THE LAST ACT.

4 John X. Hendrick has resigned.
- Beckham is without opposition and the
"a ,warmest campaign in the history Of
10, Kentucky Democracy has become as
a. mild and gentle as the notes OF a COO
- ing dove. But the question now agi-
~ tating the friends of the late candi-
date principle only is, What made
:. him do il? Whatever the answer may
be that is put out for public oonsump-
!, tion, the fact remains that this re.
J.. doubtable Henry of Navarro. who was
a. supposed to be tearing things wide
m open from Mills Point to the Breaks of
~, the Sandy has committed political
., suicide without the peradventure Of a
doubt, and will be buried without
benefit of clergy.
However plain the writing on the
wall may have appeared to Mr.. Hen
drick, however strongly entrenched he
may have found the enemy's forces to
have been, he owed it to himself and
to his friends to have fought to the
finish. This was supposed to be fight
for principle; the friends of Mr.. Hen
drick believed that nothing but the
humiliation Of the machine would
save Kentucky Democracy. Mr.. Hen
drick posed as the arch-enemy of poll
: teal corruption, and his election was
supposed to be absolutely necessary to
. effect the cleaning out of the gang of
political cutthroats now holding forth
at Frankfort. At least this Is what
we inferred from reading the patriotic
utterances and vitriolic paragraphs OF
his friends and supporters. In fact
the bridges had been burned, and the
way Beckhsm's record was being
shown up by this reform candidate
and his friends was causing the direst
CONSERVATION to the machine.
But all is lovely now. The fifteen
day limit is passed. Breckenridge is
out. EAfth eP WV
and Beckham and the machine are
once more the unchallenged leaders OF
the great unteyifed and the ideal ex-
ponents of Kentucky Democracy as it
actually is.
To Republicans the course OF Mr.
Hendrick Is ilexplicable. Fer years
the Republican party has fought for
principle. and, except in few in
stances, with no hope Of success. We
have thought, however. that an hon
orable though overwhelming defeat
was preferable any time to disgrace
full retreat in the face Of the foe.
Mr.. Heudrick should have finished
this campaign even il he knew ht
were doomed to defeat His friendl
would have been true to him, and
defeat fighting for the right would
have been more honorable than al
election at the hands OF corrupt aut
INSCRIPTIONS machine.

HIS Ruling Passion.

When Verlaine died, he left his friend
Bibilapuree as a legacy to those who
had cared for him. Bib was inoffen-
sive; there was tradition that years
ago he had worked. but the man lived
not who had seen him with pen in
hand. Yet Bib was looked after for
the dead poets sake. Painters, sculp
tors, journalists, gave him house room
in turn, fed him and clothed him, and
Bibi was grateful. But one little vice
of his was incurable-he invariably
walked off with his hosts umbrella.
This persistent observation-disclosures at
last produced GOODNESS, and his
friends dropped off, and Bib expe-
rienced the cold shoulder Of neglect.
One day ne was discovered almost
starving in an empty house, and Yer
lanes friends reproached themselves
for their unkindness to the poor old
man. A subscription was raised for
his benefit, and the money handed to
him at q banquet at which the twenty
seven subscribers were present. Bibfs
health was drunk with enthusiasm;
he rose 10 reply. but emotion so over
came him that he sought permission to
retire. In his retirement he was ac-
companied by twenty-seven umbrellas.
