No president has been renomi-

and Cleveland, and both were de-
feated tor a second continuous term
that is, no president since Grant

In 1892 Harrison seemed to be

PROPOSED BILL
About Which Democratic Senti-
ment is crystaIizing.

A Frankfort special to the Gin
cinnati Enquirer says; The Dem
ocratic Legislators have been quietly
discussing since Tuesday the main
features to be Incorporated in a
new election law, and it is an
nounced tonight that a bill has
been practically agreed upon and
will be introduced on Saturday or
next week. The features of the
proposed measure are as follows:
State election commission of three
members, one to be selected by the
governing authority OF the Demo-
cratic party, one by the same au-
ihority of the Republican party,
and the third to be elected by the
legislature. The latter will be
chairman, but to have no vote ex-
cept where the other two disagree.
County boards to contain three
members, one selected by Demo-
crats,one by Republicans, the third
by county Judge, the latter COM
missioner to have no vote except in
case of a tie.
1t will provide for universal
registration in city, town, village
and country precincts. do away
with party devices on the ballot,
and provide for the preservation of
all the ballots for a reasonable
time after each election. The
election officers are TO be appointed
from the two principal parties, the
party authorities to furnish the
names of those they want appoint
ed, and must be divided equally
that is, each party will have one
judge in each precinct. This
seems to meet with general ap-
proval, and it is more than likely it
will be enacted into a law as soon
as possible. 1t is an absolute re-
peal of the present law, and cannot
be unfair to either party.

Yerkes Represents TayIorlsm.

The Kentucky Republicans sealed
their doom when they indorsed
Taylor. If the outside Republicans
know what is good for them they
will leave their disreputable Ken
lucky brethren to their fate. The
issue of Taylor versus the people
of Kentucky-quite apart from the
murder of Goebel-- lis complete as
it stands. The Democrats want no
other issue, for TaylorIsm, as rep
resented by Yerkes. is indefensible.
Meanwhile, the trials will go on at
Georgetown and the guilty will be
found guilty, spite of the efforts OF
the Republicans to obstruct the
course OF justice. During the long
siege just ended there was a we'll
planned conspiracy to badger the
court. Few men could have stood
this as Judge CaDtriH did The
bravest of the brave, the truest of
the true, he did his duty by the
people and the state, and the time
will come when everybody will re-
alize the value of such a man upon
the bench in such an emergency. -

A Nye and Riley Practical Joke.

Major Pond in the New York World I remember when we were riding together in the smoking compartment, between Co., lumbus and Cincinnati, MT. Nye was a great smoker and MT. Riley did not dis like tobacco. An old farmer came over to MT. Nye and said:
 Are you MT. Riley? heard you was on the train"
 No; I am not MT. Riley. He is over there"
 "'I knew his father, and I would like to speak with him."
 "Oh, speak with him? Yes. But he is deaf, and you want to speak loud.' So the farmer went over to him and said in a loud voice:
 "Is this Mr. Riley?"
 "Er, what?"
 "Is this MT. Riley?"
 "Riley? Oh yes.''
 "I knew your father"
 "No brother"
 q knew your father."
 "What?"
 =. knew your father"
 "Oh, so did l.''
 And in a few minutes the farmer heard Nye and Riley talking in ordinary tones of voice. Imagine his chagrin.

 On the eve of her departure for this coun- try few weeks ago Mme. Marcella Sem brich declined a most honorable and fatter- ing offer made to her by Count Hochberg, the intendent, and Director Pierson, of the Berlin Royal Opera House. The offer was of a permanent engagement to begin in De- tober, 1901 with a salary larger than any that has ever before been paid to an artist at the opera, and the granting of a pension should she decide to retire at the end of the first year. She should also have yearly leave of absence to fill engagements in Russia. The engagement was declined in spite of its promise of freedom from the irksome and fatiguing travelling incidental to tours in various countries.

Woman Suffrage on Trial.

From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
 The women of Colorado, Wyoming, Utah and Idaho seemed to know what they were about on the 9th of November
 In Wyoming John T. Thompson, candi- date for Congress, was quoted as having said that ''the womans vote was the easiest to get the easiest to hold and the easiest to manipulate" He denied that he ever uttered this reflection on woman's indepen- dence, but it did him no good He was showed under by feminine ballots, running 500 behind his ticket.
 Senator Wocott of Colorado, whose term expires next March, was a candidate for reelection. An anti-Wolcott Legislature was returned by womens votes. They didn't like the figure the Senator cut in recent divorce proceedings.
 A woman ran for the State Legislature in Utah on the Democratic ticket. She was beaten because a majority of the women of the district were Republicans and they stood by their party against their sex.
 On the whole equal suffrage seems to have worked well in the States named. Po- htical education among women is not in a backward state. Failure will come if 1t comes at all, from indifference to political affairs rather than from want of under- standing.
