ONE OF PALMER'S ORDERS.
Sought to Dishanchisc An
Former Confederate Soldiers

Frankfort, XIV, September s.
General Palmer. ihc National Demo
cratic nominee for President, was
military governor of Kentucky in
1865. just before the August cleo
ton of that year he issued an order,
which, if Il could have been enforced,
would have practically disfranchisep
nearly every Democrat or Southern
sympathizer in the State. Divested
of preamble it reads:
'First-All rebel soldiers. whcth
er paroled or not. and without re.
gard to the fact that they have or
have not taken any of the oaths pre-.
scribed by law, or executive, or mill
tary orders, or have registered un
der orders from the headquarters OF
the Department of Kentucky.
'Second-All guerillas and others
who, without belonging to the regu.
lar rebel military organization, have
taken up arms aguinst the govern
mont or people of Kenturky, or any
other State or Territory.
"Third-All persons who, by act
or word, directly or indirectly, gave
aid, comfort or encouragement to
persons in rebellion. This applies
to all persons who have voluntarily
acted MS scouts or spies for rebel or
guerilla forces, who have voluntarily
furnished rebel with food or clothing,
horse or arms or money, or have
harbored, concealed or otherwise
aided or encouraged them.
"Fourth-All persons who were
or have been directly or Indirectly
engaged in the civil service of the
late so.callad provisional govern
ment of Kentucky, or who have in
any way submitted to either of said
pretended governments are disquali.

"All persons of the classes afore-
said are required to abstain fron all
interference with elections, and will
if they shall i'll any manner intefere
therein by voting or by appearing at
the polls, will be at once arrested
and held for military trial,
"Aid will be given tocivil authori.

suffered terribly from indigestion.
He could hardly keep anything on
his stomach. What stayed. was not
properly digested and gave him ter

This is not nm uncommon case
Dyspeptics don't get enough nour

They may eat enough, but they

MORE PROOF OF COERCION.

Judging from the reports of the
progress of the campaign we see in
our Virginia cxclinr goa aud from the
rapidity with which Bryan Sewall
c'nbs arc multiplying in rural dis
! tiicts it would seem that the decov
ticket is not lccoying to any alarm
ng extent ill the State IN large.
Aud This affords additional evil

whcro there arc cooperation employ
oes that the decoyiies and cutting
any peicoptidle figure. on from the
lines of railroad and where men are
not on u payroll the disaffected Dem
ocrat is o rarity.
In view of this contrast it is utter
ly absurd for the corporations to
claim that their campaign against
Eryan aud Sewall is not one OF CO
ertion, and that there employees are
at libertp to vote rs they please. No
more conclusive proof of the real ma.
ture of their 80 called campaign of
education could be adduced than is
afforded in the disparity between the
number of gold Democrats in the
rural communities and the number
in the cities and towns where corpo
ration laborers, mechanics and clerks
constitute any considerable part of
the population.
That there arc in our cities and
towns some boiling Democrats WHO

these have no sympathy with the

THE MAINE ELECTION.

1t is wholly probable that the Re
publicans of Maine will roll up to dav
the biggest majority ever given their
party in that State, which has been
a Republican stronghold. Mr.. Man
ley has been modest in his estimates
of the size of the victory he has al
ready won, but there is reason to
suspect that his moderty is only
bred of desire to write after The
vote is counted that it exceeded his
greatest expectations.
Since 1872 Maine has been car.
ried against the Republicans only
once-in 1880, when the Green
backs and Democrats fused, and ev
en- then the fusionist won by only
1S9 plurality. Two years ago it gave
the Republican candidate for Gov
ernor total vote of 69,599 and n
plurality of 3S,97S. In 1902 it gave
Harrison plurality of 1870.
! In this years situation is nothing
to indicate any increase in the Demo.
cratic strength. Mr. Sewall's posi-
ton on the national ticket is large
ly Offset by the descension among
Maine Democrats springing from
tue amendment OF the State platform
and ticket to accord with the action
taken at Chicago. The Republi
canss, too, recognizing the impor-
tance of a September State" in in
fluencing public opinion, have made
strenuous efforts to get out in un.
precedented vote, while the Demo
cratic National Committee, admit

ton, has done nothing. But more

the Ninth District are so very anx.
ious for joint discussions between
the candidates, let them bring their
man Walker to Tazewell next

would give Judge Williams great
deal of pleasure to divide time
with the General every day next

GEN. WALKER, in his speeches,
acknowledges his life for the last
sixty years has been mistake.
That he has been wrong on all the
great issues that have confronted
the country, or at least the Demo

that party until recently, but now
the scales have fallen from his
eyes. In other words, during the
years of his youth and the prime
of liic,h lie did not have mind enough
to decide "where he was atu and
