ABOUT the silliest thing iu the werld,
says the Salt Lake Tribune, is the
studied attempt to make silver a par.
tssAn question and to charge its de.
nonstization upon the Republican
party aud the failure 10 restore II to
this or that party. Neither party
knew when silver was demonetlzed,
both parties have since refused to right
tho wrong then committed. This dis
ciplinsd creditor class have thus far
been able 10 meet and turn back all
the efforts Of the debtor class which
includes all the producers Of the coun.
try. The conflict has been steady for
IA years. Republican and Democrat
In the West have insisted on the de-
naad for Justice; Republican and
Democrat In the East have unitsd to
make perpetual the injustice, and it is
no more a party question than WAS the

A$5O,OOO
Damage Suit Is Threatened
By the Blue Grass Blade Editor
Against the Publishers Of
Kentuckian- Citizen
and q Corr es-
pOndent of
the Paper

The Kentuckian-Citizen of
Wednesday contained an article
written by a member of the Paris
Christian church in reply to an
article that appeared in the Blue
Grass Blade about that church.
The editor, Mr.. Moore informed
the Enterprise on Saturday, that
he was thinking of bringing suit
against the publishers ofthe paper,
and the correspondent, placing his
damages at $50, 900 for that por-
ton of the article stating that he
had "been an inmate of the Luna
tie Aaylum." His usual even tenn
per seemed TO be fufned by the
article which he said was calcu-
lated to do greater damage to a
man publishing a moral and in
tellectual paper like the Blade,
than an ordinary paper.-George-

In every place where 1 have
left the blanks the name of the
writer of that libelous article is
written; and, of course, for all
practical purposes, except for law,
/ know who it is.
That fellow who wrote that
"Raving Lunatic" piece has gotten
himself into the same fix that my
friend Judge "Keen," who was
going to kill me not long ago, has
done, and they wont let up on this
new fellow, from all over the
United States for months.
1 reckon if good Christian
Judge "Keen," as that Lexington
lady calls him, has had any
speciality" in his prayers lately,
he has prayed that something
might happen that would switch
off these Blue Grass Blade fiends
on to some other fellow, and /
sorter hope his prayers have been
answered by this Paris ram getting
his horns tangled in the bushes,
SO that the people will now go for
him as sacrifice, in place of the
ermined Isaac, who, as an anony-
nous lamb has so long lain like a
Prometheus bound, in perpetual
immOlation upon the altar OF the
Blue Grass Blade. with these Pro-
hibition eagles, from all over the
United States, gnawing at his giz-
zard. l have a whole lot of letters
about Judge "Keen" yet to be
printed, and some of them are
dandies. Idon't want to be hard
on the Judge, and if he win Just
sign one of these Prohibition
"milliOn vote pledges" | will keep
the boys off of him.
As an advertising medium the
Blade seems to be a kind of a
double back action boomerang.
IT a man wants to be heard about
by more people than ever heard
about Jim Blaine, just let him give
me an order never to let his name
go into the Blade. Some time be-
fore the episode when there was
newspaper talk of gore and blood
on the moon there had been some
mention, in some paper. of the
Judges name III connection with
the Presidency of the United
States.
He never can make the race as
"dark horse" now. Too many
people know his "reecord."
This Paris anonymous fellow, re-
minds me of picture l saw the
other day in the "Truth Seeker -
The Pope was represented as a
big turtle with his head drawn
into his shell. Across the shell
was written Vatican" A boy
called "YOung Italy" was burning
the papal turtles tail with chunk
of fire, to make him stick his head
out, and King Humberto was
standing with fish gig to spear
him through the head as soon as
he should poke it out.

The drinking habit must go.
Whenever a habit gets into such
disfavor that a Kentucky politician
wants to take an editors life for
saying he 'woutd take drink

man feels that it is a cause for a
suit for damages tor publishing the
charge that be was drunk, it is
evident that things are wonder
fully changed for the better.
Railroads, banks and business
houses generally are closing their

when all who would be considered

of the fact that / am a straight

to wash without fading. If Ma
hometahism is for Prohibition, and
the church is in an "ungodly

