IL is announced in Hopkinsville
that the suit against the Kitty league
for a receiver will not be dropped
because the league disbanded for the
season. The New Era says:
"The disbanding of the X. |. T.
league will have no effect on the suit
for damages and the winding up of
the leagues affairs, says Attorney
John Feland, in whose name and by
whom the suit was filed. The papers
In the case have all been duly served
and John Sites ana Herman South
all, who were appointed to represent
the non-resdents defendants, Secre-
tary Greaney and Treasurer c. c.
Gosnell, have accepted the appoint
ment and have filed their notice that
the case would be fought. Although
the Kitty is dead, it will be like at
other deaths, there will be warm
fight in the courts over the property
left.
This suit, however will amount to
nothing. The money is all in an
other state and out of the jurisdic-
tion of Kentucky, hence the Ken
lucky courts cannot enforce any
order disposing of It. The Cairo
crowd is most too foxy for the rest
of the league. This has been proven
ever since the Kitty league was or
ganized. Secretary Farnbaker has
managed to have his own way, even
to disbanding the league when Cairo
got tired of It. They may say what
they please about Farnbaker, but
he's most too smooth for the others.
Farnbaker has always worked
hard for the god of the league, but
he wasn't always given a square deal.
Some of the others got it in for him
last season and tried TO Dust him as
secretary. They didn't do 1t because
it turned out that Farnbaker had
the money and the records. Hop
kinsyille and Henderson used all the
ammunition they had on him, how
ever, and complacently announced
that he had been ousted as secre-
tary.
Then this year Farnbaker bobbed
up again as acting secretary" which
simply meant secretary and when he
got a chance Hopkinsvile was
kicked out of the league. Soon after
the league became a four-club affair
Cairo decided that II wasn't worth
while to play ball when she couldn't
be at the top, and decided that the
league must disband. A meeting OF
directors was held a week ago and
it was announced that the league
would not disband, but would play
indefinitely, If not to the end of the
season.
Cairo then sent Farnbaker up to
Cincinnati, he met some of the high
gaZabos of the National association
and arranged for the league to quit
and retain its players Then Farm.
baker telegraphed the news, and
without a meeting of directors or
any further Formally. the league
dsbanded four days after IL had de-
clded to keep playing.
Farnbaker should be given his
dues. He's the candy. He's too
foxy for the others, and ought to be
in faster company.

SENATOR AND PRESIDENT.

Senator Teller seems to take perennial delight in
prodding President Roosevelt with the envenomed
opposition of bitter partisanship. This is to be
regretted The illustrious Senator has grown hoary
and venerable in devoted and herculean services to
the Republican party IT'S true that the intense
zeal of new converts, late in life, has become pro-
verbal, but it is pity that Senator Teller should
tarnish his lustrous career by a course of narrow
craftsmanship. Against honest and generous opposi-
ton no intelligent man will protest and our present
chief magistrate great though he be as an able,
predetermined and patriotic statesman, cannot hope
wish to enjoy immunity from such reasonable
and wholesome opposition. But, although his un-
fortunate party alignment tends to incite the antag
onism of many of most patriotic political lead
ers it would be refreshing-and a cause for con-
graduation as well-f there were manifest spirit
sufficiently broad and magnanimous to recognize in
most worthy and estimabe President man of
such exalted character and political ideals as to
merit the enthusiastic cooperation of every genu-
nely patriotic citizen, regardless of party utilization
or bias. 1t is the prevalence of such spirit that
renders people truly great and worthy Is it utter.

America? Perish the thought!

INNOVATION.
inserutable!

The beaten paths of life are the safest as well as
the easiest, to traverse. They present the lines Of
least resistance, hence are ever crowded by the
horde. If we would conquer new realms in the
physical, intellectual spiritual order, we must
boldly and heroically launch forth on the unexpored
seas of adventure. We may thus encounter hardshps
and breakers, but unless some of us are willing
to do and dare our civilization must soon Weld to
stagnation and decay. As inovators however, let
US have care as to the motives by which we are
animated. If these be pure and unselfish-in-
spired by earnest devotion to God and man-we
shall safely, though arduousy, and. nayhap in $50
lation, ride upon the crest of the waves; but if
are actuated by motives of sef-esteem or idle cur
iosity, we shall be plunged into the sloughs of
fusion and dismay, and finally perish in the whirl
pools of our own reckessness and passions.

COMPROMISE GOVERNOR

The Gubernatorial contest in our nelghborlng
state is settled-legally it may be, but fairly,
certainly not. The people have the right to choose
their executive the Constitution provides the way
it shall be done. When the voice of the people is
hushed, and their political rights denied by reject
ing their votes, free government is at standstlll
A compromise court, which robs man of his
rights, is not legal nor just The real Governor Of
Colorado for the next two years is either Alya
Adams, or Peabody-not the present incumbent. Is
it beyond the power of the great state of Colorado
to decide who was elected If so, a free govern
ment by free people is null and void. But the
people all right. They vote, they have right
to do for their choice of an executive. But the
choice of the majority is not the choice of the
minority, whose power, wealth and influence out
weighs the numerical strength of the minority. The
powerful and influential minority dislike defeat 1t
may be all right for the horny of toll yield
to the inevitable, but not with the purse-proud
who claim the earth.
The election in Colorado exemplifes all this.
For two years the peace of the state had been dis
turbed. The people wanted certain legal enact
ments Their representatives promised faithfully
that their wishes would be attended. They we're
elected only to betray the trust imposed upon them.

