REPUBLICANS AFRAID
TO DISCUSS STATE ISSUE

a vigorous defense of the taX-ln-
creaSing measures. He had hard
ly started into the subject when
Senator y. B. Scott called him
down good and hard for bringing
up State issues and informed
him that he had spoken long
enough. and would have to stop.
The Governor turned to the audi
ence and said:
"This may not be TIE time
and place to discuss this matter,
but | propose to come to this
county in this campaign and dis
cuss this matter if / have to adj
vertise myself to get a meeting. .
The Governor wants to talk on
the subject of increased taxation,
but the more astute Republican
leaders. fearing to have the mat
ter discussed, lest the falsity of
their claims should be discovered
by the people, are trying to hold
him in check
The more the matter is talked
of the better it will be for the
taxpaying people of West Vir-
ginia. and the worse it will be
for the Republican party.
1t is no wonder the Republi,
can leaders do not want the mat
ter discussed.

GOLD LEDGES ARELO-
GATED

Austin, Tex, April 21.-An anci-

which according to tradition, was
operated more than 800 years ago,
has been discovered, thirty miles

the state of Sonora. Mexico, by Guti-

Mr.. Lara was exploring one of the
numerous caves in the Santisimo

rich ledge of gold. II has long been
the superstitious belief of the natives
OF that section that the Ssntisimo
caves are inhabited by super natural
beings, and they have been little ex-

ACTED AS ORDERLY
Russian Girl Accompanied Her
Lover to the Front.
Heartless Lover Refuses to Marry Her
on Her Deathbed.

Vienna, April Alan Austrian
merchant. who has just arrived here
from Port Arthur, tells Of . most
dramatic incident which took place
there Immediately before his depsr-
ture from the besieged city. Among
the privates of one of the Siberian
regiments was a very handsome youth
named Listnikoff, who acted rs or
derby to a young lieutenant from
Smolensk.
Liatnikoff was very popular among
his fellow soldiers, owing to his
sammy disposition and remarkable
skill as a dancer. but they often
leased him on account Of his effemi-
nate appearanceg.
One day during a snowstorm Lat
nikoff slipped and broke his leg. He
declared that he was not hurt, but,
depsite bis protests, was taken to a
hospital. Here il was discovered
that he was unconscious and that his
arm was soaked in blood. While being
carried ON tn stretcher he had
opened an artery in this wrist, and
when the doctors examined closer
they were nmszed to find that the
patient in q soldiers uniform was
handsome Young woman.
She had been a sweetheart Of the
young lieutenant. and although only
is years Of age, had succeeded in in
ducing him to allow her to accompany
him to the front. Three days later
the girl. when on the point of death
from blood poisoning, implored her
lover to marry her, but he refused
absolutely.
For this behavior, be was ostrsoized
by his brother officers and compelled
to leave the regiment, and few hours
after the death of the girl he blew on,

DIFFERENT VIEWS
ARE EXPRESSED
In Louisville Pulpits by the Pas
tors There.
One Says There Is Holl aud Another
says There Isn't.

Louisville pastors seem to be Q
bright lot, but they ought to "get to-
gether, as the saying is. Last Sun
day. Judging from the reports in the
papers, was noted for conflicting de-
olarations. Here are few instances:
1.-THE old heaven and hell are both
arbitrary and unreasonable. declared
the Rev. W. II. Ramsey at the Church
OF the Messiah in his sermon. The
penalty does not match the onense,
and the reward is not proportional to
merit. The vile and cold blooded
murderer is sent TO eternal glory from
the gallows. while his victim. perhaps
a good, moral man. is sent TO hell be-
cause he has not belieeyd."
DR.. Hamilton at the McFerran
memorial church, declared on the
other hand:
Hell has a location and is not q
condition. DIR. Hamilton held that il
hell were only condition there need
be no separation, and that Jesus
taught separation in speaking of
chose on the right hand and those on
the left" People in hell will be con-
scious. :" he said, and cited the quota
ton, There shall be weeping and
waiting and gnashine OF teeth" The
fire spoken Of by Jesus is not . ma.
terisl thing, but used as an illustra-
tion OF the awful torments TO which
the body. mind and soul will be sub
jeoted. DR.. Hamilton also held that
man would have little respect for God
unless He had a place of punishment
for misdeeds, as did human beings on
earth. Every where God teaches
that hell IL eternal, and that man is
lost unless he accepts Christ's teach
ings." said DR.. Hamilton.
Rev. J. $. Lyons, at the First
Presbyterian church. answered an adj
dress by Rabbi II. q. Enelow. for
merly y Of Psduoah. in which the rabbi
claimed that the Jews were not re-
sponsible for Chiist's death. He con-
tended that the Jews were. He said
that although the Jews had not the
power Of administering death as .
punishment, they instigated the Ro-
mans to have Christ crucined and
said. Upon our heads be His blood
and upon the heads of our children. :"
Rev. Carter Helm Jones. at the
Broadway Baptist church, declared,
on the other hand, that no deep-think-
ing man could rightly say that the
Jewish race, taken as II whole, should
be held responsible for the death Of
Christ. and that the Jewish people Of
today should in no way be held &C
countsble for the actions of people
who lived thousands Of years ago.
1.-THE Jews have done much toward
contributing to the worlds best liter
allure. art. sculpture aud finance and
have made themselves n nation against
which nothing but good could be
charged"

for me to venture upon a controversy
with him.
Then, referring to chance news
paper comparison of Conkling to
Henry Winter Davis, lately dead, he
continued: ~ 49,.
'The gentleman took it seriously
and it has given his strut additional
pomposity. The resemb lance is
great; it is striking-Hyperion to a
satyr, Thersites to Hercules, mud to
marble, dunghill to diamond, singed
cat to a Bengal tiger, whipped pup
py to a roaring lion. Shade of the
mighty Davis, forgive the almost
PROCLAMATION of that jocose satire"
There could be no reconciliation
after such an onslaught, and the bat.
tie was to the death. Defeated for
the Republican nomination by Conk-
ling and his friends in 1876 and again
in 1880, Blaine in the latter year
threw his following to his friend
Garfield, who, nominated and elected,
made Blaine his secretary of state
and official right hand. Then came the
struggle over the New York patron
age, which retired Conkling, and was
followed by the assassination of Gar
field. In 1884, when Blaine was final

Conkling was no longer in politics,
but the sequel proved that his was
still the will and power. to strike a.
mortal blow A detection of a few
hundred votes in Conkling's home

normally Republican, to Cleveland,

York and the presidency. Conkling

Goes Back to Nature

comes from the hand of nature. Per-
sonally I prefer the fruit of the tropics
bananas, persimmons, figs, dates
which have been proved to give as
great strength and endurance as does
any mixed diet.
"The objects in living on natural
food are:
"First-To make us more natural IN
thought and in action
Second - From an economical
standpoint, it is far cheaper where
these fruits grow. It is well known
by travellers in the tropics that we
can live on 81 month or less.
''Third-There is very decided hui
manhattan issue in this diet. No anil
NAL has to suffer Imprisonment and
final slaughter in order to feed the
fruitarian. The fruitarian will take
his meal directly from the tree and
eat"
Mr.. Darling has evidently found
these results in his mode of life, for
he has built himself up wonderfully
When he left Portland year ago he
weighed ninety pounds, while now he
weighs about one hundred and sew
enty-five pounds. 1t was done with
out drop of medicine.
He rises at daylight, takes a cold
shower bath, then runs half mile or
so. Then he goes through calisthenic
exercises before eating breakfast OF
fruit. He eats regularly three times
each day and always has a good ap
