Dispatches early told of tho dcsjier atc sltuntlon at Adrlanoplu and rn couraKed tho belief that the fortress might fall before tho end of the week, but several assaults are rvK)rted slnco and the stronghold has not yet been taken.

OUR' DEFINITION FOR DEVELOPMENT A meeting of tho stockholders of tlio Northern Coal nnd Coke Company 1ms been arranged for to day in New York for the purpose of forming n new organization to bo known as tho Klkliorn Con I and Fuel Company, and tho purchase by that company of tho property of the Northern Coal and Coke Company, tho Hlnckstono, Cokeland, the Harold Company nud a part of tho Denver Creek Compnny. Thin consolidation is said to mean much for the development of Eastern Kentucky. Tho Company, ns niinr.unced, will own three hundred thousand ncres of the best coal Inud in tlio stale. The Citizk.v lias often heretofore called ntlention lo tliti real meaning of the term "development" as imcd by rich capitalists. It is spoken of by them as the coming.of an ern of great prosperity to the locality, but in reality it only means prosperity to and for the owners of the resources of the district, tho original owners of tho land, of tho coal and tho timber in almost nil cases having parted with their possessions for n song, nud, when tho so called development comes, they aro left in tho lurch. When tho development goes, an it must in is few yenrs, the hillsides will be stripped of the timber and tho black diamonds will havo In-en taken from the coal reins nnd the people who snrrivo will then have to oko out a miserable living from the inhospitable Roil ns best they can. They will be driven to agriculture, then possibly later on, as nn alternative to starvation, to scientific agriculture. Wo hear much nowdays of conservation conservation of natural resources. It is a policy that nlways affects people at a distance.

Kentucky is being exploited not developed. Kentucky is asleep, and it is to bo feared she will not awake un til her precious treasures are gone, until her nnturnl resources are completely in the hands of ruthless exploiters.

APPEAL OF THE AFTER SELF It is easy for young men and young women and even children to realize tho haudicnp tho loss of n leg or an arm or the loss of sight or henriug entails upon them when they become men and women. And they are willing to practice all ordinary precautious to prevent such a handicap. Hut it does not seem to be so easy to realize that the after man or woman may be handicapped just.ns seriously in other respects- handicapped by bad habits, by youthful cnreleBsiicPs aud indifference, by the waste of time or by some moral lapse. Every youth, therefore, should be made to conceive, if possible, the after man or after woman the man or woman he or she expects to be in the future standing in the distnnce and pleading for a chance, pleading to youth the earlier self not lo encumber middle age nnd after life, but to give tho after self the best chance possible. This thought we hino found well put iu the Southern School Journal where it is quoted ns coming from Dr. Dnvid Starr Jordan. We re-produce it with the hope that it may catch the eye and influ ence the will of any thoughtless or reckless youth. " Your lirst duty in life is toward your after self. So -live that your after self the man you ought to he may In hl. time be po Ible and actual. Far away In the yeart be is waiting hU turn. His body, hi brain, his soul, are in your bovish hand.

WifT you, Hoy, let lilin come as a man among men in his timer Or will you throw away his inheri tance before lie has had the chance to touch It? Will you turn orr to him n lira In distorted, a mind diseased? A will untrained (o action? A spinal cord grown through and through with devil grass of that vile harvest we call wild oats? "Will you let him come, taking your place, gaining through your experiences, hallowed through your joys; building on them Ids own? Or will you fling his hope away, decreeing wanton-like that the man you might have been hall never be? "This is your problem in life; the problem of more im portance to you than anr or nil others. How will you meet it, as a man or as a fool " When you answer thi, we shall know what the world can make of you." A recent editorial In the IkjiiIsvIIIo Herald bitterly denounces Governor McCrcary, calling him ''the Domocrat'c tiolltlcal antiquity who now makes his residence nt Frankfort In gtibernatorl. al capacity." The Herald contrnsts tho attention i tho duties of tho state shown by ex-Goyernor Wilson, who was pretty 'generally criticised for his banquet ing tours, In comparison to the neg lect shown by tho present Governor.

There are dissenting opinions to this view, however, and If the Governor dissents, this new argument will of course fall as tho others.
