In an Interrscw In the Paducah standard
Jerry Porter Ia Quoted AZ Saying of
his Contest.

1T is not, nor has it been my pur
pose to charge fraud or Irregular
ties. l do not believe anything dis
honest has occurred, and only ask fol
the correction of plain errors which ]
believe when corrected assures my
fair election beyond doubt.
do not want the Office with the
least shadow or doubt as to my fan
election to it. Life is too short, and
the open air is to free for me, just fol
the sake of Office, to want to carry
any stain or reflection of this kind
through it with me, and from what
Mr.. Dempsey's friends have said to
me of him [ must believe he shares
my feelings in this matter heartily.
And since the testimony shows
clearly in my mind that Mr..
Dempsey received seventy-seven
votes in that precinct that were
counted, and that received 208
votes which by clerical error were
dropped in transferring to the cleo
ton SUD DOCK, IDelleVe Tic efTOT Will
be corrected and the matter settled
speedily.
1 shall hope that the public will
not be burdened with long contest,
with Mr. Dempsey and myself the
actors in it, but that it all will be
settled quickly and right just as soon
as honest Investigations shall reveal
who has a majority of votes cast by
the people.
Laughlngly Mr.. Porter said: "By
the way, with all the seriousness of
the case, still there's a bit of good
humor attached to it." You know
certain democratic papers criticised
Judge Yost being democrat for
taking fee from republican client,
and it turns out now that Mr.. Demp-
sey has Judge Gordon, of Madison
vile, as his leading attorney, whom
,m told is a republican, case of
horse and horse. ?"

The December Forum has for its
leader a striking article by NJ. Paul
Leroy Beaullieu, the distinguished
French political economist, entitled
Conditions for American CONNER
cial and Financial Supremacy"
From the point of view of a sympa-
thetic European observer, NJ. Beau
lieu discusses the financial problem
now confronting the United States
government, and points out its only
possibly solution. His article. con-
tains many observations of profound
significance to Americans, and it is
probably the clearest diagnosis of oul
financial troubles that has yet ap-
peared. Mr.. W. D. Howells, in "The
Nature of Liberty" contends that the
man who is in danger of want or even
ill dread of want is not a free man;
and that country which does not
guard him against this danger and
this dread, or does not assure him the
means of livelihood, is not a free
country-in other words, that liberty
and poverty are incompatible. Hon.
Theodore Roosevelt writes about
Thomas Bracket Reed and the
Fifty first Congress-" describing the
conditions which confronted Mr..
Reed when Speaker of that Congress,
and commenting him for the course
which he took to suppress filibuster-
ing.

The Christmas Century is notable
both pictorially and for its literature.
Perhaps the most striking and novel
illustrations are those by Tissot from
his well-known series, "The Life of

on exhibition in the United States.
The article on this extraordinary

Another set of interesting illustrations
is by Louis Loeb, the American artist,
accompanying an article on "The

Hardware has solicited the opin-
ions of the leading bicycle msnufac-
turers of the country as to the num-
Der of bicycles manufactured In
America during 1895 and the prob
able output for 1896. The responses,
which are from the leading manufac-
turers of the country, place the out
put for 1895 anywhere from 400, 900
to $50, 900 and that of 1896 from
400, 900 to 1000 900. A fair average
of these opinions would bring
the prophecy for 1896 to near
$50, 900 wheels. The fear is ex-
pressed by some manufacturers that
the business will be overdone, more
especially in the cheaper grades, al.

somewhat by the inability to obtain
material. No fear is expressed in
