Gov. Beckham'S Policeman.
[Owsnsboro Messenger ]

The information in the following
dispatch will be a modification to
every Kentuckian who has a pride
in the dignity of his State:
Frankfort, KY, Sept. 15.-The
Franklin county grand jury this af-
ternoon returned an indictment
charging Wingate Thompson with
selling liquor without license.
Thompson is a capitol square police
man and operates boarding house
for workmen at the new capitol site
on the South side. The charge was
brought against Thompson by a To-
cal paper"
The charge that this policeman
was running a blind tiger, on the
new capitol grounds was made by
tic Frankfort aptr fully six weeks
sgn.
Ire capitol square policeman is an
appuiotee OF the governor, and is
S Ibject to removal by him. The
governor, Of course, cannot he in
ignorance of this disgraceful piece
of conduct by this officer of his ap-

MACHINE R0TTENNESS RE-
SPONSIBLE.

Almost every week there crops
out something to emphasize the rot
tenness of the present State admin
istration. A fruitful source seems
to be the Asylums, where our un-
fortunate friends and relatives are
supposed to be treated and dealt
with in all gentleness. Just now the
news comes from Lexington that a
patient in the Eastern Asylum has
been killed by a brutal attendant.
This is the Asylum which is presided
over by DR.. Redwine, brother of
the Judge Redwine, notorious for
his Music Hall Convention rulings.
No doubt the attendant was appoint
ed to his job because of. his ability to
knock down and drag out his political
opponents in Conventions, rather
than for an amiable disposition and
gentleness of spirit such as one
should possess who must care for
those unfortunate people.
Only a short time ago something
similar happened at Lakeland, which
after a show of an investigation,
was promptly hushed, to the best in
terests of the machine, and no one
was ever punished, nor, so far as we
ever heard, even lost his job.
The people of Kentucky want
these Institutions removed from
politics, and they are going to have
it done sooner or later.
In all of his messages to the Leg
islature Governor Bradley strongly
urged that this be done. Last win
ter, the Republican members of the
Legislature under the leadership of
our own Senator Bennett. struggled
hard to get the majority to take a
high position upon this question,
and place these poor people, wards
of the State, in position to be prop
erly cared for. They asked for
bread and were given a stone." In
stead of creating a non-partisar
board, it was made up of henchmen
of the machine, headed by the noto
riOus, and discredited Percy Haley
In addition. and as though this
was not enough to stagger the good
people of the State, they took away
from the Sheriffs and friends Of tn
insane the right to convey them tC
the various Asylums, and put thi,
duty in the hands of henchmen, whc
have to be sent for at Frankfort, OF
some sea shore resort, to do this del
icate task, while the poor lunatic
must either go to Jail and be con
fined among criminals, or be guard
ed at the expense of relatives o.
friends.
If the voters Of this State stand
for a crowd who will fasten upon
them such conditions, we will con-
clude that by a sudden influx in inn

Not the Familiar Reason.

The Turkish government wishes
to raise more revenue and proposes
a three-million-dollar addition to its
Tariff. The Turkish government is
not exactly free and independent.
England seems to have right to
interpose in this question, and APP
parently proposes to exercise this
right. saying: This increase is
bound to handicap British trade.
We think we have seen like state
ment by the British correspondent
of our Free-Trade papers. This is
very different to the attitude as
sumed by Great Britain and its ad-
vocates in this country, for Ameri-
can consumption. Here we are told
that we have to pay the duty. We
have to pay the duty not only on
what we buy from her, but also on
what we make, and Protection in
jures only ourselves.
Of course, different goods are
manufactured for and exported to
different markets. This is legiti-
mate commercial procedure. and
not tainted by sordid greed, if done
in the interest of Reform. But we
would ask our Free-Trade contempo-
raries if they will claim in this in
stance that through the action of
the iniquitous Dingley law England
is forced us Brummagem ware, or if
on account of our increased pro-
duction under the working of that
law they are compelled to send US a
better class of mental merchandise
than goes to the Turkish market?

SECRETARY SHAW will speak at
Leitchfeld and Elizabethtown in the
interest of Mr.. Heavrln's candidacy
for Congress. Mr.. Shaw is one OF
the most forceful speakers in the
United States and draws large
crowds wherever he goes. He
makes use of knock down argu-
ment, which is convincing and yet
his whole manner of kindness and
fairness to his opponents compels
them to keep their temper, and re-
spect him. In a speech at Nashville
recently the Secretary, in referring
to the shifting habits of Democracy,
said, they made tariff the issue in
1892, which they deserted for free
silver in 1896, and dropped free sill
yer for Anti-Imperialism in 1900.
After an impressive pause, he said,
will some one please tell what the
issue was in 1904"

pointment. 1t is possible he may
have known nothing of it until six
weeks ago, when the scandal was
first published. but it is not possible
that he has not been familiar with it
since that time. But he has made
no step, so far as we are advised, un-
til this good hour to remove this
man, or even to rebuke him for his
violation of the law though sworn
officer of the commonwealth. Win
gate Thompson is a pet and protege
of the governor. He is said to be a
handy man about the executive office
and the mansion.
But here we have a governor sud
denly waking up after six years to
the violation of the Sunday law in
Louisville though doing nothing to
enforce it in other cities and trying
to raise the temperance issue with
his distinguished opponent in the
race for United States senator, who
allows peace officer of his own ap-
pointment to fagrantly violate the
liquor laws, weekdays and Sundays,
in the very best part of the city of
his own residence. Meanwhile his
henchmen are going about trying to
get Baptist associations, Methodist
conferences and other religious
bodies to endorse his stand for
temperance.

