"BAD TON" SMITH
Attempts to saw Ont Of the Breslhit,

OOuhty jail,
Jackson, KY, May 27!--Jailor
III. w. Centers, who has charge of
the new Breatbitt county steel jail
here, has very fortunately just dis
covered and foiled a well-planRed
desperate attempt to escape made
by bad Tom" Smith, the muir
derer of DR.. J. K. RAIDER, who will
die on the scaffold on May 81, and
of several other men who are now
confined, together with Catherine
McQuinn, Smiths accomplice, in
the structure.
The hopes of Smith were shat
tered by fellow prisoner who was
serving out a small sentence. The
man slipped note to the jailor at
meal time on which was written
the words: Smith is trying to
escape. He has saws in his cell"
When the surprised jailor read
the note he lost no time in search
ing the cell of the prisoner, and
after some time discovered neatly
hidden in an air tube a saw frame
about 8 inches long and a half doz-

was then made. It was found that
two of the bars which extend the
height of the cell and are about 8
inches wide by ! inch thick had
been sawed near half in two, and
the holes neatly stopped up with
soap. The idea evidently was to
await a favorable opportunity to
complete the job. The desperate
man struck a snag, however, when
he penetrated the outer covering
of the bars. This is of soft steel
and is about Il quarter of an inch
thick. Inside the bar is of chilled

resentative.

Speculation anent the race for
the Legislative seat from the coun-
ty is always ready intense, and the
wires are already being pulled by
the aspirants in the field.
One feature which has developed
is the fact tn vt no avowed free sill
yer candidate has thus far announced
himself. This is significant, con-
sidering the fact that Fayette adj
joins the home of the champion of
free silver, and is the of a so-called
bimetallic club, organized and OPP
Grated in the interest of the white
metal.
The race, as made up, is a TRAN
gular affair, the aspirants being
Squire Gordon, Judge Perry, ard it
is also stated Hon. Hart Gibson,
the incumbent. OF the lot it is
whispered in political circles that
Squire Gordon is friendly to Nc
Creary, Il fact which renders his
position ON the currency question a
trihe complicated. On the other
hand Judge Perry, who achieved
considerable prominence during

Judge Perry saws that he will make

candidate and will vote for thp'Inan

KENTUCKY THURSDAY 90 1896
county and city will be contested
hv the Ranublicana

county and city will be contested
by the Republicans.
The fact that q line of candi-
dates will be sprung by the Re-
publicans in both city and county
forces the belief that the Democ-
racy requires strong nominees.
The Republicans intend to make
a fight to capture the next legisla-
ture, and the fact that in 90 coun-
ties the G. o. P. elected twenty
Judges at the fall election gives
them ample grounds for their
boast. County judges are in po-
sitions to at least prevent the
nominees from getting the hot end
of the deal, and taking everything
into consideration the situation is
such as to demand good, strong
nominees. John w. Lewis is the
man whom the Republicans have
centered on as their candidate for
the senate in the event that they
carry the Legislature, and move
ments in his interest are already
being made in different parts of
the state.
The fact that hot fights will DO
made in every county for the seat
in the legislature, forces the fight
to center on the currency question.
While the state officials cannot
directly effect legislation on the
money question. the senator elected
will be the man who votes to de-
feat an honest dollar or uses his
influence to elevate inflated cur
rency, and Notwithstanding the
desire of Col. Clay to eliminate
the currency from the state fight
that issue will be the one on which
the campaign will and is being
made.
The Courier-Journal and Post
have declared they will not sup
port a candidate who is in favor
of free silver, and in this action
they are supported by similar dec
larations of many of the sound
money papers in the country towns.
In the event that a free silver
nominee is selected. then the De-
mocracy will be without the sup
port of the press of the state. The
Republican convention will for
mulate a platform declaring
straight-out for the gold standard,
or practically that, and in the
opinion Of well-known politicians
the selection of free silver man
means the loss Of the state.
Many threats are being made
against Carlisle for his invasion
of the state in the interosto sound
money, and the remark made by
an old, colored man who knew Car
Isle during bis services in the
house summed up the situation
when he said IL
