Although the pulse is considerably

are saying little. 1t will be at least
two weeks, according to the commonly

The Kentucky democratic State
and executive committees by a vote OF II
to Z have defeated the proposition to
nominate candidate for United State
Senator by a popular primary election.
Former Governor McCreary aud Judge
Canrill appeared before the commit
tee and stated that they regarded the
primary plan as impracticable. The
trainers Of the constitution of the Uoited
States, who were pretty smart old fel.
lows. thought it best for the Senators
10 be elected by the legislatures Of the
different States and so provided for
their election, and 1t is more than prob
able that any change in the manner
OF their election would be for the worse
rather than for the better. Politics lie
now reaching such point throughout
the country that money, and not talent,
secures a seat in the Senate and if
man for this position is to be elected by
the entire people of State, then soon
will only rich men offer themselves for
this high Office.

THE DANGER OVER.

that he felt free to depart and that he

THE EXPULSION OF Senator Yelling.
ton from the Union League Club OF
Maryland las. night was probably as
precipitate as were his remarks concern
ing the attempted assassination o
President Mckinley. The Senator may
have spoken without proper reflection.
and probably after all sympathizes with
the executive of the nation who, shot
down and sorely wounded, deserves
the sympathy OF all. We prefer to be-
lieve that be spoke rashly and did not
express his real feelings. But his re-
fectious, after all, were ill-timed and 10
no manner calculated to produce ad-
ditional lustre TO. him as a Senator of
the United States. An old and well
known Alexandrian, who was at one
time Mayor and long since passed away
had a motto to the effect that no man
regrets having said too little in this life,
while the good book tells us TO be quick
to hear and Glow to speak. Senator Well
ipgton is doubtless, like many others,
afflicted with caceothes loquendi. end
at times allows too much rein to the
little member which none can safely
bride and which so often "setteth oD

temptation

THE CONTINUED favorable symptoms
manifested by President Mckinley are
a:source OF qualification throughout the
country. TIE prayers which have gone
up from honest hearts are not, it Is be-
lieved, to be 10 vain. Today's bulletins
mark additional proofs OF steady APP
proach toward conyslescence. Ofcourse
there are contingencies which are beyond
the ken of the physicians and with
which they might be unable to cope.
But there are no signs whatever of such
now, and all are encouraged to look at
the case from an optimistic standpoint.

REPORTS FROM the Constitutional
Convection state that one of the most
interesting facts that have developed
during the committee meetings is that
every committee having before 1t the
election OF officers by the people has
decided against such step. The COM
mittee on judiciary is opposed to the
election of judges by the people; the
committee on executive departments
has voted against electiug the treasurer,
auditor and secretary of the common
wealth by the people. and the commit
tee on education does not favor the
election of school superintendent by
the people. And it is good thing for
the State that the committees have
reached these conclusions. There Is
good deal OF demagogy about all this
talk.o popular elections" by the peo-
pie, which comes with poor grace from
men who are striving and expected 10
curtsil universal suffrage.