to be the case, taking as an in
stance that "Christian" church at
Paris, Kentucky, then I am for
Mahometanism every time by a
large majority, and want to pull
dow the cross and put up the cres-
cent on every church in America.
There is not man in. America
who has a more exalted estimate
of the life and character and life
work of Jesus of Nazareth than l
have; but the organization called
"the church." that pretends to
represent the views and purpose
of Jesus, is barely bearable even
if there were no suspicion of its

s"Christian" church at Paris, Ken
lucky, as an organized league
with the whisky traffic, and l be-
lieve that there are hundreds or
thousands of such churches all

recognized fact that the leaders OF

The Journal prints the name of
that Judge that was going to kill
me if l put his name in my paper;
but you better bet | am not going
to do it, because he told me he
was "a member of the church,
and it is his Christian duty to do
what he says he is going to do.
But why he don't go around and
kill some of these other editors
that have the audaci0us impu-
dence to put in his name, is what |
can't understand; and then | won
der that these Lexington papers
that so much applauded the
Judges course do not resent what
these other papers are saying.
You can see that the Prohibi-
ton idea is creeping up pretty
close to Lexington. The Jessa-
mine journal is published within
twelve miles of Lexington and is
counted true blue Democratic
paper: -.
There is not a newspaper in
Lexington that would dare to say
"The drinking habit must go. "
and they would not dare to make
that kind of an allusiou to that
Judge and to that man who is go
ing to sue me for libel. The Re-
publican. Leader that represents
ltheFsfty fisat attsas-1-cords-sym-
pathy" for temperance would nc
more dare to do it than the Dem
ocratic paper would. But just as
sure as you are foot high things
are "wonderfully changed" some
how.
Two years ago they kept 10
Ironjaw's Indian whisky story in
stereotype and used to print it
every six weeks. One of the best
Democratic jokes about town was
how Joseph got drunk and pnked
all over the capitol at Washing
ton, and everybody smiled audibly
when Joseph drove over that rock
and broke his arm, and the Globe
Democrat printed how Carlisle
got so drunk that he fell down
coming to Beck's funeral, and the
Latonia races had a big advertise
ment with Carlise, Blackburn,
Knott and Roche the distiller sit
ting around a barrel of whisky;
but if you want to take the lead
ing role in a coroner's inquest now
you just iusinuate that any Lex
ington politician would take any
kind of a stimulant stronger than
lemonade or sweet cider.
Verify, "the times have changed
and we are changed with them."

DEAR FRIEND MooRE-fT did not
happen to see the Blade tha ex-
coriated the Christian church at
Paris, but a clipping Written in
reply signed ga member, came
into my hands this morning.
Now l do not desire to enter
into, or in any way engage in the
fusilade, but if I happen to have a
little surplus thunder, and it costs
neither of us anything to use it,
why not?
"Member" says "Paris is the
only precinct in the county with
cut temperance laws, and we
made magnificent fight here a
few years ago for local option,
but were out voted, as friends of
temperance generally are.''
Now / happen to know some
thing in regard to this "magnifi-
cent fight"
1 was very sick at the time it
occurred, or l should haze been
in the fight, trying to Jet ehe
Christian and moral cityzehs OF
Paris to vote for the destruction
of the Shiny serpent that has al
ready left it's trail in many Of their
homes, causing indiscribable suf
ferings and debauching thsyouth,
and corrupting the mo,als OF
many, without the least re hrd to
station in life.
But, to do what / 3uld, !
made inquiry as to who could
get to distribute 500 Prohibition
'..Bombs" (speeches by leading
Prohibitionists of the natidp) and.
as l thought a minister myre apt
o work them to advantage, l in
quired about Bro. SweenV, and
was astonished when told by a
member Of his congregatidp that
he would take no part whatever
in the election, and advised his
brethren to the same cours& So
sent the Bombs to young
Methodist minister nambep Redd
as he was the only Prohibition
preacher in Paris, that could
hear of at that time.
When the election cami these
1900 members, that "Member'
boastingly sets up as the vefy per-
sonification of Christianity were
well equipped for staying al home,
or for absenting themselvea from
the polls, and local option Was de-
feated.
l never was very much for To-
cal option, but / felt that Paris
won, Bourbon would havd county
Prohibition, which is little bet
ter than local option. But now
she has to wait for national Prohi-
| bition.
Then l venture to say bat il
they will give halt the $4,000
that was given to the University
at Lexington, to the causeiof Pro.
hibition, it would educate IS many
