Since the withdrawal of Mr.. Lisle
from the race tor Congress several
gentlemen are in the race for the nom.
nation, in addition to those already
announced. Among those said to bt
candidates are "Breck" Hill, of Beatty.
vile, and Judge w. M. Beckner, o.
Winchester. Both these men are
good Congressional timber. Mr.. Hill
we know for a genial, capable man
who, if he really is in the race, in
tends to make it warm for the MAJ
who beats him. Our neighbor, Judge
Beckner, has already made for himself
in his public capacity place in tn
esteem and confidence of the people
of which he may well feel proud
Judge Beckner, if he enters the can
vass in earnest, will be formidable
man before the convention, notwith
standing the lateness of the day il
which he taken up the fight. The peo-
pie of this county feel very kindly to
ward Judge Beckner but we have
candidate of our own for whom we ar
expecting the nomination. More thar
that, we have man, in Col. Hsmil
ton, TO present to the District, who
at once so capable and so clean a MAJ
that it does not need in the least tina
his friends should say one word in de
traction of any of the other good mel
in the race, in order that his gooc
qualities may become prominent.

Owens Day.

Monday was Owens day in Lexing-
ton. One thousand of the representa-
tive Democrats, of Fayette county,
headed by bands of music, met and
welcomed the Scott county aspiranl
for Congress, 1t was big day fol
Owens. He was enthusiastic
ally received, and it is now
estimated, poll having been taken,
that he will carry Fayette county by
several hundred votes. The United
States is against returning w. c. p,
Breckenridge to Congress, and the
Ashland district should likewise ex-
press herself at the Primary, Septem-
her 10.

We are authorized to announce
John c.. Wood as candidate for Rail-
road Commissioner, for the Eastern
District of Kentucky, subject to the
action of the Republican party.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1894-06-12

The Republicans got this country
in a terrible mess and many of
their own party lost confidence and
entered the Democratic ranks, and
in the face of this they are charg-
ing the present state Of affairs,
which is due to their own misman-
to the Democratic party.
What concentrated gall!

Who is Responsible?

''It is, we presume, beyond ques-
ton that the sugar schedule has
been arranged in conformity to the
wishes of the Sugar Trust. 1t Is
dishonest legislation and it's sole
purpose is robbery. There is $780,
100000 of unearned profit in it for
the Sugar Trust, already an enor-
mously rich concern. There is no
excuse for this sort of spoliation of
the people, except that the people
are pretty accustomed to such ex-
actions and do not actually rise in
rebellion against them. "-Lexing-
ton Transcript.

Hon. NJ. c.. Isle having with
drawn from the race for Congress
in the Tenth District, it is said
that Hon. w. NJ. Beckner will be-
come a candidate, and while he
does not expect to make canvass,
the time being too short for him to
go into all the counties, Clark
county will instruct for him and
he will appear before the conven-
ton which meets at Campton, hop
ing to win on his merits alone.
Mr.. Beckner is a good man, well
posted in politics, and should he
reach the plum, would make a rep
resentative of which this district
would be proud.

1t is not necessary for us to say a wore

properties of the waters, which haV,
made these springs famous. Leadins
physicians have pronounced on thei,
superior medicinal properties, an'
whenever the springs have beer
open to the public, large crowds hav'
gathered. We will have something
more to say of these springs and tn,

Col. A. w. Hamilton is actively
prosecuting his canvass for the
Democratic nomination for Con-
gress in this district. His
chances for the nomination grow
brighter each day, and he will
exert himself to the utmost to win
the nomination by all honorable
means. We are glad to note the
very favorable reception the Col
onel is encountering wherever he
has gone over the district. The
fact is, we do not see how it could
be otherwise, since so many of
those who have been prominent in
politics, in the counties east of us,
have been conversant in the past
with the substantial aid he has
willingly and freely given their
candidates for District or State
offices. The delegates who go to
the Campton Convention will
therefore have no reason to feel
other than kindly toward our can
didate, and will be no wise averse
to see him get the nomination,
when they find it is not possible
for them to secure the man for
whom they go instructed. Old
Cerro Gordo Williams is simply
turning himself loose for bis step
son, and the ex-senator is some
thing of power among the boys
when he gets on his fighting
clothes. From the outlook at this
writing you can safely calculate
Hamilton away up in the front of
the fight.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1894-06-12

Hon. NJ. C. Isle, on account of
his continued ill health, has been
compelled to withdraw from the
canvass for the Democratic nOmi-
nation for Congressman from the
Tenth District. Hoping against
hope. Mr.. Lisle had bravely fought
against the progress Of his disease,
bringing all the force that his
strong will could command to
throw off the effects of the malady
that had fastened itself upon him.
This had in a large degree been
brought upon him by his earnest
self-fOrgetful discharge of the du-
ties imposed upon him by the peO-
pie of his District. When barely
able to stand on his feet, he had
bravely gone on in the path Of
duty, though that path threatened
to lead him to an early grave. He
faithfully represented his constitu-
ents, and though that faithfulness
has cost him dear, he has the con-
seriousness Of having done what he
could.
To add to his trouble, Mr.. Lisle
must needs suffer the still further
sorrow to know that his aged ia
Their was stricken down with what
looked like a fatal illness. All
this combined with the worry Of a
canvass in the midst Of an impor-
tant session, only tended to make
the already heavy burden heavier.
There is something very pathetic
in MIR. Isles unfortunate situa-
ton. Sorrow and trouble have
followed fast one upon the other
since he assumed the responsible
duties Of Office, and all in all, the
hand Of affection has been heavy
upon him. He is entitled to and
has the sincere sympathy Of all
right thinking men Of his District.
The only chance Mr.. Lisle has for
life lies;in the resolute turning Of
his back upon public life, and his
friends hope that he will one day
yet be able, with fully restored
health, to again enter the field Of
politics

