STUDIED THE ENEMY.
Admiral Simpsons Plans For .he Bonn.
bardn1ent of Havana.

Admiral Sampson had deter
mined to begin the Spanish-Amer-
lean war by the bombardment of
Havana, and on April /, 1898, Ev-
ans, then captain, wrote a letter to
the then editor Of Harpcr's Weekly
containing this paragraph:
Il shall have the honor of lead
inc in the Iowa. and when we open
'at about 500 yards, with Indiana
close astern, if those poor chaps
from the Maine don't giggle in their
collins it will be wonder"
This was the pregnant part of
the letter. Sampson was forbidden
from Washington to attack Havana,
much to his disappointment and
wrath. TO one sitting at dis
tance. not knowing Evans, not
knowing of the proposed lombard
ment only as a rumor, the letter
might have seemed bit of buster.
But after a few months chance
put the log book of the New York,
the flagship. in the way of the re-
cipient of the letter and there he
read Sampson's order for the bonn
bardment of Havana, giving the or
der of the ships and designating the
distance at which the firing should
begin, precisely as Evans had stated
them in the letter.
But why 90 in to within 800
yards of the new forts, which were
much more heavily armed than the
ships of SIMPSONS fleet? Months
after reading the log book the re-
cipient of the letter attended a dim
ner given in honor of Admiral
Sampson.
The admiral made there one of
the few speeches of his life, and in
t he told the reason--a reason
characteristic of his keen judgment
and of his boldness-for selecting
500 yards. He had found out that
short time before the Spaniards
had momcntarily awakened from
their usual torpor and had prac-
ticed from the new works, firing at
boating targets. They had hoated
these targets past their guns at
5000 Yards.
Sampson at once concluded that
they supposed that he would attack
1t that distance and quickly deter
mined to 60 in at 500 yards, for, he
explained. the Spaniards, having
once fixed their sights for a target
5000 yards away, would not be able
to change them, but would fire over
his ships until he had dismounted
their heavy pieces with his rapid
fire guns. So the chain was COM
pleted, for we had the facts and the
reason for them.-Harper's Week

THE MAN FOR GOVERNOR.

1T is not too early for the Repub-
licans to be considering a candidate
for Governor to oppose State Audit
or Hager. The selection of can.
didate next year is a matter of more
than ordinary concern to the party
and to the people Of Kentucky. This
time Democracy will enter the
contest exhausted from a bitter fac
tional fight. The primary struggle
was one for existence. The admin
istration won, and now those. who
can not make terms of peace, are
nonentities unless they can defeat
the administration at the election.
The normal Democratic majority in
Kentucky may easily be overcome
under such circumstances, provided
the Republican party presents a
solid front. To do this and carry
the entire party vote, a candidate
for Governor must be named, who
will meet with the approval of all
the leaders and the rank and file of
the party. Good men there are .
plenty, but the most of them bear
the scars Of other battles, and have
earned the envy of their co-workers.
No doubt the convention will be
able to choose from several availa-
blss, but just now we are certain of
but one man, who measures up to
all requirements for an ideal candi-
date, an excellent executive and a
brilliant leader, and at the same
time is free from the impedimert of
fractional alliance. That man is
Judge James Breathitt, of Hopkins
vile. He has no superiority at the
bar of West Kentucky, and as an
orator he probably has no peer in all
the State. He is man of the peo-
pie, and has proved his campaigning
qualities in his race for Circuit
Judge. Furthermore, Breathitt has
not been an Office seeker, and is not
now asking for the nomination for
Governor 1t is said by his intimates
that he has agreed privately to
stand for the nomination, if the par
ty want him, "-Paducah Sun
Just so, brother. Your position
is certainly most tenable one. We
must nominate man large enough
to don the Gubernatorial togs with
honor to himself and credit to the
party. We have all along been adj
vocating the nomination of Judge
Holt but if he does not enter the
race we are for Judge Breathitt to
the finish.
