An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial effects of the well known remedy, SYRUP OF FIGs, manufactured by the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co.,, illustrate the value of obtaining the liquid laxat tive principles of plants known to be incidentally laxative and presenting them in the form most refreshing to the taste and acceptable to the system.

We are not so bad down this way,
for there has. been a regular race war
in New York City itself. About 100
negroes, armed with pistols, razors and
clubs, made an onslaught on an equal

stones for weapons. Despite the ad-
vantage, the negroes were driven to
shelter, but not until there had been
three citizens and a policeman badly
cut or shot None of the negroes were

JUDGE HOWARD wishes it distinctly

ention of being a candidate for State
Senator against Caswell Prewitt. The
Judge is too shrewd lawyer to not
recognize the fact that his candidacy
would only be another case of the lamb
being led to the slaughter. While per
sonally the Judge is very popular and
one of the strongest men in the Repub-
hcan party, still it would be like buck
inc against sure thing brace game for
him t enter the field against Mr.. Prewitt.
The Demo Gratis were never closer togeth-
or in Kentucky than at the present time
and an overwhelming victory in
November is already assured. The

young man the Bourbon Republicans
have induced to suffer himself to be
sacrificed. He is too nice fellow to be
reated in that way, but still when it
comes to voting all Republicans look
