IssA CLEVELAND DEMOCRAT.
Admiral Dewey's Personal Motive is a
Desire to Defeat Mckinley.

NEW YoRK, April s. -'sSatisfied from
the expression of opinion throughout
the country this morning that his
nomination by the Democrats at Kan
sas City is unlikely, Admiral Dewey
stands willing to run for the presidency
on an independent Ticket"
So runs the New York Herald's
Washington dispatch recording the
news.
The correspondent adds:
"Since his announcement as the
peoples candidate, he has, in CONVEX
sation with friends, who desire to
know his politics, stated that he is q
Cleveland Democrat. In conversation
with caller this morning, he dsclar-
ed that he had never voted in his life,
and had no decided political views un-
til Mr.. Cleveland's last nomination.
He was then so strongly impressed
with the man and the platform adopt
ed by the Democratic party that he
was tempted to 60 to his home in ver-
mont and cast his vote for Mr.. Cleve-
land. He was unable to do SO, how
ever, because of official duties at the
time.
"Admiral Dewey has admitted to
friends that he was encouraged to
enter the race by 3 coterie of sound
money Democrats.
"Former President Cleveland and
some of the gentlemen who were
members Of bis Cabinet and other men
identified with the Palmer ticket Of
1895, are understood to be supporting
the Admiral In his candidacy. Their
object is to prevent Mr.. Bryan from
obtaining the Democratic nomination
at KansasCity, certainly to defeat his
election.
"Admiral Dewey's purpose on the
other hand is to defeat Mckinley.
The Admiral resents certain events
which have occurred and for which he
hoids the Fresident ana bis political
advisers responsible. The Admiral
believes that Senator Hanna feared
the possibility Of his becoming a rival
of Mckinley and be thinks he has
proof BY the attitude OF the Ohio Sena-
tor. The Admiral's hostility to the
administration, therefore, may be ac-
cepted as one of the factors which de-
termined him 10 become q candidate
for the White House.
"Admiral Dewey would prefer the
nomination BY the regular Democracy
at Kansas City. Should this honor be
conferred upon him, he would look for
9 platform similar to that Of the Sound
Money Democrats, brought up to date
BY the insertion Of pIanks dealing with
expansion, the status OF the new de-
Pendencies, the paciication Of the
Philippines and other questions, upon
which be thinks the people would
ike him 70 express his views. Since
it appears that the Admiral's entry

was winner OF the $1,000 stake at the
st. Louis horse show and he has
taken since he has been before the
public large number Of blue ribbons.
He was greatly admired in hia show
Saturday. ThorDton's Star was bred
by Thornton & Son, Of Bradfordsville,
KY, and he was foaled In 1891; sired
by Red Prince; first dam was Dia-
mond, by Nobby.
r. P. Moore had on exhibition his
well known hlgb-styled, perfectly
gaited and blue ribbon winner, Ike,
who ls In excellent form and attract
cd much attention. There are few
better horses on earth than Ike, who,
In four years, has won about 5000 In
premiums. He was entered and
shown in ell the large saddle stakes Of
Missouri in the years 1896, 's7, 'ss and
100 and rarely ever failed to carry OF
first honors. This great horse can be
found this season at Mr.. Moore's
stables, 7 miles southwest of Mexico,
and one-fourth Of q mile west of
Beaver Dam bridge, on the old Char.
lie Crockett farm. Kentucky Jim, an
extra fine animal, known as the Dill
lard jack, can be found at the same
place. Extended pedigrees of both
horse and jack will be furnished by
Mr.. Moore.
One Of the best horses in the show
was Rex Squirrel, the property of
VIM. Smith, three miles southeast Of
town. He lie q finely gated horse, is
perfect In form and was much ad-
mired by the crowd. Rex Squirrel
is q son of the grand old sire, Rex
Denmark, dam by old Black Squirrel,
the best combination for saddle and
show qualities known to breeders.
This fine fellow was exhibited under
the saddle by Luther Barnett, who
made q grand show with him, as
"splint" always does, whether in
Mexico, Mo-, or New York City.
e, L. Walker, whose farm is six
miles south Of Mexico, did not have
his stock In to the show, but he has
some good ones. On his place can be
found Harry Golddust, magnificent
red sorrel, sired BY Messenger Gold
dust, 2;2e, by Dorsey's old Golddust,
first dam Silver Wave BY Stout's Or
phsn Boy. Harry Golddust is one of
the best horses in Audrain county and
is q fine breeder, as his colts show.
Also at the same place can be found
two young jacks, Sam Black and Sam,
Jr. Both of these animals are by Ex-

