LIFE is a serious matter with Editor
Knott, of the Louisville Post, and he
rarely relinquishes his hold on direct
ing the affairs of the world and espe-
cially of the democratic party to even
to spit on his hands. Occasionally,
however, he lets up in the everlasting
grind and perpetrates a paragraph of
numor, Immediately relapsing into the
dull and dreary and almost mad with
himself for having done so. AS evil
dence that there is vein of humor in
everybody as there is latent heat even
in block of ice, we present this as
proof that Editor Knott is not entirely
devoid of fun; A man at Needersburg,
Ind, put 20 pounds of dynamite under
the kitchen stove to thaw out and went
away, leaving his family to watch the
stuff. On returning be found his fam
ly gone, having taken with them the

The Harrodsburg Sayings says it
had il from McChord himself that he

published that in the Louisville papers,
but no protestations of his avail against
cumulative evidence TO the contrary.
He is Goeoel's man and his nomination
Is a Goebel victory, obtained even over
attempted bribery by Hardin's friends.
The Sayings further asserts that our
conclusion that Hardin is not strong in
his home county, because the delega-
tion did not follow John b. Thompson 5
lead, is erroneous. He is strong, very,
very strong, but the delegation did not
like Thompson's procedure and resent

THE dollar banquet In honor of JET.
ferson, held In Grand Central Palace,
New York, was the biggest thing on
wheels. over 1900 men and AS women
partook OF 1t and drank in native wine
and oratory galore. Speeches we're
made by Mr.. Bryan, o. II. r. Belmont,
Hon. Charles A. Towne, Judge j. Il.
Tarvin, of Kentucky, and others, but
Bryan was, OF course, the central figure
and he is said to have "made the effort
of his life." All his points were tu-
multuously applauded, but his refer
ence to the United States as bully for
striking down the Filipino natives
created the greatest enthusiasm of the
night. There was mighty demonstra-
tion when he said it was this country
that inspired the Filipino with the love
of liberty. When Bryan finished there
was great rush to him on the plat
form, and he was almost suffocated In
the crush. OF the dinner, he said:
"This is the greatest dinner ever at
tended. think it the greatest ever
held in the United States. The hearts
of the people are all right"

800, 900 in cash, Federal mission and
a Federal Judgeship. II Monnett was
the immaculate creature he poses to be

err such efforts TO seduce him, instead of
waiting a month and then telling moth
ing worth repeating. Evidently, II it
be true that every man has his price,
the Ohio attorney general hasn't had a
sufficient raise.

THE prosecution of Mrs. George. who
is on trial at Canton, o., for the MUIR
der OF Mrs. McKinley's brother, has
rested and the defense is now having
its inning. There seems no shadow OF
doubt that the accused did the killing
and none that she did most righteous
act. Saxton was moral leper, who
went about wrecking home aud de-
stroying virtue, firing of each victim
as soon as he succeeded in his designs
and casting her into degradation and
disgrace. Mrs. George, who suffered
so terribly from his wiles, ought to be
acquitted and given a chrome.
