,na, ,be other side proposes TO perpetrate
fraud. and every partisan Is declaring
that he will spill blood to prevent inc
oppoSition from stealing the victory. The
same correspondent makes the following
,o,..o,co IN the Goebcl election law:
The Goebei election la~ is the cher rae
tor in the condition which Tow eNists,
The ant-Goebel Democrats and the ke-
rnb,cans claim that under its working
',ornous frauds may be committed. Ry
dc rrovision the vote Of The whole state

non composing the state Election Board.
,rh.so three men may he and are at
nrosent members OF the same party

From their decision in an election or
contest there can be no appeal. In them
solves they constitute a sovereign tri-
bunal This board IS -perpetuating.
for IL one member Of IL dies or resigns,
the two remaining members name sue
ccssor. II two die or resign, the third
fills the vacancies.
Before an election this board meets
and names for each county In the state
three commissioners. who in turn name
four officers Of election for each precinct
I'm thcir respective counties. ne Jaw re-
uuires that two or three precinct officers
shall be members Of the opposite party
but in case Of contest requiring a vote
the clerk Of the election has no voice
Consequently the deciding vote in this
election will be cast in nearly every in
stance by a GOebel man. As soon as the
voting is over and the count is over the
ballots are burned, thus destroying any
evidence of fraud that may have ex-
isted
Could there be better argument than
this against bossism and election trick
cry? The people will not submit to st, and
the party which attempts either device
for perpetuating its power will undoubt-
edly bring down wrath upon its own
head. The most remarkable thing about
the contest in Kentucky IS that some Of
the Democrats now in revolt aided in the
passage Of this same Goebel election law.
Now they fear that they are about to be
hoist by their own petard.

THE SITUATION IN KENTUCKY.

The political situation in Kentucky is
alarming. The people are worked up to
the highest pitch OF excitement, and
correspondent tells us that the voters
are arming themselves as never before in
such q contest. The revolt primarily
was against Goebellsm, against The high

Schopp entered a drug store and bought
five cents worth of carbolic acid. She
seemed TO be composed and smiled as she
received the drug Nearly fifty persons
were standing about the drug store at
the time but none noticed Mrs Sch0pp
until she screamed. Just as the men
turned they saw her drop q bottle from
hre lips and fall 10 the sidewalk She
was taken into the drug store and every
thing was done TO save her. but she died
in ten minutes when Schopp saw his
dead wife he became frenz.ed with grief,

there are many orders and brother
hoods in India-is the ancient Indian
school known In history as the Illu-
minati, or the "Order of Light"
This statement makes Mrs. Huntley
the rival of Mrs. Besant and Mrs. Ting
ley, both of whom also claim to have re
ceived their instructions from a mem
Der of the same order. She does not,
however, lay undue stress on thisle
matter, and is quite frank in declaring
that she does not wish to join any So
ciety or to establish a sect. Her am
bition is to have her theories accepted
for university use for the teaching of
the young of both sexes certain essen
tial, long-neglectcd truths" She asks
for fellowship and cooperation with
members of every cult and shade of
belief and unbelief, her alleged pur
pose being that of the Darwins, HuX-
leys and Herbert Spencers. She also
admits that she is not n master, but
merly the pupil of the American
master, whose name she does not dis
close, simply because he is not yet
ready to speak in his own name.
Before referring to the contents of
her book, few words concerning Mrs.
Huntley's personality might not be
out of place. She Is a tall brunette, and
fluent conNersationalist on a wide va
riety Of subjects. Stanley Huntley her
husband, who died some 13 years ago,
was noted in his day as the author of
the "Spoopendyke" papers, series of
intensely humorous sketches based on
domestic affairs and infelicities of the
harmless sort. Mrs. Huntley wrote
some of these papers, and later did So
called literary syndicate work from
Washington. The humor, however, was
subordinated in her life when she be-
gan studying the vital questions of life
under the mysterious master" She
is n serious woman now, does not go
into society, and seldom visits place
of amusement. She has lived the life
of hermit for years to prepare her
self, mentally and spiritually, for the
proper execution of her philosophical
work.
Mrs. Huntley starts her "Harmonies
of Evolution" with these three PROPOSE
tions: /. There is no death; 2. Life after
physical death is a fact scientifically
demonstrable; 3. Life here and here
after has a common development and
a common purpose.
OF life hereafter she says:
"Men and women continue to occu-
py the same relative position in that
life as in this, In spiritual life, as in
this life, man particularly represents
law, order and knowledge, while wom-
an particularly represents peace, love
and all the aesthetic and ethical activ-'
tiles The student learns another and
still more important fact. He settles
for himself question that has been de-
bated for ages. lie discovers that men
and women In spiritnAI life continue

~ tirely new system of philosophy
is TO be given to the world by II woman.
And il the system is carried to as log
ical conclusion us is the first volume
devoted TO. II, the principles of the new
doctrine will attract attention wherever
men and women have learned to think.
Its exponent certainly possesses the
gift of reasoning to an extraordinary
degree, and knows how to present facts
as well rs theories forcibly and some
times convincingly.
Mrs. Florence lIuntley, now resi-
dent of Chicago, has, according TO her
own statement, devoted II years of
research and three of literary labor TO
the composition of a book which she
calls "Harmonics of Evolution: The
Philosophy of Individual Life, Based
Upon Natural Science as Taught by
Modern Masters of the Law"-the in
practical and speculative philosophy TO
be given TO the world through her
Mrs. Huntley claims that in the
year 1883 there came TO this country
IL master of the Inner Temple of the
brotherhood of India. He came to
personally instruct an American pupil
previously selected by the order. That
student, now a member of the order,
has been the authors instructor for
more than II years. During this time
Mrs Huntley has been specially in
structed and trained to fill Il certain de-
partment in the general plan and scope
Of the work; and for this reason her
work is sent out as one approved by
the entire order of the brotherhood of
India. The order here referred to-for

the individual love relation. Between
men and women on the spiritual side
exists the same irresistible attraction
which leads them into individual love
relations. This individual love rcla-
tlon must not be understood to mean
merely an imperfect aud altruistic
friendship. 1t means instead person
al and exclusive love and partnership
based upon n spiritual law of affinity.
This relation, therefore, is a more per-
manent one thare the average mar
riage here. 1t is a union based upon
spiritual, intellectual, aesthetic and
ethical sympathies."
This theory, however, is by no means
new one. Several famous writer's
have advanced it, notably Swedeuborg.
who devotes several chapters to hcuv-
enly marriages
OF death Mrs. Huntley says:
"Therc is no death. Instead, a man
has one life in two worlds. When he
leaves the physical body he simply
takes up life on the other side ns would
any stranger suddenly transported TO
some strange and unfamiliar country
lie takes up life under new conditions
while remaining in essence the same
man he was on earth. He is released
from physical exnctions and physical
activities. nothing more. lie continues
TO feel the same impulses, passions, APP
petites and desires that he had cnconr-
aged here. He is released from physic-
al toll, but not from activity. He does
not suffer pain through physical dis
ease. He is not, however, exempt from
pain"
On the subject of ''True Marriage"
on the human plane Mrs. Huntley be-
comes quite enthusiastic, saying among
other equally hcnlthful things:
Perfect marriage upon the physic-
al plane is scientific possibility. The
principle involved is the universal prin-
ciple of affinity. The process involved
is the effort of vibratory correspond
ence between two individuals of oppO-
site polarity. The effects Of marriage
are threefold in character: mathemat-
ical, harmonic and ethical. The mnthc-
MATES of marriage have to do with the
rates of vibratory activity in
the individuals only. The harmon
les of marriage have to do with