TRENTON, N. j., April 6.-Champ

night, being the principal speaker at a
Boer sympathy meeting, ct which Ell

Of value can, II they are weak, look

freebooter and bully OF the world,
Referring to Grover Cleveland he said
be was never ''stuck on him." but he
thought great deal Of him the day
he sent word to Queen Victoria about
the Venezuelan matter. Cleveland,
he added, was q man whom half of the
people hated and nearly all OF the 9TH
or half disiiked, but that manly, cour-
ageors act inspired by his secretary,
Mr.. Olney, made him a popular hero
and raised him to the heights Of fame.
Mckinley, he thought, might accom-
plish something too IL somebody would
only take Mark Hanna cut and shoot
him. Queen vsctoria, whom he called
Mrs. Victim, would listen, he said, II
she got q note from Mckinley such as
Cleveland sent her and not another
life would be shed in the Boer country.

BECKHAM GETS 1T.
Court of Appeals Gives Him the Guber-
Material Decision-Lower
Court Sustained.

FRANKFORT, KY, April 6.-The
Court of Appeals rendered q decision
at noon to-day affirming Judge Fields'
decision in favor of Democratic Gov
ernor Beckham against Republican
Governor Taylor and Lieut.. Governor
Marshall. There was only one dis
senting opinion-this by Judge Dur
ellie tRepublican,) Judges Barnum and
Gufy (Republicans) c0ncurring with
the four Democratic judges in favor
of Beckham. The decision holds that
the action of the Legislature declar-
ing Goebel elected is final and cannot
be reviewed by courts.
The concurrence of Judges Guffy
and Burnam with the Democratic
judges is q staggering surprise
to Republicans and II is freely pre-
dicted that an appeal to the Supreme
Court Of the United States VIII now
be abandoned.
This finally settles the matter as far
as any legal body in Kentucky is con-
cerned. The election contest board
decided Goebel was elected, as aid
also the Legislature. The lafter's de-
cision was appealed to the higher
court, which was sustained, and then
taken to the Court Of Appeals, with
to-day's result.

were exhibited principally on the east
and south sides Of the square and elic-
itSd much favorable comment, as Au-
drain horses generally do wherever
shown.
Mexico and Audrain horses have
worldwide regulations and among
those on exhibition Saturday were
several who have won high honors
with the best on earth.
The show was a success in every
way except as to the number on ex-
hibltion. There are at least twenty
i've more good stallions in Audrain
that should have been present.
The following horses we're on ex-
hibition and made grand shows:
Jos. A. Potts was in a buggy behind
Thornton's Star 1924, which horse
made grand show. Thornton is in
excellent shape and is one OF the best

Another Snake Story.

FEom tue oen + EiancAhco OnfOahcio.
e. o. Schlueter and Constable Joe
Roderiok, who went up into the Niles
canon o-day in search OF cattle, had
an experience with rattlesnake
while out, and though neither was
bitten, SchIueter had a narrow es-
cape. When well up in the canon he
had occasion to dismount from his
horse, and in doing so he all but
stepped on rattle snake which was
coiled up near by. Roderick, as soon
as he saw the reptile, called to his
companion to run, at the same time
drawing his pistol and taking shot
at the snake. Fortunately the ball
struck the snake In the head. The
snake, which Roderick carried to this
place as q trophy, measured over i've
feet In length, and had fourteen rattles.
Hitherto the people who have been
frequenting the canon as q picnic
ground have believed the place free
from reptiles, this being the first
poisonous snake ever killed there.