because they were betrayed. Then came the contest
between capital and labor which lasted up to the

was not confined to one political party. No sane
man could be convinced that it was confined to one

the compromise which placed in the Gubernatorial

Hadley of Yale. The former by virtue of his ex-
allied position and the unbounded admiration and
esteem he has won by the grandeur and sturdiness
of his character will probably leave a indelli-
bic impress upon the character of his generation
than any other individual of our time How fortu-
nate therefore, that he has enthusiastically
champoned the cause of the simple life, so to speak
Our worthy chief magistrate has merited the pro-
found gratitude of his fellow men in more ways
than one, but in none, it is reasonable to assert,
more pronouncedly than by the lofty ideals that
he would inculcate by his glowing words and his
pure and admirable life.
Time there was and that not very long ago,
when newspaper which dared to make a practice
of dcnouncing the money-spirit of the age would
excite the suspicion of being a disgruntled crank
or even of being tainted with anarchistic senti-
ments Then it required moral courage of high
order to pursue course dictated by sentiments Of
Christianity humanitaranism.
Fortunately the public mind is prepared
for the propaganda for higher ideals the prosecu-
ton of which is peculiarly the mission of the re-
ligious press

AN INEXPLICABLE PHENOMENON.

In the Irish Independent the Rev. p j. Bowling
c. NJ, makes appeal to the people of ireland
to emulate the japanese in their adoption of the
best features of the civilization of the more adj
yanced nations. Is this not most remarkable
plea!
But in very truth, the attitude of mind of these
little brown men challenges the most profound and
the most intense admiration of an astonished world
In the light of the knowledge we possess of human
nature, in all its various phases as manifested i'm
all past and the present ages the unique attitude
of this marvellous Oriental race presents an mex
plicable, an absolutely incomprehensible psychoo-
gical phenomenon. No other nation upon earth. it
is safe to assert, could by any possibility be per-
suaded that it might be we'll for it to adopt the
standards of alien races. To thus acknowledge the
superior intellectual and moral excellence of
ones contemporaries, implies degree of hui
mility that is utterly wanting in all other
races or nations of the world. One is therefore
moved to ask: Whence this marvellous light that
has animated this erstwhile despised race of Mon
golians, to pursue course so utterly opposed to
human nature, understand it, But the ques
tioning must be all in vain, for the phenomenon ut
terly battles the reason of man.
Verify, the ways of the Lord are mysterious and
inserutable!

LIFE INSURANCE DEPREDATI ONS.

One of the gigantic life insurance companies of
New York is being prosecuted by a number of its
policy-holders for wrongful sequestration of their
funds. The reckessness and dishonesty of the man
agement of these sacred institutions is the most
reprehensible form in which "frenzied finance" has
yet manifested itself. If there are any funds that
should be regarded as sacred by those with whom
they are entrusted it is those laid aside often at
great socri6ce, by the millions of lifepolicy hold
ers of the land as provision for their dependent
dear ones when they shall be deprived of the sup
port of the household provder.
Several months prior to the publication of al
legged startling frauds directed against these funds
by certain managers of life insurance companies.
the present writer prepared for publication series
of articles calling attention to the enormous losses
that the policy holders in the largest companies of
the land we're made to suffer by the gross extrava
gance of the trusted managers of these sacred nst
tutions of the people. This phrase is used advised
y, for these life insurance companies are with very
few conspicuous exceptions, purely mutual, and
their managers are merely and simply the servants
of the policy holders.
By this reckless extravagance-eX expenditures in
excess of the ratio experienced by several of the
judiciously and economically managed com
panies of the country-these policy holders are
mulcted to the tune of over twenty-five millions of
dollars annually
If any evidence were necessary to establish the
fact that the conditions of the day. created by the
mad chase after wealth, render it incumbent upon
men, qualified by experience and opportunity and
animated by Christian principles, to wage relent
less warfare against the spirit of greed that is so
utterly subversive to all Christian ideals it is here
abundantly afforded. How can men, who prostitute
themselves to this ignobe spirit, in order that they
may the more grossly wallow in the esh-pots of fe
be aught but contaminators of their kind2 And
when it is remembered that these men are among
the most conspicuous and reputable members of
our society-professed church members and NOR
alists-we cannot help but tremble for the future
of our civilization.
Never was there time more opportune than is
the present to do heroic battle for the prevalence
of higher ideals. The pace has been set by such IL
lusriolls men as President Roosevelt and President

THE ORDINANCE CONCERT.

The annual concert for the benefit Of St. AIMS
Orphanage on last Saturday evening was signal
artistic and financial success. For once the good
people of Salt Lake cast their bread upon the waters
for noble cause and had not long to wait for an
ample reward
Upon Miss Nora Gleason, who worked so de-
votedly and indefatigably for the success of the
enterprise. too much praise cannot be bestowed.
Her patience and tact in training the wee tots for
their parts is especially worthy of mention.
Whilst there many features of most excellent
merit the proficiency and winsomeness of the dear
little ones alone afforded an entertainment both
thoroughly enjoyable and highly meritorious.

THE VALUE OF MODESTY.

An act of self-abuegation in what is deemed
worthy cause always appeals irresistably to
noble instinct in the human heart. When Kuropat-
kin rendered his services in a subordinate command
in the Russian army after having been deposed
from the the position of commander n-chief there
was aroused in the hearts of the soldiery much
latent enthusiasm. Stranger things have hap
pened than that this one act of noble sef-sacrifee
the tide in favor of the Russian forces. 1t is
type of heriosm that is more potent in human af-
fairs than ruthless pluck and arrogant valor
which goes to prove that the nobler instincts are
still dominant in the human race and leads to the
hope for better things when this truth shall get to
be fully appreciated and duly esteemed by the
ruling classes.

the patriotic garb of deep, indellible green-admr
