The action of Hamilton county's
delegation IN the Legislature in adopt
ing resolution pledging themselves
to vote as unit and be governed
by the wishes of George B. Cox, of
Cincinnati, Is thing which the Re
publicans don't care to have called up,
says the Youngstown Vindicator.
There are thirteen men elected by the
people who seem to have forgotten
the fact and come to thu conclusion that
instead of being representatives of the
people they are to represent one man in
the Legislature and that man is Geo.
b. Cox, whose coming forward in the
councils of his party not so long ago,
caused storm of indignation to sweep
over the State.

Three saloon keepers in Chicago

address Of the Judge Who sentenced
them, as reported in the Chicago
Tribune:
"By the law you may sell TO men

lie said he bought the hotel for two
reasons: one reason was that he
wanted to have power to discharge
a negro waiter in the hotel who hurt
his feelings once, and whom the
owners refused TO discharge, and
the other reason was that as he had
slept out so much in Colorado he
wanted the best roof in the state to
keep the rain off. He paid one
million two hundred and fifty thou
sand dollars for the hotel, and with
in three minutes after he signed the
check for that vast sum of money,
he took that colored waiter by the
collar Of the coat and fired him
from the hotel. He owns whole
whole blocks Of the finest property
in Denver. He resides in a mag

Oh where il that bud that once blossom

Will we ever see il more?
II shed it, fragrance bright and dear,
Upon life's lonely shore,
That we might learn lesson true,
And to our souls impart
That nothing here, for rs or you,
Can satisfy the heart.
All, what is life; il seems so strange;
Can thought its mystery pierce?
We build our hopes es-then comes

Oh cruel fate so fierce.
This flower that blossomed has faded

But its beauty still will r Sc
Twas human soul, SO good and dear,
Twas ready for the skies.
And so twas callld away from here,
To where they need no prayers,
To join that throng OF souls 60 dear,
In that "IIome" so bright and fair.
Twas Mabel, dear, this bud 20 bright,
Who fingered here awhile;
Then of she sped angelic flight
To wear an angels smile.
Her home was one true type of love,
For those she chanced to see,
And from this home she's gone above
Her homes Eternity.
Yes. Mabel, God has called YOU home
You abored FIR the prize
Now you can fit from zone to zone,
Or journey through the skies.
We miss you now-our tears are shed,
Because of loves sweet ties,
We wall in grief, and call you dead,
You have closed those b. iglt blue eyes;
But then again they II open wide
On Heavens eternal shore,
To view the loved ones on that side,
Till We, here, all pass DER.
Now, Mabel we must say good bye"
How long cannot say,
This word il thrills orr souls-we sigh
We will meet you ''some sweet day."
The distance may not be so far,
Nor the time for starting long,
But you will be our guiding star,
To lea | us to that throng.
Father, mother, sister and broth
ers, do not feel that your star has
gone down in darkness and gloom;
God bids you look up 10 the bright
upper world. See, your star shines
brilliantly there. No, you can
never more on earth be cheered by

Democrats Of the sort that vote

to it that no mistakes are made in

senatorial sub division from one
end of Kentucky to the other,
and we shall see at Frankfort next

Mr.. Watterson is correct in the
main, and all Democrats should
get together to be led by men who
are Democrats, not for revenue
or because father was, but for the
principles enanciated.
The money question is not dead
and as soon as the people see the
issue from a living illustration it
will be approved. But the Music

it.
Mr.. O'Connell has been our
Clerk or Deputy for a number OF

saying Montgomery or any other
county never had a better one.
With every detail Of the office he
is thoroughly acquainted, and un-
der him every office with which
the County Clerks office has had
relations bears evidence Of his
knowledge and methods, in valua-
able suggestions. His card is an
exponent to his Democracy /:
Rather sacrifice personal ambi-
ton than in any way imperil the
success of the party. Such men
have their rewards, and here and
now we present his name to the
Democracy of Kentucky to be
considered as a candidate for clerk
OF the Court of Appeals. Every
grateful Democrat must admit Mr..
O'Connelps fitness for the office
he holds and praise him for the
manner in which his duties have
been performed.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1901-03-26

1t seems from current gossip the
slanderers tongue is busy. The
man or woman who would convey
from mouth to ear sensational cal
umny concerning another needs to
be warned. Character sulled is
hard to cleanse and he who robs
another of a good name is not en-
riched. The despoiler of character
is the most dangerous of all crea-
lures and for damages sustained
there is remedy through the courts.
Beware OF the forked tongued SLAM
derer. His ways are to be abhored,
black in sin and Shiny in touch.
Avoid them as you would demon
and treat them as a serpent.
