WARM TIME COMING
Former Mayor Lang Says He
Will "Roost Over Records
He Has q Number of Debts of Ingrati-
tude to Pay on This Year.

Former Mayor James NJ. Lang
stated this morning in regard to the
pressure that is being brought to bear
on him to run for the Democratic nom
ination for mayor. that he will be con-
tent to work with Q free hand for
somebody else this time.
"Instead of trying to make race Of
any kind" he said, ~ shall roost
over the records this year and make it
interesting enough for somebody else
from the outside.

salaries that led them to-" he de-
clsred. land they have repaid me in q

them have even spent my money to
assist in various ways. and some Of
them are the very ones who have
knocked me the hardest. l shall pay

want q free hand to do 1t with"
This is very significant. II has
long been known what q breach has
sprung mp between Mayor Yeiser and
former Mayor Lang since the former
took charge Of the Office. Mayor Lang
virtually secured the election Of May
OF Yeiser, and threw all his strength
to him in the primary 81 which May
or Yeiser was nominated. DR.. Lang's
friends claim that he has since been
grossly mistreated by an attempt to
saddle the extravaganza, slothfulness
and lack of enterprise Of the present
onto the Lang admin
istration by claiming they are a neces-
ssry consequence Of former Mayor
Lang's administration. The indica-
tions are that there will be hot time
when the city campaign opens up
among the Democrats. Mayor Lang
is one Of those scrappers who, when
he let's up, usually finds that the 9TH
er fellow realizes something has hap
pened. '-f~'

You can get most any kind Of po-
litical opinion you want nowadays,
from those that are furnished gratis,
to those that are made to order, like
Judge Pryor's, and have to be turned
wrong side out before you have them

reporter day or two ago that while
he was for Col Hendrick, with whom
he served in the legislature, if Gov.
Beckham runs the race out Judge
Breckenridge will De the nominee of
the party. This is the first time we
ever heard Judge Breckenridge accused
Of having any show. If he got the

The argument that the people in one
part of the city ought not be taxed to
improve another part of the city be-
cause they may not care or be in a po-
sition to claim the benefits of such an
improvements as foolish as the argu-
ment that a man ought not be taxed
for supporting tine schools because he
has no children to go to school. II
this principle of municipal government
were carried out there would be few
improvements IN city. Every man
would pay only for what he needed
and make every other man do the
same. Those who use wagons or bug.
gies would have to build the streets
and those who walk would have to
build the sidewalks. while the steam
boat man would take skiff and be re-
lieved from paying for either. The
man whose children have all grown up
would be relieved from paying the 35
cents for schools. and the man who
hasn't got anything to steal or spends
little of his time at home won Id be
relieved from paying the per cent of
his ia xes necessary to raise money for
police protection. This would be Just
as reasonable, however. as the srgu.
ment that people who live in the out
skirts should not DO taxed to improve
the business portion OF the city. II
the people down town hadn't been
taxed to improve the outskirts people
of the latter would probably still be
living in the woods.

THERE is NO DEATH.
by Lord Lytton.
There is no death the stars go down
To rise upon some fairer shore;
And bright in heavens jewell'd crown
They shine forevermore.
There is no DEATH the dust we tread
Doth change beneath the summer
shower
To golden grain or mellow fruit,
Or rainbow tinted flower.
The granite rocks disorgauize
To feed the hungry moss they bear
The forest trees drink daily life
From out the viewless air.
There Is no DEATH the leaves may fall,
The flowers may fade and pass away ;
They only wait thro' wintry hours
The coming Of the May.
There is no DEATH an Angel form
Walks DER the earth with silent
tread:
He bears our best lov'd ones away
And then we call them dead"
He leaves our hearts all desolate;
He plucks our fairest. sweetest
flowers;
into bliss, they now
Adorn immortal bowers.
For where he sees a smile too bright.
Or heart toe pure for faint or vice,
He bears il 10 that world Of light,
To dwell in Paradise.
The bird-like voice whose joyous tones
Made glad the scene OF sin and strife
Sings now the everlasting song
Amid the "Tree OF Life"
Though pass'd beyond our tear-dim'd
sight.
IT'S but larger life TO gain;
We feel their presence oft the same,
Except in sin and pain.
And ever near US. though unseen,
The dear immortal spirits tread;
For all the boundless universe
Is life-there Is no dead.

A day of reckoning is conf ng in
Kentucky for the Republicans who
have been so mercilessly maiigned for
the past several years by the Goebel
crowd. The bandit gang is beginning
to fall out, and when grafters of that
class become disrupted they usually
vent their feelings by exposing one
another's meanness. Some Of these
Democrats are now beginning to do it.
A number Of those who are now fight
ing Gov. Beckham and the machine
tooth and toe nail were in league with
the gang year or two ago, but be-
cause they were kicked out or for var.
ious other reasons, they are now drift
ing another way. They admit pretty
freely that the state Of Kentucky was
stolen from the Republicans by the
Goebelites, and that there never was,
and the Democratic leaders never real
~ boAAtNCa Naot but
purchased and perjured evidence
against the Republicans charged with
the murder of Senator Goebel. They
are beginning to hint what the Repub-
licsns have always known and declar-
ed, that the whole gang was in a sort
of informal conspiracy to down the
rapidly growing Republican party in
Kentucky by fair means or foul, and
now that the fruits of their despicable
work are. in sight they have begun
fighting one another over the spoils.
Some of them are likely to get unusu-
ally tore some of these days and startle
the entire country with revelations
concerning the internal and internal
workings of this corrupt political ma
chine.

No person should be excused from

Continuing, Mr.. Knox says:
Legislation to correct trust abuses
should be developed with great care.

He recommends legislation to hurry

tol, frankly stated that the medical
board had no right,to test any doctor
qualifications, and adds a per cent OF
his bcok-learning protection to aid

and monopoly ring who are binding
lhe people. DR.. Whitford's state
ment is that one half of the worlds
Insanity is due to the use OF drugs
such as mercury and arsenic by ,he
physicians of fifty years ago. If that
is true, what aresthe doctors ofl9O2

many thousands are each year hasten

they don't tell the people that to pro-
tect themselves from the laws of the
state they formed the medical board

people-and defy them to prove to
the contrary. For the past thirty

A MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.

vented are called, to have his legs
curled over the axle of the conoy
wheels under the pilot and be car
ried along for 100 feet. and yet to
escape without q broken bone, has
been the experience Of Louis Huysler,
an electrician. of Mount Vernon.
Huysler was found with his legs
curled around the axle OF the Coney
wheels. His head was jammea back
under the pilot itself. He was in 2
position that made it impossible to
extricate him without lifting the
locomotive from the rails. When he
was finally removed Huysler's lef:
knee was found to be dislocated, the
right knee bruised and this leg cut.
He also had some cuts on the face
and body. but not bone was broken.
