IL seems to rs that newspaper

principle enough to acknowledge a
mistake when it made one. IL is
claimed, and not denied so Tar as we

10 DEMOCRATS.

Needless TO say. it would be impair.
donable presumption for The Sun to
claim to know as much law, or as
much on any subject, as our omnis-
cient contemporary up the street, but
The Sun ventures the opinion just
the same that 1t knows how Republ-
cans regard the presen. Kentucky
election law, and that they do not
consider it fair or satisfactory, an
opinion shared by many Of the fair
minded Democrats of the state.
IL is conceded that the Democrats
regard the present election law. as
fair and satisfactory, We freely gran {
them that much. Many of them also
considered the Goebel law fair. Some
Of the Democrats-the party leaders
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. to Mr.. Hen
drick, consider it fair, evidently, to
rob one another, and under the pre-
tense of holding fair primary cleo
tion to determine the choice Of a ma
jority of the party, deem it perfectly
legitimate to trick somebody out of
what is rightfully his. It is unnecesss-
~ to state what such men consider fair
towards the Republicans.
Il may be true that the Democrats
regard 1t as fair and right to take false
hood and Misrepresentation as the bs-
sis for extended comment on honors-
BILE citizens, and when the injustice is
shown up to reiterate the misrepresen-
tation or ignore the matter entirely.
This is probably only another Demo-
cratic idea Of fairness, but the point
here is that the Republieans do not
regard the election law as fair and
just, and do not regard any man who
thinks it fair and Just a friend of
fairness and justice. The Republ.
cans may be wrong, but that il their
opinion just the same.
The Louisville Herald. a Republi-
can paper, a few days ago declared
that there had not been . fair count
since the Goebel law was passed in
This represents the Repub-
lican opinion of the election law. There
is nothing to be gained in quibbling
over points, real or imaginary, in the |
law, and nothing to be protited |
by parading through several columns
Of space an imaginary knowledge of
the law and how fair it is. The Goe-
bel papers used to make the same kind |
Of exhibition with the Goebel law, and |
pretended to think that it was abso-
lutely preposterous TO claim that the
4oebel law was unfair. Yet they saw
the handwriting on the wall, and fear
ing that they would be engulfed in a
public sentiment that threatened to
them, made few changes
n the law, and now try to claim
hat the amendment is fair.

Writing in the December Atlantic
Ellen Duvall says interesting things
about the heroes of women novelists.
Here are some of her views:
Women have been accused of writ
ing with one eye on the paper and
the other on some individual. But if
this be true. that individual is sell
dom flesh and blood reality, and still
schooner some Frankenstein of eX
perimental horror. 1t is rather a low
ely evocation Of the fancy. a being
ensyyed and sainted. For it is a
psychological truth that while person
al preference and experience widely
differ, yet there is among women,s
heroes. curious typical likeness. So
that whether women married or sing
la, bond or free; whether their ex-
perience OF life be large or limited;
whether they be of great talents or
none; whether they aim to depict men
do luCy al z Va AA1CA o~o SASS NOoAo inv
men to be-this same general resem
blance among womens heroes holds
good. The plentiful lack of wit and
humor in the heroes of our present
women writer's is marked character
istic-to be conveniently Irish-of
these sober-minded gentlemen. Is it
because, as a rule, women are essen
TALLY non.humorous? OF seeing that
wit and humor are the eyes of wis
dom, and tnat to be witty of love is
well-nigh impossible, do women, by
an unerring instinct, refrain from CIV
ing to their heroes what would add
to their charms as men but would de-
tract from their power as lovers?
This brings us to another trait COM
mon to these worthless. Who knows
moth that mans best loving falls far
short of woman's dreams of love?
Yet there are no women writer's from
least to greatest, whose heroes in
respect to love and constancy are
not unconquerable. So, whatever else
women's heroes may have, or may
lack. they are all determined lovers

Though only now steps are being
tardily taken by his countrymen to
erect a monument to Gen. Nicholson,
that hero Of the Indian mutiny is as
sured of remembrance outlasting that
which any bronze or marble can give,
for he has been enshrined in TIE

ever attained a higher ideal Of an
Englishman than Brigadicr General
John Nicholson, and to the pc PIE Of
India he was the model Of man and
a soldier. Their devotion to him in
his life passed into alteration on his
death. AS Nikal Seyn he is actually
worshiped in son.e villages of the

noble life are sung to this day. "Ahi!

The Genesis Of Iazarre.

Mrs. Chatherwood wrote "Lazarrea
after years of preparation. When she
was II years of age she read a story
entitled Have We Dauphin?" The
author attempted to shrow that the
eldest son of Louis XVI, did not die
in the temple, the victim of his
country's revolution but was Brought
to America. Here he was given into
keeping Of Thomas Williams, a half
breed Indian who lived with his tribe
near Lake George. The boy was
named Eleazer Villa ms but the Ind
ians called him Lazarrc. The roment-
ic story made deep impression on
her girlish mind. The little prince
became her prince Charming, her
fairy play fellow. She grew to know
him. she talked of him and to him.
Several years after the appearance of
this story Mrs CatherWood spent a
summer in northwestern New York.
There she found many traces of the
lost Dauphin, and it was there that
the difnite idea of writing d story
around this legend. or fact, as she
believed t to be. first came to her.
Several years ago in Wisconsin, Mrs.
Catherwood called on two women. who
displayed some old books. saying in
tone of great reverence, They be-
longed to the Dauphin." The memory
of her Prince Charming rushed tack
upon her. She asked many questions
and learned that there We're women

women there who possessed costly
articles of bric-a brac that had been
sent him from France. The site of a
cabin, once his. was pointed out to
her. 1t overooks the Fox river The
knowledge of all these things rekindl-

write story of the little prince
