MAN ISN'T IN IT.

The COW in Paducah seems to be
singularly fortunate. 1t is beginning
TO be a serious question whether it
were not better to be COW in Psdu-
cab than a man most anywhere else.
The COW, in the first place, is free and
independent, and does not have to
work for living. She does not have
to pay taxes at the rate Of sl.es to
meet the extrsvagances Of a olod-
hopper administration, and does not
have to live next to SEINE man who
runs his dish water into the gutter, or
transact business next 10 the man who
has his porter sweep the filth from his
store across the sidewalks on Broad
way every morning into the faces of
passersby. There are no bills for rent,
water, gas or electric light to pay, no
ice, beef roast OF other Injuries TO
buy, and she can stop car anywhere
she desires, whether it happens to be
on the corner or not.
When the COW desires flowers in any
quantity she does not have to goto the
florists and pay dollar and half a
dozen, like the poor human being, but
simply takes what she likes best. She
is amenable to no law. She breaks
into a mans yard and takes what she
sees, and is suffered TO go free. If it
were a man who did the same thing he
would be arrested for trespass or lar.
ceny, and go to jail for it. But the
COW is more fortunate than the man.
She enjoys more privileges She can
interfere with any and everybody,
take what she wants, If she can get TO
it, and her meals come regularly Just
the same. We are beginning 10 think
that Councilman Potter was right
when he Landed her to the skies If
the whole earth wasn't created FOR
her, it looks IS if Psducah was, at
least.

In pursuance Of this policy, the CON-
mittee will, as soon as the next meet
ing Ne held, make an effort to secure
the volunteer services of leading Re-
publican orators from all parts of the
country for the coming campaign. 1t
is proposed to rely upon the literary
work until about the LIST of Septem-

TEE COMING CAMPAIGN.

The Republican party will during
the coming campaign inaugurste a
change in its methods, and instead of
distributing the usual amount Of lit
erature throughout the country, will
have the best speakers that can be
found. A Washington dispatch says:
1.-THE sentiment of the committee is
against the policy of flooding the
country with campaign literature dur
ing the coming campaign. 1t has been
the custom in years past to send i'm
mense quantities of congressional
speeches throughout the country. The
good effect of this plan is not ques-
toned, although the members of the
committee believe that this branch Of
the work has been oveidone. They
believe that the people of the country
are too buoy this year to spend mach
of their time in reading speeches by
congressman on any subject. Indi-
vidual memoers who are seeking re-
. election will naturally distribute a
great deal Of campaign literature. and
the members of the general committee
are disposed to look to that source for
most of their literary efforts OF that
character.
"Instead of the usual liberal supply
of printed matter, the members of the
executive committee are planning an
appeal to the people direct, through
speakers of national reputation, who
will be urged to take the stump in the
coming campaign. Developments are
appearing rapidly in a number of mat
tiers of national Importance, and the
adjournment of congress will not end
them. Members of the committee con-
tend that 1t will be better TO have pub
lie speakers address tine voters of the

Paine'S Celery
Compound
Has Proved a Blessing to all
Ranks and Conditions
Of People in
Summer.
"A Prominent and Popular Chicago
Lady Restored to
Health,

The success of Paine's Celery Com
pound in banishing the ills and dis
eases that follow people into the sum
mer time has not been confined 20 any
particular class of society. Men es-
teemed in Business and professional
life, mechanics, farmers, women lead
ers in society, and the wives and
mothers of Rumble homes have all by
voice and pen contributed strong tes-
timony in favor of the medicine that
restored them to health and strength.
When Paine's Celery Compound is
used there is no more neuralgia,
rheumatism, dyspepsia, stomach
arrangements, liver or kidney
troubles. The blood, once foul and
stagnant, is made fresh and pure, and
courses with a regularity that brings
vigor and happiness. The use Of one
bottle is often sufficient to establish
a health robust enough to combat the
dangers and perils that are common in
hot weather.
Mrs. A. 7. Lermond, Chicago, Ill,
corresponding secretary of the W. G
7 u, tells Of her complete restoration
to health through the use of Psine's
Celery Compound. The great med
icine was prescribed by one of Chi
oago's ablest physicians. Mrs. Ler-
mond says;
"a few years ago / went through a
surgical operation. After being in
bed for four months was able to sit
up. but was exceedingly weak and
worn, nervous and unable 20 sleep or
eat. My physician prescribed Paine's
Celery Compound, and at once be-
gan to feel stronger. After using a
few bottles my health and strength
were completely restored. and am
glad to give this testimonial in its
favor"

the displeasure of the United States.
His feeling has never been good
towards as since the asphalt lake con-
troversy, and he was so bitter in his
enmity towards Minister Loomis that
the latter had to be transferred to
Portugal. HIS latest offense is to en-
force such rigid censorship that we
cannot get diplomatic messages to or

is considered as an affront. The gov
eminent is thinking of dispatching a

unable to receive a reply from our

No action was taken by the council

said yesterday; The telephone COM

property, whatever that may be.
Neither the assessor, the board Of

to arbitrarily assess anything, and if
the corporation does not possess $780,
900 worth of taxable property it
should not be taxed on that amount.

payment Of all just taxes, but it does
not approve of the unjust methods
