A VENERABLE elitor of a New York
newspaper has retired from the profess
ion at the age OF seyenty-fve and having
given forty years out Of the seventy-five
to newspaper writing, says that within
all OF that time he never wrote a line
that could bring blush to any honest

day and time, that a man may edit a
newspaper for forty years and say moth
ing that will offend his neighbor or bring
the blush of shame TO any mans cheek.
In these haphazzard that man must
be peculiarly and wonderfully made,
who guards his newspaper work 30 well
that at some time he dosn't make a
break and peel the bark of OF somebody.
But at all times the newspaper editor
should he well guarded and keep his
sheet as clean MS possible. We live in
fast times II is true, but the careful,
thoughtful reader likes that manner and
mode OF expression In his paper that is
clean, brief and 10 the point.

HER STATEMENT,
Miss Pollard Breaks Silence In a
Written Statement Con-
= corning Her Life. AstaA
HER EARLY ENGAGEMENT


WAsnINeToN, Sept. 10. Repeated
efforts by the brightest men Of the press
in this city have failed TO elicit a word
from Madeleine Valeria Pollard concern
ing her relations with Congressman
breckenridge, of Kentucky, but to-day
the correspondent OF the st. Louis Dis
patch and the New York World induced
her to break the long silence. Her story
is graphic and explicit, and is over her
own signature. She commences by say
ing that she had been silent under the
advice OF counsel, but that The necessity
Tor silence is now removed In her ex-
ordium she says; IN N
feel an irresistible impulse to tell the
story of my life, the amount Of the at
mosphere Of falsehood and deception in
which ] have been forced to live for
nine years by my infatuated devotion for
Col. Breckenridge; kept alive until few
months ago by his own devotion TO and
bis consideration OF me. For him alone,
and to shield him, from his guilty rela-
tons with me, have I ever resorted to
falsehood and deception.
With this man alone have Lever been
guilty q a single impure thought or act
The miserable reward Of my fidelity is a
sermon in itself to show how long the
highest devotion the human soul is cap-
able of may fall.
She then tells OF her early life in
Frankfort, KY, from early childhood on;
OF her early engagement to James G.
Rhodes and Of her education under his
care. 1t was at the home OF the widow
OF Gov. Blackburn that Mr.. Breckenridge
first made public recognition of her as
his future wife. From that time on, she
says, she had given up her whole life to
him. The statement concludes as fol-
lows;
l always sat in the gallery to hear his
speeches on the floor and signed to him
If his voice was too weak, or il attention
waned. He never made speech that
there was not message direct to me in
it, and though it belonged to the speech
and may have been very prosaic, il meant
much to him and me. Mr.. Breckenridge
always introduced people to me with the
utmost difference and respect, and in no
way of the nine years of our life together
did he fail to do this until he began the
denials OF our engagement.
l knew no old gentleman in Cincinna-
ii, and the only old gentlemen who ever
called upon me- were Mr.. Rhodes and
Mr.. Breckenridge.
Mr.. Breckenridge knew Of my contracts
with Mr.. Rhodes, for it was of this mat
ter wrote to him for advice and he
came in answer to my letter. He knew
Mr.. Rhodes personally, they lived all
their lives in Fayette county and were
Morgan men. l.
That my word was welcome TO Mr..
Rhodes explains itself when it is known
that the first year of my acquaintance
with him and Indebtedness to him Mr.
Breckenridge and began our life togeth-
er / have purposely said nothing OF the
facts directly bearing on the case because
| have concluded to hand you with
this memoranda OF the facts as given to
my counsel in my statement to them and
reduced to writing before the suit was
brought.

That Senatorial Race.

TLe primary now over and our man Gross has
won, r.f
In spite Of the mighty efforts of Minor and Rich
ardson.
Minor now is silent, no more he'll try to speak;
This race has worn him threadbare, his voice is
strangely weak,
lie seems sad and lonely and his face is all
awTy,
Cause he didn't get that ''promised bite" of his
old friend Gus' pie.
Now Gus believes twas "dirt'' that helped to
put him off the track,
lie grts his teeth and ''investigates,n and calls
us Gross men black.
Poor man; he has my symp athy, has my
old friend Bill,
But both now stand as evidence that bad defeats
won't kill.
In the contest Gus and Bill have labored side by
side,
Aud carried in all sorts of stuff and to beat Jack
hard they tried.
Twas hard on Jack, that canvass was; he pulled
and "blowed" and talked,
No difference what was in his way our Captain
never "bdlked.n r
But the race will soon be over and enemies
will sigh,
While we sit back expectant for some of Gross
pie.
