GOV. BROWN AT KINGSTON.
He is Warmly Received at the South
County Fair.
ESPECIAL TO THE sEws.i

KINGSTON. r. l., Sept. 14.-This Is the
great day of the Washington County fair
for 1892. and though 1t rains at intervals
the crowds within the fair grounds are
immense for Gov. ID. Russell Brown aud
staff are the guests Of the association.
The chief executive was warmly receiv ed
and was much interested In the various
exhibits and events of the day. Part Of
the races are postponed owing to the con-
dtion of the track and will be finished to-
morrow morning IL the weather permits.
About 1900 people v ere on the grounds
at noon yesterday. The races were the
principal attraction OF the afternoon, and
patrons abandoned the prize pumpkins
and fat cattle to witness the struggles for
supremacy on the track, which it must be
admitted forms the feature most attrac-
tive at the modern agricultural fair. The
time was exceptionally slow owing to
the wretched condition of the track.
However, for Wednesdays races the COM
mittee are working hard tonight TO
put the track into letter shape.
The race for colts, foals OF 1889 and
under, brought out only two starters, AZ
J. Dawley's Silvermont and j. w. Page,
Jr.'s Lugo. This race was a mere pro-
cession. Silvermont winning easily in
three straight heats; best time 3:ls.
The race for horses that never started
In race found six horses at the wire.
The winner was never In doubt, but in
terest centred on the holder of second
position. Kettell's Roxie X. held the
place for the first heat, but gave way to
Richard in the next two heats. sum-

The running race, half-mile heats. ex-
cited considerable interest on account OF
the local rivalry between q. II. Halls
Honest John and Gene Wilcox's Glenfal-
low. In the first heat Gienfallow fouled
Honest John at the turn, and the latter
bolted the track. throwing his driver,
Lew Brayman. against the fence. The
jockey struck the rail aud was severely
stunned, but after restoratives were ap-
piled he recovered aud pluckilv resumed
his place in the saddle in the succeeding
heats, Honest John having been driven
under the wire and saving his right to
run in succeeding heats, thanks to the
go-as-you-pl please rules which govern run
ming races at this place.
Brayman was loudly applauded as he
appeared in the second heat, which he
took easily, as also the third by splendid
riding. Honest John tired in the fourth
and lost by length. Glenfallow won the
fifth and decisive heat in a canter. This
proved the only exciting contest Of the
afternoon.

"The next great question to be
confronted by the people will be that
of corporations and their relation to
the people and national life. The
fear is now being entertained by
many of our best men that the ma
tional and state legislatures of the
Union in creating the vast corpora
tions have evoked a spirit which
may escape and defy control, and
may WELD power greater than the
people themselves"
This prophesy is fulfilled to-day.

The best and cleanest circus that
ever exhibited in Worthington is the
verdict of our people after having
patrouized Walter L. Mains circus,
which was here last Saturday.
There was an utter absence Of the
cloud" performance in the circus
features, which was refreshing.
Every act was good, and many of
them entirely new to our people.
The usual nuisances, the candy and
lemonade butchers, we're cOnspic-
uous by their absence. And for the
first time in this city there was an
entire absence of fakes and gamblers,
not a single man of that profession
showing himself during the entire
day. The Times voices the SEN
timents of the community in saying
that Mr.. Main has the neatest,
cleanest, most enjoyable circus ever
seen in Worthington.-The Times,

Murder Will Out.
Editor Paola Times:

