How They Do Things in Kentucky

A late special from Mayfield. KY. to
the Courier-Journal says:
Lying on the floor in various pos
lures, and just as they had fallen. each
with bullet wound which had caused
death, three men were found tonight
in the storeroom of Mark Wilson. one
of the dead men in Lynnville. Smoke
filled the room and was slowly curling
out OF the windows. Two revolyers.
both still smoking from recent dis
charge. were found on the floor by the
sides of the men who had them.
THE dead men are Mark Wilson.
West Wilson, his brother, and Arthur
West. Mark Wilson was shot through
the breast; West Wilson was shot
through the face and heart. and West
had round, smooth hole in his fore
head. Death seemed to have come in
stantly to all three. No sign of life
was found in any of the three when
outsiders entered and tried to do
something to rouse them"

Going Back on Its Own.

Two steam dredges for the Panama
canal have been purchased abroad al
a saving Of between 100000 and $780,
600. A great howl has been raised
by the manufacturers against the ac-
ton of the government, and they seem
to have some grounds for a kick. The
mother of the trusts seems to be de-
sorting her offspring. The govern
ment creates the tariff and then buys
outside the United States and pays no
duty on her goods The Fort Worth
Record says of the trusts: "They are
entitled to their graft ON government
supplies as well as on private affairs
The government gave them the right
to tax the people. and it certainly
ought to take its own medicine"

GOVERNOR BRoWARo.

Governor Broward seems to be i'm
pers, wherever he has appeared, that
his position on the drainage matter
was just about right.-Tampa Herald.
Let's see about this. Leon county
was perhaps the only county in the
state where the drainage scheme was
the primary it was so announced and
the two candidates for the senate.
Messrs. w. A. Rawls and John w.
Henderson, made this the special fea-
ture of their canvass of the county.
Governor Broward became intensely
interested in the matter: visited the
country precincts, took part in the dis
cussions and gave the weight of his
influence to the drainage candidates.
Mr. Rawls, the administration can
didate. a member of the last legisla-
ture and personally popular, carried
but one precinct in the county, in
which the total vote was eleven. He
received less than one-fourth of the
vote of the county.
There were six candidates for the
house. the only one chosen being
strongly anti-drainage; and the only
candidate openly advocating the
drainage proposition received only
seventeen votes.
Speaking of political cyclones and
tornadoes, no such disastrous result
has ever before been recorded in the
history of politics in Florida.

god little bit over his defeat for the
legislature in the recent primary. He
says he had to buck up against rail-

bauched and corrupted voter. He even
goes so far as to say that the judges
soiled their political ermine in their
efforts to defeat him and that all the
county officers were arrayed against
him. He threatens to make a formal
protest before the county executive

people in the county to stand to his
