No Conspiracy to Kill GOebeI.

Mr.. Ludlow Petty, postmaster of ShelHs
Vile. Ky, at the Riggs.
While | did not admire Mr.. Goebel
personally or politically, l considered his
assassination superlatively foul deed
and nothing in justification of it can be
asserted. But to claim that it was done
with the sanction or connivance OF lead
ing Republicans of Kentucky is to make a
baseless charge, unworthy the credence
of sensible men. The result of his assas
sination has been disastrous to the Il,
publicans of our State. who had to shou

Best Troops of the Allies In China.

THE impression | got during my stay
in China, while the allied armies We're
there. was that the only reliable troops
were those of Great Britain and the
United States" said Mr. H. NJ. Claybroot.
of St. Louis. at the Raleigh.
This observation was not founded on
prejudice I had no previous prediction
for the men who wore the British uniform.
but from frequent contact and association
with the various soldiery | came TO the
conclusion that Uncle Sans boys and
John Bulls were the right sort, and
worth all the rest combined. 1t was re
marked by our men, particularly that the
others were willing to LET the Americans
and English do the fighting. while they
were content To come along and perform
the looting.
Next to the English the Japanese SOL
diers showed the best mettle. The al
lance of Japan and England is, in my
opinion, a natural and proper one, and
very much in the interest of the United
States. Japan, with Englands help, will
be the chief Power in the Orient, and
combined they will be able to thwart the
selfish and ambitious schemes OF the willy
Russians"

Pcttigrew's Charges.

The charge which former Senator Pet
tigrew makes against the members of the
Interstate Commerce Commission, to the
effect that they are in the pay of the
railroads. is one of the most ridiculous
and absurd accusations that ever eman-
ated from a man of any intelligence,
said Mr.. John S HOLSTER, of San Fran
cisco at the Riggs.
Il have no cause whatever TO take up
the cudgels in behalf of the Commission
ers They are fully competent to take
care of themselves. J never was special
w enamored Of the law creating the
Commission, and doubt seriously wheth-
er in all the years that body has 1een in
existence it's operations have done the
great American public much benefit The
trouble is that the Commissioners were
never invested with any real power.
When Senator Pettigrew charged that
they were the agents and hired creatures
of the railroads. he made most wanton
attack on five honorable gentlemen. whose
record for integrity has never been i'm
ueached If what he said were true tley
should be impeached or kicked out of
office within twenty-four hours. If his
attack be groundless he is put in the IN
enyiable light of willful calumnator Of
a dignifed and upright tribunal.
