KENrrCKY's GRAND SCRAMBLE.
Carlisle Leads. with McCreary. Knott,
Lindsay 1T Al. Well Up.

LOUISVILLE. KY. May little Sen
atorial contest has gone forward brisk
ly to-dcy. EX-CongrcSSman Mckenzie
reached Frankfort late last night. and
tonight formally announced himself.
Aside from this. there is little new as
TO candidates or estimates of strength
on the first ballot in the Democratic
caucus Monday night. 1t is clearly
understood that no election will be made
until the caucus nOminatcS. All agree
that Carlisle will have big lead Oh the
first ballot and the rest of the votes will
be pretty evenly divided between Knott,
McCrcary. Mckenzie, Buckncr, Lindsay
and Reeves.
THE CARLISLE TACTICS.
CarliSlc'S friends are aggressive. and
want To push the contest 10 "A conclusion
the first night. They hardly hope their
chief can be stronger by 4 long waiting
fight. On the other hand, all the others
believe they will do better by waiting.
and they will be- able to prevent a
nomination at once. Gov. Buckncr has
developed great strength. and his friends
believe when the final test comes it will
be between him and Carlisle. The eau
Gus will probably refuse to adopt the
rules Of dropping candidates with the
first vote. Only two ballots will be- ta-
ken Monday night and an adjournment
will be had till Tuesday night and 50 on
till 4 nomination is made.

TIE rARrf nERATE.

In the House the tariff debate is TO
continue all of this week. 1t will be-
under what is known as the iive-minute
rule. and every member who desires TO
talk. and who was not able to partici-
pate in the general debate, will be given
the opportunity to state his views
briefly. Probably it will be- necessary
to adopt a rule to fix the length Of de-
bate. and the attempt To do this may
arouse some resistance.

The Challenge to Florida.

Onmv return to California [ found that
the challenge [ had issued to Florida for
o connective exhibit of fruits at the
Worlds Fair had been extensively pub
lished and circulated. 1t was all well
enough as far as it was correct. My chal-
lenge to Commissioner Heirst, OF Florida,
has reference to citrus fruits only, and it
could not include more than citrus fruits,
without putting one Or the other State at
a very great disadvantage; for instance
in deciduous fruits, California could far
surpass Florida, as in tropical fruits
Florida could surpass California; but, as
to citrus fruits, both California and Flor
ida are claiming the supremacy. Now,
let us have real, live, genuine, honor
able competition at the Worlds Fair for
citrus fruits, and it will do both States
good. for certainly Florida and California
are the leading citrus fruit producing
States. Commissioner Heirst, to whom
the challenge was issued, is an elegant
gentleman, and will look out for Flori-
da's interests. California is my home
and [ will do all can to assist our own
commissioners in furthering California's
interests at the Worlds Fair.-Mark l..
Mcdonald, Worlds Fair Commissioner.

"Why do they leave?" asks Mr.. PipOn
We reply by asking "Why do people do
many foolish things that are not good
for them? Why do they overeat, over
sleep, drink whisky, eat opium etc."
Many of the difficulties which he men
tions, such as want of servants, scarcity
OF fresh provisions, etc., will in time be

all of the good things of life to be show

Mr.. Germans Black Flag.

Very general surprise has been
manifested at the speech of Senator
German in the course of which he
expressed his opposition to the Aus.
traIian ballot system. saying that its
adoption in Maryland would be
equivalent to sending the Democratic
party TO the rear.
If there ever was party pledged
to the principle OF election-law re-
form. it is the Democracy of Mary
land. The pledges on that subject
were embodied in every series of res
OlutiOns adopted by State, city and
county organizations during the last
campaign. Furthermore. the kind
of'reform agreed upon was exactly
the sort that Is provided for by the
Australian ballot system, which Mr..
German has formally and contemptu-
ously repudiated.
If it be true that the adoption OF
such a system in Maryland would
"send the Democratic party to the
rear" then Senator German has
practically confessed that his party
is not held in power in this State by
fair, free and untrammeIed vote of
the people. If this be a truthful state.
ment of our political condition at the
present time. it furnishes an unan-
swerable argument in favor of such
changes as may he brought about by
fair election and an honest count of
the votes.-BQHo. Herald.

The Present Epidemic.

quiet and absence of worry will do
much to moderate the effects of the
Influenza"
The medical authorities and health
authorities here are struggling hard
to keep back the facts about the
spread of the epidemic. The death
rate has increased by 1000, and while

Prot. DeYoe's Predictions.

Prof. A. ]. Devoe, the well.known
HacKensack, ". j.. meteorologist.
gives his Interpretation of :he weather
problem as follows:
First, the cause of the unusual mild
weather during December is due to
the fact that the storm centres have
passed along the extreme northern
part of the United States, causing
warm equatorial curr .nts to descend
in the Middle Atlantic States. There
are always two storm bets moving
from west to east between the equa.
tor and North pole, and during the
month of December there was no
heavy storm over the South Atlantic
States. But the conditions have
changed and during the month Of
January the storm centres will pass
over the Gulf of Mexico and South
Atlantic States, and there will be u
great change in the temperature and
the rains will he turned into snow.

Their winters two hundred years ago

CAUSE OF THE MILD WINTER

CAUSE OF THE MILD WINTER
WEATHER.-In connection with the
subject of the present mild winter
weather, it may not be out of place
to say that the chief of the signal SER
vice. Gen. Greedy, gives very inter
esting explanation of the peculiar
atmospheric conditions which have
made this winter remarkable oyer so
great an extent of our country. The
ercentriciiy of the weather j. not due,
he holds, to any permanent change
in the American winter climate. or
to any change in the course of the
gulf stream. AbnOrmally high tenn
perature has prevailed all over the
country, the average being abnut ten
degrees. Cincinnati with this excess
of heat there has been marked de-
crease in the rainfall in most parts Of
the United States during the past six
weeks. High temperature and lack
f rainfall were, therefore, wide-
spread, for which Gen. Greedy says
there must he some far reaching
cause. This Cause he discovers in
great storms passing across the con-
tinent from west to east and north of
the f0rtieth parallel of latitude and
beyond the great lakes. The pas.
sage of these storms" he says, Tin
the direction of the Gulf of St. Law
renee caused steady current Of air
from the south and southwest across
the continent toward the disturbed
areas in Canada" He adds: 1.-THE
December winds blow usually from
the north and northwest. and are
much colder. of course, than currents
from lower ATTITUDES. The general
circulation being from parts of the
country least affected by rainfall. the
winds were not only warm. but dry,
and all conditions consequently were
favorable tn high temperatures up rs
far as the Canadian border.
