A stranger IA large city would
place far more dependence on the di-
rections given him by a local resident
than the guidance Of another stranger
like himself. This is natural conse-
quence of experience; it's like ship
in strange port-a trusty pilot famil-
lar with the harbor is always called
upon to bring her safely to her moor
ings. So 1t is with Endorsement; we
doubt the saying OF people living at
distant points because we can't investi-
gate, but public expression of local
citizens can be depended on, for tits an
easy matter to prove it. Evidence like
the following is beyond dispute.
Mrs. r. r. Housh of 394 Forest ave.,
says:-"Doan's Kidney Pills quickly
relieved Mr.. Housh of backache which
had been a source OF discomfort to him
for some time. l procured the remedy

WHAT do you think of Republican
Judge sentencing a Republican
"heeler'' for violating the election
laws? For the benefit OF Br'er MARSH,
who said upon recent occasion
that a Republican Court was never
known to decide a matter against the
Republicans, the action OF Judge
WALTER s. EVANS of the Federal
Court at Louisville is cited.
In passing sentence upon con-
victed man he said
"Mr. DUMMITT, the Jury, after a
fair trial, found you guilty OF having
hindered and controlled certain per-
sons in exercising and OF having pre-
vented them from exercising the right
to vote at Middlesboro, KY, by means
of bribery. The persons thus him
dered were colored men, and you paid
So to each OF them not to vote. You
say you did this at the request Of
Judge SAULsBURY, who supplied you
with. the money for the purpose, but
this does not lessen your offense, how
ever much it might subject him to
punishment. Us
You haze also intruded the suggeS-
ton that you are a Republican, as
though you expected that 10 serve as
some pdlliGtiOn. 10 lUitL not do So.
Indeed, it is too frequently the case
that in frauds upon the elective fran
chise persons OF at least nominally
opposing political parties cooperate
in carrying out the corrupt purpose.
Often this is the only way in which it
can we'll be done. But OF all such
men it is difficult to think otherwise
than that they are merely rascals, who
disgrace a party name. IL may be
that you are more sinned against
than SHINING in this instance, and il
so it is to be hoped that there may be
punishment for those who misled you
and misused you. Certainly your
physical condition and the poverty OF
your family appeal to the sympathies
OF the Court. The laws, however,
must be enforced, and men who violate
them must suffer the penalty; and the
judgment OF this Court is that you be
confined in the County Jail for the
period OF thirty days and that you pay
fine OF 81 ,000."
In view Of the foregoing, it might
be prudent for some gentlemen in
Lewisburg and Washington Precincts
to be careful on the coming election
day.
Uncle Sam might have an eye on
them.

THE LEDGER rather prides itself on
its ability as a Prophet. When the
trial OF CALEB Powers began, it said
he would be convicted; it said the
same OF JIM HOWARD; it said the
same Of poor HENRY YoUTsEY; and
it now says the latter,-ii not natu-
rally dead before that time, will be
pronounced guilty by CANTRILL
before Sundays sunrise. 1t said all
these things in spite OF the opinions
OF able and learned lawyers to the con-
trary. More than that, it said the
Goebelized- zed-Cantrillized-Beckhamize d
Legislature did not intend to pass a
fair election law--and it hasn't.
