Former Governor of Kentucky Writes
an Open Letter.

Former Governor of Kentucky Writes
Open Letter.
W. s. Taylor yesterday sent to the Louis
Vile. KY, Evening Post from Indianapolis
the following statement, in which he de-
lines to be candidate for the republican
nomination for governor:
ITO the republicans Of Kentucky: At
one time 1 thought, and so announced, that
if the republican nomination for governor
were rendered to me 1 should not feel au-
thorized to decline it.
But after mature consideration of all
interests involved in the contest for civil
my family, for whom l must provide, 1
feel that l should ask at your hands re-
lief from the eXactions which a nominal
ton would impose.
best l could the burdens which have at
tended this great struggle. How much I
have endured for freedoms sake few Will
ever know. In spite of all this the will
of the people has been overthrown. and l
have not only been robbed but subjected
to merciless political persecution.
THE coming campaign is one of profound
Importance to Kentucky. The ballot must
be redeemed. The victory won last fall
must again be won, and the theft perpe-
trated by the general assembly fittingly
condemned.
Our only possible redress must come
through an appeal tHe people. he cam
paign must be an active. aggressive one.
No point should be neglected. Every friend
of the sacred cause of human rights should
be enlisted.
ITO the end that the appeal should be
successfully made. you should select for
your candidate who may devote all
his time and energies to the prosecution
of the canvass. In the light of these con-
siderations it is therefore manifest that
some other than myself should be your
standard bearer
while l cannot longer be your leader
in this great battle, yet I shall gladly rem
der whatever assistance may be within
my power, for 1 love liberty none the less
because of what / have suffered for her
sake. W. s. TAYLOR"
Following the statement from w. S. Tay
lor saying he will not run again came the
announcement of John W. Yerkes of Dan

VIRGINIA., MIMI, BURNS.
Half n Million Worth of Property De
strOyed In an Hour.

dispatch from Duluth. Mimi, last night
says: The entire business and most of the
residence section of the town of Virginia,
the largest settlement on the Mesaba iron
range, was wiped out of existence today by
fire. In one hours time fully 125 buildings
We're reduced to ashes. Telegraphic COM
munication was cut off soon after the first
news of the fire came and was not resumed
until this evening.
Tonight there is not business house,
hotel or store standing in Virginia. The
residence portion of the town was only
partially burned. The school house and
most of the churches We're untouched.
The loss is estimated at SI1D,uD. The in
surancc is believed to be not over S125 HD0.
The Moon & Kerr sawmill was burned. but
the stock of cut lumber is thought to have
been saved. The water plant of the city
was directly in the path of the flames.
The terrific force of the flames is shown
by the fact that they jumped the railroad
tracks at the eastern side of the village,
cleared a half mile of barren ground and
burned three beer houses and several rail-
road cars of the Duluth and Iron Range
railroad. So far as known no lives We're
lost.
The people are In urgent need of relief.
There is little food left in the town, and
women and children are without places to
sleep or any covering.

NEW PROCESS
Is Exciting Interest Among Steel Manu'
 lecturers

Pttsburg Pa, Sept. 16-Experiments just concluded here of the new Cosgrove process for making compound steel ingots is exciting great interest among steel man ufacturers from the fact that the discov- cry may have an effect upon the letting of armor plate contracts next month
 The experiments were under the direc- tion of W. D. Corcoran, of the Crucible Steel Company of America, and the results of the tests, it Is claimed, was a surprise to all. Perfectly solid ingots of graduated carbon, from one side of the ingot to the other or from the center of the ingots to its sides, were, made.
 In the manufacture of armor plate, guns and many other kinds of steel the Cosgrove process will, it is claimed, rank with tue best both in quality of steel produced and the economy in its manufacture. In the matter of armor plate it Is further claimed for it that any desired thickness of very high carbon can be given the surface of the plate, rendering it with a low carbon back absolutely impenetrable.

THOMPSON IS THE NOMINEE

At the opening of the Fifth District Con- gressional campaign at Alexander City few days ago, the following speech was de- livered by Hon. J. B. Graham, In introduc- Ing Hon. Charles W. Thompson.
 MT. Chairman and Fellow Citizens: Not many months ago l stood upon this plat form and enjoyed from the generous cit- Zenship of this county an attentive hearing. l came on that occasion when there was a fight within the party, and I was at that time espousing the cause of an individual, though a representative of the party. some today ill capachy that is somewhat different; I come to this stand, as I did before, a citizen of Alabama and an or- ganiZed Democrat. The difference is that while I was here on that occasion to speak in behalf of man, l come today to speak where the individual has been lost sight of through the voice of the party, and come to speak, not in behalf of Col Charles w. Thompson, but in behalf of the Democ- racy of the Fifth Congressional District. want to say, my fellow citizens, that speak not for today, but I come to speak for the future of the Fifth Congressional District. I am not here to foment strife, or to excite partisanship but am here as one who recognizes that we have party law, and party court, just as we have civil law and civil court, and a patriotic law-abiding citizen bow my head to obey the one just as readily as bow it to obey the other
 Reviews the Campaign
 'I come this afternoon to discuss with you the issues as to why I am speaking in behalf of the nominee of the Democratic party, and not an individual, and that leads me briefly to review some of the things which you have heard in the public high
