TEXT BOOK
is ISSUED

The Republican campaign textbook
of 1904 is just about to be issued. A
synopsis of the book prepared by the
Republican campaign committee, says
the four great facts which justified
the Republican party in asking the
support of the public in 1900 were:
"First-That its pledges of 1896 had
been redeemed.
"Second-That prosperity had come
as a result.
"Third-That developments since
1896 had shown the fallacy of the prin-
ciples upon which the Democracy
then appealed for public support.
"Fourth-The condition which had
come to other parts of the world and
their people as result of promises
fulfilled by the Republican party in
the United States"
The book then goes on to say that
these assertions made in the text
book of 1900 nave been fully justified
by the added experiences of another
four years. The pledges of 1896 and
those made in 1900 have been re.
deemed The protective tariff has
beeen restored the gold standard
made permanent Cuba freed and Civ
en- independence; the Panama canal
assured under the sole ownership and
control of the United States; a depart
ment of commerce and labor estab
lished; rural free delivery given to
millions of the agricultural commun.
ity; the laws for the proper regula.
tion of trusts and great corporations
strengthened and enforced; prosperity
established; commerce developed;
labor paid and given ample employ
ment and reward; intelligence, pros.
perity and good government estab-
lished in distant Islands and thee flag
of the United States made the emblem
of honor in every part of the world
All of these great accomplishments
it is pointed out; have been the work
of the Republican party. In each OF
them it has met the discouragement
the opposition and the hostility of the
Democracy. 1t is upon this additional
evidence of the past four years, evi-
dence that the Republican party is
the party of progress and the Demo
cracy the party of lnaction, retard'
ment, fault-fnding, that the party
again confidently appeals for public
support in the Presidential elections
of 1904.
Every feature of the prospective
is considered with fairness,
and all available information bearing
upon the subjects is presented. The
claim that the protective tariff in
creases prices is met with facts and
figures from the economic history of
the United States and other countries
which fully show the inaccuracy of
the charge. while the relative pros
perity of countries having low and |
protective tariffs respectively, is also
shown from official figures.
The chapter on labor wages SHOWS |
Deyound a question, as a result OF
thorough official investigation, that the
advance in wages during the past de
,ade has been greater than the ad-
vance in the cost of living, the figures
being based upon retail prices, the
prices which the public must pay for
he articles consumed. while 1t Is also
shown that the rate of wages now
being paid in the United States Is
higher than have ever been paid in
his or any other country.
The book also contains a sketch %
he life and work of President Roose'
yelt and OF Senator Fairbanks.

A FAMOUS SOCIETY.
where LOBdOn's Famous Preachers
and Teachers Gathered.

where LObdOn's Famous Preachers
and Teachers Gathered.
The closing decades of the last cen
fury comprehended the palmy period Of
a distinguished little society in London
which might have been described as II
club for the teachers and preachers of
their age, secular or religious. Such
indeed was the Metaphysical society
Its organizing spirit had perhaps been
James knowles. If its most famous
member were found in W. +. Gladstone
its leading spirits. who took the most
active part in its discussions, We're
Cardinal Manning and Richard Holt
Hutton. the editor of the Spectator
James Martineau, Matthew Arnold and
William George Ward, the erewhile
mathematical tutor of Ballot, as well
as the poet Browning, may sometimes
have been of the company but the chief
figures were those already mentioned.
In his earlier days Hutton, like so
many reflective men of his day, was
the disciple of L. ID. Maurice. Then
among his associates were j. NJ. Lud-
low anu L nblluS IluShtSf lAN dutAbA VI
tom Browns School Days After
ward r. IL. Hutton's mental master
would have been recognized by him in
his brother member of the Metaphys'
ical society, James Martfneau.
The great incidents in its proceedings
at this time were the high speculative
arguments wherein different sides were
taken by teachers of their generation
so mutually opposed and so individually
distinguished as Manning and Marti-
neau, upon very rare occasions, 1t may
be, by Gladstone, Browning and,
rather think, once or twice by Tenny-
son himself. The extraordinary mag
netism exercised by Martineau over his
personal following was perceptible in
has manner with casual acquaintances.
As such, 1t was realized very many
years ago by the present writer when,
as an exceedingly young man fresh
from college, he was concerned in pre-
pairing some examination questions, in
which his venerable seniors, Maurice
and Martineau, with one of two more
were to have VOICE.. ii. 8. Escott

HAVE WRONG NEGRO

In 1889, at Greensboro George
Smith, a negro, was murdered by
Madison Jessup. another negro. Judge
H. g. Wills, of this city, worked on
the case, but Jessup was never APP
pretended.
A little over a week ago Henry
Deane, son of Sam Deane, colored,
of this city, who works in Louisville,
was pointed out to the police by a
son of the murdered man as being
Madison Jessup. Deane was arrested
and taken to Owensboro Friday. In
the police court room in that city
witnesses were summoned to testify
to his identity Several negroes and
white men testified, that, in their
opinion, he is Jessup. VIM. Smart, of
this city, testified that, ten years ago,
Deane went to work for him at the
age of sixteen. Deane claims that
he is twenty-six years OF age, and
therefore only four years of age when
the crime was committed.
Deane is now in the Daviess county
Jail pending an investigation as to
his indentity. Prominent citizens OF
this city will testify that he is not
