Governor Beckuam will be com mended for vetoing the bills to farnieh free copies of Kentucky reports to Cir tuit, County and Federal clerke, and to furnish complete reports and documents to counties where they have been burned or destroyed. It is estimated that theeo bills would have cost the State over 560, 000 bad they been approved and it would have been throwing away just that much money, as in many counties but little care is taken of such documents. THE SALOON MEN. The saloon men of this city had a meeting Monday night for the purpose of forming an organization for the better conduct of their business. The object of their coming together as a society is not, as has been stated, to defy the city authorities in any manner whatever; on the contrary, it is their aim to so conduct their affairs as to meet with the approval of all fair-minded men. The matter of operating, or permitting to be operated on their premised, slot machines, was the least of their thoughts at this meeting; in fact the subject was not mentioned one way or another. They wish to be understood as desiring to cc-operate with the city officials in conducting their business in such a man ner as will meet with the approval of the liberal citizen and as is granted them by license. Public Ledger. The Bulletin's information in regard to the object of the meeting of the saloon men Monday night came indirectly from one of their own number and it is pre sumed that he knew what ho was talk ing about. We don't know what was discussed, but the publication cf the meeting probably caused an abandon ment of eomo of their plans. TheBuLLE tin's information was that some of them at least did contemplate setting up slot machines again, and the scheme hit upon to avoid the penalty was to give something to every one who played the machines, a cake of chewing gum was the gift euggested by some cf them The publication that it is a penitentiary offense to set up one of these gambling devices may explain why the scheme was abandoned and "the subject not mentioned one way or another." And probably nothing was Baid "one way or another' about "running things" during the approaching Red Men's street fair. The Bulletin will give the saloon men a little advice and they can accept it or not just as it suits their pleasure. If they know what is good for them they will co-operate with the city officials in conducting their business as the laws say it shall be conducted and as their license requires. This will be a step in the right direction for the "better con duct" of their business. The "approval of the liberal citizen" has nothing to do with the case, unless that approval is based on compliance with the laws on the subject; PERSONAL. .

Robersou our community loses one of its most noble women. An earnest Christian, indulgent mother, loyal friend, a good and charitable neighbor, small wonder indeed if the passing of such a life would cot leave an aching void in many home?, to be solaced only by sweet memories of numerous deeds of kindness and lore and the comforting knowledge that "all Is now well" with their lored one "where falleth no night." For thirty years a patient sufferer, yet with the sacrificing devotion of a mother's lore she taught her children the lessons of duty and honor, which, as tho years rolled by, made them honest, upright citizens and intelligent members of society.
