EDITORIAL PARAGRAPHS.

1t is reported that the English Govern.
ment will soon negotiate new war loan
aggregating 5000, 1000, 900 and that large
amount of the loan ia likely to be placed
in the United States. The impression in
New York is that $50, 600, 900 of three per
cent. bonds can be fioated in this country
at par.
The existing troubles in China, it is be-
lieved, are seriously affecting the cotton
trade. That country has been furnishing
markets for large percentage of the
manufactured products of Southern cotton
mills. 1t is to the interest Of the South
that the troubles in China be speedily set.
tied and that our trade with that country
be restored to normal conditions.
We regret to notice that there is dis
position being manifested to make the
coming constitutional convention parti.
san body. The Richmond Dispatch re-
Gently stated that the Democratic caucus
would control matters, and for that reason
Republicans would be nothing more than
figure heads in the convention, as they
could not enter the Democratic caucus.
We do not quote the Dispatch literally,
but give the idea of that paper.
The Cuban constitutional convention has
appointed five delegates to go TO Washing
ton and confer with President Mckinley
with regard to the future relations between
Cuba, and the United States. The com.
mission has also been instructed to confer
with Governor General Wood as TO the
date of their departure and the time for
having an interview with the President.
It is very evident that the Cubans will act.
with discretion in settling the relations OF
their island and our Government, unless
they are misled and influenced by some OF
our own citizens in the other direction.

Pulaski to be placed before the Joint con-

C. Wysor defeated T. l.. Massie by l5l
majority. The total vote polled at the

strength. The Giles delegates are instruct

may be necessary to trot out new man to

Letter to Surface & White,
TdzereH, Va.

Dear Sirs One coat Of Devoe is better
than two of mixed paint.
The American House, at Tannersville
(Catskill Mts.), N. Y, Chas. L. Wiltse,
had two coats of Mixed Paint five years
ago; last spring had two more coats of the
same.
Owner was going to use Devoe but got
his Mixed Paint few cents less.
Right across the street, Charles Haner
painted one coat of Devoe at the same
time-last spring.
The Haner house is the better job; but
wait five years.
The point of the story is that Wiltse is
sorry already He has learned something
that not one man in a thousand knows
that gallon of one kind Of paint can con-
tain twice as much paint as gallon OF
another kind Of paint.
You can't afford to put on another paint
even if you have it given to you. At the
same time, you see, the Mixed Paint ap'
pears to have worn five years-give the
devil his due.
Yours truly,
"a f. w. DEvoE & Co.

town two families, armed to the teeth, are
preparing to wage war of determination
against each other. The Reynolds and
Wrights, long bitter enemies, have again
commenced hostilities. 1t is the old story
of family and political feud. The entire
community has taken sides and no one can
tell what the end will be.
"The dark and bloody ground" prom
ises to again be the scene of bloodshed'
The present outbreak was caused by the
killing of young Willie Wright on last Fri
day by one of the Reynolds faction. The
Wrights swore vengeance, and both taml'
lies are now in the mountains seeking each
others blood.
The Reynolds have been reinforced by
twenty men and the Wrights by twelve
The reinforcemenls are kept concealed and
all preparations are made for big battle
The combatants are within 800 yards Of
each other, and both command view ol
the surroundings.
John Reynolds, who is desperately
wounded, is guarded by dozen picked
men. He is not expected to recover.
The body of Willie Wright, who was
killed in the battle at Boones Fork Fri
day, was buried yesterday at Sargent. The
body of his father, w. S. Wright, wa'
brought from a grave near Soone's Fork
and father and son were buried in the
same grave. There was simple service
by Baptist Elder Hall.

MARYLAND'S ELECTION LAW
Gwen a Practical Test at Frederick
Yesterday.

Frederick, Md, April l6.-The first
election held in the State under the new
election law was the municipal election in
this city today. George E. Smith, Dem
ocrat, was elected mayor by majority of
1873 over w. H. Ramsburg, Republican.
The Democrats elect all the aldermen by
average majorities of about 100. E. A.
Gettinger, Republican, for register, is
elected by 81 majority. Many ballots
were defective.
The action of the supervisors in putting
tie word Democratic" after the name Of
each Democratic candidate 30 that it
would conform in style and appearance
and occupy exactly the same space on the
ballot as the word Republican" caused
much complaint among the Republican
managers.
1t is said that the colored illiterates were
instructed to vete for the long name and
when the Democrats learned this they
changed the word Democrat to "Dem'
ocratic." Then, according to general re-
ports, the illiterates were told to vote fol
William II. Ramsburg, who heads the
ticket, the Republican candidate for may
or, E. A. Gettinger, who heads the ticket
on the second block, the Republican can
didste for register, and to let the rest o.
the ticket go, as any attempt to vote fol
an aldermanic candidate might endangel
the ballot.

neighborhood for several years about get
ting up company of cavalry. He came
to Frankfort first on January l6, the day
of the ColsonScott tragedy, selecting this
day in order to see William ]. Bryan, who
was to be banqueted here that night. He
had never known Governor Taylor till
that day and never saw him but once
after that, January 25, till after his COM
pany was called. Taylor gave him tie or
der January l6 for the organization of the
company and on January % Ripley came
here and secured equipments for it. This
was the day on which he had the conver-
sation with Taylor and his version of it
which varies materially from that stated
by Messrs. Bradley and Yost, WAS as fol-
lows
81 went into the governors Office and
found Governor Taylor looking very bad
ly. told him l was sorry to see him
looking SO badly, to which he replied in
substance: in these horrible times any
body would look badly. Some lrrespon-
sible fool or crank is likely to kill me or
kill Goebel, and cause riot around here
in which there will be MANY lives sacri'
feed Tren / told him did not think
this would occur and went on talking to
him about my company, which l was get
ting equipments for. My God said he,
haven't you got that company ready yet?'
That was what was trying to tell Cover
nor Bradley and Judge Yost, but may
not have stated it to them as clearly as
intended to-"
Ripley denied that he ever said to Fer
guson and Crawford that Goebel would be
killed but admitted that he warned w.
P. Thorn on January 20 to keep his son
away from Frankfort, claiming that he did
so because of the disturbed conditions here,
and not from any knowledge of what was
going to occur the next day. He main
tanned that there was no secrecy about
the organization and equipment Of bis
company and said that Governor Taylor
told him that it was not necessary to ap-
ply to the county judge for authority to
organize it. The company, he paid, was
organized for pleasure.
Witness said he received special de-
livery letter from Governor Taylor late in
the afternoon of January 80 ordering the
company out. The letter did not state
that Goebel had been shot and did not
give the reason for calling them out.

Frankfort, KY, April 15.-The trial of
Garnet Ripley, charged with completely in
the assassination of William Goebel, was
resumed today. Put upon the witness
stand, Ripley did not deny that he made
the statements attributed to him by ex-
Governor Bradley and Judge W. II. Yost
concerning Ex-Governor Taylor's remarks
to him, but said that while he thought
that they were substantially correct in
their evididence they had misunderstood
him or he had failed to convey the proper
impression on them at the time. The
cross-examination was not completed and
Ripley will take the stand again tomorrow.
On direct examination Ripley stated that

AS everyone knows, person SUBJ
ject to rheumatism or afflicted with
cornsl is a pretty good barometer,
but tits not everybody that knows
why. The Chicago Chronicle has
secured scientific explanation
which is asfollows: "When storm
is approaching the air is somewhat
rarified. The pressure upon the
surface OF the body being reduced
the blood and all other fluids in the
body expand and the increased
pressure at sensitive points causes
pain. 1t is this pressure that
causes nose bleed in high attitudes

the nose.
