The Kentucky Election.

Such scattering returns from the Ken
lucky state election of Monday as was re-
ceived at Louisville, indicate about the
same democratic majority as in 1871, when
Leslie was elected by 81, 1853, with posi-
bility that it may exceed those figures.
Hcrlan, the republican candidate for gov
ernor, generally runs ahead of his ticket,
and especially in Louisville (his home),
where the usual sweeping democratic ma
jority was cut down to 27SS in total vote
of 1904. There were no republican can
didates for the legislature in Louisville,
and the full democratic delegation was
returned. Bowling Green gives 225
democratic majority, a gain over Leslie's
vote, and Franklin county $50
majority, light gain over Leslies vote.
Madison county, the home of McCreary,
the democratic candidate, gives him
large majority, and Paducah 1856 majority,
a gain of 2l0 over Leslie's vote. Hart
coin, Montgomery, &&9sm86,,' 'TludRla ala
Rock Castle counties give increased demo-
cratic majorities. The successful ticket
was as follows, reflections being marked

A Grave Question.

The London undertakes are raising
lively breeze of indignation over the Duke
of Sutherland's recent neat invention for
accelerating decomposition by patent burial
baskets, and have held a meeting in that
city, at which they protested, "against the
spread of notions which threaten to injure
our craft and degrade the remains of our
common humanity The trouble with the
London undertakers is not 40 much senti-
mental as financial. Once the plain wicker
basket, adorned with flowers, comes into
use, the rosewood and slver-plated casket
will go out of use, and funerals will become
comparatively inexpensive. Hence the
unhappiness of the undertakes. Mean
while, the general public will be delighted
II 1t shall eventuate that the Duke of
Sutherland has made it possible for people
to died and be buried cheaply.

BristoW's Battle.

The Springfield Republican says IT
Mr.. Bristow ever "gets to it," he should
write out his experience with the crooked
whisky people. A descriptive if not wholly
original title would be, What I Knoo
About Collecting Rerenue Under Difficulties.
The public has had some hints and Gimp
ses of these difficulties, but it will never
have any accurate and adequate idea of
them unless the secretary tells the story
himself.
we notice occasionallya disposition to
find fault with Mr.. Bristow-to criticise
his slow rate of progress. This impati-
ence is natural enough, but it is unreason-
able aud unjust. Recollecting the obsta-
Giles he has had to surmount or flank
within the department as well as without,
above as well as belOw--the surprising
thing is that he has got along az fast and
as far as he has. He is now just entering
upon what we suspect will prove at least
as bad piece of road as any he has yet
traversed. The experience of our New
York neighbors has taught us that it is one
thing to catch rich and politically influ-
entail criminals, and quite another thing to
hold them. Mr.. Bristow has caught some
of bis rascals, and is close on the heels of
others. Some scores of indictment have
been found. So far, so good. Having
got them indicted, the next thing is, obvi-
onsly, TO get them convicted and punished
Easier said than done. They have great
deal of money. They control great votes.
They have powerful friends at court.
Reasoning from recent experience and
analogy, we are forced to the disagreeable
conclusion that the hardest and most dis
couraging part of Mr.. Brstow's task is
still before him. In any event, he and we
will have the consolation of knowing that
he has given the ring "bad quarter of an
hour"-lhe very worst quarter of an hour
in its whole sinful life. 1t ia only neccs-
sary to read the st. Louis Times or Mil
waukee Senttnet-not to mention minor
organs-to see that Mr.. Brstow has made
himself one of the best-hated and best
feared men in the country. The fact will
be fatal objection to him as presden-
tial candidate in the eye of the practical
politicians. Possibly the people NAV see
it in Il different light Their notions of
availability are little crude and eccentric

Mountain Meadow Massacre Trial.

The defence offered on Monday the dep
osition of Brigham Young and George A..
Smith, which were ruled out, but were
filed by the clerk. They state in substance
that neither party issued any instructions
in regard to the Arkansas emigrant train
that the people were counselled not to sell
grain TO any parties for forage that neither
party knew of the massacre until after
wards, and then only by general report.
Most of the day was taken up by counsel
discussing the instruction to be submitted
to the court. Judge Foreman delivered
the charge on Tuesday.
