Con. Malcolm Yeaman, of Hender

Hon. Malcolm Yeaman, of Hender-
son, is spoken of as probable entry
into the judicial contest. Mr.. Yea
man is unfortunate in hailing from a
county that suffered its Democratic
vote 10 fall from 2200 to 400 last
year and whose representation will
only be Z votes in the district conven-
ton. If Mr.. Yeaman is one of the
800 Democrats of Henderson county
who failed to vote for Hardin, he will
find that circumstance a very en-
barrassing one in his canvass.

In the suit brought by the County
Attorney Of Henderson county to
rescind the action of the Fiscal Court
increasing the salary of the County
Superintendent from 81, 900 to 81 800,
Judge Givens decided that the salary
must remain at $1,000 during the
present term.
The constitution expressly prohib-
its any change in the salaries of pub
lie officers during their terms, but
Henderson IS not the only county
where it has been disregarded. The
salaries of several of the Republican
officers of Christian county have been
increased since they vent into office
and nobody has seen fit to raise the
%nt Judge Givens has passed upon.
The State Inspector ought to be re-
quired to investigate matters of this
sort.

Mr.. Jas. F. Rogers, formerly pro-
prietor of the Banner, has resumed
control of that paper, having bought
out the lease of Mr.. ]. L. Edmund
son. Mr.. Edmundson still retains an
interest in the Banner. 1t 10 said,
however that he contemplates retiring
from journalism altogether, and it is
not improbable that he will sever his
editorial connection with the Banner

The following paragraph is from

The following paragraph is from
the Morganfeld Sun:
"The names of different gentlemen
in the Second District are being men
toned in connection with the race for
the democratic nomination for con-
gress next fall, availability being the
chief point of consideration. The
available candidate, in The Suns
opinion, will be he who stands
squarely on the next national plat
form to be adopted at Chicago. The
democrats of the second must make
haste slowly in selecting their
nominee this year. To win, the nomi-
nee must stand on the platform.
Platform boilers and platform antag-
onists will not be countenanced
by the rank and file in the future.
Hardin's fate is evidence sufficient,
The congressional aspirant who de-
sires the nomination will act wisely in
keeping "mum" Until after the demo
cratic national convention"
We fail to see the wisdom of the
course suggested by our Union coun-
ty neighbor. We know as we'll now
as we will know six months hence
what the principles of the Democratic
party are and always have been. If
the factionaI fight that is sure to
come up in the National convention,
in the attempt to change the platform
of the party to conform to the erro-
neous views of leaders who have con-
Quoted us into au "open grave" is to
be transferred to the congressional
districts, then Kentucky will send a
solid Republican delegation to the
next Congress. If there is to be any
Democratic party In the future in
Kentucky, there must be harmony,
wisdom and conservatism in our dis
cordant ranks this year. 1t would be
better to nominate all of our candi-
dates in advance of possible if not
a very probable disruption of the
party at Chicago on national issues.
We believe this opinion is shared by
many Democrats of widely different
views on subjects upon which Demo
Gratis disagree. There is no room in
the Second district for two Demo
cratic parties. There is barely stand
ing room for one.

In spite of the vigorous denials

The machete-pronounced mar
chay-tay-with which the Cuban pa
triots do much of their fighting, is a
large, heavy knife resembling a
broadsword, often two or three feet
in length, used to cut path through
the thickets and canebrakes as we'll as
to chop off Spanish heads. 1t is
bad weapon to come in contact with
in hand to hand fight.

Down in the meadow,

Is little white fawn
As White as snow.
There is a gentle spring
Through this meadow flows,

As the day draws to close.
On the soft, green grass,
We would run and play
Until tired and sleepy,
Then would rest until day.
Foryears this little fawn
In this meadow did stay, s
And never was killed
Though seen every day.

RELIGIOUS NEWS
AND THOUGHT.
GATHERED FROM THE RELIGIOUS
AND SECULAR PRESS.
Words of Wisdom and Thoughts
Worth rendering On-Religious
and Moral Subjects.

''Why art thou cast down, o, my
soul?" If God be thine, why this
detection? If he uplifts thee, why art
thou so near the ground? The dew Of
love is failing; o whitening heart, re-
vive. "And why are thou disquieted
within me?' What cause is there to
break the repose Of thy heart? Where
fore indulge unreasonable sorrows
which benefit no one, fret rhyself and
dishonor thy God? Why overburden
myself with forebodings? Hope in
God, or wait in God" There is need of
patience, but there is ground for hope.
The Lord cannot but avenge his own
elect. The Heavenly Father will not
stand by and see his children trampled
on forever, as surely as the sun is in
the heavens, light must arise for the
people of God, though for while they
may walk in darkness. Why, then,
should we not be encouraged and lift
up our head with comfortable hope?
For 1 shall yet praise him. Times
of complaint will soon end and sea-
sons of praise will begin. Come, my
heart, look out of the window, borrow
the telescope glass, forecast little.
and sweeten thy chamber with sprigs
of the sweet herb of hope. ''Who is
the health Of my countenance and my
God?" My God will clear the burrows
from my brow and the tear marks from
my cheek; therefore will L lift up my
head and smile in the face of the
storm.''-C. H. Spurgeon.
