sAYH BRYAN AND HAzELRIod.

When the 1897 majority OF 1900
was overturned by the split in the
party last year, aud 1900 Demo-
Gratis voted for Brown and as many
more either voted for Taylor or re-
fused to 60 to the polls, the result
was not merely plurality for
Taylor The Appellate district now
represented by Judge Hazelrigg
went Republican by 3,400 majority
and the Third, Fourth, Fifth.
Eighth, Ninth and Tenth districts,
now represented by Democrats,
were carried by Taylor In the
Second district, the Democratic ma
jority of 600 in 1896 was cut down
to 200, with a net gain of 725 in
Christian county But for the good
work done in this county the DEM
ocratlc majority would have been
less than 900 votes with the race
made this year on the same lines
the Democrats cannot elect more
than four Congressman and the
Court of Appeals will become Re-
publican, calamity worse than
Republican Legislature. Hanna
is already claiming Kentucky and
as the Federal Court is not prose-
cutting Republicans for buying
white votes there are no serious
obstacles in The way of Republi-
cans corrupting the ballot with
money. On the other hand a Dem
ocratic farmer cannot hire a negro
to drive his wagon on election day
being threatened with the
penitentiary. Former contests in
Kentucky dwindle into insignifi-
canoe when comparedto the one just
ahead us.
The Courier-Journal has sounded |
a note of warning. Senator Black
burn is counseling harmony. |
Thoughtful leaders all over the
State are alive to the party danger,
and we believe the wisdom OF the
party for once will assert itself.
Many of the Brown Democrats in
this city openly state they Will vote
Tor any good man not prominent in
the fight last year. 1t is said
Judge Hazelrigg will accept a re-
nomination if a good conservative
eader is put up to bring back the
vote and bring out the
Democrats.
Black and Hazelrigg both on the
icket could redeem the Seventh APP
,ellate district and the 9th and 10th
Congressional districts.
Any good new man could unite
he party and save the 3rd, 4th and
3th districts. 1t is even possible to
elect a Democrat in the 5th by
pulling together, but it cannot be
lone by a rule or rum policy.
With such men to choose from
as Black, Lewis, and Nc
Creary, it will be disloyalty to
Bryan to handicap him with our
factional fights and invite defeat in
November.

PETITIONS are being circulated
to have the State of Kansas, which
owns Gao acres of land at Hutchiu-
son. undcrlaid with n 300 foot vein
of salt, open up the same and use
the convict labor to produce salt.
This, the petition alleges, is ncces-
sary to protect the people against
the cxtortion of the salt trust
which raised the price of salt 100
per cent last month. As the Re
publican Legislature instituted the
State Irvine factory which has
saved the farmers hundreds of
thousands of dollars, it will be
pretty hard for the same fellows to
give IA good excuse why they
should not protect the people from

GENIUS is ECCENTRIC.
As Is Proved by Some Recent Doings
OF Actors.


The ancient wearers OF the sock and
buskin had many draw backs to con-
tend against. The strollers who SOL
EMMY performed their parts on the
insecure boards of cart must have
felt at times that they were leaving
altogether too much to the magma
ton OF the open-mouthed auditors.
Yet We have no reason to believe that
they ever cut short a tragedy because
Of these unpleasant restrictions, nor
that they rudely drove away in the
midst of a mutilated comedy. 1t re.
mains for the later-day actor, with
his wealth Of realistic surroundings,
to flare up over tribes and bare his
quiyering nerves before presumably
sympathetic audience. Miss Julia
Arthur stops her performance and de-
nounces the murmur of a chattering
throws up his hands in disgust and
rings down the curtain because Of a
suffering steam pipe. Perhaps he
felt at the moment very much as the
oldtime actor did when greatly an
noyed by the crying of an infant child.
breaking Off abruptly, he advanced to
the footlights and gravely observed:
Unless the play stops, the child can
not go on" Mr.. Mansfield, however,
said nothing-at least, nothing audi
BE to the audience. He tacitly con-
''ssed his unwillingness to match the
ordinary vocal pipes against the va
pory sort, and rang down the curtain.
Genius has always borne reputation
for eccentricity, but only in later
years has 1t burst through the en-
vironments of time. and place, and
professional obligation, and domi-
mated its chosen field. The musical
genius MARBLES or thrums at will; the
actor treads the boards at will. Per-
haps this independence OF action will
mark the other professions in time.
Genius has become. in measure,
petty autocrat, and as long as there
are seryile necks for 1t to pirouette
upon, II may be expected to show still
further proofs OF unpleasant eccen-
tricitv.
