The political situation at Frank
fort, KY, took back seat as sub.
ject of interest Tuesday, when a
shooting scrape occurred between Col
Dave G. Colson and Lieut.. Ethelbert
Scott. Scott, Luther Demaree, and
G. H. Julian were killed. Col. Colson,
Capt. B. B. Golden, Harry McEwen
and 0. ID. Redpath were wounded. The
affair grew out of differences between
the two officers when their regiment
the Fourth Kentucky was in service.
Colson has been Judge and member
of Congress and Scott was a nephew
of ex-Gov. Bradley. From a Ken
lucky point of view the episode was
unavoidable and the evidence obtain
able at this distance indicates that
Colson would have been justified in
killing Scott long ago.

Railroading Patents.

A single firm of Patent Lawyers, G.
A. Snow & Co., of Washington, d. c.,
have in the last year procured 1880
patents for their clients, many of
them for rejected inventions. G. A.
Snow & Co. have been accused of rail-
reading patents through the Patent
Office, but they insist that this locomo-
tion is better than ox-carting them
for by the latter process the inventor
often dies before he gets his patent.

CARROLL POSTAL CHANGE
Growing Opposition to the
Wagon Mail System in the
County.

A dispatch to the San FROM
Westminster says: The free rural
mail delivery service inaugaratedl
in Carroll County, December
20, 1898, with ramifications over
the entire county, is now in full
swing. -Four government postof-
fice wagons make daily trips, ex-'
cept Sunday, with Westminster
as the starting and ending point.
Twenty six cross country riders
meet the wagons at designated
points. The system is meeting
with great opposition. The OBJ
Jections to it are not. confined to
any particular locality, but pro.
tests are heard from every sec
ton. The people have been ac.
customed to go to the little coun.
try postotfices to gossip and trade,
and this is broken up. Then the
postmasters who have been dis.
placed do not like the change, be-
cause it diminishes their impor.
lance. Their influence is decided.
ly against the system, and it
counts for great deal. In few
sections of the county the OPPOSE
ton Is bitter. In Myers Dis
trlct four mail boxes were de-
