WATCH FOR ST. LOUIS,

lam Purchase Exposition.
Already novel features and schemes
for attractions at the st. Louis fair of
1903 are being planned One Of these
already announced will be a NAM
moth watch. 1t will lie On Its back,
having polished metal case Just like
the ordinary watch, and will be SO
| large and roomy inside that people
| will be able to walk around in it
among the moving wheels. It will be
nearly IS feet in diameter and more
than 40 feet high, with neat little
stairways running all about It. ard all
the wheels properly protected. so that
no one can be hurt The balance
wheel will weigh ton and the hair
spring will be as thick as a mans
wrist 1t will take about two minutes
Tor the balance wheel to swing around
and back again. 1t will be pivoted on
two enormous agate blocks, substi-
tutes for diamonds, and will be made
OF brass. One OF the greatest difficult
ties Will be in getting the balance
spring OF the size and strength that
can stand the strain and keep it's elas-
tlclty. The main spring, of course,
Will be an enormous affair, something
over 300 feet in length and made of 10
spring steel bands two inches thick,
bound together, as 1t would be impos-
slble to roll so large piece, either in
thickness or length. The protector of
the enterprise claims, of course, that
the scheme has an educational side.
Those who visit the watch will be
given instructions, with practical H.
lustrations on the care Of watch.
Guides will point out and name every
part, with Its uses and its proportion
ate movement. The watch will be
wound by steam regularly at a GER
tain hour during the day, to impress
upon watch carriers the necessity OF a
watch having regular hours, whether
Its owner has or not.-Philadelphia

THE New York Sun says, and we be.
lieve it, that SIT is no more the natural
province Of banks to issue circulating
notes than it is for them to run the post
office, maintain an army or a navy, OF
exercise any other government power.
That they have been allowed to do it in
past years is no reason why they should
be allowed to do it forever. The way to
provide the sound, stable and unim-
peachable currency that is desired is to
reserve for the government the sole
power to put the stamp of money on
metal or on paper"

BRECKENRIDGE NEWS.
OUTLOOK AT FRANKFORT.

THE News dropped in on the Legisla-
ture last week and took look at that
august body Of much abused, but intelli-
gent, fair-minded, conscientious law
makers. We are glad we had the pleas
ure OF this visit. Our confidence, es-
TEEN and respect has been raised and
we feel assured that much good will
come out OF this congregation OF the
states representatives yet. 1t is our
humble opinion that they are very much
abused simply because it has become a
habit and privilege OF all the people,
more especially the newspapers to .abuse
them. They take abuse 80 gracefully
that every fellow who can write or speak
thinks it his duty and high privilege to
pounce upon them because it is fsshIon-
able.
We admit that these men are not per-
fect-they are only human like the bal
ance OF us-and are liable to make mis-
takes. But we take it from seeing them
and caring them discuss questions that
theyintend to do the right thing as near
ly as thew can.
We noticed spirit OF rising above
party and desire to do right regardless OF
the would-be bosses. There is a large
element OF this class Of men and we take
ii as a good omen for the state. When
men can rise above party for their coun-
try's sake it means something.
There are some not headed fellows up
there belonging to both parties. They
would create a revolution rather than
give up to the other fellows but over and
against these is good sure majority Of
men who stand for the right, for law and
order and who will see that justice, law
and order prevail.
The contest election cases will be set
tied right. The men who are entitled to
Offices will get them; there'll be no revo-
luton, bloodshed or riot. We have this
much faith in the good men VINO seem
to be in evidence there.

KENTECKY,S lSHAME.

The right thinking and law abiding
men of Kentucky have been made to
blush for shame at the paragraphs which
have appeared and are still appearing in
the papers from other states in regard to
our latest tragedy. And the truth OF
the accusations makes the sting the
keener.
Is not this fierce courage, this spirit OF
revenge, this nursing Of wrongs and this
wreaking of vengeance a relic Of barbsr-
Gus days There is spirit which per-
vades the southland which is not con.
fined to Kentucky-which makes it a
lawful-nay. almost a heroic action to
wipe out ones wrongs in blood.
The shame of Kentucky To-Day is the
acquiescence in this spirit. A rufiian
commits a crime for which he should
hang and mob burns him at the stake;
man calls another liar and hence
forth his life is in jeopardy; and public
sentiment scquiesces in the result.
Life is valued too lightly in Kentucky
and there will be no checking the bloody
stream that flows in the south until re-
spect for the law is inculcated; until the
lesson is learned that no man or body of
men has the right to take private ven.
geance and that threats against life as
we'll as those against property or liberty
are insults to the right of law, with
which the law should deal quickly and
rigidly. Let the press and the pulpit
unite in crusade against the evils of
intemperance and the spirit of VEN
geance and may the day soon come when
this proud old commonwealth will be
free from the bondage Of self-seeking
and revengeiul men who have regard for
neither law nor God.
