paign textbook The document was written
jointly by Senator John Raines and Lemuel E.
Quigg. 1t has been discussed by the leaders
here and approved by them.
Much interest has been manifested in what
the platform says about Ramapo. The clause
relating TO this subject points out that it a
Republican Legislature that thwarted the Ram
apo jobbers in the initial undertaking, provides
that the Legislature have vested in it the power
Of condemning land for water rights in all
cities, and declares for the ownership Of water
plants by cities.
The franchise tax is referred to and indorsed.
While it is pointed out that the law is yet new
and practically untried. yet it is declared to be
a good law. and it is shown that under
Democratic administration only two thousand
corporations paid taxes, while under Republican
administration six thousand paid taxes
Dealing with the trust question the platform
points out that the Democratic office holders and
leaders are or were large owners in the most
iniquitous of all trusts-the Ice Trust
The canal question is also dealt with. but the
party does not bind itself to bring about the
proposed 100000 expenditure for canal i'm
provements. It is pointed out that there is now
being made preliminary survey, authorized by
the last Legislature, for accurately determining
the cost Of the proposed enlargement of the
Erie Canal and the Republican party will not
favor any large expenditure unless it is certain
that as a result of the enlargement the condition
of all classes of the people and all sections of the
State will be materially improved.
The reference to the tax rate goes into HgureS
elaboratey for the purpose of proving that wise
and prudent expenditures have been made by

embezzled and became a defauter.
The murder Of Mr.. Goebel is to be deeply de-
plored sternly condemned, and can never be Justi-
fed But the present Democratic leadership, IN
seeking to make political issue Of assassination
Is guilty OF resort to a fraudulent device ana 10

t.- s'eh ene Governor Tor bringing about his re-
'ienient from the head of the Insurance De-
partlnent. Tonight he showed in an unmis-
t"Aaoie manner that whenever he gets an open
lne ne VIII take advantage of it. The routine
"0iN Oh selecting the convention committees
was over with. when Colonel W. j. Youngs, of
oyster Bay, private secretary to the Governor,
was recognized by Chairman Oden
MI Houngs said: Mr.. Chairman have here
telegram from Governor Roosevelt saying
that he left Chicago this afternoon at $40
O'CLOCK He will reach Saratoga Springs be-
tween and o'clock Tomorrow" Mr. Youngs
then went on to say that the Governor would
no doubt be glad to speak before the Conven-
ton while it in session, and suggested an
adjournment of the convention after 1t was
called to order at II o'clock. in order that Gov
ernor Roosevelt might have time to get to the
hall before the work of the day was disposed Of.
Before any one else could respond Mr.. Payn
got the floor and said: Mr.. Chairman, in my
humble judgment it would be little less than
terrible calamity if the Republican State Con
vention should be deprived Of hearing speech
from Governor Roosevelt. BY all means let us
adjourn. 1t would be better, Mr.. Chairman, to
adjourn the convention for a month rather than

always do as well that. Perhaps weH do a
little better this time"
One Of those little surprises which delight the
epicure greeted the guests OF the United States
Hotel when they discovered the menu cards
that they could have strawberry and raspberry
jam. 1t was a reminder of the days when the
mothers of some of the "old boy" delegates used
to keep raspberry and strawberry jam in the dark
corners of the sitting room pantry.
Say Billy" said a gray-haired two hundred
pound urchin TO his messmate. let's have some OF
this raspberry jam. Remember Aunt Mary's rasp-
berry JAM and how good ii used TO taste the
crust of freshly baked bread? Don't you remember
how the jam would melt right into the warm bread
with the butter but 1t couldn't get through because
of the crust? Well Billy we've lived lot worked

ment; but one crime is excuse or defence for
another.
CANNOT CLOAK REAL ISSUES
The fact that Senator Goebel was the author OF a
law under whose provisions the majority or the
men OF Kentucky believed their civil rights were
DESTROYED can never be pleaded at the bar or pub
lie opinion as ground, excuse palliation for his
murder. Nothing be pleaded in eXtenuation OF
assassination. On the other hand. the fact that
he was murdered cannot be used as an argument
addressed to the reason and calm thought of the
men of this State for their support OF party and
a party nominee enacting this law and using for
marty and personal advantage, for dethrontng the
will OF the people its brutal provisions. Such an
argument can be addressed to passion alone. TO
arouse partisan hate to create neghborhood strife
and personal anita gonism. The cry of assassination
ana murder ringing out, reiterated and repeated on
every stump in Kentucky, will not cloak or cover
the real issues between the parties. The Demo-
cratic charge is that Senator Goebel was murdered
by a Republican, aided and assisted by some other
Republicans acting in concert with him. This is
the Democratic position Take II, and what Is the
result? Can you before sensible, reasonable think
ing men charge that crime against an entire party
organiza ton, when that organization denounced
the crime and those guilty OF II? Can murder be
made part OF political creed party platform
an personal conduct because Mr.. Goebel was
killed? Just as nationally could say that steal
ing OF public money was part OF the Democrats

SHARKEY. JEFFRIES.

The celebrated biograph pictures
of the Jeffries-Sharkey contest will
be seen in Hopkihsville Friday
night Jan. 10, at Hollands Opera
House. These are the same pic
lures that were shown in Chicago a
few weeks ago, and were seen at
each performance by over $500
people. No such pictures as these
have ever been seen before, and it
is doubtful whether any such will
be seen again. In order that they
might be perfect Sharkey and
Jeffries fought under a great num-
Der of lights that made the ring ex-
tremely hot. Every move Of the
fighters is shown on the canvas.
The work of the seconds as the men
are in their corners between the
rounds is an interesting feature,
and all the many scenes around the
ring are plainly shown.
The best indications that the
pictures are unusually fine is
shown by the increased attendance
at each performance in Louisville
last week, more people seeing the
exhibition last night than at any
time.
Manager Holland gives his
personal guaranty that the entire
fight of Is rounds will be given
just as they were fought. 1t will
be the most realistic thing of the
kind ever seen on the stage.
