POLITICAL md
PRIYA7E HONESTY.


Will the day ever como when
public opinion Will refuse to be
led by or to tolerate the sort of
politician who is a liar and a
lawbreaker during the political
campaign and essays to pose as
an honest man and good citi.
zen during other months of the
year? In Kentucky, indeed, with
an election every year, such an
one has little time in which to
divorce himself from his lpecu-
liar political practices. The time
is short in which he may prac-
tice virtue, for sometimes cam
paign covers the entire twelve
months of the year, and their is
at least ground for fear that his
hand may lose its cunning in his
periodical return to the path of
rectitude, and he be discovered
and branded at his true worth.
Mr.. Henry Watterson, in the
course of an editorial in the
Courier Journal the other day,
wrote
SIN the heat of party combat
many things are acclaimed which
later on will not bear dispassion-
ate scrunity. Although vicious,
it has come to be {, tacit, under
standing that men may say and
do that in politics which they
would not say or do in private
life. Certain rebates are, there
fore, allowed after the event to
such discrepancies by the public
Judgment, or, let us the rather
put it, by the leniency of public
sentiment"
Vicious is the right word, but
we do not believe the practice
has come to stay. We believe
that the day will come. and that
the tendency is in that direction
now, when the vicious political
demagogue will be valued at his
true worth by sufficient num-
Der of people to retire him to
privacy where he will do the
least harm to the people and the
community in which he lives.
Let US speed the day.

arose from the affair of Sir Anthony

tary for Ireland, in an effort to extract
further information as to how fer Mr..
Wyndham was involved in what he
has termed the under secretary's in
defensible" course connected with the

Wyndham, shouted

Mr.. Balfour Immediately raised a
point of order, the speaker ruled that
the remark was Offensive" and Mr..
Redmond promptly apologiZed and eX-
planned that he had not meant TO inn
ply that untruths had been told, but
that the whole truth had not been
told yet and that he did not want TO
be obliged to drag it out piecemeal.
Mr.. Redmond ultimately secured an
adjournment of the house to call at
tention to Sir Anthony MacDonnell's
position.

RAMA CoLLlERY.
SlXTY-OAE MAkGLED BODIES FOUND

RESCUE is PRACTICALLY AT
A STANDSTlLL.

Virginia City, Ala, Feb. 23.-Up to
Q p. rl sixty-one bodies of victims OF
Monday S mine disaster here had been
taken out and the rescuefs said that
they had just discovered room In
which they counted twenty more
corpses, making total OF eighty
dead accounted for.
The explosion broke the water pipes
flooding large part of the mine. IL
is therefore possible that 5many OF the
men were drowned, as several bodies
have been seen floating around in the
flooded rooms.
In many instances it is impossible
to identify the corpses, so badly are
they blackened and mangled. Abso-
lutely no hope is held out now OF find
ing anyone alive in the mine. Con-
servative estimates on the number OF
men in the mine place the total at
ll6 and there is no doubt but that
every man is dead.
Scenes at the entrance to the mines
all day have been gruesome and pite-

UNTIL THE END OF MARCH.
Liberals Will Give Time for Inaugural
ton of Reforms.

St. Petersburg, Feb. ga large
group of liberals has reached an I'M
portant agreement to await until the
end of March for the development OF
the governments programme before
formulating a new plan of campaign,
in the meantime not seeking TO EN-
barrass the government. Among the
moderates a more hopeful feeling eX-
lists that the government may meet
the situation in a fairly satisfactory
fashion. A responsible cabinet with
M. Witte at it's head is regarded as
already assured and the committee OF
ministers is providing for representa-
tives of the various classes interested
upon the commissions which are elab-
Grating the manifesto reforms of Dec.
%. The majority of the liberals, now
ever, still manifest skepticism, which
will not disappear until words are
translated to acts, while nothing the
government may do short of conVen-
ing a national assembly will appease
the radicals. A zensky tabor. they de-
ciaIe, will no longer suffice.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 23.-Although
the party which is advocating peace
as the only egress from the present
situation continues to gain strength
nothing has actually been decided ana
no move has yet been made. 1t is
officially maintained that Russia's at
titude is unchanged. AT the foreign
Office not the slightest encouragement
is given to the peace talk. On the
contrary it is affirmed as strongly as
ever that Japan must propose terms,
while at the same time 1t is admitted
that 1t is inconceivable that Japan can
offer conditions acceptable to Russia
and that, therefore, the war must 60
on to a conclusion. The idea of com

but 1t Is insisted that Russia is not

WILL CONTINUE TO FIGHT
RUSSIA NOT YET READY TO RD-
NIT THAT HER CHANCES
ARE HOPELESS.

Paris, Feb. 23.-Russia has not given
any indication to France that she Is
ready to take up the question of peace
and therefore the authorities here do
not feel qualified to discuss the st. Pe-
tersburg reports giving the peace
terms. The reports are explained sub
stantially as follows:
The peace sentiment has lately been
steadily augmeuting throughout Rus
sia. particularly outside of st. Peters
burg. and within recent days some OF
the most influential personages In 81.
Petersburg have come out favorable TO
peace and have sought to impress re-
sponsible officials that the time has ar
rived to take definite action. HOW
ever, those having the chief RESPONSE
, bility, such as Foreign Minister Lams-
dorff, have not yet shown willingness
to accept peace arguments. Therelofe
so long as the Russian foreign ONCE
Is not prepared to accept the peace
view it is considered doubtful or ac
colnpliskment In spite of this the
peace reports are considered hopefu
sign of a tendency in the highes'
quarters towards peace.
] The Japanese legation points ou'
that peace negotiations require Ger
tain definite steps between the parties
and as Russia has not yet made the
slightest overture to Japan concerning
terms Russian is not in position q
elaborate pacific conditions. The on
cials of the legation incline to th'
view that the st. Petersburg reports
were designed to
Sound Official Sentiment in Japan.

but the Japanese officials express
strong personal conviction that PRO

FRANCE WILL ASK ENGLAND.
Russia'S Roundabout Way of Finding
Out Japan's Terms.

Berlin, Feb. 23.-That the Russian
emperor has actually determined to
seek peace does not appear to be
known here officially, but this court
has been aware that the emperor
mind has been wayering between
peace and a continuance of the war.
What Emperor Nicholas has so 1ar
decided to do seems to be to request
OF France to ask the British foreign
office to inquire of Japan what terms
might be expected were Russia to pro-
pose peace, that is to say, the preiim-
mary steps are to be taken by the
seconds. Russia will thus be able TO
refuse to open negotiations if Japan's
terms are exorbitant.
