Paynter Wins.

The Sixth Appellate District Con-
vention met at Augusta, Wednesday.
Ind after some difficulty permanent
organization was effected. 1t was not
ill Thursday afternoon that report
'fthe Committee on Credentials could
De secured. An authority says:
Shortly after 5 o'clock the Commit
ee on Credentials came in with the
'eport, and all was expectation. The
majority report, as offered through
W. E. Miller, of Kenton, reported that
he only contest before them was in
Harrison and Kenton, and recon-
nended the Paynter delegates in Har-
rison; and the seating in Kenton Of
Ben Dresden in Precinct c. in place OF
George F. Ahler. There were two
'eperate minority reports. The ma
jority report was adopted, the vote
standing IA for to Ga against. Judge
w. w. Moore, of Cynthiana, was put
nomination by the Paynter men,
md Lucius Desha, of Newport by
The opposition, for permanent chair
nan. The vote stood "a to "a in favor
If Moore. Permanent organization
vas completed by electing G. B.
Wills, Of Brookville, Secretary.
The Paynter delegates were now in
nigh feather, and began to run things.
They voted down all attempts to ad-
iourn, and forced ballot. The anti
Goebel delegation voted for Paynter,
and when Pendleton was reached r.
W. Holiday withdrew Applegate's
name and moved to make Paynter's
unanimous. The motion
yet the convention fairly wild. Dur
ng pause in the cheering, Mayor
Rhinock, Of Covington, arose and cast
he GOebel vote in Kenton for Pawn
er. This settled it and all was over
'ut the shouting.
Paynter was duly declared the NOM
nee amid great enthusiasm. He &C
;epted, and the other candidates rati-
led the nomination.
The nomination is equivalent to
election. The term is eight years,
md the salary is $1,000.

German added that If the document
was of any importance 1t would do no
harm to submit it to the Chairman of
the National Committee.
"'All right, says Cleveland, and hc
handed out the document, saying:
What do you think of that, German?
"Gorman read the document over
very carefully, and then. without a
word, he flung it into the crate, say
ing: That's what / think of that
document
ut was little chilly in Albany that
night, and there was fire in the
CRATE, and the document began to
burn. Cleveland jumped out of his
chair and hoped up and down in his
anger, shouting: No man alive can
burn any document of mine. What
do you mean, STRIP
why, Governor said German. as
coolly as you please, you said that /
was to run this campaign according
to my own discretion. The document
that have just thrown into the fire is
about as unwise manuscript as ever
came under my notice.
cleveland meantime was trampino
about in his rage, but German was as
cool as an iceberg. Finally Cleve-
land began to laugh at himself. He
remembered his remarks to German
on the first interview, and the two
men parted friends, but not until
Cleveland had told German that he
was the coolest son of gun he had
ever met"
If Senator German could have cot
hold of the letter Mr.. Cleveland sent
to Prot. Wilson, he might have found
a fire somewhere in Washington, even
in July.

HostiIities Begun.

The reports that war has actual
ly begun between China and Japan
have been confirmed. Advices
from Shanghai report that two
transports, one steamer belong
ing to Hugh Mathieson & Co.'s
line and the other a steamer be-
longing to the China Merchant
Steam Navigation Company, both
bearing Chinese troops, were sunk
in an engagement with the Japan
csc vessels. In the engagement a
Chinese warship was captured by
the Japs.
The principal trade the United
States has with China and Japan
is in tea and silk. A war between
these countries will probably very
materially increase the price of
these commodities.
1t is also stated that the King of
Corea is prisoner in the hands of
the Japanese. One account has it
that the King is simply held in his
palace and not allowed to commu-
nicate with those outside except
with the knowledge of the Japan
csc officials. A war between these
countries, it is not improbable, will
drag England and Russia into the
struggle, though both the last
named countries disclalm any in
tention of taking a hand in the
fight.

REPUBLICAN FRAUDS AT KNOX
WILLIE, TENN.
Warrants Issued.

