Flight of the Butterflies.

One of the most beautiful sights in
the world is the annual migration of
butterflies across the isthmus Of Pana-
ma. Where they come from or whittier
they go no one knows. and though
many distinguished naturalists have at
tempted to solve the problem it is still
as strange a mystery as it was 70 the

Mr.. H. R. Prewitt has been
chosen Chairman of the executive
committee of this Congressional
district. A wise selection it was,
for Mr.. Prewitt is first an uncom-
promising Democrat, regular, in
whom the people have confidence.
Then he is man we'll balanced
and ever on the alert for flank
movements. The enemy have no
use for him, for when engaged in
campaign work his are sleepless
nights. He is a fine organ
User and his methods for getting
out votes never fails to bring them.
The campaign will be conducted
on high plane, where the princi-
pies of the great party will be UNI
derstood by the people. This
is not day in which men are pre-
ferred, the doctrines govern the
action of the people at the polls.
Democratic doctrines will be pro-
and the aims of the Re-
publican party exposed, hence we
can only expect greater Demo
cratic victory in this, the Tenth
c Congressional district. Already
Mr.. Prewitt has secured the
pledges of some of our most prom
Inent speakers, one of whom is
the Hon. Joe w. Bailey, of Texas,
who is expected here Court-day.
The orator of the Ashland district,
Mr.. Settles, will also be here and
f our Republican brethren are
not prepared to receive our doc
;rines they will have an opportu-
1ity to refute them by meeting US
with their most distinguished
speakers and most powerful rea-
;onerS.

CITY OWNERSHIP.

Recently when electric plants,
water and gas plants have been
put in, it has been at the expense
of the cities, and the ownership
has been vested in them. By
this means cities with their own
water. gas and electricity have
been enabled to offer special in
ducements to manufacturing enter
prises. The individual wants to
get rich off the earnings of his
plant and the city is not DESTROYS
of making money, but Of reducing
rates, thereby inducing factories
to locate and invite capital from
other places less favored. Mt.
Sterling should own her plants.
OF course there is no wrong in in
dividual ownership; but cities
should protect their people and be
in position to offer such induce
ments as will add to our popula-
ton. Recently Atlanta, Georgia,
one Of our most thriving cities.
has become the owner of her cleo
trio plant, and others are follow
ing. No argument is more con-
vincing than action of others
backed on an actual experience.
If the profits to individual owner
ship were given to the consumer,
much less would be his rates and
the more would he be in position
to compete for trade. The firm
that is worth most to a city is the
one that draws most from other To-
Calities to give circulation through
its laborers. Hence the change
from private to city ownership is
continually going on.

BORROWING FOR THE
GOLD STANDARD.

The Bankers Monthly for Sep
TENDER has the following among
its "Notes Of Interest to Bank
ers:"
New JAPANESE LoAN.--The presi
dent of the Bank of japan is about tC
visit London to negotiate new loan
This borrowing is necessary to enable
Japan to maintain her gold standard
"The Bankers Monthly is GER
tainly right about the necessity for
borrowing to maintain the gold
standard. But why maintain a
standard in Japan, in the United
States or anywhere else which
puts a mortgage on labor and
forces loan after loan with a per-
petually increasing toll to be taken
from the products of our indus
tries and given to the foreigners
who impose the gold standard
upon ns7
"And if it takes bonds and more
bonds, and still more bonds; inter
est and more interest, and still
more interest; taxes and more
taxes, and still more taxes to
maintain the gold standard, will
the Bankers Monthly kindly in
form an interested public when it
is all to end, and what it is to end
in ?" ...
We would most respectfully re-
quest Dur gold standard friends to
seriously consider the above facts.

We hear of no little complaint
by our good citizens on account
Of the much swearing INDUCED in

negroes and vulgar and profane
men who have been taught better
and who should be made to do

thorities are enforcing, in which
this unknown champion ofanarchy
and immortality says some very
funny things. In fact "Uno" is a
humorist-unconsciously so oil
course-but that only makes it
more amusing. He writes about
a law that only cumbers the statute
books working hardship on
the law abiding and giving advan-
tage to the lawless. Mark Twain

VOID OF SHAME.

