The Breckenridge news. (Cloverport, Ky.) 1876-1955, 1897-03-17

Now II we know anything about con-
ventions, and especially Democratic
conventions, the distinguished body
which met at Hardinsburg ten days ago
and put out ticket was strongly indica-
tive OF success. There were a few per-
sonal chickering's and cross-firings, always
to be found at such gatherings, and
where the personal friends OF candidates
are worked up to an unusual fever of
political excitement, but upon the whole
1t was an evidence that they were not
there 10 kill time. 1t was a represe nta-
tive body. The best men from all sect
ions OF the county were there participa-
ting. They tried TO put out ticket that
would win, and We believe they sue
ceeded. OF course we can't take into
account the heart aches OF those who
didn't get there. We are not able to tell
them how it was just now, but this we
hope will all be arranged, II II isn't done
already. 'Tisn't worth while TO treasure
these shortcomings in our hearts. No
party can succeed, or ever did succeed
at it. The cry has been for the last six
months that this fight must be won. II
you are still Of that opinion, wheel into
line.

The Hon. Herman A. Hasslock, the
genial and clever ex-President of the
Tennessee Press Association, is favorably
mentioned for the position now held by
the Hon. Van Leer Polk, Consul Gener-
al at Calcutta, India. Mr.. Mckinley
could not appoint better man for the
place and we hope he will do it. The
News remembers Mr.. Hasslock's kind
attentions during our stay in Nashville
and to the members OF the Kentucky
Press Association in general and how
pleasant he made it for us. Mr.. McKin-
ley will make no mistake if he appoints
Mr.. Hassock.

WHICH DAY TO Celebrate
THIRD OR FIFTH OF JULY,
WHICH? FOURTH Is SUNDAY.
President Dole viii Proclaim for Same
Day as U. S.---Fourth of July Com
-mttee-Plans to Be Discussed.

The President has made it known
that in his proclamation setting aside
day for the celebration of the ami
versary of the Republic of Hawaii he
will select the same day that is declar.
ed by President Mckinley for the cele
bration of American independence.
The Fourth of July this year comes
on a Sunday. Heretofore, the custom
has been in the United States to de.
clare the day following the Sunday
the Fourth, the day for the celebra-
that President Mckinley will vary
from the rule, so that the people in
Honolulu may well count on Monday
July 5, as the day set aside to cele-
brate. The Peru, due next Tuesday
will probably bring President McKin-
ley's proclamation.
The members of the American com
mittee, appointed last June for the
celebration of the American independ-
ence, will meet at the Arlington this
evening in response to Chairman Geo
w. Smiths call. The committee will
decide upon the celebration to be made
by the American colony in Hawaii
this year aside from the Hawaiian
demonstration.
1t is argued by some of the commit.
teemen that it will be impossible for
the Americans to add much to the
celebration on the Fourth, as the Ha-
waiian committee have the entertain
ment pretty well covered. Last year
the Americans gave a grand ball, but
owing to the elaborate display of fire.
works arranged for the evening of
July 5, it would not be practicable to
hold a dance on that night. The plan
of giving a ball on the evening OF
July might be considered. The lit.
erary part of the program was assign
ed to the American committee last
year.
A few of the committee are urging
a separate and distinct celebration OF
the Americans this year.
1t gives the entire committee the
greatest pleasure that American Min.
lister Sewall and his family will be
here to enjoy the demonstration OF
true American patriotism on the part
of the American subjects.

swears that the signature on. the docu-
ment is genuine, and so charges Tong
Hau with perjury.

No subject in connection with dairy
ing is receiving more attention. or is ap-
parently more needful of same, thanthat
of the harmful bacteria and disease
creating germs existing in milk or capa-
BILE of development in it. This is espec-
tally true of the tuberculin or consump-
tive germs, the appallingly dangerous
Importance of which is rapidly becom-
ing more generally apparent.
1t is found that the centrifugal separ-
ator, and particularly the "Alpha" milk
dividing disc system now used in the
DE LAVAL machine, gathers and holds
in the bowl of the separator practically
all the filth, fibrous and feculent matters
contained in the milk, including the
bacteria germs, and it is certain that
this feature in the alpha" dies is of
the most importance.
The CUMMING BIRD" or No. 0, the
smallest of the De Laval Cream Separa-
tors, possesses all the advantages of the
larger styles of the "Alpha" machines,
and is designed for popular household
and small dairy use, from the family
buying it's milk and wishing to turn
part of it into cream or butter as want
ed, to the private family or farmer hav-
ing less than 6 to COWS. It's capacity
is 175 pounds.
A larger size is the IMPROVED
"BABY" No. 2, intended for diaries of
from to 10 or 20 cows; and often used
in larger ones. It's capacity is $50
pounds.
Amongst the many advantages to be
derived from the use of the De Laval
Separator are: Betterment of quality,
saving from 20 to so per cent, of cream
saving of skim milk and saving of time,
labor and plant.
o . We sre disposing of these Ut a oonsid-
erable reduction on former prices, so as
to place every dairy farmer in a posit-
ion to possess one.
We have also CYLINDER CHURNS

JAPS NOM TALKING CABLE
NEXT PROPOSITION EXPECTED
FROM THEM.
Editor Ishilawa Engaged In Securing
Facts and Figures for Moneyed Men
of Toxic and Yokohama.

