10 the people q Christian county,

To the people Of Christian county,
1.-THE greatest issue in the campaign
now upon us, is the election law
that guarantees fair and honest
elections in the future, and no more
star-chamber proceedings in the
canvass of the votes. In the cleo
tions of the past, Democrats have
been refused a division of officers
on many of the election boards and
denied representation, even by at
torney, in contests, at the final
counting of the returns. Under the
present law, this unfairness is no
longer possible and the Republican
majority in Christian county cannot
be fraudulently inflated with trans
lent floaters, convicts, minors and
repeaters. On a square show
down, the majority is not so large
that it cannot be overcome by work
and organization, with the oppor-
tunities for fraud removed. On
this very important question all
three of the Democratic candidates
have been heard. Senator Goebel,
being the author of the bill, is of
course its strongest and ablest ad-
vocate and defender. Capt. Stone s
position is satisfactory since he
has declared that he will not sign
any bill repeating it, notsanctioned
by the approval of a Democratic
caucus. On the other hand, Gen.
Hardin has refused to take stand
for or against the measure. He has
no friend to say that
he is for it or that he would veto a
repeal bill passed by the same ele-
ments that fought the passage OF
the caucus bill. His position is in
doubt, but there is yet time for him
to remove the doubt.

Georgia Sam and Ohio Sam Jones,
Preacher and Politician.

Rev. Sam p. Jones, the only ano

Cartersville, Ca, was at the Gait
House yesterday. He was looking
every inch of himself, his shoes glis-

and vigorously extracting the juice
from a good sized quid of tobacco,
as he strobe through the rotunda of
the hotel. The Reverend Samuel is
soon to return to Louisville and
turn his big guns on the strongholds
of the devil and the great citadel of
sin. What he will do with the cred
nosed Democrats" and "whiskey-
bloated Republican," will be "a
plenty" But the assertion is ven-
tured that Brother Jones will give
the question of free silver and Mr..
Bryan S taxes a very WIDE berth.
He was called down too cleverly at
on one of his rash
statements along this line whicbhe
was compelled to take bask. The
manner in which he made the coz
rection, however. did not sit we'll

General Hardin made a speech
in Owensboro few days ago, and
as a question was put directly to
him, he is credited with having
said more, regarding his position
on several public questions, that in
any of his previous speeches.
There still remains, however, a
great deal more for him to say.
He was asked, at Greensboro, what
he would do with a bill repeating
the election law. His answer was,
that he would not stand in the way,

tion taken by Gen. Hardin is a most
unsatisfactory one, even to his sup

CONQUEST OF ENGLAND.

Many indications might be mentioned
as going to show that at the present time
German or. lager beer is rapidly gaining
favor in this country, says the London
Times. OF these, not the least significant
is that it's manufacture has now been un-
dertaken on considerable scale at Bur-
ton-on-Trent by Messrs. Allsopp, a firm
which for more than a century and a
half has been identified with the brewing
of English ale. This is quite a new de-
parture for Burton, because the difference
between German and English beer is rad
ical, the two beverages being breWed by
different methods and the yeastS en-
ployed being now generally recognized to
be distinct organisms. The old process of
making lager beer is long and therefore
costly, involving among other operations
two lamentations III separate vessels, of
which the first, or main one, takes about
q fortnight, and the other, or secondary
one, several months. The Pfaudler
vacuum fermentation system, which has
been adopted by Messrs. Allsopp is a new
process elaborated in America, which re-
duces the total time occupied in manufac-
ture to about three weeks. effecting cor
responding reduction in cost, and produce
ing what is said to be purer and bright
! err product It's leading feature is that
the two lamentations are conducted from
beginning to end in one and the same
vessel under reduced pressure-that is
to say the carbonic acid given off by the
action of the yeast is continuously remOv-
ed by vacuum pump, while air, purified
from all germs by alteration through cot
ton wool, is admitted through the wort as
required.

that Admiral Dewey and Mrs. Hazen
We're married today, and that only three

in his eventful career the admiral met
this ordeal with becoming modesty and
undoubted bravery.
Had he been a duke, or a count, or
some other man of small abilities, he
would have invited everybody to the

the Helena Independent on the Sulu ques-
tion. He says: 'It SENS to me that
were it not for the ignorance displayed,
the present hue and cry about polygamy
and slavery in these islands would be alb
solutely criminal. In taking over the
Sulu group we have acquired no rights
OF any sort there except those bequeath-
ed us by Spain. She was bound by her
agreement with the Sultan not to inter-
fere with the religion or customs of the
islands, and it would be most unwise for
US to attempt this by force. when it can
ultimately be accomplished by the slower
means of civilization and education. The
Sulu group proper contains about 100000
inhabitants. They are all Mohamme-
dams, as are about $50, 900 of the residents
of Mindanao, directly east. I firmly be-
lieve that an attempt to interfere by
force with the customs in the Sulu islands
at this time would bring on bloody and
wholly unnecessary war"

THE FIGHT ON MAZET.

For some months past the Mazet COM
lively for the city hall boodlers of Tam
many, and old Croker himself has been
compelled to writhe under the search
lights in common with many individuals
of lesser note.
If there is anything which Tammany
does not court, it is an investigation;
and the persistency of Mazet's legisa
tive committee has been exceedingly an
noying to the gentlemen who think they
own the city of New York.
Election day overlook the committee
with it's work uncompleted. The demo-
Gratis made up their mind that its work
should remain uncompeted.
So all the available energies of the
grand old party were concentrated upon
Mazet to remove him from the dangerous
position of manager of the searchlisht.
On the face of the returns, Mazet was
defeated. But his friends insist that the
most glaring frauds We're perpetrated to
bring about that result.
The case will doubtless go before the
legislative assembly on a contest, and
democratic anxiety to beat the gentle
man will be Drobed to the bottom.
To draw the fire of the democratic party
of New York, merely because he was in
vestigating democratic frauds, should be
regarded as a compliment by Mazet.
The democrats in that state do not
much as they do in Montana.
In this state it is unnecessary for re-
pubicans to investigate democrats.
The democrats like the exercise so well

LIQUID AIR.

Chicago Chronicle: The general public
seems to be in the dark as TO the COM
position and properties of liquid air, the
newly discovered element that has been
much discussed or late. 1t it just what
it's name indicates-air, such as we
breathe. made so cold that 1t takes the
form of water The fact that air can
assume that form Is a recent discovery,
as is also the method of obtaining the
intense cold necessary to this result.
The temperature required is 312 degrees
below zero, a temperature farther below
the coldest arctic winter than that is be-
low a tropical summer. Yet persistent
efforts have at last developed a method
by which it is readily produced. When
air is cooled down to this degree it
changes to misty vapor and gradually
forms into drops that fall like rain to
the bottom of the vessel containing it.
BY a proper arrangement 1t may then
be drawn off into an open receptacle
ready for use.
When seen in an open vessel 1t might
be mistaken for boiling water, as 1t sum-
mers and gives off white vapor When
first poured out it boils violently, throw
ing off a cloud of vapor that rolls down
the sides of the vessel. But as soon as
the receptacle has cooled to the temper
ature of the liquid it quie.ts down to a
simmer, which continues until all has
evaporated and returned to air. This
may require several hours If care is
taken to keep the vessel away from every
conductor of heat. But if it be placed
on a plate of iron, or even a block of ice,
it will boil violently and very soon mingle
with its native air. If poured out on a
conductor, as iron or ice. it will assume
the gaseous state SO rapidly as to amount
to an explosion.
AS a freezing agent the power of liquid
air Is terrific. 1t freezes pure alcohol
very readily and freezes mercury SO hard
