The Coming Town Election.

The interest shown in the coming election for town officials Is refreshing to those who have heretofore noticed with regret the indifference of the tax payers in past elections. The princi- pal idea of the taxpayers at present is to select the best men in the commun- ity for candidates for town officials, and to that end all are agreed. The only difference of opinion being as to the method of selection. The SUN suggests that each political party place a ticket in the field thus making the parties responsible for the character of tle men placed on the respective tickets. This method would be a great improvement of the for ner haphazard way of selecting candidates, and result in liveIier interest in the affairs of the town.

POWERS IN JAIL.

Frankfort, KY, March 27.-
Spectators were excluded from
the court room today during the
trial of Powers, charged with
being an accessory in the assas-
sination of Goebel.
The defense announced they
would not introduce any testlmo-
ny and the prosecution agreed
not to argue the case.
Counsel Brown offered the par
don of Powers which was grant
ed by republican Gov. Taylor.
Here the defense claimed that
Taylor not being governor had
no right whatever to issue a par
don.
Judge Moore refused to recog-
nize the pardon. The motion was
made to dismiss the prisoner.
This was refused.
Brown then asked that Powers
be admitted to bail, Judge Moore
was firm and refused bail, and
in binding Powers over to the
grand jury said Il believe the
prisoner was connected with the
conspiracy that resulted in the
killing of Governor Goebel. "
Powers was then taken to Jail.
1t is predicted that Culton will
be continued at home under
guard and that Davis will be
released on bail.

Which Caused the SpiIlins of British
Blood, and Their Reireat-Rob-

London, March 26.-Except
for the unfortunate occur
renee" as Lord Roberts calls it,
which resulted in the killing of
Lieutenant Lygonand the wound
ingand capture of Lieutenant Col
onel Crabbe, Lieutenant Colonel
Codrington and Captain Trotter,
the campaign presents no new
features. The mishap to the
Guards officers is testimony
of their bravery but not of their
discretion. They met party of
five Beers, whom they tried to
capture. The Beers took refuge
on a kopje, where three of their
comrades were hidden, and with
in five minutes every member of
the British party was hit.
Apparently little progress is
being made toward the relief of
Mafeking. A private telegram
from a lieutenant at Kimberly
dated Wednesday, March 81,
announces that he was on the
point of starting for Mafeking,
presumably with the relief col
umn.
Gen. Sir Forester Walker and
Prince Alexander of Teck have

1t is reported from Ladysmith

Mail accounts of the capture
of Gen. Cronje, just received,
bring out interesting points as
to the rapidity with which Lord
Roberts changed his plans when
he found that Gen. Cronje had
escaped from Magersfontein,
where it was originally intended
to attack or close in upon him.
Lord Kitchener was sent for ward

battle of Paardeburg, Lord
Kitchener seems to have shown
that he is better as an organizer
than as fighter, for it was al

Britishers to get within thous
