For Congress
WILLIAM 7. ELLIS,
of Daveiss County.
ELLIS WAlK-OvER.

From the day that Mr.. Mckenzie
decided not to run for Congress, there
has never been any doubt that Capt.
Ellis would succeed himself. With
Mckenzie on the track there would
have been red hot fight, but the OPP
position Capt. Ellis has had oil sum
rer was not of a character to endan-
ger his success in the least. AT first
amusing, it finally became annoying
by reason of the persistence displayed
in attacking his record in Congress
upon the most fimsy pretexts, and 1t
finally became necessary for Capt.
Ellis to come home for few days and
correct some of the false impressions
created by his adversary. He came
last week and made few speeches in
Henderson and Webster counties.
AT one or two of these MIR. Givens
met him and spoke his piece. This
gave Capt. Ellis an opportunity to
dispose of his adversary and he devo-
ted about ten minutes of his speech
to Mr.. Givens, ,and,as predicted by the
KENrucKIAN some time ago, the effect
was that about two or three doses
were all Mr.. Givens could stand. His
pretensions were utterly crushed and
his lofty ambition cherished from
childhood" was given hopeless sell
back. He quickly returned home and
on Friday Withdrew from the race,
leaving Capt. Ellis clear track. In
doing this Mr.. Giyens has acted wise
ly and commercially. He is bright,
well balanced young man, a splendid
journalist and a clever ,companionable
gentleman, but he is hardly rips
enough to be pulled for a congressman
With possibly one exception, the Sec
ond district has not been in the habi
of sending light-weights intellectually
to Congress. We have sent men whf
had brains and who could talk, and we
have such man now representing
the district. This being the case
there was no need Of a change, espec-
tally when Capt. Ellis was entitled tc
an endorsement. He has stood faith
fully at his post for nine months and
upon no important measure has failed
TO be on hand and vote. At least one
Democrat lost his seat by the absence
of Democratic members, but Capt
Ellis has never been absent when his
vote was needed. He has made
speeches UPON both the tariff and sill
yer questions that attracted the atten-
ton of the country and has shown
that he not only has brains but can
talk ably, fuently and eloquently.
1t would have been graceful and
proper for such representative to
have been given an endorsement with
out any opposition whatever. But Mr.
Givens saw fit to oppose him and an
expensive and useless primary election
was called. This action should now
be undone and the District Commit
tee should be called together at once
and Capt. Ellis declared the party
nominee. The people are tired oil
elections and should be given a rest
until November. With but one can
didate, the primary is no longer nee
cessary and since Capt. Ellis is to
succeed himself without contest the
KENrUcKIAN to-day anticipates his for
NAL nomination and places his name
at the head of its columns.

PRESTO. CHANGED
The Old Hands Go Out and the New
County Officers Step In.

The Old Hands Go Out and the New
County Officers Step In.
Yesterday a new set of county Of
ficers were sworn in and the "Court
House Clique" is now composed of en-
tirely new material.
Judge Thos. ]. Morrow, Dem, sue
ceeds Judge W. P. Winfree, Dem,
who has held the Office Of county
Judge for two terms of four years
each. He leaves the office with the
respect and good opinion of all and
returns to the practice of the law and
the prosecution of his insurance bus
mess as member of the firm of Long,
Winfree & Kelly.
Judge Morrow is likewise lawyer,
but recently has engaged in farming
near the city. He formerly represented
Caldwell county in the Legislature,
He has lived in this county for about
ten years.
Mr.. John W. Payne, DEM, retires
from the office Of County Attorney in
favor of Mr.. Larkin T. Brasher, also
a Democrat. Mr.. Brasher has rep
resented this county in the Legisla-
ture for one term and made the race
for the Senate against John Feland,
Sr. He defeated John Feland, Jr. in
the last race, SO his honors are even
with the Feland family.
Maj. John w. Breathitt, the old
war-horse OF Republicanism in the
surrenders his Office for the
time being to Mr.. Jno. z. Prowse, of
the same political faith, who is the
only Republican who was saved from
the wreck and who holds his Office by
the slender majority of 8 votes and
contest for those. Mr.. Prowse retains
Harvey Breathitt as deputy and his
son, Frank Prowse, succeeds Jno. L.
as copyist.
Mr.. Dennis r. Perry, Dem, took
the oath of office as Assessor, succeed
ing NJ. A. Littlefeld, Rep, who will
qualify next June as Justice of the
Peace in the Union School House

qualified and will, no doubt, make
model official.

long and successful experience, sup

the Office of Superintendent of County |
Schools.

he has added new deputy in the
person of Mr.. c. A. Brasher, late of |
CioEton.
Mr.. Geo. w. Long, Dem, succeeds
himself as jailer for four wears more.
Mr.. ID. 7. Rives was elected County
Surveyor at the August election as
Democrat. This Office is of but little
value in this county and Mr.. Riyes
will remain at his home in the country.
DR.. j. L. Dulin, coroner by appoint
ment, qualified for full term.
Col. NJ. ID. Brown also qualified Ms
City Judge for four years aud will
dispense justice TO evil-doers and
law-breakers in the City Court. lie

too succeeds Republican, Judge j.
c. Brasher.

Their Introduction Into Chicago Causes
| JIuss.
lBy telegraph 10 the Dispatch. J


CHICAGO. January A serious conflict
of authority is threatened between the
State and municipal authorities in this
city. few days ago, under the orders of
the State Board of Livestock Commits
sioners, a lot of "lumpy- jawed cattle were
shipped from Peoria to this city TO be kill
ed and put into tanks to be turned into
fertilizers. The officers OF the city Board
Of Health reported that from the manner
i'll which the cattle were handled they sus-
pected plan was on foot to slaughter and
sell them for beef. They succeeded in
preventing any such contamination.
Yesterday the Livestock Commissioners
made a report on the subject to the Gov
ernor. citing the State law to show that
they were authorized to do as they had
done. To-day Commissioner Wick
ersham laid the matter before Mayor Gre
ger, and asked for instructions. The
Mayor gave him orders of most positive
character to prevent all diseased cattle
from being brought into the city on any
pretext whatever, even if IL should become
necessary to violate the letter of the law in
order TO do so. He instructed the Health
Commissioner that if the State officers
should attempt to bring any more lumpy-
iawed cattle he should prevent it at all
hazards. and assured him that he should
have the assistance of the entire police
force of Chicago to carry out his orders If
