at large a serious doubt of the power
of the law to protect them from the
outrages of the lawless classes. We
have heard the charge made that if
the individuals who compose this
court of last resort cannot find tech
nicality that will justify a reversal of
verdict, they will even go so far as
TO sign petition to the chief execu-
tive for the cemmutation Of the sem
tencc or for a pardon. We know
nothing about the grounds upon which
the Wiggington cases were reversed.
1t may be in these cases that deep in
justice would have been worked if
the decision had been otherwise. But
be this as it may, the idea is abroad
among the people that the members of
this court are imbued with a maudlin
sentimentality that causes them to
shrink from visiting crime with its
proper punishment, and this idea is
fast bringing this, should be, august
tribunal into contempt.

At Work Again.

The farmers met at Carlisle last
July and organized an insurance COM
pany for isolated property only. The
territory occupied by this company is
Bourbon and adjoining counties, hence
includes this county. While they
have as yet done no work here. they
are growing rapidly in Nicholas and
Bath counties. They now have about
three hundred thousand dollars in
surance. We understand that Cole
Templeman, the President of the Al
lance in Nicholas county, will soon
go to work among the farmers in
these parts. This company is of same
nature as the company that has been
in operation in Fleming county for
sixteen years, and they have paid on
an average during that time about
SLIGO per $1,000, and carry insurance
against fire, lightning and wind storm
of any description. This is less than
one-fifth of what we are paying for
fire only, and when we remember
that they pay all man carries, it is
no wonder the farmers are favoring
the company.

SENATOR McCREARY
Tells the Truth About Mr.. Cleveland

Congressman McCreary is quoted as
giving the following pointers on the
political outlook:
81 know the people of Kentucky
thoroughly, and am frank to say the
masses are devoted to Mr.. Cleveland.
He brought the tariff the one great
issue--to the front, and there it still is
despite the efforts of Mckinley and
Sherman to evade it and substitute
something else. Look at his enor-
nous majority of the popular vote in
1884. That shows that the people are
on the side Of Democracy, and only
wish we could elect our President by
a direct vote. Look at the press of
the country. The big papers are
nearly all on the Democratic side.
Again look at the colleges and see
how seventy-five per cent. of the fac
ulties inculcate Democratic principles
among the rising generation. But to
return to Cleveland. My earnest
wish is that the people of his own
State may come before the convention
urging his name. If they do, his
nomination will be by reclamation.
He won his way to the hearts of his
people by his ability, his sterling man
hood, and his great service in making
tariff reform the shibboleth of his
party.
Who do think will head the ticket
for the opposition? Harrison, beyond
any doubt. If Blaine had any idea of
running, he would not have stayed so
long in the Cabinet. This thing of
making Presidential race is no holi-
day affair. The Secretary Of State
knows this, and with the big store of
experience thus acquired, he will new
er enter the list again. In the first
place, he is too bright a man not to
know he would likely incur defeat,
and, secondly, he is physically unable
to plunge into such conflict. But it
matters not, in my opinion, on whom
the choice may fall. l am sanguine
our party will be victorious. The
course of the incoming Congress will
be closely watched by the people, but
I have no fears but that it will gain
public appreciation.
AS TO the Speakership you might
put the names of all the leading can
didates in hat and draw one at ran
dom, and the selection would be
happy one: They are all good men.
Many friends have expressed desire
that 1 should be a candidate for the
Speakership, but as Kentucky has
been honored in this once, I will not
allow my nape to be presented"

Some time since several clerks in
Commissioner Raum's department,
charged that Raum's son was levying
blackmail on the clerks by pretending
to use his influence to secure promo
tons for monetary considerations.
A few days ago Raum demanded the
resignation of these clerks, but now it
transpires that Secretary Noble pro-
poses to stand by the subordinates,
and it seems probable that the chief
will have to get out. The stencil is
becoming too strong for even Harri-
son administration to endure longer.

Remarkable: Rescue.

Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield

caught cold, which settled on hei

by her family physician, but grew
worse. He told her she was hope
less victim of consumption and that
no medicine could cure her. Her
druggist suggested DR.. Kings New
Discovery for Consumption; she
bought bottle and to her delight
found herself benefited from first dose.
She continued its use and after taking
ten bottles, found herself sound and
well, now does her own Homework

The Court of Appeals reversed all
the Wiggington cases on Saturday
and sent them back for a new trial
The people OF the county hoped they
were rid of these ugly cases. There
was trouble enough apprehended, and
barely averted, before they came to
trial, for these wretches were the
cause of grave fears that some hot
headed ones among our people would
succeed in taking the law into our
own hands, and thus proclaim to the
world the inefliciency Of the judicial
machinery to punish crime. Now the
Court of Appeals has sent these cases
back, and all the old trouble may be
reopened. 1t looks to the people of
the State as if the members of this
tribunal are willing to leave no stone
unturned, to hunt up a technicality,
with which to furnish means of es-
cape for the perpetrators of the most
damnable crimes that blot the fair
name Of our commonwealth. The
more diabolical and outrageous the
crime the surer the perpetrator is to
be furnished a loophole of escape.
The cases in point were tried by jury
of disinterested and intelligent men,
brought from another county, who
gave the accused an impartial trial,
and rendered verdict in accordance
with the facts presented, and now the
higher court reverses that verdict.
The outside world points the finger
of scorn at Kentucky's murderous rec
ord, and even the members of this
learned court throw up their hands in
holy horror at the oft repeated exhibit
tons of mob law, to which an eXas-
perated people are finally driven.
They cannot be made to see that the
eagerness, with which they
seize on a real or imaginary flaw, in
the instructions of the lower court, as
an excuse for ordering new trial,
has the two-fold effect of giving the
murderer contempt for the law and
dignity of the commonwealth, and Of
in the minds of the people

Judge A. L. Cole, of the Maysville
district, passed through our city on
Tuesday last on his way to the Hazel
Green fair, and was looking in adj
mirable health and spirits, and full of
energy and dash. By the way, the
Judge is what is known as "hustler
from away back" and few have been
so success in their political aspirations
as he, although the Judge has had
many a tilt with our Republican
brethren, still he has never been de-
teated for any office that he solicited
from the people. He redeemed his
judicial district in 1850, defeating the
Hon. Geo. M. Thomas, who is one of
the most astute Republican politicians
in the State. The Judge is an accom-
plished and polite gentleman, fine
lawyer, first-class judge, and makes
warm and enthusiastic friends
wherever he goes; he is also a true
and tried Democrat, and should he be
nominated as our standard bearer in
the coming race for Appellate Judge,
no stragglers from the Democratic
line will be found when the day of
battle arrives, but every man will be
in his place, and the Democratic bat
tallions will move forward in solid
columns with irresistible force, and
plant our standard Oh the Republican
ramparts, and compel an uncondi-
tional surrender of the enemy.

LlNcoLN'S VISION.
[To BE coNTINUED,

His Prophetic View of the Condition OF
the New South.
Once, as Mr.. Lincoln lay upon his
favoite lounge In the Registers office,
whilst the Register and his messenger
were engaged In their work, and, as he
liked them to do, paying no attention
to him, he broke into amagnifcent OUT
burst-a word-painting Of what the
South would be when the war was over,
slavery destroyed, and she had had an
opportunity to develop her resources
under the benignant influence of peace.
Twenty years and more afterward this
scene flashed upon my memory with the
vividness OF an electric light as recog-
nized the word-picture Of Mr.. Lincoln
in the following words OF welcome by
an eloquent Southern % q Northern
delegation: "You are standing" he
said, "at this moment in the gateway
that leads to the South. The wealth
that is there, no longer hidden from
human eyes, flashes in your very faces.
You can smell the roses Of q new
hope that fills the air. You can
hear the heart beats of progress that
come as upon the wings of Heaven.
You can reach forth your hands and
almost clutch the gold that the sun
rains down with his beams as he takes
his daily journey between the coal
mine and the cotton field; the high
lands Of wood and iron, Of marble and
granite; the lowlands of tobacco, of
sugar and rice, Of corn and kline, of wine,
milk and honey" Such was the picture
Of the South presented 10 the eye Of
Mr.. Lincoln's faith.
| have written this account largely
from personal knowledge; from what l
myself saw and heard. II has been the
regret of my subsequent life Tint / did
not at the time know how great man
Mr.. Lincoln was, that did not at the
time write out and preserve an account
Of many other things said and done by
him. This occurrence was an excep-
tion. / felt at the time that Mr.. Lin
coin was revealing himself TO me in q
new and elevated character, and l
undertook to record the words in which
that revelation was made.-L. L. Chit