Editor PaOla Times:
At the presidential Inauguration,
March 4, 1889, there were at Wash
ington, D. c., on the public grounds,
under pay of the United States, a
number of Pinkertons, as can be
seen on page 10 of the senate COM
mittee on appropriations upon that
bill at the time:
Fifteen Pinkerton men, three
days, at $40, $3.50 OO
Ten Pinkerton men, one
day, at $40, 100 %
Fifteen Pinkerton men, ex-
lenses three days, at IS, 225 90
Ten Pinkerton men, expenses
one day, at S., 100 W
This hiring of Pinkerton cut
throats by Republicans was drawn
out by the discussion of the appropri-
alton bill for the G. A. r. encamp-
ment at Washington. So these
vicious, blood-thirsty hell-hounds
have been patronized by this Pinker-
consented grand old party-taken
under her wing, as it were.
No wonder VIM. Pinkerton, one of
the leaders, had the gall within him
to try to blast Hon. Thos. E. Wat
son for Offering a resolution in the
house to investigate the Pinkertons,
with the Republicans patting him on
the back and patronizing his MUIR
derous set of villains. 0, you grand
old Republican party! you are a
beauty-when one can view thee as
thou art. 1t makes some difference
whose OK gets gored, am told; but
it will ever be probably phenome-
nal problem unsolved that it is ever
my OK. Just read the next para
graph:
Ought not the same law that
hanged John Brown at Harper's
Ferry, and the anarchists of Chica-
go, to hang Frick, Carnegie and
their hired assassins for the premed-
itated slaughter of the workmen at
Homestead If not, why not !!
Don't all speak "to once"
JIM M. KANE
Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1892-08-18

The sending of armed Pinker-
tons to Homestead was a blunder
containing all the elements of pre-
meditated murder; the bravery and
heroism of the strikers is admirable,
but the killing of the hired loafers
who themselves are victims pro-
duced by the comparative system
that has made Carnegie a million
aire, is all a mistake. What they
ought to do is to shoot the system
which produces millionaires and
paupers, and they ought to shoot
with the ballot, not with the bullet.

An Editors Woes.

The woes of Dewitt c. Owen, the hand
some and talented editor of the Port
Byron Globe. just now constitute the all
absorbing theme of society circles in that
quiet village. For many long months the
Globe editor has been paying the most
marked attention to one of Port Byron's
most beautiful. coy and accomplished
daughters, and for long time the loving
young couple have been in that felicitous
state Of oetrothal that is described in the
single word engaged" The date of the
happy event was Set for the month
of September and the knight of
the quill rented house. made other
arrangements, and had all but
engaged the minister to perform the
ceremony. All went we'll until about a
fortnight since, when the course of true
love became turbulent. and Editor 0 ven
and his fisnce had very bad break.
1t really looks as though a truce would
not be patched up either. The fuss, as
the story goes, started while a party of
the young society people of the classic
little city were out camping on the shores
Of the ripping Rock. and as is usual on
such occasions, innocent fiirtations ire
not an unknown quantity. Anyhow
Editor Owen and his affianced became
estranged, and the funny part of it is that
each accuses the other of having been

Turkish Couriers,

The ancient Turkish couriers always ran
with bare feet, which grew so hard and
destitute of feeling that they are said to
have had themselves shod, like horses, with
light iron shoes. To render the resem-
blance more complete, they carried in their
mouths balls of silver pierced with holes,
and champed these as a horse does his bit.
Further. their belts and carriers were fur
nishcd with little bells, which tinkled
wherever they went.
Besides their pay they received two full
suits of clothes every year. Their costume
consisted of an Albanian cassock of dam
ask or striped satin and a belt of silk en-
riched with gold, in which they carried
their poniard. Later they began to wear
coverings upon their feet-long stockings
as well rs a rude kind of shoe. Upon their
heads they wore high bonnets covered with
silver, from which waved enormous plumes
of ostrich feathers. In one hand each man
carried his Ratchet and in the other a bag
full of comfits, with which they kept their
mouths moist while running.
In this costume they accompanied their
noble master and conveyed his messages
as far as he pleased to send them. As soon
as they had received his orders away they
went, leaping and capering among the
crowd with the agility of a deer, crying,
SAUL, saulir' (''Take care, take care!'0
On they rushed, night and day, with aston
ishing swiftness, taking no repose until
they had delivered the message intrusted
to them.-Harper's Young People
