty officials before the end of the Vic
tory Loan.
The Lexington area, in which Mays
vile is located, has been apportioned
369 helmets and Mason county is list
ed as the fifth largest county in the
state. This means that we will re-
ceive the fifth largest number of he'll
NETS of any county in the district.
Campbell county will receive "a hats,
Kenton 36, Fayette 10, Boyd 19 and
Mason 7. The other counties in the
district will receive 5 helmets each.
Full particulars as to how these he'll
NETS can be obtained by the workers
of the county will be explained by the
campaign officials at later date. The
helmets will be displayed in the show
windows of local stores as soon as
they have been received here.