Not long ago we saw young
man who had promised to serve
God and who is a member now
in good standing in one Of our
churches, come out Of a bar-room
picking his teeth and eating crack
ers. Can man serve God in a
bar-room drinking1 When they
do this have they not violated
that sacred pledgea Such mem
bers are vile sinners who have of
their own volition lied to God and
the church is no place for them.
To turn such out Of the church
would be dislodging a mighty
burden.

THE CHICAGO PLATFORM.

I'm tables quoted in Senator
Pettigrew's great exposure of the
millionaire oligarchy, Mr.. Shear
man, the well known statistician,
shows that the United States are
practically owned by less than
50, 900 people, constituting less
than one in 500 of the popula-
ton.
"This Plutocratic oligarchy con-
trolls the Mckinley administration
absolutely. 1t is openly nullify-
ing and defying the antitrust laws,
the Interstate Commerce law,
and all other Legislation intended
to check its revolutionary designs
Of supplanting government of the
people with government by mil
ionaires.
"The only hope the country
has of safety, the only chance Of
stability for the government, lies
in upholding the principles Of the
Chicago platform. Stand by theml
Don't pair! Fight"
These are the truthful utter
ances Of the mississippi Valley
Democrat and Journal of Agricul-
ture." 1t is appalling to realize
that Of a population of $4,000, 900
and more of people, $3.50, 900

lust so, no one would doubt
this save those dependent on the
public crib. Under a Republican
administration, all public patron
age belong to that party, they
should have it and most generally
they get it, and so it should be
with Democratic administration.
A bolter is neither flesh nor fowl,
and has claims on nothing but
from its kind. Democratic or Re-
publican awards do not belong to
to him. But, says one, how do
you know a bolter under the

Democratic bolter is more dan
gerous than an avowed enemy.
For the one fights in the open

from ambush and is no less than
a party destroyer. To help such

patronage is nothing short Of Civ

you bear in mind that he will pay
out in fines more than his Sunday
profits. The advantage is with the
law abiding in that he makes as
much money as before and has his
rest in the bargain.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1898-10-11

Our esteemed contemporary, the
Sentinel-Democrat, had an article
last week in opposition to the en-
forcement Of the Sunday law, the
writer being masked with '1Uno. "
This concerning of the writer is
evidence that he is not lost to
shame, indeed, he is ashamed for
the people to know that he took
such a stand, or he is of the opin-
ion that his article would have
more force from an unknown
writer. We do not censure him,
for were we guilty of such utter
ances we, too, would play the
ostrich. The Sunday law is of
divine origin and what we see Of
it on our statute books is but a
copy from Him who created all
things in six days and rested the
seventh. The Council of Mt.
Sterling is wise in that they have
chosen to enforce divine law,
rather than obey the presumptu-
BUS utterances of emo"

WATER WORKS.

There are some people who car
be made to believe anything, even
from the unscrupelous. In order
to make opposition to the water
works some men who are satisfied
with Mt. Sterling at a standstill
and who are opposed to water
works are telling it around that
the old company which was, COM
posed of Lewis Apperson, M. S.
Tyler,W. T. Tyler, L. I. Chiles and
j. W. Hedden, would, in the event
water works is voted and con-
structed, come in for pay for the
franchise Of which they were for
merly owners. The fact is, this
company, these gentlemen or any
other set of men or company has
any right of ownership to this
franchise except the city of Mt.
Sterling, for to Mt. Sterling alone
it belongs. 81 VI.
The Mt. Sterling Water works
Company sold their franchise to
John P. Martin, Of Xenia, Ohio.
To him it was transferred and by
him the company was paid. Mr..
Martin proceeded to construct an
electric light plant and water
plant. The former he completed
and for the reason he could not
raise more money he could not pro-
coed with the water plant. The
ownings of Mr.. Martin were forced
into the hands of receiver and
Mr.. G. w. Baird was appointed by
the Court receiver, and under an
order Of the Court he sold the
electric light plant and the water
plant franchise to G. W. Harper, of
Cedarville, o., who sold it to J. NJ.
Pickrell, of this city, and Mr..
Pickrell conveyed the water fran
chise to the city, so it belongs to
the city. Each individual thereof
has an interest in the franchise
and those fellows who are going
about telling such stories know
nothing of the facts.
There is no job in this water
works proposition and the stories
told are only perversions from
those misers who have plenty and
their desire of greed is such that
they would rather see the poor
starve than prosper. Only few
oppose water works and we are
glad to make this statement to the
world for it is proof of enlighten-
ment, progress and prosperity.
