Interest is keen all over this
section i'll the examining trial OF
Reese Fox Oh at Winchester for
alleged completely IN the murder
OF Leon Renaker.
The trial is still in progress,
having lasted through two days
with the multitude of witnesses.
The principal witness seems to
have been Hartin Smith, ferry
man at BoonesborO, and former
" OF Richmond. The defense is
trying hard to impeach his tes-
timony that he saw Hardman
and Fox cross ire river on the
night of the murder. Opinion
seems to be that Smith made a
good witness and took care" Of
himself in good shape on tho
stand Saturday. The dispatches
from WINCHESTER cover a large
part of the testimony:
Winchester, KY. Aug. 2S-A
personal encounter between
Clyde Douglas. brotherin-law OF
Scobee I1ardman accused in CON
nection with the murder of Leon
Renaker, aud II. \. Cook, in
whose home Douglas and his
wife live was a feature of the
second day Of the trial Of Reese
Fox accused with Hardman as an
alleged accomplice.
The trial was adjourned Sat
urday until Monday morning al
s O'Clock after the defense had
placed on the stand Fox and two
other witnesses. Several other
witnesses remain to be heard.
Mr.. Cook testified at the morn
ing trial Saturday that Fox hal
come to the house occupied by
Douglas and Cook families when
Douglas VAS not there, since the
murder of Leon Renaker, anl
talked to Mrs. Douglas. The oc-
casion was after Fox had been
questioned by officials as to his
whereabouts and company with
Scobee Hardman on the night Of
Monday, july "a, when Mr.. Rem
aker is believed to have been
killed, Mr.. Cook testified. Mrs.
Cook also testified Saturday at
the morning session that Fox,
came to the house late one af-
ternoon and remained with Mrs.
Douglas after Douglas left.
Saturday, while he was read
ing in his apartment, Mr. Cook
was told by his little son that
Mr.. Douglas wanted to see him
in the hall, Mr.. Cook said Sat-
urday afternoon. When he went
into the hall, Douglas asked him
what he meant by giving testi-
mony that would ruin Mrs
Douglas character, Mr.. Cook
stated, and then, it is claimed,
Mrs. Douglas stepped up to him
and said:
"You swore to lot Of lies"
"You are woman and | can't
hit you" Mr.. Cook stated that
he replied, and that Mr.. Douglas
then made hot rejoinder.
Mr.. Cook said that he then
grabbed Douglas and pushed him
down in a corner, when Mrs.
Douglas, Mrs. Cock and the chill
dren pulled him off. Neighbors
then rushed in, but there was no
further disturbance and when
Mayor George Tomlinson arriv-
ed few minutes later Douglas
was leaving the house.
Mr.. Cook stated in regard tol
Eis testimony that while on the
stand he was questioned only
about one visit OF Fox to the

rJERE is as intensive a pronounce
II ment of Americanism as ever
was made. 1t is tingling thing.
Webster made this speech when he
was well advanced in life. He had
lived long enough to know how good
thing 1t is to be born an American; !;
how good thing 1t is to live an Amer
lean. and how good thing 1t Is to die
an American. He had tested the life
and found it good.
II the men Of all countries felt to-
ward their own lands as Webster felt
toward America there would be no
emigration to fhe United States unless
IT we're forced by the overpopulafion
o( th,. other countries OF the world.
The setting of the tide Of emigration
westward proved that men OF other
lands looked on the blessing Of life
in this country as the great statesman-
orator looked upon it. The Immigrant
was denied the privilege of American
birth. but he was not to be denied tile
right Of American living and ultimate
IN the right Of American dying.
One of the hardest things for men
70 understand today Is why there
should be so strong need for t''s
,A,nericanization Of the immigrani
The presumption always has been that
the man who wants to come to this
country should know enough about its
institutions, its opportunities and its
duties to make at least one kind oi
Anpricanization unnecessary. The
people of this country, however, are
confronted with the forbidding fact
.hat a considerable number OF our i'm
migrants need to be taught not on!,
lie customs Of America but the spiri
Of things among US, those things
which alone can make real American
