SERENE AND cocKsuRE

II HE Every Evening ina discussing
4 the fourth trial OF Caleb Pow
ers. charged with the murder Of VIII
Ham Goebei. OF Kentucky, says "There
is not the slightest ground for the con-
tention that he has not received fair
treatment al the hands Of both court
and jury upon each occasion. or that
be viii not be treated fairly again."
But the Every Evening IS about tho
only newspaper outside or Kentucky
that expresses such view. Indeed
the supreme Court OF Kentucky, a
Democratic tribunal, and suspected Of
a degree on partisan feeling, has thrice
set aside the verdicts of the trial
court. which is certainly evidence that
he has not received fair treatment
The case Of Powers has become FAM
ouus. and because Of the widespread
interest in the affair a number OF great
journals have sent trusted representa-
tives to Kentucky to write Il mp They
agree that the partisanship and spleen
OF the trial Judge has been extraordin-
ary that the rules Of evidence have
been set at naught and that the pur-
pose To- hang Powers, guilty or moi
guilty. is evident
some months ago an eminent writer
in Mcclure's Magazine who had studi-
ed the situation first hand gave as his
opinion that there wasn't a particle
OF good evidence 70 connect calel
Powers with the crime. but eyerythlng
TO lead 70 the presumption OF his inno-
cence.
And the editor Of the Every Evening
sitting in his Office some hundreds Of
miles from the scene Of the trial, pom
derlng the fact that Powers IS Re
publican and his prosecutors Demo-
Gratis. writes a lot or twaddle which
IS really a plea for the execution Of a
man who in an human probability D.
innocent
But not even the Ken;acky Demo
Gratis are unit Ia desiring the con-
yiction Of Powers The more honest
and Intelligent members OF that parts
regard these trials as efforts 90 hang
somebody for the murder OF Goeoel
whether guilty or innocent. They would
have hanged Governor Taylor had hl
not escaped. they determined to exc.
cute Youtsey and now they turn theii
eyes towards Powers in sort o.
hlood-lust The Every Evening should
remember that this is not Kentucky.

THERE'S going to be the l~iveliest kind
of a time in politics in this state and
county next year-before the nomina-
tions at least. The contest being with
in the republican party, however, the
defeated factions may "lay down" after
the nominations and the campaign be
the tamest ever. But in any event the
Independent voting will be considerably
larger than ever before in the state.
And why shouldn't people vote indie
pendently? independence is the great
boast of these United States, and yet
80 per cent of it's people are slaves to
party when they know perfectly we'll
they are being unjustly dealt with. Why
OF come out brayely and act just as
ldependently after the conventions as
efore and not take the advice of the
age OF Eldridge and ''vote 'er straight"

The census bureau has just issued a
bulletin on the illiteracy of native white
people between the ages of 10 and IA
years, and it is shown that in North Da-
kota in 1900 there were 7.6 out of every
thousand who could not read and write
while in Maine the number ran up to
1876, Texas 81, Georgia lC4, South Caro-
lima 148, North Carolina 1876, and New
Mexico 175. In 1897 the number in
North Dakota was 2S.2 against 7.6 in
1900: this is a very good decrease, show
ing that about three-fourths of the ILL
teracy had been obliterated in ten years.
Every state in the union shows some
decrese, but the proportion in North
Dakota is about as large as in any. This
is a high tribute to the educational sys-
ten of this state.

WaynesbOrO and to show bold front
to Sheridan until he could ascertain
the object of the Federal movement
He had but 1000 muskets in line and
six guns and did not intend to make
his last stand at that time BY hold
ing the enemy in check until night he
hoped to get his troops behind Rock
fish gap and compel Sheridan to fight
for the route to GordOnsville
Sheridan sent General Custer with
three brigades to attack the ridge held
by Early, and the Confederate leader
rode to the front just in time to see
Clusters leading detachment hurled
back on the road to Staunton by the
fire of Nelson's guns Custer maneu-
vered for, some hours out of the range
of the Confederate artillery, and late
in the afternoon one brigade passed
around to Early's left, where Whar-
toms infantry was guarding the line.
A message from Early to Wharton to
be alert did not reach that officer. and
his troops gave back in disorder under
Clusters attack, Unfortunately for
Early. Clusters advancing line could
not be seen by the artillery, and little
opposition could be offered to the bold
Federal advance.
Clusters flank detachment having
distracted the enemy at the front. he
sent brigade on a charge up the
ridge. This charge WAS headed by the
Eighth New York and the First Con
necticut cavalry, these two regiments
sweeping through all opposition and
breaking Early's last line of defense
in the warfare of the Shenandoah val
ley. Clusters prizes were all of Early's
wagons and subsistence, tents. guns
and battlefags and 1000 prisoners. in

batantS
When Early saw WhartOn's infantry
giving way he rode to the bridge over
South river leading to Rockfish gap
hoping to rally his men and check Fed
eral pursuit at that point But the
men could not be rallied, and Clusters
troopers forded the stream and got in
the rear of the Confederates. Early in
person, with his staff, started for the
woods and narrowly escaped capture.
but succeeded in getting through to
GordOnsville where Wharton joined
him. Part of his late command repair
ed to Petersburg and part rallied at
Lynchburg, where Early later took
command. Sheridan destroyed the ca
nal and railroad, as directed by Grant
but did not attempt to capture Lynch
burg nor to ride through to Shermans
army in North Carolina.
