One of the Effects.

Over $5G00o.G00 worth of raw silk
was imported in the last fiscal year, in
addition to S36.O0O.O0O worth of manu-
featured silk. Secretary Wilson is
seeking TO encourage the production of
raw silk in the United States. There is
no obstacle in the way, and it would
prove Il valuable industry to the col
ored people of the south, as it does not
require a great deal of time. 1t would,
if successful. enable vast millions to be
kept at home which are now sent
abroad to pay for both raw and manu-
featured silk. The raw silk imported
in the last fiscal year Is manufactured
into products worth over $125, 100000.
This will give some idea Of the bene-
fetal effects Of the tariff on that one
industry. Press

well be allowed TO remain as they are,
il is probable the extension of time
will be granted.

SOME GO Old ADVICE.

Up at Csdiz, Trigg county, Ken.
lucky, a paper is published by col
ored man, Rev. W. II. Ridley, and il
gives the colored people some good
advice. The paper was only recently
started, but if it keeps up in the the
manner in which it starts ont. 1t is
likely to have considerable influence
for good over the people of the colored
race.
In the last issue of the lnformer
thus counsels the negro:
1--WE are told that the Negroes best
white friends are in the South be-
cause they soy the South desires to see
him given opportunity to fit himself
for the stern duties of citizenship.
We are firm believer in the state
ment. In view of this truth, tho
negro himself should do everything
possible to increase that friendship,
making himself a substantial citizen,
educating his children, training them
to respect ard obey the laws Of the
state, making them follow some legiti-
mate pursuit when out of school,
never indulging them in idleness or
shiftlessness. But kept constantly
employed, always ready TO assist the
white man in every possible material
way. Working for the improvement
of the community, lining up at all
times with the best element of the
white people helping them to enforce
the law, discouraging idleness, stamp
ing the very life out of the stiff
collared, good-for- NOTHING dudes who
seem to think they were or are
special privileged class for adornment
of the town to hold up the street cor
ners and fiaunt their vileness in the
nostrils OF decent, self.Iespecting
people. Train your children in
Christian ethics.

The courts of Tennessee seem to
have a peculiar idea of business. A
Nashville tribunal in telephone case
yesterday decided that one telephone
company didn't have right to put its
competitor out Of business by reduc-
ing rates. If companies maintain the
same rates, they are called "mo-
nopoly." If on e reduces rates TO get
the business Of its competitor, il is
called unlawful The general opinion
is that one telephone company ought
20 be able 20 meet any rate its com
petitor makes, or take the conse-
quences. If .he consequences are, be-
ing put out of business or forced to
sell, that is its misfortune.

CREATION
A DISTINCT FEATURE OF THE
CARNIVAL WEEK OF
MAY 16.

Creation with its charming unique
ness, its undreamed of wealth of
beauty and delightful illusions will be
the talk of Paducah.
Starting from the entrance you
pass through scenes of beautiful
Yellowstone Park, the Alps, Of
Switzerland, the various wonder
scenes as visited by tourists through
Asia, Africa, Australia. Greece, Spain.
Italy, China, Portugal, Russia.
Japan, etc.
While the background is paintings
the foremost is real. and some OF ,he
people whom you see are living repre-
sentatives from the different lands,
while others are wax figures, and still
others are but paintings. II is diff
cult to tell where art leaves OF and
nature begins, for instance the Yose-
mite Valley in the California scene is
part real and part painted, and SO il is
for the entire length OF the Mammoth
Cave"
With each group who visit Creation
there is q guide who explains all
points of interest. ana answers the
many questions that curiosity
prompts.
In addition 10 the illusions, hero
Mr.. l. Montgomery Thomas, the
celebrated lecturer, takes up tho evolu-
tion of man. beginning with tho pre-
historical man, and following his de-
velopmont down TO tbs present day,
step by step and Of the end Of the
trip through time and the grottos Mr.
Thomas shows what the present man
will develop into 1000 years hence, a
subject on which most soieptists have
devoted much thought. Here and
there you will sec the gates Of the
principal cities with typical residents
in smart costumes.
For instance, at the gates OF Toxic,
seated at small tea tables. you see "A
Japanese cavalier being entertained
By a merry group Of Seishos (Japauese
tea girls with their brilliant and
fascinating manners.
Here you see what is said to be

The platform moves, the gates Of
the city move. while you alone re.
main stationary seated in nina
ture battleship. There isn't dull
moment from the time the visitors
enters. One pleasant surprise fol
lows another in artistic sequence, so
that with increasing interest you
pass from scene TO scene feeling
each time that pleasurable sensation
that comes from having ones better
self uplitted by series of climaxes
hitherto considered impossible, until
you at last sit enrsptuted by the
highest conception of the scene.
AS the cosnic forces are uufolded
before you aud animated nature
takes its several forms there silently
aud insidiously comes over you that
hallowed feeling which one expeIien-
ces only when within the presence Of
something all but divine
The supreme illusion is consumma.-
ed, you pass out from the Cieation
with the loftiest admiration for p.
j. Mundy, the man who spent $50, 900
in erecting the greatest novelty ever
seen with a carnival.

Sunday was the sixth anniversary
of the battle of Manila, and Admiral
Dewey recognized it by displaying in
front of his residence in Washington
the huge flag purchased by popular
subscription and presented to him in
1899. There have been a good many
naval "goings on" since then, but
nothing like Dewey did.

The ordinance passed by the council
last night imposing a $40 fine on
every one who sweeps trash or dirt
onto the streets or sidewalks, is good
one, and should be hurried through.
There is nothing more provincial, dis
gushing or injurious than the daily
practice in Paducah of sweeping trash
and filth from stores across the side
walks onto the brick streets. The
germ laden dust has to be bresthed by
hundreds of passing people, who are
getting heartily tired Of it.

places the destroyer Lawrence should
stop on its trip mp the river. 1t is
certain that while the residents might
have found nothing new in mere
gunboat. the young Jack Tars aboard
would have found many new, edifyiug
and inspiring things in Smithland had
they been allowed TO stop of few
hours and take a car through the city.
Even a trolley ride would have taught
them that all the great sights to be
seen, modern or historical. new or
antique, are not solely in the large
cities or the commonplace foreign
countries and tropical isles they have
visited in their journey around the
world. By all means the gun boat
should stop at Smithland next time.
