Labor CO-PartnershfD

Henry D. Lloyd's recent book, Lab
or Co-Partnership," is wonderful
revolution to those who know but lit
tie of the cooperative movement in
Great Britain. We have not space to
quote extensively from his work and
can give no more than a single illus
tration, showing the possibilities of
the cooperative movement, but ear
nestly recommend the book to all who
are interested in the economic ques-
ton.
Mr.. Lloyd says that the working
people by voluntary cooperation es-
tablished in the ear 1868 the Scottish
Cooperative Wholesale Society Linz
tied, with a capital of SS,o75. During
the following year the capital in
creased to $25,s75. The safes amount
ed to $405,47O, while the profits were
$500. For nearly thirty years after
wards there had been a steady in
crease in the capital of the institu-
ton until the ear 1897 it reached &c.
444,S05. The sales amounted to S22.-
02s,265 and the profits, which no
doubt were divided in dividends a.
mong the stockholders and patrons,
were $56O,275. The total sales in no
less than thirty years were $226,153,-
$50; the total profits $6,9O6,1 6O. This
is the only one of number of like
institutions in small country whose
total population exceeds four million
Mr.. Lloyd's book will repay careful
reading.

Literary Notes
An Ice Yacht Runaway.

Some years ago there was runa-
way down at Shelter Island, in which
a young girl was left in the boat
with a gale blowing. She tried to
throw the sheet loose, but it was froz-
en- and her fingers were too cold, adj
ded to which the sheet had fonled the
tiller, and she could not bring the
boat up into the wind to stop it's way.
the sail being so set that the boat
continued running right along at
terrific rate of speed. Occupants of
the other boats soon realized the posi-
ton and made chase, gaining but
slowly, one boat finally being far in
the lead of the others by the time the
end of the island was left behind.
Right in front lay the end of the ice,
broken short by the action of the tide
water and there the breakers rolled
in, throwing up the anchor ice, dash
ing it down, land then retreating,
sucking it under the foe and packing
it up for another break. For some
time it was question as to whether
the chasing boat would catch up with
the girl before she was carried over
edge to certain death. But at last the
boats came together for one brief Sec
ond, the girl was snatched by strong
arms to the pursuer's yacht, the sheet
was eased off in flash, and, spinning
round i'll its own length, it was set
right before the wind instead of reach
ing into it, just as the runaway dash
ed over into the anchor ice A short,
sharp crack gave notice of the part

only her speed enabled her to with

rels as a Spellbinder.

That Harry McChesney, the
Democratic nominee for Superinten
dent of Public Instruction, is goo6
fellow everybody who knows him al
all comedies. But that he is q
natural-born campaign orator and
story teller it has remained for this
campaign to develop. Mr.. McChes-
ney is making a great hit where
ever he speaks. Senator Black
burn heard him at Mayfeld the
other day, and before McChesney
finished the Senator turned to Mr..
Goebel and said: "Well, there's a
man I'll keep busy until November. "
McChesney runs Col. w. P. Thorne,
of Eminence, a close race on funny
stories and campaign drolleries. If
it is worth walking ten miles to
hear Thorne, it is worth walking
nine to hear McChesney and his
anecdotes. He will be almost
steadily on the stump under direc-
ton OF Senator Blackburn, Chair
man of the Democratic Campaign
Committee.

LOOK FOR THE LANDSLIDE.


Such crowds as are coming to-
gether to hear Goebel and Black
burn were never witnessed before
in the history of Kentucky politics
in State race. In fact, for the
length of time before the election the
crowds surpass in size and enthu-
siasm the gatherings of the unpar-
alleled year of 1896, and as the
magnificent platform of the party is
explained and the character of the
opposition to Goebel made known
the determination of the people to
win becomes more intense and ear
nest from day. When Democracy
gets her back up and clears up the
lies and ISLANDERS that have been
maliciously circulated on her splen-

Peaks statement with an affidavit.
On the question of veracity Mr..

at Wat Fiardin's fiome.

AT IIarrodsburg Saturday before
an audience of 1000 people Senator
Goebel had some interesting things
to say on the subject of the recent
Lexington convention. Mr.. Goebel
charged that John Young Brown,
the nominee of the Lexington con.
vention for Governor, on the day
that the Louisville convention nom
mated a candidate for Governor,
and only few hours before that
nomination was made, procured the
publication in the Louisville Times
OF an article designed to stampede
the convention to Brown by sug-
gesting him as the best solution of
the situation then existing within
the convention at Music Hall. This
publication, he charged, was made
at the special request of Mr..
Brown, conveyed through the Hon.,
C. c. McChord, the Democratic nom.
inee for Railroad Commissioner in
this district. He also accused the
ex-governor of insincerity in his
present denlnclation of the election
law, pointing out the fact that Mr..
Brown made speeches in behalf of