The Democratic Executive Com
mittee unearthed 1900 fraudulent
registrations in the completed regis
tration lists for the August election,
all of whom are Republicans. Many
are whites, but majority are negroes
who registered many times in the
hope OF selling certificates at the
market price of $4. Warrants were
issued for forty white Repub-
licans. The committee proposes to
begin with the most prominent of the
Republican crew who are gailty of
fraud and go down the line till the
meanest negro and lowest white Re-
publican forces are punished. Whole
sale arrests will follow, as the com
mittee intends to issue 1900 warrants
If necessary. 1t is generally known
that there were many frauds, as
as there always are, but the announces
ment that 1900 had been unearthed
caused CONSERVATION even among Re-
publieans.

The Japano- Chinese situation is
still warlike. The Chinese Gov
eminent has prohSbitedathe expor-
5atiOn of rice or grain, is placing
tOrpedoes in the north channel and
the entrance to the Yang-Tse river
and is buying war material freely,
Later reports confirm the news Of
the sinking of the transport IKow
Shing, all but forty of the 1000
troops being lost. A London ca
blegram states that the British
Government has abandoned its sug-
gestion that the question at dis
pute between China and Japan be
submitted to it as an arbitrator, it
being evident that such an arrange
ment would be opposed by Russia
and that it's whole effort now is to
secure the acceptance by both dis
putants of President Cleveland S
offer to mediate.

The Hon. 10. Nj. Kendall has
had the advantage of sufficient ex-
perience in Congress to give him
an insight into the way things are
worked at Washington. His oppo-
nent, Mr.. Hopkins, were he to be
elected, would have to sit in his
seat like knot on a log and would
be of no more use to this district
than any other dummy that might
be sent to the Capitol. This dis
trict cannot afford, even were it so
disposed, to send such a man to
Congress. We want some one who
can get for this district some no
tice, and Brother Hopkins isn't
that man. 10. Kendall knows the
strings to pull and just how to
pull them, in order to get any
special legislation his district may
desire. Brother Hopkins, with his
little sixty days experience in the
Legislature of Kentucky, where he
made himself conspicuous only by
the introduction of one or two
clearly unconstitutional bills, would
be unable even to secure momen-
tary attention from either a COM
mittee or the House. The fact is
Brother Hopkins says he was
"called" to preach, and he would
much better stick to his calling
and keep out of politics. The
preacher who monkeys with poll
tics generally manages to land
himself in the devils drag-net.

We are in the habit of saying that,
in government such as ours, the
people must be educated, and of sup
posing that the necessary education is
to be had in schools. But experience
keeps the only school that most people
learn practical wisdom in, and it is by
forming trade unions and trying what
they can accomplish that workmen
learn the nature of law, the powers Of
government. and the fundamental
principles of political economy. They
have now learned that such strike as
that of the American Railway Union
must necessarily fail. They have
learned that when the police and the
militia tail to preserve order, the
United States forces can be called in
They have found that while the great
body of the people have kind hearts
and are glad of the prosperity of labor
ing-men, they do not sympathize in
any attempts to promote this prosperi-
ty by interrupting all industry and
destroying property. The cost of this
education has been considerable, but it
seems probable that the lesson would
have had to be learned, sooner or
later, and upon the whole the present
time was the best that could have
been selected. The rights of action
possessed by associations of workmen.
having received this practical defini-
ton, are not likely to be Immediately
exceeded again; and we may well
remember, therefore, that laws tending
to limit the freedom of workmen 10
form such unions as they choose, and |
to utter their complaints and aspira-
tions, are questionable.--D. MEG.

The hot winds in Nebraska and
Kansas bring. destruction to the
growing crops. Thousands of farm
ers, helpless, see their crops scorch,
and many disheartened move away,
while others with the blade in hand
cut the unmatured corn to be used
as a winter feed for stock. Two
weeks ago it was estimated that
400, 100000 bushels of corn would
be for sale, but now it is estimated
that it will be necessary to ship
corn to them in order that they
may live until another season.

The withdrawal of Hon. D. c.
Lisle, of Clark, from the race foI
Congress leaves Judge w. NJ. Beck
ner clear field for the Democratic

There is no man in our acquaint-
ance who can so ably fill the unex-
pired term as can Judge Beckner.
He will without doubt be found
giving an intelligent reason for his
position on every question that
comes up, and no Democrat in
Congress will be truer to the prin-
ciples of the party than will Judge
Beckner. He will not forget to
keep a wide-open eye on anything
and everything that concerns his
district. We do not care who he
