Sycamore Street Will Not be Ex-
tended.

There seems to have been a mis-
understanding between Mr.. j. M.
Bigstaff and the City Council in
regard to the opening of Sycamore
street from Holt street to Winn
street. Mr. Bigstaff, as we under
stand, at the last meeting of the
Council proposed to deed to the
city street through his lands to
Winn street, provided the city
would at once grade and macadam-
ize same; but the City Council
understanding there was a propo-
sition before them, and it was the
opening of Sycamore street, Vine
street running east and west and
the widening of Winn street, re-
fused to open the street And so
it is, Mt. Sterling is to do without
additional building lots. The $780,
900 which would have been put in
circulation from buildings which
would have been put up is a fancy,
and the citizens of Winn street,
who pay an annual tax for the ben
eft of other citizens of Mt. Ster-
ling, are to continue to pay taxes
without receiving a dollars ben
eft. This is not right; it is not
fair. This is a street that should
be opened.

BraCken Association.

The Bracken Association of which
the Mt, Sterling Baptist church is a
member, met with the Mayslick Bap-
list church last Wednesday and con-
tinued three days. Every church
in the Association except three
were represented by letter and messen-
gers. The churches are all actively at
work and reports were encouraging.
Nearly $1,000 has passed through the
hands of our district treasurer and
seven missionaries are under their
employ.
Miss Mary Hollingsworth represent
ing the Orphans Home at Louisville
was present, and received in cash and
pledges $242.67. The Morehead
church which has been struggling to
relieve itself of debt, was remembered
and subscription was taken, which
covered the debt. The Kentucky Bap-
fist, of Louisville did the elegant thing
through its editor by giving a sub
scription for the relief of this church.
The Association recommended that
every church within the Association
make a subscription for State work,
which step will aid largely in sending
missionaries through this part of
Eastern Kentucky. The next session
of the association will be held with
the Millersburg Baptist Church, Aug.
1895. Officers elected for the year are
as follows, r. B. Yancy, Mayslick,
MODERATOR, w. Hedden, Mt. Sterling
Clerk, w. II. Fritts, Carlisle, Treas
urer, Mayslick and neighborhood
entertained delegates and visitors in
elegant style and complained that they
could not do more. We never attend
ed more harmonious and enthusiast
tic meeting.

Tariff Legislation.

The preposterous Steady says that
it appears that the President is in
league with dozen Senators TO pre-
vent all legislation on the tariff, and,
in the opinion of this absurd person,
1t is better for Congress to adjourn
without any action than for Senator
Vest to make another attack on the
President.
The pdrpose of Hill, German and
Brics has from the first been to pre-
vent any action on the Mckinley bill.
AS far as the people are concerned
it is not matter of any Importance
whether this nest of traitors in the
Senate have been bought with the
money of protected manufacturers or
whether it is simply an insane hatred
of the President which animates them.
German and Brice are discredited
Senators, capable of any betrayal or
any action to prevent a reduction of
the Mckinley act. But for them and
their alliance with Hill tariff reform
bill would have been passed in March.
The hole influence of the President
has been on the side of the people.
His letter was neither unwise nor I'M
just; it was essential that the Presi-
dent should speak in order to place
the odium of the years disgrace where
it belonged, on German and his gang
of freebooters.
Congress will not adjourn without
action. The threat is only another
move in the bunco game which that
prince of bunco steerers, German, has
been playing.
Speaker Crisp has had the support
of the President, and he and Chair
man Wilson have been in thorough
accord with the President. Crisp's
speech in the caucus showed what he
thought of the situation, and whom
he considered responsible for the pres
ent condition of affairs.
There has been no agreement;
there has been no honest offer of COM
promise from Germans conferees.
Every suggestion from that direction
has been snare. The whole attitude
of the Senate has been one of usurpa-
ton. 1t misundcrstands its relation
to matters of taxation, and this year
has done much to undermine its posi-
ton and destroy its influence. The
time may come when by constitu-
tional amendment bills relating to rev.
enue will be sent direct to the Presi-
dent, and when the Senate will mere
ly have the veto power itself on all
other measures and be denied the right
to amend bills sent to it from the
House.
All that seems possible for the
House to do is to accept the terms Of
fered by the highwaymen in the Sc
nate. Free traders have made a good
fight; they have made plain to the
country that the bill is not their bill,
but that the Upper House is in control
of the money power and must be re-
ructed.-Louisvill Post.

Burnett is an excellent ball
tosser, and plays to win. He is an
indispensable mau behind the bat,
and his work during the progress
of the game is to be complimented.
Manager Chiles sent him to Louis
vile yesterday to secure new play
ers to fill up the open spaces in his
team.
White, Punch and Crane went
to pieces in the third, each having
an error. But that's all right,
boys; you can and do play good
ball. No man can play perfect
game of ball in every contest he
enters, and you may console your
selves with the belief that a "few
errors now and then are made by
the best of them" The captain of
ball team, in administering his
authority to men under his guild
ance, should do so in a manner that
is mild and effective, and in doing
SO he invariably wins the respect,
esteem and confidence of the play
ers under his surveillance, as well
as praise from the audience.
"That is right"
There will be game of ball at the
park this afternoon, and the two con-
testing clubs are as follows:

The crisis has been reached in
the affairs of the striking shOpmen
at Pullman, who, since the strike,
have been permitted to remain in
their homes without paying rent.
Room must be made for the fami-
lies of the 1000 new employees;
and the only hope left to save the
strikers families from eviction is
to return to work. There is, how
ever, only room for about 600 more
men at Pullman. About 5000 peO-
pie will be affected when the evic-
tions are begun, which will be in a
few days.

Chief Justice of the State of

He died at Hopkinsville on last
Thursday, from neuralgia of the
heart, and was buried at Frank

noted as a liberal and generous
man. He was especially so in his
own household, and it is well I'M
derstood that he had no ambition
to accumulate a fortune. 1t is
SAID by those who were closest in
his confidence that his estate will
not be more than $15,0 900 or $780,

played at Paris last Tuesday un-
der disagreeable circumstances,
,most of the men being in a Grip
@led condition. White, Crane and
%Daniels, all Of whom were in bad
II shape to play ball, occupied their
positions, while Burnett was left at
home with very sore hand.
Punch was in no shape to pitch
the game, having been worked down
g in previous games and "Kid' Dan

AT MT. STERLING.
On last Saturday afternoon
about 400 people gathered at the
( Ball Park to witness a prettily
contested game between the home
team and an all-professional club
from Cincinnati. 1t was an inter
n esting game from start to finish,
4 and both clubs working to win.
1t looked rather gloomy for our
boys in the third inning, and from
the way the infeld went to pieces
at this juncture one would have
thought the all-professionals were
going to win the game easily. But
after this bad part of the game
our boys cooled down, got on their
pins and went merrily on to vic
tory, the score standing at the
close to in their favor.
"Kid" Daniels twirled the ball
gracefully and effectively for the
Nome team, the visitors making
only one hit off his delivery, and
but for few errors he would have
held the visitors down to goose
egg. Zimmerman, for the visitors,
proved an enemy to the trade
mark, and the locals found it diff
cult to bat in the winning score.
