Newspaper a Forum.

A weekly paper is the property
of the community in which it is
published, and not an organ in
which one or two men air their
views. Everyone has, or should
have, a kind of proprietary inter
est in ia personal interest, for
often it tells of things that vitality
affect you. The big daily paper
tells stories of affairs of national
interest; but the main purpose of
weekly paper is to set forth the
happenings in its immediate vicin-
ity The community is as active
and as good as the paper in most
cases; and the paper is generally
as alive and as good as the com
munity which it serves.--Virginia

this is going entirely too far. Not

RENAKER MURDER MYSTERY
STILL UNS0LVED

Detectives Ora Slater and Harry
Curry, of the Cal Grim Detective
agency, of Cincinnati, who are em-
ployed on the Renaker murder case,
left Winchester Saturday for Gin
cinnati, where they will remain UNI
til some new light has been cast
upon this case.
All the evidence that has been se~
cured has been turned over to the
prosecutor and will be submitted to
the grand jury. Whether the evil
dence the detectives and local au-
thorities have secured will be strong
enough for an indictment is not
known, but it is the general opinion
that it will not be conclusive enough
to point the finger of accusation to-
ward any of the suspects.
Chief of Police Jas. S. Mullins
said that he did not want the public
to think that they had given up
hope in this case because the detec-
tives had left town, but made the
statement that the local officials
were still on the job and would be
until the murderer had been brought
to justice, and he hoped that the
local police would uncover some val
liable evidence in the next few days.
The reward for the arrest and
conviction of the slayer of Renaker
has now reached total Of $4.125.

THE STRIKE SITUATION

The beginning of the sixth week
of the shopmen's strike on the l.. &
N. found little change in the situa-
ton as far as Paris is concerned.
The good order to which the striking
workmen pledged themselves in the
beginning has continued to prevail
here. Train service seems no worse
than it was this time last week, and
it has probably improved in some re-
spects.
The local strikers are optimistic
concerning the outcome, and are
still awaiting hopeful news from
thier leaders. Locally the situation
is very quiet, the men being deter
mined that no untoward incident
will be allowed to interfere with
their precOnceived plan of peaceful
and watchful waiting.
Authorities at Washington were
blamed for the continuance of the
rail strike in a statement made by
While L. Mapother, president of the
Louisville and Nashville Railroad

ties of persistently spreading broad
cast reports of prOblematic settle
ment thereby encouraging rail work
ers and preventing them from going
back to work.
Many of the union men realizing
that the strike is lost, would be
more than glad to return to work
but are held out by false hopes rails
| ed by their leaders who seize every
opportunity to spread broadcast re-
ports of problematical settlements, >
said Mr. Mapother.
/ "The strike is already wOn," he
continued, adding that with the re-
moval of intimidation, which he
claims has been practiced by local
strikers, there would be a general
movement back to work.
No immediate change in the pro
gram of the maintenance of way un.
ion is contemplated at present, E. F
Cradle, president of the organiza-
ton, said at Chicago. He added
however, that if present practices or
some railroads continue cit is hard
telling where the matter may lead
