ON National Iasuae.

1t seems TO be pretty well understood
that the republicans Of New York have
decided to conduct the campaign in that
state on national issues. Boss Platt is
the guiding spirit, and his purpose in dis
regarding state issues is two-fold. He
thinks that more can be accomplished by
means Of the calamity howl" than by
talking to the people about state matters,
and he hopes 10 get more money for cam
paiEn purposes if the campaign is con-
Quoted on national lines.
MIR Platt undoubtedly shows shrewd-
ness ia keeping away from state matters.

the state government, the people have
had few grounds for complaint Mr.

a Bond war in Kentucky.


The trouble in Union county, Kentucky,
referred to in our dispatches yesterday,
had its beginning twenty-odd years ago,
and is the outcome Of the sharp practices
of a suave New York promoter"
In the southwestern part of Union
county are two little precincts, Indie
and Caseyville, about ten miles across
and embracing an area of about $4,000
acres. In 1871 a smooth-speaking, well
dressed individual, giving his name as
Gen. Gordon Winslow Of New York, APP
peared among the people of the two pre-
Cincts and organized company to build
a railroad from Jacksonville to the Ohio
river at point in Caseyville precinct
He induced the people of Indie to sub
scribe for $4,000 worth of stock and the
people of Caseyville to subscribe for 500
600 worth. Bonds for these amounts
were printed and laid away in the court
house to await the completion of the
road.
Work on the road was begun. It had
progressed for probably q couple of weeks
when, on one stormy night, Gen. Gordon
WinslOw got the citizens of the two pre-
cincts together at meeting in the court.
house and induced them to instruct the
county officials to turn the bonds over to
him. The next morning, with the bonds
in a hanu-bag, he left on a chartered
steamboat for the east, and never went
back again. Work on the railroad was
Immediately suspended, and is still sus-
pended. About one mile of graded right
| of-way, now grown up in weeds and
brush, is all that remains to show for the
SO, 000 of bonds that Gen. Gordon Wins
low took away with him.
The interest on the bonds. however,
kept on accommodating, notwithstanding
the people paid little or no attention to
! the matter after the failure Of the suave
general to build the road Three years
| ago the bonds matured the principal and
interest running the total amount of the
evidence of Indebtedness up to something
more than $500. $50. And that is 20 per
| cent. of the value of the property in the
two precincts. Forced payment Of the
bonds would make paupers Of many of the
people.
With the maturing of the bonds, their
holders, New York trust company, be-

brought and judgment obtained order
ing the collection of tax to satisfy the
debt The people, however, refuse to pay
the tax. The bOndholders have employed
Capt. T. c. Blackwell to make the collec-
ton, for which service he is to get $50, 900.
Capt. Blackwell. backed by the order of
the court, has enlisted posse of 100 men
to assist him in making the collection.
The citizens of Indie and Caseyviue have
armed themselves and declare they will
fight to the death before they will pay.
Meanwhile the swindler is not in evi-
dence He may be enjoying his ill-gotten
money and laughing in his sleeve at his
dupes or he may be dead Nevertheless,
the prospects are that the bitter fruits of
his rascality will be gathered in
| bloody harvest in Kentucky.

Moro Examination Answers.

The examiner report Of an examination in
the geography Of India recently held by the
Manchester Geographical Society is inter
Csung reading, says the Westminster Ca
Zette. The average age OF the candidates
was Is years and india gives some examples
OF the answers. One question invited an ac-
count OF the principal peoples OF India and
their present distribution. "Hndus, replied
one disciple Of Lord Salisbury are of a black
kind Of persons. The principal peoples of
India another wrote, are the Parsees the
Jeans. the hindus, and the Coolies While

wattes Burmese. English, and Ceylonese."
4 he gem Of the collection, however. IS a
short essay upon the duty of England to
the peoples of India: The duty Of England
is different to that OF India. The people of
India are very careful OF what they do. When
they are gong to sit down they carefully
brush the seat before they sit down, for fear
they should sit on any living insects, when
the English people sit down and don't care
whether they sit on insects or not" The

Mr.. At!,fnson,s Land Trnde.

The explanation that Mr.. Atkinson
gives Of the charge brought against him
by the populists, that he dealt unfairly
with a widow of Meriwether county in a
land trade, leaves no room for doubt that
he is uniustly accused, and that the pur-
pose of the accusation is to iniure him
rather than give the public the truth.
That which is particularly IN Mr.. Atkin-
sons favor is the fact that all that was
done in respect to the land in question
was done in open court, There was moth
ing hidden in the transaction. and the
widow was represented by her father.
The court would hardly have permitted
the widow to be wronged, and the pre-
sumption, without any explanation from
Mr.. Atkinson, would naturally be that
the widow got all she was entitled to.
Stories like this one against Mr.. Atkin-
son do not harm a candidate. They are
50 easily explained that people pay no at
tentiou to them 1t is generally under
stood that they are set aAoat for a polti-
cal purpose, and that whatever there is
in them that reflects upon the person
against whom they are aimed can be
readily explained
This charge against Mr. Atkinson
would have been given publicity long
ago if there had been anything in it. The
fact that it is published at this time indi-
Gates a purpose TO damage Mr.. Atlliuson's
political prospects-not to have an alleged
wrong corrected

The Doctor Lost.

The gambling instinct is strong in most
men, but it is seldom that one hears
of man with sufficient nerve
to bet sum of money on his own
life, says the Philadelphia Record. A
wager Of this kind has Just leaked out in
which two prominent members of Walnut
street club are concerned. These two men
have been close friends for years. One is
doctor and the other a lawyer. A year ago
the lawyer, who had previously enjoyed the
best Of health, began to complain Of feeling
run down. He consulted his friend
the doctor. who after minute
and thOrous examination told him
frankly that his lungs were affected, the act
ion OF his heart was impaired. and that he
wouldn't live year The lawyer, who is a
manOf lndomitable pluck and will power, was
naturally stunned fora moment. After the
nrst shock had passed of, his true nature as
serted Itself. III bet you $1,000 you are
W. Ong, ana that l do live over year." he
exclaimed. He was in deadly earnest. The
doctor was positive that his dIagn isis was
correct and was forced to accept the bet.
The money was placed in a safe deposit
vault and the lawyer went abroad. In six
months he returned. The year was up last
week and he won his wager. And what is
more, he says he is open for more bets of a
similar nature.
