FAITH REALERS
AN IMPORTANT DECISION FROM
NEW YORK.

ALBANY, Oct. 14.-Especiai interest
attaches TO the decision handed down
today by the Court of Appeals in the
case of the people VS.. Pierson, declsr-
ing dependencies on faith healing in
the case Of sickness to be criminal
negligence.
Pierson lives at White Plains, and
early In 1901, was sentenced to $500
fine or 500 days imprisonment for
criminal neglect in failing to provide
. licensed physician to attend his i6.
months.old adopted daughter in case
Of bronchial pneumonia which after
ward proved fatal The conviction
was secured under the penal code.
In his opinion. written by Judge
Haight, the Court Of Appeals says:
1.-THE section Of the code under
which the indictment was found con-
templates that there are persons upon
whom the law casts o duty of caring
for minors.
1--WE are aware that there are people
who believe that the divine power
may be invoked to heal the sick, and
that faith is all that is required.
There are others who believe the
Creator has supplied the earth. ma
ture q storehouse, with everything that
man may want for his support. and
maintenance, including the restoration
and preservation Of his health. and
that he IL left to work ont his own
salvation, under fixed natural laws.
There are still others who believe that
Christianity and Science 60 hand in
hand, both proceeding from the Gre
ator. That Science is but the agency
Of the Almighty, through which
agency he accomplishes results, and
that both science and Divine power
may be invoked together to restore
diseased and suffering humanity. But
sitting as a court Of law, for the pur-
pose Of constituting and determining the
meaning Of statutes, we have nothing
to do with variance in religious belief
ard have no power to determine which
is correct. We phase no limitations
upon the power Of the mind over the
body, the power OF the faith to dispe
the disease or the power OF the Su
preme Being to heal sick. We merely
declare the law rs given us by the
legislature. We find no error on the
part Of the trial court"

NOT REPUBLICANS.

The Sun desires to call the attention
of Republicans in Paduoah to the fact
that the independent ticket put out
several days.ago in Paduoah 10 IN no
respect b Republican ticket, and should
not receive the support Of loyal Re-
publioans.
The Republicans Of Paduoah have q
ticket Of their own in the field, and
have . platform which shows where
they stand. All true Republicans will
support this ticket. The independent
ticket was put ont by Democrats.
The meeting at which the nominations
were made was called BY Democrat
who formerly held an appointive office
under the present Democratic admin
istration, and o former Democratic
offioeholder presided. A large major
ity of the men in the organization
which is largely responsible for the
ticket are Democrats. Those Republi-
cans on this independent ticket, il
they accept the nominations, will be.
come boilers. Most of them partioipat-
ed in the recent Republican mass con-
vention. and are honor bound to sup
port the nominees of that cow ention.
They have a right to become boilers if
they choose and to vote for whomever
they please, but when they do no Re-
publican is under any obligations to
vote for them. When they accept
n ominations ON an opposing ticket
t,ey are no longer Republicans, and
should not expect to be treated as
such. Every loyal Republican should
vote the straight Republican ticket,
and let the Democrats and the indepen-
dent ticket which ia so ingeniously
bsited with Republicans to catch suck
ers, fight it out between themselves.
The Republican ticket has no past rec
ord to be ashamed Of, and promises to
give the people Of Paducah clean,
progressive and economical admins.
tration, which is all sensible men car
ask.
An effort is being made by the
Democratic machine to have the Dem
ocrats in Paducah believe the indepen
dent ticket was put out by Republi
cans, so they will not vote for it. AL
loyal Republicans are given to under
stand that the Republicans have ,
ticket Of their own and all true Re
publicans will support it.

that Boschee's German Syrup is posi-
lively the only preparation on the
market today that does relieve and
cuee consumption. 1t contains the
specifics, such as pure tar, extracts Of
gums, etc. which have been so highly
endorsed for the cure of coughs, colds
and consumption by the great medical
congresses. The consumptive, whether
his disease is in the throat or lungs,
must have rest at night, and be free
from the spasm Of dry and rskinR
cough in the morning. The diseased
parts want rest, healing and soothing

is the Democratic machinery that has
ruined the city. For years men have
gone to the polls like sheep and blind
" voted for anything that was put mp
as q Democrat, without considering
intelligence, character, ability. homes
ty or anything else. All required was
that a candidate be Democrat. A
majority of the best business men had
too many other more important mat
tiers. as they thought, to take up their
time, so whenever there was conven-
tion or a primary they staid at home
and let the ward heelers, buns and
professional politicians run things, I'M
til after 10! these many years. they
have awakened to the fact that for
years they have been victims of the
same sycophantic crowd, their money
has been wasted, they have few public
improvements, and must start over.
This is why a number of the best
Democrats in the city have united in
an independent ticket which, while it
will not be in the race, at least acts
as straw which shows which way the
wind blows.
The people need change, as Colo
mel Breckenridge says in the state as
well as city. and the gangs now in
office are what have to be changed. A
vote for Mr.. Jeff'J. Read, young
man who has the respect of every body
who knows him, who is intelligent,
gifted with more than the average
sound common sense, and will give
the people progressive, economical ad.
as mayor of Paducah,
will be Q vote to down the machine.
Don't waste your vote. Cast it for

Don't throw 1t away ON

THE APPROACHING CHANGES.

Colonel W. O. P. Breckenridge, of
the Lexington Herald, says a number
of things in recent issue which
should impress every thoughtful citi-
zen OF the state. and which may be
applied locally as we'll as to the state.
Colonel Breckinridge's paper is Demo
cratic, but 1t says what it thinks.
He says under the caption, Radical
Change Necessary"
"The people of Kentucky, though
divided into two great parties, are
homogeneous people: the rank and file
of the two great parties are precisely
alike in their training, impulses, hab-
its, character and necessities. 1t Is
all bosh to hold that the average of
the white members of either party
rank above the average of the white
members of the other party; and for
the purpose of this article we exclude
any reference to the colored people
In Lexington the Democratic citizens
are as good in every sense as their Re-
publ ,an fellow citizens, and no bet
tor. Whatever is wrongly done by
either party might have been done by
the other party IL the relative positions
had been changed.
A belief is expressed that the rank
and file Of all parties mean we'll, and
the leaders are to blame for the harm
brought on the state. or the Demo
cratic grafters in charge Of the Demo.
cratic state machinery he says;
cit may be true that the overthrow
of these leaders and the destruction OF
the present machinery are necessary
to redeem Kentucky. This has been
our Judgment during the past few
years, and we hope and believe that
the people of Kentncky are tired Of
the personal. bitter. lawless, violent
ami in some localities, dishonest poll
tics of the past few years. The ma
chinery of the Democratic party car
mot be changed until next year; the
primary prevented any change this
yesr. Next year q convention must
be held and. unless we are greatly mis-
taken. the party win be aroused to
the PRACTICAL importance of radical
oh .nge." . n
