of H enry You tsey.
STAR WITNESS IN THE TRIAL
Tell* Where He Wa* When Fatal 8hot
Wa» Fired—Denies Certain State¬
ments Made to General Leads Prior
to Shooting Regarding Goebel.
S'rsnkfcrt, Ky., April 21.—Henry
Youtsey was called lor further cross-
examination in the trial of James How¬
ard today. Youtseywas asked if he
did not refuse to tell Assistant Audi- )
ter Frank Johnson where he was when
Goebel was shot He said Johnson
asked the question and he told John- j
son he was in a safe place. Johnson
said that was not sufficiently definite !
as the detectives had called for par-
ticuiar data as td where all employes
rtf of fhp the office office were were when when the the shot «hr,t was ....
fired. Youtsey then told him he was
In the toilet room in the basement of
the executive building. Youtsey de¬
nied that he had ever told. General A.
Leads, prior to the shooting, that Goe¬
bel once beat him out of a fee and
that he despised him. He admitted
that he told R. H. Witherspoon and
Other relative., that the newspaper re¬
ports that he hau named Jim Howard
as the man who fired the shot, were
without foundation. I
"It was my defense at that time,” |
gaid Youtsey, "that Howard and i
mo
were strangers and I told everybody I
had never seen Howard till we met in | j
jail.” 1
Further along in the interrogation
Youtsey declared that from and after ;
the shooting of Goebel all of the others
engaged in the killing conspired to¬
gether to clear themselves and throw .
the entire responsibility of the crime
upon him.”
Responding to .questions as to nego.
tiation- with Dr. Johnson to kill Goe¬
bel, Youtse-y said he wept to see Sen- s
ator Deboe, and told him Johnson and
others were willing to do it. Sena¬
tor Deboe, according to witness, re¬
plied that enough Democrats were go-
Ing to vote with Taylor to retain him
la office and it would not be necessary
to kill Goebel. Deboe said it must
cot be done. Witness went back and
told Johnson what Deboe said. John¬
son told him not to pay any attention
to Deboe but to go and see what Gov-
ernor Taylor mid about it. He went
to see Taylor and told him what John¬
son said, and Taylor raised no objec¬
tion to the plan of shooting from tb
secretary cf state's office.

CLAIM UNJUST DISCRIMINATION.
Coal Carrying Roada Charged With
Violating Interstate Law,
New York, April 21—The Inter¬
state commerce commission sat In thi«
city today to consider the complaint
of William R. Hearat that oestain
coal carrying roads are violating the
interstate commerce law. The de¬
fendant roads are the Philadelphia
and Reading, the Lehigh Valley, the
Central of New Jersey, the New York,
Susquehanna and Western, the Erie,
the Ontario and Western, the Dela¬
ware and Hudson, the Pennsylvania
and the Baltimore and Ohio.
The specific complaints of Mr.
Hear&t are that the roads charge un¬
reasonable rates; that they unjustly
discriminate I nfavor of the bituminous
against the anthracite coal companies
and that they have contrived, in viola¬
tion of the anti-pooling section of the
Interstate commerce law, to discrimi¬
nate against the independent coal min¬
ing companies in favor of the compa¬
nies controlled by the railroads,
The commission is also to consider
while here the old ease of the com¬
plaint of the Texas Cattle Raisers' as¬
sociation and the Chicago Live Stock
association against the Chicago local
transfer tax which calls for the pay¬
ment of 22 per car for cattle trans¬
ferred from the termini of the western
railroads into the Chicago Union stock
yards. At the first hearing on that
suject the commission ordered a re¬
duction of from 22 to 21 per car.
That ruling was submitted to the Unit¬
ed States supreme court which sent
the whole case back to the Interstate
commerce commission for more evi¬
dence.
None of the railroads were repre¬
sented when the commission convened.

HOW INDIFFERENCE
HURTS A TOWN
Are You Backing Up Griffin and Doing All That
You Can For It?
A man who is indifferent to suc¬
cess Is likely to tnedt with, failure;
and a town is hurt- iin the same way.
The towns that are prospering today
are growing in population and en¬
joying industrial development be-
oause the citizens of the place are on
the alert, constantly wetohing ior
an opportunity to help their town.
The Dalton Press said in a recent
issue:
‘‘Dalton has lost another million
dollar cotton mill and Cartersvdie
is the winner. The owners wanted
to oome here but could not secure
the property they wanted. Tne
Press thinks some one shonld take
steps to foster and cnconrage these
enterprises, The fault is in our
indifference."
Commenting on this, the Amsri-
ons Press well says:
This is the same old story that
has so often been told, the sumo old
reason why many towns have during
the past lost many an enterprise

fnture neglected. “Negligence and
indifference" will destroy the pres¬
tige of any oommunity.
This is not an overdrawn pioture,
for there are many towns now de¬
caying and going to rain and dilapi¬
dation simply because their people
are fast asleep, because they are not
up and doing for their community.
And just ns Dalton has lost this
million dollar cotton faotory, and
allowed it to Bad a location at
Cartersviile, just so many other
towns are losing minnfaotnring
enterprises — through “Indiffer¬
ence."
Life is what we make it! A ua-
tlon is what we make It! A Stale
is what we make it I A town is what
we make it! A neglected town
carries upon its face the Impress of
that fact; and a town well oared for
bears indisputable evidence of the
fact by the very tone and appeal-
anoe of the place.
The citizens of the plaoe make the
place what it is, and the town pros¬
pers jnst in proportion to the pnb-
lio interest manifested in il by her
citizmry.
Then, every town shonld be wide¬
awake and pulling at every striog
which is calculate! to bring about
social and industrial develptnent.
No town can. stand at 'parade

muchmnHt be on the march and
ready for any battlo through which
a step forward may be gained. Let
ns see to it that onr town goes for¬
ward and not backward^ Are you
in line and working to this end?.

seemed that in tbe briefest interval
the oongh would pass off and I
would go to sleep perfectly free
from oongh and its aooompanylng

aoted an a most agreeable surprise Is
putting it very mildly. I had no
idea that it would or conld knook

never tried it for snoh a purpose,
