White Cellar Liners Gone.

The Avalon which-has been running
at odd times for the past few months
between Cincinnati and Memphis
has gone up for her last time in that
trade. She goes to the Tennessee river
for this winter. This will leave the
Ohio open to the Lee line of Memphis,
who, it is claimed, will soon put a line
of good boats In the trade. The White
Collar line of steamers have one by one
disappeared and the company is not
in the best shape in the world and Will
doubtless quit the Memphis and Gin
cinnati trade altogether. We can
remember some fine boats she had in
this trade such as the John X. Speed,
DeSoto, Ohio, Buckeye State, State of
Missouri, City of Pittsburg, Hudson,
Bonanza, Sunshine. State of Kansas.
They are most all destroyed.

chamberIain,s c ugh Remedy.

No one who is acquainted with its
good qualities can be surprised at the
great popularity Of Chamberla s
Cough Remedy. 1t not only cures colds
and grip effectually and permanently,
but prevents these diseases from result
ing in pneumonia. 1t is also a certain
cure for Group. Whooping cough is
not dangerous when this remedy il
given. 1t contains no.opium or other
harmful substance and may be given
as confidently to a baby as to an adult
1t is also pleasant to take. When all of
these facts are taken into consideration
II is not surprising that people in for
eign lands, as well as at home, esteem
this remedy very highly and very few
are willing to take any other after
having ,once used it For sale by

Judge r. g. Kinkead, of Louisville,
spoke TO the voters of Cloverport last
Thursday afternoon in II. A. OelZe 5
storeroom, in interest of the Republi-
can State ticket 1t was a fair sized
audience that greeted him and was
composed of about an equal number OF
Democrats and Republicans Judge
Kinkead spoke in very forceful man.
ner and his remarks elected much
enthusiasm His stories and negro an
ecdotes to illustrate his points were
exceedingly well told and caused much
laughter. He did not use abusive
language and when he had finished
his speech was favorably comm ented
on by Democrats as well as Republi
cans
Judge Kinkead arrived on the 10 10
morning train from Louisville. He was
met at the depot by number of local
Republicans and entertained during his
stay in the city by Capt j. H. Row
land. At 30 Judge KinKead was in
troduced by Copt Rowland and began
speaking He spoke nearly two hours.
Judge Kinkead opened his speech by
saying that he was not speaking as a
politician and wouldn't take any State
office that might be offered to him.
He then referred to Col Harry Weis-
singer in a pleasant and humorous
way and that he would speak in this
city Saturday. He said that you
would have to catch Harry between
breakfast and supper to tell which
way he was going to vote and that no
one in Louisville fakes Harry Weis-
singer seriously but Harry himself
He then devoted several minutes
telling what Democratic greed for
flee had done for and in the State of
Kentucky. Among other thugs he
said that it had brought Kentucky to
her knees, determined that there
should be no majority to rule in the
State, and had formed one of the most
neinous conspiracies against human
life aud liberty ever conceived in the
human mind. TO hang innocent men,

conditions in Kentucky were caused by

by the Republicans, as the Demo

them from one end OF the State to the
other. One Goebel dead, he said, has
been worth more to the Democratic
party than /, 900 Goebels alive.
Col Belknap. Judge Kinkeao said,
ne has known since childhood and if
ever he has had an evil wish he dioes
not know it, What Gov Beckham fut-
IRE record would be he did not know,
but said that he knew Col. Belknap
would not pardon gamblers and men
who would Stay young girls fleeing
for the defense of their honor.
Judge Kinkead spent sometime re-
viewing the trials of Caleb Powers.
He said that he was one of Powers
COUNSEL in all the trials but the last
one and knew whereof he spoke. Ten
days after he had been made Caleb
Powers counsel he learned that Henry
E. Youtsey, alone fired the shot that
killed Goebel. Youtsey told him this
in a confidential conversation, and yet
Democratic greed for Office prompts
Democratic speakers TO say that the
Republican party is responsible for
killing Goebel when they know that
Youtsey killed him.
In Powers first trial, in 1900, ne
said, Judge Cantrill excused the
men he did not want out of 100 that
had been summoned to serve on the
jury. In this manner he slfted 100 men
to suit his own purposes In the second
trial in 1901, Cantrill appointed three
of the most rabid Goebelites in Scott
county to put the names in the box.
Out of 200 names drawn from the
wheel there were 1875 Democrats. Out
of these only SIX men were secured rs
iurymen andCantrill sent the sheriff of
Scott county over into BOURBON county
The sheriff passed Republicans on the
road and the homes of Republicans
and summoned 1863 men, 16l of whom
were followers of Goebel In the last
trial the jury WAS solid Democratic.
In concluding his remarks about Pow
ers' trials Judge Kinkead SAID, There
never has been and never will be
Repu olican set on the Powers case
under Democratic rule unless they see
ii It to put hun there.
IF there is one pardon that will
damn Beckham, said Judge Kinkead
lit is the pardon Of Ed. Alvey, the
Louisville gambler who has contrib
uted thousands of dollars to the Demo
cratic Campaign Committee. At )
o clock in the afternoon he was con-
victed and at 6 o clock certain Demo
cratic officials from Louisville went to
Frankfort carrying reasons with them
why Alvey should be pardoned. That
same evening Alvey met certain Dem
ocratic officials and said if the pardon
didn' come be would tell it all The
pardon came next morning
Alvey's pardon, Judge Kinkead said,
was one for political purposes. He
then spoke briefl5 of the heinous
crimes Of Josiah Raleigh and the
murderer of Mrs. Mechanism, both of
whom Beckham pardoned although
Gov. Brown and Gov. Bradley both re-
fused to exercise this prerogative in
the formers behalf.
In an eloquent way Judge Kinkead

THE GOVT RNOR'S MESSAGE.

Gov. Jefferson Davis delivered
his message to the Legislature il
joint session Thursday. The
message is quite a lengthy doe
ument and deals with many mat
tiers now of interest to the people
of Arkansas. Below is given
the most important points of the
message:
A thorough remodeling and
revision of the law regulating the
penitentiary system is called for.
The Legislature is urged to
carefully investigate the convict
farm transaction, examine the
farm and act as it sees fit after
such examination. The governor
claims the price paid for the farm
is exorbitant.
A strong plea is made for the
building of an annex to the state
insane asylum to accommodate
five hundred more patients.
The deaf-mute and blind schools
are warmly commended.
The legislature is asked to ap-
propriate money to repay, with s
per cent interest, the parties from
whom ne borrowed funds for the
relief of the drouth sufferers in
North Arkansas last year. The
sum borrowed amounted to over
$1,000.
The passage of the King anti
trust bill is earnestly desired.
A plea is made for a reform
school for juvenile offenders OF
the law.
An additional appropriation of
$4,000 to make dn exhibit at the
st. Louis Worlds Fair is recon-
mended.
The message declares state in
spectors of coal oil and beer are
needed, both to insure the purity
of the articles and to raise reve-
nue..
1t is recommended that a new
capitol building be built on the
old site; or rather it is suggested
that the old building be remod-
eled.
The general assembly is urged
to be as brief in its session as a
conscientious discharge of duty
will allow.
