DESPERATE KENTUCKY TACTICS.
DEMOCRATIC COMMISSIONERS RULE OUT
ANTI-GOEBEr. WATCHERS AT THE POLLS.


Louisville. Ky. Nov 3 CspecaD.-The des-
perate tactics 10 which the G0ebel managers
stand ready u resort in this state are Illus
trated in the decision OF the Election Commits
sloners Of jefferson County dn which this city
les). that the Brown Democracy the Prohibl-
tionsts and the Populists are not entitled to
have watchers or inspectors al the polls next
Tuesday As all these minor ORGANIZATIONS are
as violently opposed as are me Republicans to
the spirit and workings Of the Goebel law the
presence OF eight hostile observers was consid-
cred too great a check upon the frauds clearly
contemplated In Mr.. Goehels interest and at
the eleventh hour, when judicial interference Is
no longer practicable the Democratic managers
have forced their agents on the election boards
in this and other counties 20 make this unfair
and partisan ruling
The new order Is in conflict with the practice
already established under the Goebel law In
1897, and violates the express promises made on
the stump by the head ~ the State Election
Board. Judge Pryor Democratic Judge In
Camp County only the other lay decided that
each party represented by n state ticket was
entitled 70 one watcher and one Inspector at
each polling place. To get A confirmation OF
this Judgment from the highest state court, an
appeal was carried UP 10 the Court Of Appeals
at Frankfort, but that court was unAo1e ID CON-
slider the case because Of certain technical OBJ
jectons
Judge Barr. the Republican member OF the
jefferson County Board. dissented from the de-
cision TO shut out the additional watchers and
inspectors. but was cutvoted by the two Goebel-
ties. who control the local election machinery.

Passing of the chrysanthemum
From the London Telegraph.

Another text for a sermon on the vani-
ties" is supplied as in the melancholy par
agraph announcing that the chrYsanthe-
mum is at last 'on" The astonishing
popularity which it enjoyed for a certain
number of years in this country was not
as some enthusiasts imagined, the sign of
permanent development of English taste i;
our national love for the soft, cool, ex-
quisite tints to which the flower lent itself
was as much a new within, mere ca
price of fashion, as was the rage of 1887
9S for violently colored dress materials
and gaudY headgear. The Chrysanthe-
num- with many other "choses Japonai-
ses," is fast falling out of public favor
A society formed at Watford for its prop
agatiou has resolved for lack of support
TO wind up its affairs after twelve years
of existence, ten of which had been ex-
tremely prosperous, 1t must cost them a
pang, no doubt to abandon their enter
prise, but there is no resisting the evil
dence of their declining fortunes. The
last ehrysanthemum show was so com
plete a failure that no prize money was
forthcoming, and it is stated that similar
associations in other parts of the country
are reduced to equally grievous straits. 1t
is sad. of course, but there, can be no
doubt that reaction was from the first in
evitable The idolatry of the deposed
OWer must nave DeSn long telt by every
judicious mind to have reached truly
extravagant pitch. That many, though
not all, varieties of the chrysanthemum
have certain charm of color we have
already admitted but, after all something
more than this is necessary to complete
floral perfection, and il Is absurd 10 ideal
ize a flower which has no more preten-
sons to shape than the wet kitchen mop
which would seem 10 have been taken
or 70 have served for a model 1t is like
the art of Japan. which also has been so
insanely overpraised of late years, ana
which. delightful as it is to the sense of
color, offends just as outrageously against
all European conceptions of the beauty
of form. For much too, of its popularity
the chrysanthemum has been indebted to
the good fortune of its blooming season.
Wordsworth's tribute to the maiden. whom
he described as fair as q star when only
one is shining in the sky" has always
seemed to use somewhat "left-handed"
compliment, and there is no doubt that
the fallen flower derived a considerable
advantage from appearing at time OF the
year when it had few or no rivals in the
field
