JUDGE GEO. N. Brown has sent q
request to the Governor for State
troops to protect those miserable crea
lures, Neal and Craft, from death by
mob violence, and he has issued or
ders calling out the entire Second Reg
iment and the two Louisville compa-
mics to accompany them to Grayson.
While it is right and proper that the
authorities should prepare for any
emergency, we'll wager that a second
attempt to take the prisoners from the
soldiery by force will not be made.
The mob which attacked them at Ash
land had no idea that they would be
fired upon, else the first attempt would
not have rnaterialized. No set ofmen
are fools enough to rush into the jaws
of death and lose their lives in such a
cause as that.

ACCORDING to the Auditors report
sixty Kentucky counties drew more
from the State Treasury last year than
they put in, which causes the Louis
vile Poet to say that there are toe
many counties in the State. (ll7;) but
not too many for the desire of those
aspiring citizens who strive to hold
county Offices. New York, the En-
pire State, with 5000, 900 people and
a larger area than Kentucky, has only
60 counties, while this State has twice
that number. Thus the number of
public offices is vastly multiplied, with
not enough additional advantage to
the public to compensate the increased
expense.

source in Washington that Blackburn

amicablearrangement is more proba'

preciates the feelings Of the Kentucky

REPRESENTATIVE MILLER, of the
Ohio Legislature, is the bad man from
Bitter Creek. He not only went into
the body the other day as drunk as a
loon but threatened to kill the speaker
when he demonstrated with him for
his boisterousness. An attempt is be
ing made to withhold his per diem but
it ought not to succeed. Mr.. Miller
should not get drunk, but if be choos-
es to kill the speaker, perhaps that sin
might be forgiven him.

AN Illinois paper says that Senator
Cullum is in the prime of life, vigor-
Gus, active and aggressive. He will
be heard from in the Senate, and, says
an admirer, will dispute with any
man who assumes to control the poll
tics of Illinois the right to do so. He
will have his say and his share of the
patronage. 1t is probable that he
will resign the Governorship about
the let of FEBRUARY, and he will make
no appointments in the meantime,
leaving that responsibility to Governor
Hamilton.

Az ensilage congress is now In ses'
sion in New York and the farmers are
taking much interest in IT, The
French method Of preserving fodder
by ensilsge or continued pressure, is
gaining ground in this country and
has already proved a great saving.
The cost Of fodder for cattle during
the lengthy winter season is 30 great
that the handsome profits Of the mild
er months, when the pastures are
available, are seriously eaten into.
Through the use Of silos, fodder is not
alone stored at a time when il is ex-
ceedingly cheap, but it suffers little
deterioration throughout the winter
and is served TO the animals almost as
fresh and tender and juicy as when
fret brought in green from the fields.
Our farmers are slowly realizing the
value of this system, already thorough
ly established in France, and when
they have learned how cheaply ca
pacious silo can be built its adoption
will be general.

JOHNNIE JUMP UP WHITE has been
again asserting himself. His latest eff.
fort is TO have the desks Of the mem.
bers of Congress taken away and an
armchair with a drawer for writing
material and leaf fixed to one side
to write on. His reason for wishing
the change is that the present seats
are too comfortable and are in a great
measure responsible for a large
amount Of wasted time OF Congress.
John d. should 90 a step further and
demand that the members be made to
stand up during session and on one
foot at that. He could make big
reputation if it becomes a law for
being that kind Of a fowl, which is re
markable for the length Of time it
can thus stand he would soon be a

The Supreme Court has overruled
the decision of the Fayette Circuit
Court and the Kentucky Court Of APP.
peals in the case Of the negro Bush,
charged with the murder Of Miss Van
Meter, and he will have a new trial.
The murder occurred about four years
ago and since that time Bush has been
twice sentenced to be hung. The first
verdict was set aside by the L. s. Dis
trict Court because the grand jury had
been selected exclusively from whites
by virtue of a State law which is con-
trary to the Fourteenth Amendment,
and the Supreme Court set aside the
second for the same reason. The Fay.
cite people are justly indignant that
the murderer should go unpublished
so long by bubbles of the law, and a
mob spirit would not be hard to excite.