"When 4,O74 meni can absorb unde'
twenty years of Protection over one
fifth the total wealth of the United
States, Protection must be beneficial
thing-for them. But when Their
has been no increase in the per capita
wealth, what they have acquired mus
have been mere transference from
other pockets to their own, obtained
by milking the people. 1t is time The
latter kicked over the pail, the milking
stool and the mixer"
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1894-06-12

Col. A. w. Hamilton's prospects for
the Democratic nomination for Con-
gress grow brighter each passing
day. He is making a manly canvass
antagonistic to 10 one and when the
proper time comes he will show aston
lshing strength, The people every
where recognize his ability and also
what help he has been to the party =.
Whether called on for money or to go
20 the remote parts of the state he has
never failed to respond and then if the
fight was within his own party and he
went down in defeat he was as hard
worker for the nominee and contribu-
ted as much as he would have done
for his choice. The people remember
these facts and they will not forget to
reward him at the proper time. An
honest, able working man should be
and will be honored.

A Democratic Tax.

pure old time Democratic ring ano
does not hesitate to speak boldly
If Democracy can not save the
country, then we are not Unfit.
"There was never anything more
absurd than the claim that an in
come tax is Socialistic. 1t is, on
the contrary, the most Democratic
of all taxes, and Democracy is the
exact opposite of socialism.
can income tax is a tax upon
wealth as such. 1t is a tax, not
upon industry, but upon accumu-
lation; not upon men, but upon
property.
mo tax could possibly be more
equitable than this. 1t is levied
upon all men alike. Whoever has
an income in excess of the small
amount exempted must pay it, no
matter what part of the country
he may live in, and no matter what
his business or his status of life
may be.
"The really Socialistic tax is
that which is levied for the pur
pose of taking one mans posses
sions or one mans earnings and
giving them to another. This is
the essence of protective tariffs,
and in protective tariffs alone We
have in this country a SOcialistic
tax. 1t is, as Mr.. Cleveland has
said, the socialism of the rich, and
as such it is the worst and most
unjust form of socialism. The in
come tax is Democratic measure
intended in some degree to take the
place of this unjust, unequal class
Legislation.
Another cry raised against the
income tax is that it is inquisitOr
ial. This is scarcely less idiOtic
than the other. Under an income
tax law the Government asks
every man what the total proceeds
of his industry or business may be.
If this be an impertinence and all
inquisition what shall we say of
"a tax law which inquiries how much
of personal property the citizen
possesses, what his land is worth,
what debts are due to him, what
stocks he holds and a score of other
like questions2 Again, what shall
we say of a tariff law which ex-
plOres trunks and sets men nOsing
among ones personal parapherna-
liza to find out whether or not he is
entering the country with more
clothing for his back than a Gus
toms inspector may think proper to
one in his condition of life?
THE fact is that all the clamor
against the income tax is the plea
of those who have against those
who have not. 1t is all part and
parcel of the endeavOr on the part
Of the rich to shift the burden of
taxation to the shoulders of the
poor.
The income tax is Democratic.
1t is demanded by the people. 1t
is just in it's idea and in its opera
ton. 1t takes revenue from super
fluffy rather than from want. 1t
takes accumulation rather than
need. 1t offers relief to industry
and thrift through the taxation of
surplus wealth. 1t is a bill in the
interests of the masses, and it is
going to become law, because the
Democracy Of the country is in the
ascendant"

A Law Against Lyinq.

After the first of next September il
will be misdemeanor in New York to
furnish information concerning per-
sons or corporations to newspaper rep
resentahves which, if published,
would be libellous. In the gathering
of news more or less dependence must
be placed on the individual giving it,
and it is proper that those wilfully
deceiving the papers should be called
to account. The general adoption of
law like that referred to in the
course of time might stop a great deal
of lying.-Providence Journal

A CARD.

To the Democrats Of Montgomery

A candidate must be in desper-
ate straits when his friends resort
to misrepresentation to aid his
cause. l did not make such a
statement, publicly or privately, as
is attributed to me in the card of
l. N. Green and others, published
in the last issue of the Times. The
appended statement by reputable
gentlemen who were present on the
occasion referred to, some of whom
are supporters of Mr.. Hunt, should
be satisfactory confederation of my
denial.
Having noticed an article in the
Montgomery County Times of date
June 2, 1894, signed by /. N. Green,

stated that Henry Jones said at a

Clerk, that / voted for Andy Cline
