The recession inaugurated in the small
declines of yesterday afternoon was con-
tinued this morning in an insignificat way,
prices at IL o'clock being half a point 10
a point below the high prices of yesterday.
The market was no more active than here
tofore, but the selling by tired holders had
taken the place of the small investment
buying of previous days. No fear is en-
tertained by the conservative people Of the
Street that prices will have more than
fractional declines and the advice is gen.
orally given is TO buy on this reaction.
Such advice has proven sound heretofore
this MONTH The market is waiting for the
strong financial people to begin their au-
tumn campaign, and nothing more than a
traders affair is expected at present.

Wall Street is beginning again to talk
of the bank statement for the week Opin-
ions are naturally various, but a care
full estimate of the situation does not
give ground for expecting any improve
ment in the figures over those of last week.
The New York banks have given to the
Government this week nearly a million
dollars in gold. Curtailment of loans will
probably keep the reserve figure for the
week on the right side of the statement,
but such reduction of loans cannot con-
tinue always without advancing the money
rate. AS has been said heretofore, this one
feature of the market situation is the only
one that is causing important people any
disquietude.

that there has been any settlement of the

FARnERs MEETING.
Timely and Interesting Suggestions
From President FOOte.

BRKoKENRIDoE News the Secretary
Of the Breckenridge and Meade County
Agricultural society will in a few days
send you the names OF those who will
address our Cloverport meeting in
August, and the subjects they will pre-
sent. Also date OF meeting which will
be near the end OF the month.
Our Irvington meetings, have been
both successful and profitable and am
lead to believe that the meeting we
will hold in your city willie be even more
successful and we'll worth the d . and
expense OF any farmer in the ounty
quitting his work 10 attend.
Tell the farmers that these d. things
are going to be strictly agricultural meet
ings gotten up for no other purpose then
to stimulate a broader and a deeper
growth OF agricultural citizenship, and to
do what we can to get the farmers to
see the importance OF more intellect and
better methods on the farm.
We do not come among you claiming
apostles Of agriculture, bat expecting to
get good" rather than "do good" to
got ideas that will save our farms from
the wastful effects of ignorance.
Now that our crops are all made, or
laid by for this season, let us come to-
gether next month in Cloverport and
after thanking our master for bounteous
blessings, devote one day to DISCUSSION
of ways and means that we may en-
p!oy to reduce the cost of production,
for we farmers are In the forefront OF a
merciless competition and must produce
as cheap as any or loose the market and
do this at profit or the farmer and his
farm will perish together. So let the
farmers meet.

GOEBEL!
Not The Worst Sinner In The State.
Says Our Old Time Friend and Democrat
"Cump" Henderson.
He Don't Approve of His Methods But It's
Politics
AND THAT GOES RIGHT OR WRONG

as Of the Courier Journal and that fac
tiOn in the city. have as much conf.
dence in GOebel as l have in the Dis
patch, controlled as it is by Whalen.
Whalen is doing a great deal more to
corrupt the morals of the people Of Louis
vile and the State then Goebel and his
methods can possibly do. am taking
the Dispatch and think 1 never saw
more spite manifested than is in its
columns. Look at its action in regard
to the Geobel election law. 1t defended
that measure until since the convention.
You know its course since. have per.
feet contempt for such hypocrisy. do
not write this in defense of the methods
that obtained in that convention, nor
any other political convention. 1 have
intimated that 1 had expressed myself
plainly in regard to tricksry practiced in
conventions. Yet do not think Goebel
near as bad as he is represented 10 be.
/ do not believe him to be a traitor,
either to the party or to Blackburn. l
believe he is in accord with the plat
form. believe there is much to be
said in his favor. He surely is a smart
man. His public acts have generally
been with the people.
He worked and voted for the McCord
Bill and the Chinn Bill, which had they
become laws would have been worth
more to the people than all the bills
considered at the session.
There is another thing that raises him
in my estimation and that is, he did not
have while that convention was going
on, whisky, wine, beer or cigars to cor
rupt men with, while at both the other
headquarters could be had anything
that would debauch and degrade men,
think it shame that men seeking the
highest Office in the State should be
guilty Of such things. In conclusion l
will say am not seeking favor of Mr..
Goebel, or the Democrat party, nor am
l one who believes that if the republic
can party controls the State that We
will 60 to destruction, but am a demo-
crat in principal, and 1 simply write to
show Goebel not to be the WORT sinner
in the State.
