That was a great gathering OF
Democrats Saturday. Conservative
estimates place the number Of those
participating at 1900 TWAS a fine
body of men that crowded and
jostled each other gocd-naturedly
around the court house door. Many
Of the prodigals were back at home
and nothing was said to hurt their
feelings. If the wheat had all been
cut there is no telling how many
would have been on hand. As it
was there were enough to show
that the people like to go to conven-
tons. OF the three candidates the
Goebel men had the best organiza-
ton. One delegation of rs came in
from Herndon under command of
Mat Major. DR.. Lackey brought in
about 40 from Pembroke and Judge
Ragsdale a crowd from Lafayette.
Walter Garner and Lee Thacker
grounded up" about 40 Stone men
from the same place. The Goebel
men claim that they had at least
500 men in line and the Stone men
were not far behind them. Hardin
had perhaps 800 men when the di-
vision was made, but some of these
were Stone men in the Hardin-Stone
combine. Then the two larger
crowds united, the thing looked to
be almost unanimous. The conven-
ton passed off without ''scrap of
any sort and although some of the
boys are little sore, they are liv-
ing in hopes that things may go
their way in the State convention
and that laughing last they may
laugh best.

The Recent Decision Settles Many
Pending Prosecutions.

| The recent decision of the Court
of Appeals in the Gases for CrImi-
dial Conspiracies. against the va
rious Fire Insurance Companies, al
Frankfort, Kentucky. it is thought
will have material effect to the
advantage of the business interest
of the companies.
About seventy-seven Of the COM
panies were charged by indictment
in the Franklin Circuit Court with
combining and conspiring together
for the purpose of sitting compete
ton in insurance and to raise the
rates of insurance and then to COM
pei those who took out insurance
upon their property to pay more for
insurance than they would have
had to pay but for the combination,
and it was charged that this combi-
nation was what is denominated in
law as a criminal conspiracy and
punishable as such under the COM
mon law. This was the view taken
by the circuit judge under whose
direction the jury found the compa-
MES guilty and assessed fines
against the several companies ag-
gregating about $4,000
The Court of Appeals in passing
upon the case held that the acts
charged and the facts brought out
in the proof fin the trial Of the cases
was not an offense at common law
and were not embraced in the Ken
lucky Statute against pools and
trusts.
The opinion of the court, which
was written by Judge DuRelle, is
both able and exhaustive and re-
ceived the concurrence of all of the
judges except one.
The case was argued and man
aged on behalf of the Insurance
companies by Judge Jas. S. Pirtle,
the Chief Attorney for the compa-
MES and ex-Chief Justice Pryor,
with Messrs. Landes e. Allensworth
of this city and other attorneys of
counsel. The decision of course
will settle all other cases in this
State in which the Insurance COM
panies are indicted and similar in
dictments have been found against
the same companies in many coun-
ties, including this county.
There are now pending in the
Christian Circuit Court over sixty
indictments against the companies
which have been left open by agree
ment between Mr.. w. r. Howell
attorney for the Commonwealth, and
the firm of Landes 81 Allensworth,
attorney, for the companies, aw ait
ing the decision of the Court of APP
peals in the Franklin county case.

alton there
For a man who has received
all he has practically asked for
from the city, Mr.. Blair has proven
che most dissatisfied man that we have
yet come in contact with, and it looks
very much as if it would take that
which he cannot, must not have, to
bring that comfort to his soul that we
would all be gratified to see him en-
joy
But the time has come to not only
draw the line, but to hold it so. The
city must guard the levee from any
invasion whatever, and she must be
alert in the performance of this obi
CATION to her taxpayers and CONNER
cial interests, this duty to herself.

probably gained more valuable con-
cessions in the three cities than any
other protector ever secured in COM
munity of 75. 600 people without TAX
ing any one into his confidence or
giving so much as an iota of practi-
cal proof that he is acting in good
although 10 is not said that he
is not has from the first had designs
on the Rock Island levee. 1t is not
attributing too much to the influence
of this aftable gentleman to say that
the great Improvement at last con-
summated was retarded full year
by him. Yet when the new river
front was completed, despite the oppo-
sition of which he was the cause, he
sought in an ingenious manner to
gain track rights across the most i'm
portant corner of the improvement.
Thwarted in this by wideawake
council, the Sunday episode followed.
The people of Rock Island, to an in
dividual, applaud the course the city
has taken in checking any further en-
croachments of any kind on the part
of private corporations on the river
front. The same rule that applies to
the persistent MIR. Blair applies to any
other corporation seeking special
rights there. And it was in order to
prove herself righteously consistent in
this attitude that the city declined to
permit the Diamond 10 Steam boat
company to erect a warehouse there,

seasons boycott in consequence Yet
the city has steadfastly main
tanned the just position that if
