JUDGE ToSEy lays down the law of IL
bel in a most reasonable and natural
construction. In instructing the jury
in the Vance case he said that paper is
privileged to publish matter of public
interest, il il has reason to believe that
the statement is true, even il il is not,
and gives it in a fair spirit and without
malice. A public officer is subject to
criticism, and in the discussion of their
acts good faith is alone required from
newspapers and persons who indulge in
such discussion. The law of implied
malice does not obtain in such case. This
is the only sensible view Of the law. A
newspaper should use discretion and
precaution in its publications, but it can
not wait to absolutely verify every state
ment, else it would never publish any

The fellow Truman, who was acquit-
ted OF stealing Bookmaker Riley's box at
Lexington last week, boosted after his re-
lease that he did steal it, but was too
smart to permit it to be proved on him.
The law cannot 90 further with the
scoundrel, because there is provision
against putting man in jeopardy twice
for the same offense, but the case pre-
sents some very plausible features for

The House Committee on Pensions
after expressing its opposition TO large
pensions TO widows, reported favorably

on the ground that congress can not
well refuse such action after Civ

but it will never be corrected as long as
the public is represented by lot OF
toadies ever ready to pander to the sol.

lr is stated on undeniabe authority
that Harrison has rendered the chief po-
sition in his cabinet to Blaine, who has
accepted it. This is as expected and pre-
dicted. The convention which nomina-
ted Harrison was dstinctively a Blaine
convention. which would have nomina-
ted him on the first ballot bnt for his re-
iterated refusal to accept the nomination
under any conditions. 1t is but natural,
therefore, that Blaine should have first
choice of the pie in an administration in
which he will be the the power behind

THE citizens Of the delectable locality
in Jessamine county, known as Troy,
are revealing in scandal sensation that
must be very gratifying to the mongers
thereabcuts. A wealthy old farmer,
VIM. Mcdonald, has highly respecta-
ble tenant named White, who is the pos
SCISSOR of a daughter, Miss Annie, whose
budding lovelincss is the envy of the en-
tire community. Old man Mcdonald al
so has a son, Clinton, who although a
deacon in the church, ignored the Bibli-
cal Injunction and looked upon the beau
tiful girl with longing eyes. She recip-
rocated his love advances and in an UNI
guarded moment fell from woman's high
pedestal The inevitable result OF the
sin followed and then the father discov-
ering with horror that his precious
daughter would soon become mother,
with no one to call her wife, forced from
her confession which caused him to go
cunning Immediately for the youthful
deacon. Looking into the eye of the in
furiated father and down the barrels of
the murderous weapon, Clinton promis-
ed all manner of reparation, and plead
ing for mercy, begged to be allowed to
marry the girl. His request was granted
and the time fixed for its consummation,
but when it arrived Clinton had igno-
fed the country, leaving his
victim to pass through the terrible or
Zeal that awaits her, with no one tosym-
pathize with nor shield her from scorn.
A suit for bastardy has been entered and

THE threat OF Senator Riddleberger, the
ADVANTAGEOUS Virginian, to resign and
give Gov. Hill chance to appoint a
democrat in his place, which would give
the Senate TO the democrats, is no doubt
done to bring his party, which has snubb-
ed and ostracised him, to its senses. The

Arms when he became obstreperous the

to lose it in this way and it goes without
