pose of ofFording protection to the in

no matter whether it be the drifting of
the snow, the downpour of rain, the in

or the whirl of the wind. The duty of
every person upon entering a store or

the door behind him. He should have
some consideration for the welfare of

A GOOD MOVEMENT.

The step taken by the Civil war team.
sters in efrecting an organization is along
the right line. Concerted effort to pro.
mote the interests of its members is more
likely to prove beneficial than individual
effort, and the proposition advanced that
they should be pensioned by the govern
ment for services rendered in the war is
reasonable. They are in large meas.
ure on the plain of the ex-solder who
receives a pension. They endured all
the hardships of war and were exposed
10 many of its dangers, and there should
be reward coming to them, just as there
is to the ex,soldier. 1t is believed that
the organization will work out benefits
to its members and that in the end it
will be realized that wisdom was used
when they banded themselves together to
promote their interests.

THE POWERS VERDICT.

Three years of political persecution
have passed for Caleb Powers, and
Saturday, the last time he was con-
victed, he was sentenced to hang.
There may be some people who believe
the sentence is just and that the trial
of the case at this time and the YER
dict, have aided the Democrats in the
approaching election, but the effect
will be, from indications, the opposite.
When it is remembered that Youtsey,
the convict, who says,he was in a con-
spirscy to kill Senator Goebel, whose
statements are denied by every one else,
and who probably fred the shot if any
Of those accused did it, received only
life sentence. and that Caleb Powers
was in Louisville at the time and
couldn't have fired the shot or been
present, the justice of the Powers
sentence will hardly appeal to fair
minded man. Only a short time ago,
two men-Jett and White-were tried
in this state for murder. One Of them
abetted by the other shot his victim
from behind and eye witnesses swore
TO the fact, and yet these two men re-
ceived only life sentences. Caleb Pow.
ers, who was not within so miles OF
the scene Of the Goebel murder, Is given
a death sentence by jury composed
Of Goebel Democrats, selected from a
panel summoned by Goebel man,
and instructed by . Democratic judge.
II there is any one who capnot see
through this political conspiracy. and
who believes for q moment that poll
tics has not accomplished the convic-
tion Of Caleb Powers not once, but
three times, IL il because he is Q very
unreasonable man.
Politics has prosecuted Celeb Pow
ers and politics, perjury and prejudice,
not evidence. have convicted him. If
he is hanged 1t will be by politics, and
the responsibility will be ON the DEM
ocratio party Of Kentucky.

followed IN other innings with three

Like every other man Of sense, Demo.
crat as well as Republican, the presi-
dent knows that his party needs no
help firm the south In 1904 to enable
it to carry the country.
Anti-imperialism was never strong
in the south. II the question Of the
retention of the Philippines could be
voted on next year without any en-.
tangling alliances with prejudice or
tradition or connection with other
issues, the Republicans would carry
four out of every five Of the ex.slave
states. The south was the original
expansi onist quarter Of the country,
and il holds to that ideal through all
sorts Of changes in the political and
social situation. Possibly the selec-
tion of Wright may add few thou
sands to the vote which the president
will receive next year in the states be-.
low the Potomac and the Ohio, but
these votes will not be needed. More
over, the question of Imperialism.

THE PRESIDENTS POLICY.

President Roosevelt has repeatedly,
since he became president, demon
stated to the people his ability to
steer the ship Of state His redoubt-
able courage to do what he believes il
right and to the best interest of |
the greatest number 10 too we'll known
20 justify attentions being called to
it at this late day, but IL is certainly
not smiss to remark that President
Roosevelt is making more friends
every day that he lives, and friends
among men Of all politics, who recog-
nize his ability, fairness and deisre to
work in the interest of his country.
When it was announced . few days
ago that he had appointed Gen. Luke
e. Wright. of Memphis, governor gen.
eral Of the Philippines to succeed
Judge Taft, an Indiana Congressman
said:
"Here is prominent Democrat and
confederate taking up the work be-
gun in the Philippines under MoKin-
ley and continued under Roosevelt
This should be guarantee to Wright's
own party that our policy in the
islands is correct, and ought to still
the clamor against it IN the next cam
paign."
COMMENTING on the affair, the st.
Louis Globe Democrat truthful,y says !;
ION its political side this selection
of Wright for head of the civil govern
ment in che Philippines is wise. 1t
will help to head off some of the anti
imperinlistic howls against the admin.
~istration for retaining the islands.
Bot the chief reason which led to the
SELECTION of Gen. Wright for the post
was his experience and fitness. He
has served in the islands as vice gov
