The situation at present is ominous of

so numerous and startling have been the
mortalities in the majority OF these
Iong-drawn-out battles that history
of them reads like some fascinating ro-
nance.
The Bluegrass State is never free from
these deadly encounters. They are 60
ing on in all parts of the State con-
tinually.. Few of them. however. be-
come so very alarming as TO attain ma
tional notoriety.
A Bloody Family War.
Kentucky is now the scene OF one OF
the greatest of these family wars that
has transpired in the State in the last
dozen years or more. The Cardwell-
Hargis factions have been engaged in
open bloodshed during nearly the whole
of that time, resulting in murders SO
numerous and cold-blooded of late as to
attract the attention of the entire coun-
try.
One peaceful Sunday night some weeks
ago the body of man lay in the shadow
of his office stairs on Court Street In
Jackson. There were twenty-seven holes
in the body, four through the heart. A
few minutes before the flash OF
weapon was twice seen from stable
and a residence on the other side Of the
street, and twice the report Of shot
gun had been heard. Following the first
report a figure was seen to hurry across
the street and empty his gun into the
breast of the fallen man.
Belated Assistance.
II was some little time before friends
yentured to carry the body away. Peo-
pie keep indoors when they hear shots
on the streets of Jackson and ask no
questions. Assistance came after time,
and kline hands bore the body of DR.. B.
d. Cox TO his residence, but little dis
tance away. The wise shrugged their
shoulders and said nothing of this new
bloody incident in the Hargis-Cardwell
feud. It is scarcely safe to talk on SO
serious a subject.
Not half an hour before DR.. Cox had
stood st the foot of his office steps and
remarked to a friend, ''I don't like the
signs tonight. Somebody is going to be
killed" Six feet four, strong. brave,
and patient, he forgot that the signs
were bad whe a call came to his office
to visit patient, and with his physi-
clans satchel in his hand be walked
down the-outside steps with no thought
of danger. He had not gone half dozen
steps when the report OF the assassin's
gun alarmed the neighborhood and he
fell dead in the street.

IS IT AN EPIDEMIC?
Vital Statistics Show an Alarming
Increase in an Already Prevailing
Disease-Are Any Exempt?

At no time in the history of disease
has there been such an alarming in
crease In the number of cases of any
particular malady as in that of kidney
and bladder troubles now proving
upon the people Of this country.
Today we see relative, "a friend or
an acquaintance apparently well, and
in q few days we may bee grieved to
learn Of their serious illness or sudden
death, caused by that fatal type of
kidney trouble-Bright's disease.
Kidney trouble often becomes adj
vanced into acute stages before the
afflicted is aware of it's presence; that
is why we read of SO many sudden
deaths Of prominent business and pro-
fessional men, physicians and others.
They have neglected to stop the leak
in time.
While scientists are puzzling their
brains to find out the cause, each In
dividual can, by a little precaution,
dreaded and dangerous kidney trou-
BILE, or eradicate 1t completely from
their system If already afflicted. Many
precious lives might have been, and
many more can yet be saved, by pay
ing attention to the kidneys.
It Is the mission of T he Globe to
benefit its readers at every opportunity
and therefore we advise all who have
any symptoms Of kidney or bladder
trouble to write today to DR.. Kilmer
& Co., Binghamton. N. Y, for free
sample bottle of Swamp Root, the
celebrated specific which is having
such a great demand and remarkable
success in the cure of the most dis
tressing kidney and bladder troubles.
With the sample bottle Of Swamp
Root will also be sent free a pamphlet
and treatise of valuable information.
Don't make any mistake, but re-
member the name, Swamp Root, DR..

dress. Binghamton. N. Y, on every

DURAND TO REMAIN ON TICKET.
Will Lead Michigan Democrats in Spite
of His Illness.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Sept. g.
Despite the paralytic stroke which he
suffered week ago and from which he
is now slowly recovering, Judge George
H. Durand, Of Flint, will remain the
Democratic candidate for governor and
head the party ticket in the fall cleo
ton. This decision was arrived at at
special meeting Of the Democratic
state central committee here today. L.
l.. Durand, brother of the nominee, ap-
peared before the committee and made
a statement as to his brothers cOndi-
ton. He said that the judges family
had left it to him to decide whether or
not the judges name should be left on
the ticket
All things considered, Mr.. Durand
said, he did not feel like requesting
that the name be taken off. He left the
matter to the committee to act on it as
it thought best after hearing Of Judge
Durand's condition. After short Sc
cret session the committee adopted
resolutions declaring that Judge Dur
ands name should be left at the head
of the ticket in view Of the present en-
couragement for his speedy recovery.
The formal address accepting the nom
nation which Judge Durand was to
have read to the committee here today
was read this afternoon by his brother,
it having been written before the judge
was stricken.

