TERMS ANNOUNCEMENT.
PROHIBITION BILL.

A bill which is now attracting
considerable attention in this State
is the Roberts Prohibition bill
which has been favorably reported
by the Senate committee having it
in charge.
By the provisions of this bill the
vote of an entire county and not
the vote of any precinct is to de-
eide whether intoXicants are to be
sold in any part of a county.
AS might be expected the
whiskey element and papers in
sympathy with it or those actuated
by mercenary considerations are
up in arms to defeat the bill. We
are told that "this very radical
measure should be defeated for the
reasons that it takes the control Of
the affairs in part of every city out
of the hands of the people thereof,
and if it becomes a law will double
the taxes of every citizen Of every.
city located in a county that votes
for local option"
In answer to the first reason we
would suggest that the people ola
county, in and out of town, have a
right to object to, restrain and
suppress any person or institution
which is detrimental or destruc-
tive to the peace, happiness and
welfare Of the people Of said coun-
ty. That the whiskey business is
thus destructive, we presume that
any thoughtful person will admit.
Volumes would be required to
set forth the fearful devastation
wrought by the use ofintoXicants.
We have no abuse for saloon keep
ers or their poor victims. We
pity them and trust that God who
is very merciful will spare them
until they see their great error and
abandon their pernicious business
and henceforth live for the good Of
their fellowmen.
In regard to the question Of
taxation we say that gladly would
we pay double our present tax if
by so doing the saloon with its
long train of evils could be Danish
ed from our midst, We recog-
nize some Of the difficulties which
attend the enforcement Of laws {
which are to protect the property, :
lives and characters Of our people. {
We are not to abandon the fight
against evil because our cherished {
plans Of assipration meet with op- ;
position.
Great moral reforms are not &C
comPlished instantly, SO perverse |
is the nature Of man. Let us
trust and labor that the obliga-
tons which bind man to man may t
be realized, that there will be a
readiness on the part Of all pri- {
Vate citizens and public officials to +
preserve the best interests of the '
people. '
If our readers have any fears {
that our Senator and Representa- S
live will not stand for the best in {
terest Of our State, give them an {
expression of your views. A
word Of encouragement will no
doubt be acceptable.

We are anxious to do a little good
in this world and can think of
pleasanter or better way tc do it that
by recommending One Minute Cough
Cure as preventive of pneumonia,
consumption and other serious lung
troubles that follow neglected colds,

Jim Scott laid in wait for Malcolm
Wells, who was with his (Scotts) best
girl on last Friday evening and struck
Wells on the head with a board /.
Wells is in q critical condition from
concussion of the brain. Scott Is in
jail. Both are colored.

The wisdom of an individual is
not equal to that Of a party. II
the Goebel election bill is the will
of the party, it is ours, but it oc-
ours to US that the people want a
fair count; that they want an hon
est expression of the people at
the polls. If Democratic, we
would demand that the count be
so, and if Republican, let them
have it. If the bill was so con-
structed that where the regular
authorized officers to do the
counting were Democratic, the
Republican comittee would be
permitted to appoint a like num-
Der of men to be approved by the
Democratic officers, to assist in
the counting or visa versa, always
having an equal number of Demo
Gratis and Republicans on the COM
pairing board, a fair and honest
vote free from misapprehensions
would be the result. Democrats
can only win by being fair. This
state is Democratic and should be
counted so and iii was Republi-
can We would not have it counted
Democratic. .

IN AN upRoAR.

Building and Loan Association
located at Lexington, KY, under
took to reorganize to conform tC
the law as interpreted by tht
Court of Appeals, but there were
some doubling Thomases who re-
fused to enter into the arrange
ment, and in order that all should
share alike it became necessary
for the company to go into liqui-
dalton, 1t therefore assigned,
Mr.. Bishop Clay, the former Sec
rotary Of the company, becoming
the assignee. This act created a
cyclone in some quarters Of the
organization, and some of the
stockholders proceeded to turn
lose their wrath. The folks up
here have had experience in the
liquidation of an organization in
trouble and hereby proceedto give
unasked for advice. Mr.. Clay
and the old board can settle the
affairs of the companyto better adj
vantage than others, because they
know its patrons, their ability,
and the best methods to be used
with each individual. A quarrel.
like unto the disgraceful one en-
gagged in Saturday can result in no
profit to the stockholders. The
court officials and attorneys will
be the only ones benefited.
In the case of the New Farm
ers' Bank, had the settlement
been left to those who knew its
patrons, our opinion was then and
is now that the depositors would
have gotten every cent due them
and the stockholders could have
shared the remaining assets and
possibly in the course of time
would have realized the greater
part ofthe amount invested. AS
it has been with this organization
Of the past SO will it be with the
Bluegrass Building and Loan Asso-
citation Of Lexington, if the stock
holders can not be patient and al
low those in power who know the
business to manage it.
Those inAamatory articles re-
fleCting on character are intended
for a purpose, the displacement of
the present board Of directors for
which would know abso-
lutely nothing ofthe business and
which would not be long in wreck
ing the institution. There are
hot heads in every organization
who delight in damaging epithets
and whose paths are seen in de-
If the stockholders
would consider their interest they
would have these fellows muzzled
Or Gagged speedily, Mr.. Clay and
lis associates are interested in
the institution pay out,
md if it can be done at all they
will do it. 'H.
We have devoted space to this
natter because our people are
argely interested in this company. !
We do not wish to see them sus-
ain any losses. Men and women
without any confidence in money
institutions should man,
zee their own money as they
would likely be better satisfied I
md the building and loan COM !
,any would be better off without
hem. ..

A Popular Loan.

War has come and with the al
vent Of war comes the question OF
war taxes and war prices. The
government will have 10 borrow
money and large sums of money.
1t will have to be heavy Borrower,
even if the increased taxation
which the members OF the ways
and means committee have been
considering should be imposed i'm
mediately. No possible increase
in revenue would bring in money
enough to meet the governments
needs while the war lasts, or bring
it quick enough.
Large loans will have to be
made and the question is being
agita,ed of making a popular loan,
giving the people l chance to aid
the country financially. Are the
people able to negotiate such a
Ioano Discussion on the subject
has developed some astonishing
figures as to the financial condi-
ton of the country. The circu
lation statement of the Treasury
department issued April 4 shows
that we have all enormous stock OF
gold in the country, almost $780,
600. 600. OF this the United States
treasury holds Sis, 900, 900 in the
gold reserve, the National banks
hold 5000, 900, 900 more and the
people have the rest. Men well
versed in the conditions estimate
that a popular loan of $500, 900, 900
conld be negotiated among our own
people, a $50 loan bearing : per
cent and the bonds thus issued
would be taken 1t par, with the
best security which can BE- had in
any market.

War is upon the nation and III
these trying times men show their
true co!ors, The gold bug has been
generously slandered yet the ties,
of the times does not show him
deficient in the truest heroism
Vanderbilt will build a warship,
Gould has rendered the use of his
YACHT to be fitted as cruiser. OF
Wanamaker will raise and equip 6
regiment and go with them per.
sonally TO the field. True patriot
ism is willing TO make sacrifices
These men are patriots, A com
pany of mi,lionaires sons has beer
recruited in New York 20 go TO the
front. and there Is every evidence
that when the times demand til,
plutocrats will make as willing
heros As the nation has.

advance to perform this noble deed
OF humanity, pledging to it if need
be their fortunes and their lives.
