LEXINGTON is never without lite SEN
cation and the one il has now is hot
stuff, Some time ago, Gov. Bradley re-
ceived a letter in woman's hsndwrit-
ing signed III. NJ. johnson" and mailed
at Lexington, in which the writer se-
verelv criticised the appointments Of
Mrs. Judge Cantrell and Mrs. :. A,
CHARLES 70 be commissioners to the Ten
nessee Centennial. Mrs. Csntrell wss
spoken OF in very uncomplimentary
terms and Mrs. Charles was character
lied as inferior to a chamber mzid in
standing or intelligence. Mrs. Cantrell
wanted to whip Mrs. ] Fletcher john
son over it, believing her the author,
and will probably have to stand a slO,-
900 suit, but Mr.. Charles tried another
cue. He had the letter photographed
and employed an expert to examine it
in connection with Mrs. Eugenis Dun
lap Potts writing, and he pronounced it
decidedly similar. On hearing it, Mrs.
Potts denied that she had anything to
do with the letter, and those who know
her are satisfied she would do nothing 30
base. The matter has made Mr.. George
Denny put on bis war paint and tell the
newspaper scribes what he is going to
do to Charles, declaring that not drop
of cowsrdly blood courses in his veins
and that he intends to see his sister-in-
law through, no matter what means be
has to resort to. AS Mr.. Denny has kill
ed his man and as it is known that he is
brave to the bone, we are holding our
breath in dread OF a terrible tragedy in
the bluegrass capital.

THE Hon. Pryor J. Force, who never
was in it much, and not at all since his
county went against him on the curren-
CIV question, has at last read the hand
writing on the wall and retired from the
race for Congress. Though willing to
accept the Chicago ticket and platform,
he says the gold democrats claim that he
has sacrificed his convictions on the
altar Of Congressional ambition and the
silver men say he lie just after votes. In
this case both sides may be right. At
any rate, Mr.. Force does well to accept
the inevitable. The silver men are in
the saddle now and we hope will lead US
to that peaceful and prosperous haven
they have promised. The ret rement OF
Mr.. Force leaves Mr.. Thompson in full
possession of the situation and he will
be declared the nominee without the
formality and expense Of primary cleo
ton, besides saving the srousing of bad
feelings, usually engendered by such
elections.

Gov. BRADLEY is sspguine soul. He
says that Kentucky will go for Mckinley
by %, 900, and that the talk about republi-
cans being for free silver is all bosh. In
the great State OF Pulaski, he knows but
one, and that must be Allie Lewis. The
governor ought to come out this way If
he wants to see free silver republicans.
We do not know that they will vote for
Bryan and Sewall, because most republic
cans vote like sheep follow the bell
wether, but We can name number who
are for the white metal and some say
thew will vote for it's advocates.

There has been another decline In
silver, this time to GO cents an ounce. Az
this price the bullion value OF the silver
dollar is exactly 81 cents. The Mexican
dollar, which was quoted only few days
ago at IS cents, was quoted Tuesday in
New York at 5l3.
The Cincinnati Enquirer says; The
spectacle presented to the country, by
the acts of ownership Of Mark Hanna
over Msjor Mckinley, has never bad q
parallel. He never was very sgeres'
sive man, but he did have something to
say Indeed, a good deal to say in times
past. Take for example his vote for the
Bland free silver bill, and for the resolu
ton declaring the bonds all payable in
standard silver dollars, and his cham
pioning OF the Mckinley tariff bill; his
break to be nominated for president at
ipolis in 1872 against Harrison, and
his skilful strsddle on the silver ques-
ton in late wears. These all savored OF
free will, but he has none now. Hanna
has IL in charge.