4 CHARGES OF ExToRTioN
Minneapolis Man, Under Indictment
Jointly With Chief of Police Fred
w. Ames, Is Brought Back From
Butte, Mont, and Case Is Set for
Sept. is.

Precisely at 1850 yesterday afternoon
''Reddy' Cohen, accompanied by Dep
uty Sheriff Alexander, appeared in
Sheriff Dreger's office in the court
house.
Attorney Hall and his client proceed
ed to Judge Brooks cpurt room, where
he was arraigned.
Criminal Clerk Royce read three in
dictments against him. The first was
joint indictment against him and Fred
w. Ames, specifically and generally,
charging them with conspiracy to ex-
tort money from women and also of
extorting sI5 from one Addie Mills, 900
Third avenue south, Jan. s, 1902.
The other two indictments charged
him with extorting $15 on Feb. 4, 1902,
from Addie Mills, and on Jan. 8, 1902,
Of extorting SIS from Ida Elliott, 257
Third avenue south.
Pleads Not Guilty.
The money, 1t is stated, was paid
over to Cohen with the distinct under
standing that they would be granted
immunity from arrest and prosecution,
contrary to law.
The witnesses to the indictments
were Addie Mills, Otto Wirtensohn,
plain clothes detective, and Ida Elliott.
Cohen pleaded not guilty to the sew
eral indictments, and Attorney Hall
asked until Friday to withdraw the
pleas should he decide to demur to
the indictments. The cases were set
for trial on Monday, Sept. Is.
County Attorney Boardman then ask
ed that bail be fixed in the amount of
$4,000 on one of the indictments, which
he thought was sufficient S. B. Abeles,
A. Goldman and M. L. Cohen qualified
as sureties.
When Cohen arrived at the depot his
wife was in waiting for him with a
carriage. He claimed that he was not
under arrest, but Capt. Alexander told
Cohen If he preferred to ride in his own
carriage, that he would be obliged to
accompany him.
Deputy Has His Way.
Cohen objected strenuously to this,
and said it was the distinct UNDER
standing when they left Butte that he
would not be placed under arrest until
he appeared at the court house. Capt.
Alexander Informed him that he had
been under arrest all of the time and
especially since they arrived within the
borders of the state.
After some argument Cohen submit
ted to the inevitable, as Alexander was
not inclined to be lenient in the matter.
Cohen had nothing to say on the
subject of the charges on which he was
indicted, simply saying there was moth
ing that he wished TO make public at
the present time. He said he could
certainly prove his innocence of the
charges

SUGGESTS STRIPES FOR TRUSTS.
Mr.. Bryan Hints at Drastic Action for the
MaunateS.

JOPLIN. Mo, Sept. .9.-The Democratic
campaign in Missouri was opened here
this evening at a meeting attended by
5000 people. William J. Bryan was the
principal speaker. William j. Stone, ma
tional committeeman, and candidate for
senator to succeed George T.. Vest, Gov.
Dockery and Mayor James A. Reed. Of
Kansas City, also spoke. Mr.. Bryan talked
at length on the tariff, saying among 9th
er things that it was time to take the
tariff off at least all kinds Of trust made
goods. The country, he said, could not
look to the Republicans for reforms in
tariff matters, adding:
"There were more righteous men in
Sodem and Gomorrah than there are tar
iff reformers in the Republican party"
He declared that President Roosevelt
had no remedy for the trust evil and that
some of his utterances on the subject
were absurd.
Continuing, he said:
II tell you one trust magnate in stripes
behind the prison walls would do more
to break up trusts than all the speeches
the president can make. The constitu-
tional amendment the Republicans are
talking about is not meant for the regu-
lation of trusts, but to take the power to
control trusts away from the state and
so protect the trusts.