1t is more than probable that the
next cable proposition will come from
japanese capitalists, and the chances
are that if they once take up the mat
ter there will be no quibbling over ex.
elusive franchises and subsidies. Mr.
Ishikawa the Japanese editor now in
the city. has been quietly getting to.
gether all the information possible on
The subject. with view to making an
exhaustive report, on his return home
to capitalists whom he represents.
Mr.. IShikawa is not a novice in fl
nancial matters. He has had the ad-
vantage of a practical business train
ing, and in his editorial work pays
special attention to the financial ques-
tons of the day. He is also a promi-
nent member of the Toxic Economic
Society. The Society spent several
evenings in discussing the proposition
of a trans-Pacific cable and finally
delegated Mr.. Ishikawa and two other
members to prepare an exhaustive re-
port on the matter.
In discussing the affair with Star
representative, Editor Tshikawa said
year by year the necessity of tele-
graphic communication between jap
an and the United States becomes
more apparent. Our political and
f,f, ,i,.I t,,t
more and more intimate. The recent
establishment of three large steam
ship lines between Yokohama and San
Francisco and Puget Sound emphasiz-
ed this need. The transaction of bust
ness with Pacific Coast ports over lines
of telegraph that extend three-quar-
ters of the way around the globe, and
require so many transfers, is unsatis-
factory, at least, to say nothing of the
enormous expense it entails.
Our business men are awakening
to che tact that if anything is to DC
done in the near future. they must
| take the initiative in the matter. II
it is not an easy problem to solve, but
it is much easier, to say the least, than
was the Atlantic cable, quarter of a
century ago. The problem is merely
to ascertain how it may be laid and
operated on paying basis.
According to my best information
the estimated cost of laying a cable
from Yokohama to San Francisco. via
the Hawaiian islands, is from $1O,OOO..
600 to $12,OOO,OOO. My plan is to have
Japan shoulder the burden of the eX.
pense-say, one half, or little more
than one half; the United States tc
take the second largest block, and
| Hawaii the rest. OF course this is
merely a rough outline statement.
am prepared, however, to state that
the japanese block of stock will be
paid up quickly if the proposed plar
! goes through"

The Marshal believes that through
this method of punishment he is
effectively breaking up the various

not increased, but the Marshal believes
that it is far more desirable to put an
end to gambling, as the law requires,
than to utilize it as a source of rev
enme.

DR.. Heller Talks of Resources of the
Great Island-People Not SO Savage
AS Represented-Nine Months Trip.

1T will not be long now, believe,
before the wilds of Borneo, as we now
hear them spoken of, will be trans
formed into fertile and productive
lands,' said DIR. II. NJ. Heller last eve
ming, at the Hawaiian Hotel, while re
lating some of his experiences in that
interesting island. DIR. Heller and
Arthur Harrison, Jr., are here from
Philadelphia en- rote for Borneo. They
will be joined by DR.. Furness, and
possibly Jamie Wilder of Honolulu in
their expedition.
ut will be surprising to many peo-
pie to learn that there are over ESQ.,
600 square miles in this island, which
is much larger than Java, a sister
island. The population of BOrneo is
roughly estimated at 100000, while
600 people.
About one half of the worlds
supply of sago comes from the jungo
trees of Borneo. A great amount of
pepper is also raised there, some cof-
fee and fruits. Up in the northern
part of the island the people are be-
ginning to cultivate tobacco, which is
pronounced to be of very excellent
quality. The land on Borneo is very
fertile indeed and everyone who has
seen anything of the island insists
that it is destined to be another Java.
"The British, Dutch and natives hold
possessions on the island Rajah
Brooks nephew, once an English sub
ject, is an Independent King. The
British own Northern Borneo, Sandal
kan being the capital. Kuching, the
capital of Sarawak, is one of the most
important population centers. The
town of Pontianak, located on the
equator, is the capital of Dutch Bor-
neo. The Dutch colony is controlled
by resident Dutch governors. Bru-
nei which is native colony, is ruled
by the Sultan.
"On our former expedition into the
wids of Borneo, continued Dr. Hell
Ter, 1--WE encountered little difficulty
in making our way. Your Mr.. Wilder
was with us on this journey. We are
determined to cross the island this
time if it is possible to do so. We will
go to an entirely different part of the
island than before and coant on be-
ing away about nine months, or more.
If we are not troubled with fever or
sickness, I believe we will be success
full, for there will be no trouble with
the natives. Their savageness is
greatly overdrawn. 1t is true that
they fight bitterly for their freedom
to get out of the clutches of band of
slave hunters, but when friendliness
is manifested they usually recipro-
