Former Mayor Lang One of the
Hearst Enthusiasts.
The free Silver Democrats Seem to
DO Largely in Favor Of the
Editor.
EXPECT TO CARRY COUNTY

william Randolph Hearst, the
edi tor statesman, has
quite following in Paducah, although
little has been heard Of il. IL has de-
veloped that lot of Bryan men are
tooth and toe nail for Hearst, and de-
clare that they intend to carry the
county for him, despite statements that
the Democrats of his county and dis.
trict are for Parker.
One of the most enthusiastic Hearst
men in Paducah is Hon. James NJ
Lang, former Mayor, and his drug
store is sort of Hearst headquarters.
One Of his lieutenants is Col. Joe Pot
ter. formerly councilman, and 1t is
found on investigation that Hearst has
a large following. many OF whom visit
the drug store daily and talk over
prospects.
A great deal Of work is being done
throughout the country districts for
the newspaper man, and II seems TO
be quite effective, as he seems to be
the only Democrat who is really out
seeking tho nomination, and working
for IL. The Others mentioned for the
nomination do not appear to want it,
and apparently little work, IL any, is
being done for them.
Former Mayor Lang is very en-
thusisstic for Mr.. Hearst, and stated
this morning that be 10 for him
'i;arst, last and all the time"
~ think that all the Bryan men are
for Hearst, he said to reporter to-
day. IF they are not they ought 10
be. He is the only candidate promi-
nently mentioned by the Democrats
who advocates the principles espoused
by Mr.. Bryan. We expect TO win in
the county"
Former Mayor Lang stated that he
would not vote for Cleveland even
should he be nominated.
Many Democrats decline 10 express
a choice, hs they can't tell which
way the cat is going 30 jump. Mayor
Yeiser was asked how he stood but rs
usual, the Mayor himself didn't know.
lie said he was for anyone nominated
by the Democrats. Thus far he mas
no preference.
u begins 20 look as II there is going
20 be q lively fight in McCracken
county for the delegates to the Demo
cratic convention. Since Cleveland
came out for Judge Parser, the lat
ter's popularity in this section seems
to be on the wane, especially among
the free-silver crowd, which FREEDOM.
mates in the Democratic party.

Rev. j. W. SYKES, until recently
rector of Grace church, today received
call from. the bishop of the diocese
of Fon- DuLac, Wis, to report at once,
and take charge of one of the churches

not know which one it is, but he will
leave at once to assume charge, and
expects to get away Thursday, if not
sooner.
Rev. Mr.. Sykes has been in Padu.
cab for the past two years, and has a
host of friends here who will wish

HALF A MILLION
WILL Be MUSTERED
Russia Will Do Nothing Until
She is Ready.
Operations on a Large Scale Expected
by Summer-No Skirmish
Lately.
LITTLE FROM FAR EAST

st. Petersburg. April ~. --Excep-
tiorally reliable information regard
ing the Russian military plans confirm
the repeated announcements made by
the Associated Press that these plans
willnot mature until late in the season.
They are of far greater magnitude
than is believed abroad, and take into
account all possible contingencies.
Gen. Kuropatkin, remembering the
experience Of Russia during her war
with Turkey, when the Russian army
Of 30. 900 placed in the field at the be-
ginning had TO be more than doubled,
has insisted that the men and guns TO
be placed at his disposal shall cover
the extreme limit required to settle the
fate Of the campaign.
The Russian plans are predicted
upon Napoleon dictum, that "God
tightson the side of the heavy battal-
lions" aud they are being worked out
and timed so as to be of superior num-
bers on sea and land simultaneously.
The army is designed to attain the
enormous total of half a million at
the time scheduled for the reinforce
ment of Vice Admiral Makaroff's feet,
with the Baltic squadron

As the New Alderman to Succeed
y Mr.. Durrett.
The Mayor Intimates He May Appoint
Whoever Alderman Durrett.
Recommends.
MIR. DURRETT UNDECIDED.

