another voice to welcome them when they, too,
shall cast away the burden of life and lay them
down to rest indeath; for as seed by the portals
of death is ripened into the fields of the harvest
so must the immortal soul be ripened for the har-
vest of God
How sadly they will miss her. No more will
their once happy home be frightened with her
presence. No more will she mn@e with them
around the tireside. Her seat is vacant forever.
1t Is hard to give her up Yet we would say to
the sorrOwng husband and dear children, be
cOmfOrted. She is not lost to you She has only
gone before to that heavenly where you may
follow if YOU will be as faithful in all the rel3 lions
of life as she was, and trust the same Savior she
trusted. You may all be reunited in one anbro
ben family in that heavenly home, where there is
no pain, sickness or death, there to chi )y the
same sweet music and be with the Angels end re-
deemed, mingling voices in singing anthems Of
praise to Him that loved us and washed us in his
| own precious blood.

Jack Chinn, the well-knowu race
horse starter, was asked in a crowd the
other day what he thought about the
payment Of bets on the election. "lt's
lust like horse race, said he. when
the horses pass under the wire, the
judges put up the numbers, one, two,
three, showing the order In which the
horses passed under the wire. But
you don't get your money on that. The
Judges consider the matter, ani pos
sibly a Jockey says his horse was fouled
on the back stretch. the boys are
called up, the judges hear their state
ments, and, as it often happens, they
set back the horse that first passed un-
der the wire. Then the man that had
the money on number one loses, while
the other fellow wins. It's the same
in the race of Goebel and Taylor. The
Judges have flashed up Taylor's num-
Der, but Goebel claims a foul in the
home stretch, and the Legislature is
going to call up the witnesses and de-
eide which horse wins. They may dis
qualify Taylor for fouling, and, If they
do, in my opinion the sports that have
their money on the Goebel horse are
the winners. In the ewes Of sporting
man the same rule applies TO bet on a
political race as TO a bet on horse
race, or any other kind OF a race"

The election board, like all other
honest men, is very much Disguised
with the secret ballot and insists that
the, e be submitted to the people con-
stitutional amendment TO return to the
good old viva vocG way OF voting. IN
der the present system all manner OF
frauds are not only possible, but are
perpetrated. The whole theory, 1t
thinks, is based on al unmanly sentl =
ment that is at variance with the feel
ings OF true Kentuckians. 1t Is clumsy,
cowardlv and unAmerican and ought to
be swept from the statute book. All
this aud more the INTERIOR JOURNAL
said in It's humble way, in appealing to
the constitutional convention not To

prophesied concerning IL has come To

THE republican leaders are trying to

Gen. Dan Lindsey to fill the place on
State election board vacated by Mr..
Ellis, but he is doubtless enough OF a
lawyer not to make himself 80 ridicu-

election law provides that "if vacan-

whilst the General Assembly Is 10 va