No TOWN in Kentucky presents so
many attractions to the home seek
err. who would live life surrounded
by religious influences and educa-
tional advantages, as Hartford. 1t
has always had these advantages. 1t
is now to have, in addition, COM
mercial standing it has not hereto
fore known. With river and rail-
road facilities for transportation,
nothing can keep Hartford, with its
rich agricultural lands surrounding,
and untold wealth in coal-a combl-
nation rarely seen-from becoming
one of the most important towns
west of Louisville, in the State. Did
we say nothing could prevent it?
We wish to modify that statement.
A few Knockers" few citizens
who have acquired the habit, through
years of practice, of "bucking
against the breeching," can dwarf
and stunt a town, no matter what
its natural advantages. That every
citizen may see our opportunities, is
our earnest desire. That which is
best for the town, is best for us all.
Let us reason together, and what
ever we undertake, pull together.

BRYAN as an Artful Dodger.

What has become of Mr.. Bryan's
boasted courage and sincerity? 1t
evoporated when be got into the
enemy's country. His first speech
in the south, that at Louisville,
straddled government railway own
ership. This was his paramount is
sue in his Madison Square garden
speech. He advocated it in many
addresses afterward. In New Eng
land, in New Jersey, in Illinois, in
Missouri and in other states he urg-
ed the purchase and operation of the
railways, the federal government to
take the trunk lines and the states
to buy the local roads. IL have
reached the conclusion" he an
nounced at Madison Square garden,
that there will be no permanent
relief on the railway question from
discrimination between individuals
and between places, and from eXtor-
tionate rates until the railways are
property of the government, and
operated by the government in the
interest of the people" This was
the message he carried for his fell
lew-Americans after his tour round
the world. In that first and biggest
speech which he has made since his
arrival in the United States he gave
particular emphasis to railway own
ership and operation by the govern
ment.
But in the first speech which he
has made on his swing round the
circle in the south he lodges the
ownership issue. IF you ask me,
he said in his Louisville address,
whether government ownership
will be an issue in the campaign of
1908, | answer do not know. If
you ask me whether it ought to be
in the platform, reply | can not
tell until ! know what the Demo-
cratic voters think upon the sub
ject." This sort of Difference to the
views of other Democrats on mat
ters of paramount concern is some
thing new to Bryan. When David
B. Hill and others of the conserva-
tive section of the Democracy went
to Bryan, at his home in Nebraska,
at the opening of the Kansas City
convention in 1900, and asked him to
let them frame a money plank for
the platform which would omit all
mention of silver and Of the burn
ing issue of 1896. he told them that
he had already written the money
plank for Kansas City, and that un-
less they accepted that plank they
could not have him. They accepted
the plank, with its reaffirmation OF
Is to or bust. Bryan has often
boasted of his part in framing that
Kansas City deliverance.
Were the southern protests against
Bryan's paramount for 1908 toe
much for his courage and honesty
1t looks that way. He lodged the
issue in the first talk he made to hi'
southern supporters. In previous
speeches Bryan had ridiculed the at
tempt to swerve him from his advo
cacy of the ownership and operation
of the railroads. But in Louisville
when brought face to face with th'
south for the first time since his ar
rival in the country, he threw VI
his hands.

II Glance Into the Past.

While this publication proposes to
speak of DeLand's present and pos
sible future, rather than of its his
tory and its past, still, it will not be
amiss to glance backward a few years
to the beginning.
The town was really first "estab-
lished" on the 18th day of March. 1881,
when the first municipal election was
held, which resulted in the election of
the following officials:
Mayor-C. H. Wright.
Clerk and Treausrer- {. Strack-
Marshal and Collector-D. M.
Cooney.
Aldermen-J. Y. Parce, ]. ]. Banta,
cent Kirk.
The first settlement of this section.
embracing what is now the town of
DeLand, was made in 1875. Capt.
John Rich, now deceased. was the first
settler, and he was followed soon
afterwards by others.
Mr.. H. A DeLand, of FairpOrt,
N Y, first gave the town its start by
his energetic work and Judicious ad-
vertising of our advantages and at
fractions.
Perhaps the following address de-
livered by Mr.. H. A. DeLand be-
fore a meeting of the Old Settlers
Society, tells the story of the found
ing of the town in its most authentic
and concise form. He says:
You say Tell us what called you
here" what did you come here for?
"how happened you to come here;"
tell us some of your first experiences
etc, etc.
Your questions are easily answered
in part, not so easily fully. The first
time | came here l came without any
purpose except sightseeing. The sec
ond time | came here and after
wards, had definite purpose or pur-
poses. | might say negative, first,
that | did not come for my health,
for | have always had excellent
health. and secondly, that | did not
come here to make money for self, for
| was worth before | saw Florida all
| purposed to be worth for me and
mine, having "stuck a stake" early in
business life, that if | was prosDered
and got to be worth said certain sum,
would give away for benevolent pur-
poses and do good with all | made
above that sum. having clear convic-
tons, that if I had talent to make
money it was my duty to make monev
to do good with, as much as it is
