THE RESOLUTIONS.


The Republicans of Kentucky, reposing
confidence in the justice and patriotism
of the people and believing that a clear
and unequivocal declaration of principles
is due from the party to voters. present
the platform for the consideration Of in
telligent voters:
We are opposed to the free and unlim-
ited coinage of silver, believing it would
involve the country in financial ruin. The
eold dollar is the best dollar, and the
least liable to fluctuations, and for these
reasons, and in order to conform our
standard to that of ether great CONNER
cial nations, we favor it as the standard
money of the United States, and the
maintaining on parity with it every
other dollar, silver or paper.
We favor tariff so regulated as to
project the interests of all classes Of our
citizens upon articles which may be sue
cessfully manufactured or produced in
this country. thus insuring good wages
to the laborer and home market for the
producers and in this connection we
favor the establishment of the doctrine
of reciprocity. We believe that such
system will defray every governmental
expense, gradually Equidate all indebted
ness restore confidence, put into motion
every wheel of industry. rekindle the
fires in our furnaces, re-eStabl1Sh the
markets for the product of our farmers
and relieve the undue excitement now
prevailing concerning the currency.
We believe in American policy which
will protect Americans and American in
terests in all parts of the world and will
maintain the doctrine of non-interference
in American affairs by the monarchieS Of
the east.
We sympathfze with the people of Cuba
in the struggle for independence and
trust the efforts may establish republic
based upon the intelligence and patriotism
of a free people.
we believe that the intelligence OF It's
citizens is the safeguard of the republic
and to that end We believe 1t is neces-
sary to maintain and extend our system
of free American schools.

LOUISVILLE. April 16-The Repubu-
can state convention completed IT'S la
bors and adjourned this afternoon after
endorsing the presidential candidacy OF
Governor Bradley, with second instruc-
ttons for Major Mckinley; adopting 2.
platform declaring for the gold standard
protection and reciprocity; expressing
sympathy with Cuba and elected four
delegates from the state at large TO the
ST. Louis convention, with alternates and
electors. From o'clock yesterday after
noon until this afternoon, the fight be-
ween the Bradley and Mckinley men was
waged increasingly, and the result is a
dog fall.
The governors friends organized the
convention and secured the endorsement
of his presidential candidacy, but the
Mckinley men forced recognition Of their
idol in the instructions for delegates and
broke the Bradley slate fer delegates. If
the Mckinley men had been asked at
the outsett to name their terms they
would not have asked more, for they
have at all times professed admiration for
Governor Bradley and willingness to
concede in the platform a recommends
ton of his fitness for the Office of preSi-
dent and instructions carrying the states
vote if the delegates were instructed for
Mckinley, when Bradley's name is with
drawn.
The liveliest fight in the convention was
that of the colored delegates to secure
representation among the national dele
gates and they won by the withdrawal Of
opposing candidates. Three of the dele
gates selected were on the original Brad
ley slate.

POLITICAL NOMINATIONS.

Unquestionably the power of giving
or Withholding assent to nominations,
if given or withheld not for the pur-
pose of regulating the ministerial la

the purpose of controlling political
elections, would be a dangerous pow

OF the church, or for dominating the
politics of the state? If used for the
former, then it is harmless and proper.
If for the latter. then it is clear vio-
iation of the American doctrine in re-
spect to the relations of church and
state, and all the evils portrayed by
Mr.. Lewis and many more would re-

quire what protection we have from
this improper use of that power.

STEALING ELECTRICITY.
Current Is Taken From Trolley Circuits
and Used In Houses,

II is asserted that the stealing of current
from, trolley circuits for use in houses, sa-
looms and stores is becoming very common.
This Is not surprising, in view of the ease
with which the tapping of the circuit can
be effected. A simple test for determin-
Ing the source of any suspected electric
lighting was put in practice recently with
conclusive results. A station superintend-
emit In passing a saloon noticed the cleo
trio lights go out and then start up bright
again, as the incandescent lights in the
trolley cars sometimes do. He thought
that was queer way for the lights sup
piled by his station to behave, and he de-
cided to Investigate Being familiar with
the technical differences between the cur
rent system for lighting and the method of
supplying electric power for the propul-
sion and illumination of cars, he knew
that by very simple experiment he could
lind out something more as to the source
of the supply of the current
A lighting company wires q building so
that any incandescent lamp in it can be
shut off or take. out without affecting the
Others. In railway plant the lamps are
fed in such a way that If one is shut off
all cease to glow. The superintendent
passed into q side room of the saloon and
quietly unsgewed one of the incandescent
bulbs. AS he expected, all the lights on
the same wire went out. On the follow
ing night the current supplying tho cleo
trio line on that street was, by agreement,
cut off at n certain tims. AT that moment
the illumination in the saloon ceased
When the current was turned on again,
the saloon was again lighted up. Exam
ination showed that the wire had been
tapped near the saloon, the connection with
the feed wire.. being made by means of
nail. A large number of similar taps
were found. In some cases the job had
been done by bogus 'station man," who |
had called regularly for payment of the
current supposed to have been consumed |

for she sleepeth at the noon hour and
might not give you the slipper if you
ask for it never so civilly."
"a hundred shekels of silver shall be
yours when You bring the slipper. +" Now
lyon witch, as the stranger had called
her, was no witch at all, but o good
fairy and one who had done Shere Ado
full many a kindness.
Come here again tomorrow and I
will see what 1 can do for YOU" said
Shere Ado.
When the stranger went his way,
Shere Ado went to the house of his good
friend the fairy and told her all that
the stranger had said.
"When l sleep tomorrow, you may
take the sandal from my foot, " said the
fairy.
So it came about that Shere Ado took
the sandal or slipper from the foot of
his friend and got his hundred shekels
Of silver.
"Great now is my wealth" said he,
"and 1 will give to the fairy the half
of the money, for was it not her slip
per. -
When the fairy received the fifty shek-
els of silver, she went outside the city
wall and sowed them in field which
she owned and then gave the field to
Shere Ado to be his very own, with all
that it contained.
Shere Ado did much good with his
money, and many a poor person was
helped in more ways than, you would
expect
The winter soon came, and Shere Ado
was now as poor as before, for he had
spent and given away all of his fifty
shekels of silver.
Water carrying was again his only
means of earning living. Not word
did the good fairy say until he was
stricken with the desert fever.
Then all Of his needs were supplied,
and some of the poor people whom he
had helped came to care for him the
best that they could.
In the spring, when Shere Ado was
fully we'll, there came a knocl. at his
door,
There stood the stranger who had
sought the slipper.
Because you would not rob my
sister, but took her slipper by her con-
sent, you have a new house and much
wealth. Come with me-" said the
stranger.
They went outside the city wall to
Shere ADDS field, and there had grown
a beautiful palace. There were men,
servants and maidservants, and every
shekel of silver which the fairy had
sown upon the field had grown to a pot
OF gold.
Shere Ado now asked the fairy to be
his good counselor. He thus used his
wealth so wisely that the caliph Chat is
what they called their king) bestowed
upon him title. and he was raised to
high honors.
The caliph had no son, and so in his
old age he appointed Shere Ado to be
king or caliph in his stead. "for," said
he, Zone who would not steal even an
old sandal for a hundred shekels of sill
yer will surely in all things be faithful"
