Louisville, Ky. June Gin lengthy ed
itorial in the Courier-Journal tomorrow
Henry Watterson will discuss presidential
possibilities. giving considerable attention
to Circuit Attorney Folk of st. Louis. The
opening paragraphs of the editorial are de-
voted to reply to a recent summary OF
the outlook in Harpers Weekly.
After some more discussion of Grover
Cleveland, Mr.. Waterson will say: The lat
est dark horse to edge his way. as it were
into the paddock has still a year before
him to make a record.
Neither Mr. Tilden nor Mr.. Cleveland
had much more. If Joseph w. Folk of st.
Louis be nominated and elected by the Dem
ocrats to the Governorship of Missouri, he
will occupy very much the position occupied
by Mr.. Tilden in 1876.
But in the prevailing chaos it is concev-
able that he may come to be in the running
even without u nomination and election as
Governor of Missouri. Mr.. Bryan had no
such lead or backing in 1885,
After quoting from The Republic three
paragraphs. saying that politicians are fig
uring on Folks future, Mr.. Watterson con-
tinues:
Between the lines there is some sug-
gestive reading here. No one can ever pre-
dict just what n body of discredited politi-
clans will do when scared into the need of
doing something which will look like doing
their duty.
THE career of Mr.. Folk has thus far been
exceptional and bears the earmarks of hav-
ing future before it. There seems to have
been a meaning, if not kind of destiny, in
his election to the circuit attorneyship.

three lines of railroad this city has twenty
four passenger trains every day, but 1t has

1t is not likely that the Chicago and AL

Many of them are living in the second
story of their houses, and one man was
found to-day living in corn pen. When
the water began to surround him he saw it
was impossible to save his corn and hogs,
so he got his hogs on top of the corn in the
crib and crawled up to stay with them.
By personal attention he hopes to turn
corn that otherwise would have been ruined
into fat aogs, This city is caring for all the
