Representative John Rhea, of Ken
lucky, in an elaborate interview given
out at Washington, says: 1.-THE Dem.
ocracy of Kentucky is, or ought to be
satisfied with the nomination of any
Democrat, real Democrat, | mean. "
So they ought. But has anyone ever
decided what real Democrat" is:
Mr.. Cleveland claims he is one of the
"real." Mr.. Bryan claims he is a
type of the only genuine Democrat,
and each has lot of fellows willing
to swear he is right. The question of
what "real Democrat" is, is one that
will probably never be settled. 1t is
the rock on which that badly patched
party has split, and is going to stay
split. There is one thing evident,
however, and that is that neither a
real nor an artificial Democrat will
ever sit in the White House.

NO STATE FAIR.
FEARS THAT ATTENDANCE WILL

The directors Of the Kentucky Live.
stock Breeders Association will be
called at Louisville in few days to
consider the question of abandoning
the Kentucky State Fair for 1904 ow-
ing to the big opposition the St. Lou

Minnesota have abandoned their fairs
for 1904, and Indiana would have
abandoned its fair except that Indian
apolis guaranteed its success. There
will be at the st. Louis Exposition
practically everything offered at q
State fair and much more and il is
feared that persons interested in fairs
will go to st. Louis instead of pat

THE VIEWS OF
ATTORNEY GENERAL

Washington, March 16-The attor.
ney general being asked concerning
the merger decision said:
my views of the decision can not
be better expressed in the language OF
one of the best known railroad presi-
dents in the United States on the oc-
casion of the decision in favor of the
government in the court below.
"He said: The decision is sound
law, good sense and for the advantage
of all legitimate interests, and for the
country's welfare and it voices the
Judgment of probably nine .tenths of
the most conservative business men of
the country
1.-THE country is to be congratulated
that the governments protest against
the first appearance of the holding
company as a device to control com
peting interstate railroads hes not
been in vain. One of the results of
the governors action has been to ac-
celerate tine return TO more sober
methods in commercial affairs.

personal power inrailrosd management

the decision upon other railroads, l

have only to say:
1.-The government has never claimed
that the law is any broader than it.
language plainly indicates. II between
other railroads there exist contracts,
combinations and con spiracies by
which interstate commerce is re-
strained, then they violate the law
during the trial and argument the
government paid no heed to defend
ants contention that the makeup OF
substantially all the great American
systems OF railroads WAS on trial
The governments position then was
that the question before the court was
the validity Of the Northern Securities
device.
Its invalidity is what the court has
decided. The government is claiming
no more now in respect to this case
than it did before the bar of the lower
court.
II say this much, not because ii is
necessary to give the country sssur-
ance that the government does rot
mean to run amuck, bot because of
the hystericsl character of that part
of the defendants case and some ut
terauces that followed the decision Of

theatrical Notes.

Billy Kersands came to the Kenuoky
theater last night with his own min
strel, and had top heavy house. The
colored minstrel record was broken,
over six times the amount taken in
at many other cities recently, being
taken in at the box Office here. One
reason for this is that Billy Kersands
has been favorite here for years, and
has daughter and son-in-law living
here, the letter being DIR. Nelson, the
colored physician.
Billy Kersands has good show,
considering thefact that it is its first
season, but there is plenty of room for
improvement. Kersnnds himself is
good, but somewhat ancient, and he
needs some good comedians. He has
mt single comedian above the ordi.

Of the first part were good, notably

discount, especially the trombonist,

finest in the country. Some of the
jokes were old, and some coarse. The