There is much speculation at pres
ent over who will be chosen alderman
to succeed Alderman Lucjen Durrett,
who has been elected assistant super
intendent of the city electric light
plant. Alderman Durrett's SUCCESSOR
will be appointed by Mayor Yeiser.
It is said that Mayor Yeiser may
name Former Councilman Will p.
Hummell to fill the vacancy. Coun-
Gilman Hummel won considerable dis
tinction during his two years service
in the council because of his volubil-
ity. and some Of the alderman are al
ready anticipating his possible APP
pointment to their board with signs Of
distress and alarm.
1t has been reported that Dr. J. G..
Brooks would be appointed, but this
is denied by some of the close friends
of Mayor Yeiser, who say that DR..
Brooks does not want the place. and
besides wonld not be appointed be-
cause he is not q politician.
Mayor Yeiser today stated in regard
to the affair that he had not given the
matter any consideration, but that he
thought he would appoint whomever
Alderman Durrett suggested, provided
it was some one he could consistently
appoint He said he thought possibly
it could be only right that the retir-
ing aldermen be sllowedto select the
man to succeed him
Some of the aldermen seem to think,
on the other hand, that the board of
aldermen might be consulted in the
selection of the new member in case
of vacancy.
Alderman Dnrrett, who was present
and heard what the mayor had to say
about the appointments, stated that he
was not certain that he would resign
and accept the position to which he
wss elected at the light plant, and
that he had not yet decided on any
one to recommend as his successor in
the board of aldermen should he re-
sign his seat.

was a mass Of flames, and the watch
man sent in a fire alarm over the
Western Unions signal service. and q
few moments another alarm was sent
in over the city's system. The alarm
was at 4;06 o'clock.
Both departments made quick
runs. considering the distance they

DATES ARE FIXED
FOR CONVENTIONS
Republican County Committee
Met Yesterday.
The County Convention on April 23
and Precinc Conventions
April 2lst.
LIVELY INTEREST Taken

The county Republican Committee
met at the Palmer House yesterday
afternoon and appointed April 23, as
the time for holding the county Re-
publican convention, and the county
court house, in the city, as the place
of meeting.
Precinct MEETINGS will be held at the
various voting places in the county on
April 81, at $3.50 p. m, for the pur
pose of selecting delegates to the con-
vention.
Considerable inversst is being taken
in the race for county chairman. Mr..
W. J. White and Mr.. Louis Bebout,
both of this city, are candidates for
the position. They will run a close
race and lively fight is promised.
The fact that delegates to the State
Republican convention in Louisville
May 3, and to the district convention
in this city, April 2s, in which state
and national politics will be involved,
will be chosen at the county conven-
ton, makes it one of unusual signifi-
canoe, and the selection of the dele
gates, will be made with view to
their favor of candidates, for several
important offices.
= 1t the state convention, delegates
to the national convention, for the
electionsof candidate for president
will be named. Three of those under
stood to be favored. in this part of the
state for delegates from the state at
large are; Ex-Governor William o.
Bradley, of Louisville, Hon. Geo. W.
Long, of Leitchfeld and Hon. r. P.
Ernst, of Coyington.
Another duty of the convention will
be the selection of chairman of the
Republican State Central committee,
and the choice Will probably fall upon
Mr.. Ernst Hon. John W. Yerkes is
said to be the choice of local politi-
clans as Republican National Com
mitteeman, which office is also supplied
at the state convention.
The district convention, however,
is source of more enthusiasm, since
it comes closer home, and the fight for
district chairman promises to be IN
usually warm. Mr.. Ed Miller, of
this city, Hon. W. ]. DeBoe, of Grit
tenden, and Mr.. q. p Thomas, of
Trigg, are the prominent candidates.
Mr. Miller's chances for election are
said to be excellent.
Candidates for congress, who will
submit their claims to the district con.
are getting in considerable
work. Those whose
names will likely come before the con-
vention are: Mr.. j. G. Speight, of
Mr.. Hardin Ford, of Mar
shall and Mr.. Jerre NJ. Porter, of
Hickman.
Mr.. Jerre Porter will probably be
given the instructions OF McCracken
county.
