WITHIN AN INCH OF WAR
THE SITUATION VERY GRAVE ON
THE GRECiAN FRONTIER.
Armies of 100000 Each Face One
Another, and May be Left to
Fight it Out.

Athens, Greece, April 13.-1'he from
tier situation is developing slowly, for
two reasons. In the first place, bad wea-
|ther-snows, rain and bitterly cold winds
have made campaigning in the noun
famous districts, anything but a picnic,
and have retarded all movements. In
the second place, intentional or otherwise,
all dispatches are being considerably de-
layed, not unusual occurrence since the
beginning of the present crisis.
But if the development is slow, it is
none the less menacing and an open out
break of hostilities. or a back down ON
the part of one or the other, or both
countries interested, cannot be much
longer delayed, as the strain of maintain
ing armies of about 100000 men each in
the field is being felt with a steadily
growing severity by both Turkey and
Greece, so that a declaration of war
would be welcomed by either side with
a feeling of relief.
The powers are still trying to avert war
with little prospect of success. 1t is stat
ed that the French Ambassador ut Con-
stantinOple NJ. Gambon, has been in
Structed to draft an autonomous cOnstitu-
ton for the island of Crete allowing the
Cretans to choose their own Governor
and providing for a simultaneous Greek
and Turkish evacuation of the island.
L is feared these efforts will turn out to
have been made too late.

THE KENTUCKY MUDDLE.
Republicans Will Give Hunter one More
Chance To-day.

frankfort, KY, April 13.-To-day's
session for Senatorial balloting was
spiritless at the beginning The Demo
Gratis of both factions and the anti-Hun-

swering either to the preliminary roll
call or to that for a ballot the result
being exactly the same as yesterday, ex-
cept as to the number of votes received
by Hunter which was 81.
Mr. Johns moved to adjourn but the
Republicans resisted and by vote of
81 noes to no yeas, the assembly refused
| to adjourn.
The President ruled a call Of the House
was the only thing in order except the
motion to adjourn.
Finally the Republicans asked the call
of the House, and the gold Democrats
| moved to adjourn. The latter prevailed
| The gold Democrats say that Blackburn
has refused to do anything for Martin,
and tomorrow they will make quorum
and give Hunter one more chance.

before any report by the grand jury had

TO CEASE BREAKING QUORUMS.
Frankfort, Ky, April 13.-The gold
| Democrats in caucus tonight decided to
break no more quorums in the balloting
for United States Senator. They admit
| that Hunter is liable to be elected now,
but they say that the Blackburn men,
who refuse to support Martin, will be re-
ISpOnsible for the result. If Hunter is not
elected after n few trials, they will de-
mand that he retire. They are determin-
ed that if they cannot elect a gold Demo

evade the preceding platform. The party
struggle which eliminated in the Chica
go convention, of necessity alienated a
portion of the party. The party was
placed in the position where it was COM
PEELED to endorse the financial policy Of
the President, or adhere to the doctrines
and traditions of the party. The posi-
ton taken by the Democratic party in
1896 will not be surrender. If you
doubt the permanency Of the Chica go
platform as a party creed, go among the
rank and file of the party and measure
the zeal and enthusiasm which that plat
form has aroused and you will realize the
impossibility of taking backward step.
MONEY is THE QUESTION.
True, the present administration is
seeking to turn public attention to the
tariff question. but if our reasoning is
we'll founded, an increase Of taxes cannot
restore prosperity to the producers Of
wealth. If the Dingley bill brings gen.
eral and permanent prosperity the Demo
cratic party will not be in a position to
win contest by opposing it. If, ON the
other hand, the Dingley bill proves a dis
appointment to those who advocate it,
our position of 1896 will be strengthened
and public attention will be riveted upon
the fact that the cause of financial de-
preston is to be found in our monetary
system.
There is much in recent events to en-
courage the followers of Thomas Jeffer-
son. The spring elections indicate a
growing sentiment along the lines of the
Chicago platform. In fact the elections
which have taken place show so great
a gain that the Republican party may now
be considered "A minority party 1T has
but one hope of escape from the wrath
to come and that is to secure bimetal-
lism by international agreement, before
the people of the nation have another OPP
portunfty to speak at the polls. While
we who believe in independent bimetal-
lism generally regard an internati tional a
greement as neither necessary nor pos
sible. we may well hope for success to
any who make the attempt to secure
foreign assistance. If our opponents sue
ceed in opening the mints of other nations
as we'll as their own mints, we shall re-
joice, because the condition Of the people
will be improved and they will be able to
proceed with other remedial legislation.

ROTATION OF CROPS.

Without 1t the Fertility of Soil Cum
not BE Maintained.
One should always farm in such way
as to maintain the fertility of the soil.
If the farmer raises and sells off the
farm grain and hay to such an extent
that there is not enough fertilizing ma
terial returned to the soil to preserve it's
fertility, he is on the road to ruin as far
as the fertility of the land is concerned.
The time will come when either he or
those who come after him will find
themselves on poor, worn-out farm
that refuses to yield them support,
and the farm will have to be abandoned.
The only road to successful farming lies
in keeping some kind of live stock to
consumetbe greater part of what grows
out of the soil, and carefully saving and
applying the manure.
The man who thinks his soil mex
haustible is mistaken, and if he lives
on it long enough will find it out. rhe
farm is the farmers bank, and fertility
il the cash deposit which may be
checked out. No man ever had so much
money in bank but that he, in time,
would get to the end OF it it he contin-
ually checked out more than he put in.
1t is advisable in all localities to raise
different crops on the farm and prac-
tice q regular system of rotation, rare
ly having the same crop on any given
field more than one year wi thout some
other crop intervening. And in this ro-
tation clover ought to come in every
third or fourth year. A crop of clover
will add materially to the productive
ness of the farm. Its long roots pene-
trate the subsoil, thus breaking it up and
improving the mechanical condition
and bringing up fertility from below.
