Perpetual motion Discovered.

Nathan Stubblefeld, of Murray,
claims to have discovered the princi-
pie of perpetual motion. The Times
says:
"The motor is small one, only
about ten pounds in weight, including
base and other fixtures, but is capable
or propelling other machinery of It's
own resistance.
The inventor is building a larger
motor, which is to be of greater pow
er than the one described, and until
this is finished he refuses to be inter
viewed or allow for publication any
facts bearing on the principles or
laws involved more than the proceed
ing.
For more than so days he has had
testing apparatus continuously oper.
ated by this earth current, night and
day, in order to fix the duration OF
this form of energy. This, in add,
ton to the motor, was seen by all, and
tits admitted by all that this must be
so-called perpetual motion, or con-
tinuous motion at no cost, so to speak
Aside from running itself the motor
has developed sufficient power to
turn a small machine. Mr.. Stubble-
field claims that he will revolutionize
the motive powor of the world and
many learned electricians are interest
ed in his invention"

The Engine Ordinance.

Mr.. EDITOR: 1t is seldom we farmers
care to defend our interests in print,
but have a grievance to air against
the authorities of your town that not
only concerns myself but many 9th
ers as we'll. It is the interest of the
town to foster the interests of the.
farmers, for the town can only be
prosperous when the farmers are.
Nv grievance is this. / carried
my traction engine to Hopkinsville
some days ago TO be shipped to the
factory for repairs, when ] got there l
was informed that it was ten dollar
fine to run traction engine on the
streets with steam except between
the hours of II o'clock at night and
six or seven IN the morning. Now
you can readily see that / was not in
a very pleasant position. My engine
was in some three hundred yards
of the point to load it on the
car, steam was up ready to take it
there, my hands we're in place and it
was necessary that the machine
should be sent off to the factory
without delay, but the town said no,
YOU must wait however inconvenient
it may he to you and bring it in after
II o'clock to night when all honest
people ought to be in bed.
\ ow this traction engine business
is getting to be something in this
county aud they are getting to be so
numerous that it will be necessary to
move them into and out of your town
quite frequently. My engine now,
on its return win necessarily have to
90 to some small station outside of
the town where the facilities are not
so good or safe for unloading. just
simply could not be bothered with
trying to get it out at night.
! know your Coucil could arrange
it SO it would not work a hardship on
the farmers and at the same time
make it comparatively safe for the
travelling public Have policeman
to accompany the engine through the
streets and keep the way clear say
one square ahead and not let them
travers Main or Ninth streets except
whep it is necessary to cross them.
! will say that got my engine TO the
shipping point by personal aPplica-
ton TO three Of the council and the
mayor who, under the circumstances
allowed me the privilege, but
would not expect to have them re-
peat it. .
The good old motto Live and let
live" ia as applicable to a town as it
is to an individual. The town GER
tainly cannot gain anything by OBJ
tanning the III will Of its friends and
supporters.

Anti-Liauor Resolution

The following resolution was adopt
ed by the Southern Baptist Conven-
ton, with but little opposition.
Resolved, that we, the members of
the Southern Baptist Convention, re-
assert our tfuceless and uncompro-
missing hostility to the manufacture,
sale and importation and transporta
ton of alcoholic beverages in all their
forms. WeIegard the policy of issu-
ing Government licenses, forthe par-
pose of carrying on the liquor traffic
as sin against God and dishonor
to our people We furthermore an
nounce it as our conviction that we
should by all legitimate means op-
pose the liquor traffic in municipality
State and nation. Furthermore, we
announce it as the sense of this body
that no person should be retained in
the fellowship of a Baptist Church
who engages in the manufacture or
sale OF alcoholic liquors, either whole
sale or retail, who invests his money
in the manufacture or sale of alcohol
ic liquors, or who rents his property
to be used for distilleries, wholesale
liquor houses or saloons, nor do we
believe that any church should retain
in its fellowship any members who
drink liquor as beverage or visit sa-
looms or drinking places for the pur-
pose OF said indul gencies."

leading gold Democrats in the State
announced to- day that it has been
definitely decided that the party in

plank declaring in favor of the unlim-

16 to !; to send to the national con-
vention a delegation that will be in
favor of free silver, and to nominate a
candidate for governor who wishes to

Ohio Will be True.

Columbus, O., May 1S.-If the pub,
lie sentiment of the Democratic party
of Ohio is given fair expression at
the polls in the election of delegates to
the Ohio State Convention in June,
there remains but little doubt that
the convention will declare without
reservation or equivocation for the
ratio Of 16 to !. The sentiment of
the party is clearly adverse to a repi-
tition of the platform of last year,
and it seems now that nothing short
of miracle can prevent the capture
of the convention by the advocates of
the l6-to-l ratio.

The Courier-Journal almanac for
1896, issued by that paper and certi-
fed to as containing historical and
statistical facts" has this argument
for a silver standard on page 435:
NATIONAL REVENUE, EXPENDITURE AND
DEBTS.
The following tables, compiled
from the annual report of the Direc-
tor of the Mint, showing as they do
the financial condition of the world.
First, those which are on a gold ba-
sis. Second, those on the gold and
silver basis, and third, those on a
purely silver basis. The data are
from official reports from the Govern
ments themselves, and, therefore, they
reveal the actual facts.
The tables show that, generally
speaking the gold standard countries
and the gold and silver standard
countries are hopelessly in debt, while
the PURIFY SILVER STANDARD COUNTRIES
HAVE MUCH THE BETTER CONDITION. In
deed the figures contain an intimation
that the NATIONAL DEBTS OF THE woRLG
CAN NEVER BE PAID. Let the reader
make personal application of the
facts. Suppose your income were
$S42 per year, and your expenses $845
per year, and that you owed 81 1891,
what are the chances that your debt
could ever be paid7 That is the aver
age condition of the gold standard
countries to-day, according to their
own official report. Or, worse still,
suppose your income were 1919 per
year, and your expenses 1853 a year,
and that you owed SIS, 795, doyouthink
youcould everget out ofdebtl That is
the average condition of the gold and
silver standard countries. In those
countries which base their money on
silver alone the average national in
come is greater than the expenditure,
SO that their relative small indebted
ness has some prospects of ultimate
ly being paid"
Then follow the statistics which
prove the above.
The table shows that the United
States has a revenue per capita OF
&.35 and an expenditure per capita
of S5.37 and a public debt of $l,63z,-
254 900, which can never be paid I'M
der the present system, if the Cour-
Ter Journals argument is correct. o.
