WHAT OF IT.

What Of it, is the question that is con.
fdently asked by republicans to-day.
What does it signify that Carter and his
silver record have been expressly and
severely repudiated and disowned by the
people of this state? OF what conse-
quence is it that political double-dealing
and selfish, personal ambitions have
been relegated by the voters Of Montana
to the obscurity il which they may, per-
haps, be practiced with safety and i'm
punity? Why should republicans hest
tate because Quay has been condemned,
as he admits, by the farmers and labor
ers Of the populous state, which he
attempted to run in accordance with his
notoriously infamous methods? What
difference does it make that Harrison
himself should have voted in con-
temptible minority in his own state Of
Indiana? Why falter because Mckinley
has met defeat at the hands of the toll
ersy whose wages he sacrificed at the
bidding OF republican subsidizers? Who
cares that the principles Of honesty and
respect for labor and its rights have for
the time gotten the upper hand? What
OF that a popular tide of disapproval
has swept from the Atlantic to the Pa
chic coast, and engulfed republicans and
their party measures in its depths?
All this, we are asked to believe, mat
ters nothing. 1t is bagatelle of the
slightest consequence. Its influence
upon the republican party is to to alb
solutely nil. It's newspaper organs are
ready to refit the obsolete muz.le-lo leaders
that the people have spiked for them
and begin the same struggle all ovel
again. In that case, their grit is more
to be commended than their politica
sagacity. They are still the party Of tht
high tariff, the party that will plundel
the many for the benefit Of the few
That need not be wondered at. It Is al
absolute necessity, il they are to hav,
their forces in the field at all. The re
publican party attaches no weight t.
the votes Of honest labor. They ar
very well in their way. 1t il

So it seems, according to the journal,
that the great mass OF American people
who voted the democratic ticket were
wrong, and the trail blazer, and Selig-
man, White, Bernard and associates
were right. This may be comforting
reflection for the gentlemen named, but
the fact remains that they are in the
vas; minority.

HALL OF FOREST LODGE, No. 90S, !
A. F. IAN.
WHEREAS, Death has entered oul
midst and stricken down Bro. John T,
Turner, one who has been for many
years a loved and honored member OF
our Order. In this it has robbed us
of one who was the soul OF honor and
whose inAexible integrity won for him
the respect and confidence Of all; one
who elevated and adorned the robe he
wore, and was fit type to follow;
one who was cast in the mold Of
natures noblest and was a true man,
a constant friend and upright Mason.
Its black pail has cast gloom over
his family and friends which time,
the tomb builder, alone can dispel.
Therefore, Be it resolved by Forest
Lodge, No sos, A. F. & A. NJ. that in
the death of Bro. Turner the COM
munity has lost an honored and use
full citizen, society one Of its brightest
lights, the impress Of whose noble
character will long be felt in the hearts
OF his brethren.
Resolved, That we trust that he
who is the father 10 the fatherless
may shield and protect the family Of
our deceased brother, and pour out
the balm of his divine consolation up
on their stricken hearts and temper
this blow to their strength.
Resolved, That we wear the usual
badge of mourning for thirty days,
and that copy of these resolutions
be sent to the family OF the deceased
and copy be spread upon our min

The redistricting OF Hopkinsville
may be a good thing for that town,
but it is gerrymander nevertheless.
The fact, also, that it is Democratic
bill, and was passed during the alb
sence of the Republican member from
Christian county, does not make the
bill any more honest-looking on its
surface.-Louisville Post.
The bill does not redistrict Hopkins
vile, but divides the city into wards
for the first time, although the people
voted for the ward system years ago.
Ii was a Democratic bill simply be-
cause Republican Councils refused to
divide the city, which is Democratic
in four-ffths of its territory. The bill
passed is fair and honest division
according to area, property and popu-
lation. The Court House ward ap-
pears smaller on the map, but it must
be remembered it is in the center Of
the business cection Of the city and
contains as much taxable property as
any other ward and fair proper
ton OF voters. II there had been any
attempt or desire to gerrymander, the
city could nave been divided into ten
wards with eight of them Democratic.
As it is the Republicans are so well
satisfied with the division that they
concede only two wards to the Dem
ocrats. Mr.. Clark, the member from
Christian, was in Frankfort and work
ed to defeat the bill, but knowing his
opposition would be useless in the
House he was not present; but he was
in Frankfort and did not return home
until after the bill had been passed.
The Post has not stated single fact
in its paragraph and has attempted to
enlighten its readers upon o subject
II knows nothing about. 4
