The Democrats have always insist
ed on taking politics into the board of
education in Paducah. For years
nearly every member Of the board has
been a Democrat, and the Democrats
dispensed the good jobs to Democrats
or the friends and relatives of Demo
Gratis, and gave to DeToc all the
work there was to do for the educa-
tional department of Psducsh. Yet
the Democrats claim that the Repub-
licans introduce politics into the board
of ed ucation. because the Republi-
cans sometimes see fit to critcise the
official acts of the board. Repu bill
cans of Paducsh recently, owing 20
claims of Democrats that they want
to keep the board of education free
from politics, proposed that each
party nominate but half ticket for
the board, insuring the election of six
Republicans and six Democratic trus-
tees. This would virtually clinch che
pom political feature of the board the
Democrats professed to desire, but
they wouldn't agree to it. Although
protesting tina. they want to keep the
board free from politics, they refuse
to agree to six men of some other
party or to do anything else to obtain
it, and say they must have whole hog
or none. 1t looks, however, as if it
will be none this time.

Condition Of the Crops.

The Weather Bureau Tuesday issued
the following weekly summary of crop
conditions:
On the whole the corn crop has
made favorable progress, especially over
the central and western portions of the
corn belt, the most decided advance be-
ing reported from Nebraska and Kansas
In the upper Ohio Valley corn is suffer-
ing seriously for rain, which is also need
in portions of the Illinois and Missouri,
and much of the late crop in Iowa will
suffer unless rain falls soon. The reports
indicate that early corn will be safe from
frost by September Is to October 1, and
late corn from October to Is. Dates
by which it is estimated the crop in the
principal corn states will be safe from
frosts are given in the accompanying
state summaries.)
Considerable spring wheat remains to
be cut in North Dakota, but harvesting
is practically over elsewhere in the spring
wheat region, and thrashing is in pro-
gress In Southern Minnesota much
grain in shock is damp. In South Dakota,
Nebraska and Kansas the weather has
been highly favorable for stacking and
thrashing. Harvesting is nearly finished
in Oregon and advancing rapidly in
Washington, the grain being of superior
quality.
The condition of tobacco in Tennessee
is exceptionally favorable, and fair crop
is promised in Kentucky, where an i'm
provement is indicated. A fair to good
crop is being cut in Maryland and Vir-
GINA. In Pennsylvania, though back
ward, tobacco has made fair PROCESS, but
materially lessened its condition in
Ohio.
Fall blowing progressed under favor
able conditions except in the Ohio Valley
and central portions of the Mississippi
Valley where the soil is too dry.

Bank Barn Burned.

A large bank barn on the farm of Mrs.
county, was destroyed with its contents
by fire Tuesday morning about o'clock.
The origin of the fire is unknown, but it
is believed that it was caused by spontan-
eous combustion in the new mown hay.
This hay, about 40 tons, was recently put
in the barn, and together with nearly all
of Mrs. Binger's farming implements, con
sisting of harness, plows, buggy, wagons,
reaper, binder, mower and other utensils
made blaze which was seen for miles.
The barn was worth about $4,000 and was
partially insured. There was no insur-
ance on the implements which, together
with the hay, were worth about $4,000.

Attempt to Wreck a Train.

Train No. 46 of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, leaving Washington at 11.30
o'clock Saturday night, was wrecked at
Contee, about two miles from Laurel,
throwing the engine off the track, but do
ing no other damage.
No. 46 is daily express train coming
from Chicago and reaches Baltimore at
1926 a. m.
1t is supposed the wrecke:s did it for
booty, and had they piled few more
crossties on the track the whole train
would have been wrecked, but there were
only enough ties to throw the engine
off.
The train crew telegraphed to Wash
ington for help, and special tain was
sent out bearing several detectives, who
began search for the wreckers. At 3.15
a. m. they found three young men Sleep
ing on the ground not far from where the
accident happened. They we're arrested
and tried Sunday afternoon in Laurel by
Justice Neal who committed them to Jail
to await an investigation. They gave
their names as NJ. Gregray, aged 20; E.
Eroberdi, age 10, and Gallo Bogioli, aged
81 and claim Washington as their home.
They said they left Washington at 1920
p. m. Saturday night, all on wheels, and
had intended to ride to Baltimore to visit
their parents and relatives, claimed to be
living at 500 President street and 31s
President street. Gregray was the only
one that could speak English. He stated
they were innocent of the charge and
would telegraph their relatives in Balti-
more Sunday afternoon for help. He
stated they had intended to ride to Balti-
more -oa their wheels to spend Sunday
with their parents, and on account of leav-
ing Washington 50 late were compelled
to remain over at Contee to rest for the
night, but had hardly got asleep before
they were awakened by detectives, who
took them in charge. One of the detec-
tives in jumping off the train while it was
going fell and cut his head very severely
Sunday evening the three young men
we're released after paying S. for tres
passing. It was proved that they were
inn ocent of the train wrecking. 1t was
thought they paid pretty steep price fol
the privilege of sleeping on the ground.
