The State Central Committee meets
in Lexington tonight to consider
plans for organizing this state. Chair
man Afford suggests that the county
committees shall be re-orgsnized and
invigorated with fresh blood; also
that Democratic clubs be formed so
as to develop enthusiasm all along
the line and once more regain our
lost majority of 10000. Both of these
plans are excellent. There is one
thing, however, to be considered
there can never be high state of ell
thusiasm developed in state with a
heavy majority either way, and when
the gentlemen who undertake this
work encounter the current of cool
Indifference, they should not be dis
couraged, for it is the natural thing
under the circumstances.
But not merely in the line of bon
fires and barbecues are these clubs to
be useful, they have deeper signifi-
canoe. 1t is going to take a great
deal of money TO make thorough
defense of Democratic doctrines in
Indiana, New York and the other
doubtful states. While we are album
dainty blessed by a large msjority,
the people of Kentucky should feel
the importance of this mission work.
These Democratic clubs will afford
excellent facilities for disbursing the
donations of the faithful, and, in this
respect, will be of untold value in the
contest.

cERULEAN SPRINGS, KY.

After storm there is always a
calm, and on this quiet, lovely day,
I thought a good time TO write you a
little of the opening ball. 1t is ira
ditional fact that Cerulean never had
an opening ball without rain. Last
Friday at p. m. il commenced to
rain, and a more disagreeable even
ing | think l never saw. 1t looked
| like failure for awhile for an open
ing ball. AT 6 p. m, however, the
first train came in with a fair num-
Der and before they had supper and
put away, the excursion train from
GAINESVILLE pulled in at the union de-
pot and the ball was then an assured
success. Shortly afterward the
Princeton train came and unloaded
her cargo of grace and beauty while
Hopkinsville delegates came semi-oc-
casionally with the same kind of a
cargo. BY this time Cerulean
Springs wore an aspect of former
years. The hotel was lighted with
its hundred of lights, The balconies
we're swarming with young men and
lovely ladies'. Over two hundred
people assembled here in less than
three hours. At ten O'Clock the ele-
giant spacious new dining room was
cleared of the tables, chairs lined the
walls around, the chandeliers threw
forth their radient light, the strains
from the band called the dancers
forth, and it was not long before
those present forgot the cares and
troubles of this world. l could not,
however, help feeling little sad
while viewing that beautifully light
ed room and seeing the young men
audladies in full party dress, to look
down toward the old ball room,
where few years ago such pleasant
dances we used to have, to see il
wrapped in solemn darkness, al
alone and forgotten. 1t seemed tina
pleasant memories of the past would
not let themselves be crowded out by
