The Worst Mockery Of Justice That
Ever D~isgraced Kentucky.

Charles Finley, in Pennville Qnd.) Rough
Rider.
The jury i'm the Powers case has returned
a verdict. In so far as they are concerned.
the fate of the accused is settled and the
most wretched mockery of justice that ever
oisgraced Kentucky is ended. Having
played their little part to the entire salts
faction of those who put them in the jury
box, no doubt, they may now take them
selves off the scene, out of sight, and. but
for the fact that their names are pilloried
TO the scorn and exercration of honest men
forever, out of emo of the public, TO
Tot in the fostering infamy of their remain
ing years. The man who betrays a woman
and the lawyer who prostitutes a jury may
each retain a place in society, but the
woman goes out with the scarlet letter of
shame written forever on her forehead, and
the juryman meets ever the peoples pitiless
scorn. 1t may not be just, but it is so.
Nothing like it has happened since the
Dreyfus case dishonored France and hor-
rified the world. While that was i'm prog
ress American papers congratulated their
readers that such a spectacle as IL pre-
scented is impossible in this land OF ours.
But before il has barely faded from the
public. the Powers trial drags itself
through five long weeks of the frothings
of hireling prosecutors. missions of pur-
chased perjury and the poorly disguised
corruption of a prostituted court, ending
with a verdict which no honest man be-
lieves justified by the evidence. Evidence,
What did evidence signify No man who
watched the empaneling OF that jury
doubts that the verdict would have been
the same had Perjurer Weaver been the
only witness introduced by the prosecution.
Governor Mount must have had a pre-
vision of this case, when. in refusing the
requisition for Governor Taylor. he spoke
of courts ranged TO convict Guilty
and to be confined in the penitentiary for
life, they say. Many people who read the
evidence closely and found nothing in il
TO show that Powers was in any way con-
connected with the assassination OF
Goebel are surprised at the YER
dict. They forget the men from
whom the jurors were selected We're
summoned by a Goebelite sheriff: they for
get that when the panel was full the prose-
cu;ion peremptorily challenged two known
Republicans and had left another challenge

IT'S a long. long way. and a far. far cry
From the fight at old San Juan
To the hills and lakes and rice swanps dank
And the lean, brown foe of Luzon;
But a longer way and a further cry
To the shore where the Pei-Ho eddies by
In the land OF the hidden dawn.
'Tis a long. long way. and a far. far cry
To the walls OF Peking town
From the hill and vale OF far Caney
Where the Spanish flag went down;
And a hard. hard road. by the dark Pei-Ho.
Is the way where the Yankee soldiers go
To the wreck of a tyrant's crown.
IT'S a long, long way. and a hard. hard road
Leads straight TO a rowning wall.
With a frowning fringe OF yellow men
And a curtain Of powder and ball:
But a wall may be scaled by a hearty dash,
And a mans no match for a rife fash
When he fights al a despot's call.
So here's to the men from the Cuban plains,
From the States and from far Luzon.
Who carried the nag with the old-time grit
Through the land OF the Dragons spawn;
And here's to the nag that they carried
there
The nag OF the men who do and dare.
With its stripes of the morning dawn
