TOBACCO WAR IN KENTUCKY.
REWARD OUT FOR THE CAPTURE
OF NIGHT RAIDERS.
Tobacco Beds Destroyed and Tobacco
Warehouses Burned by Growers Who
Want Higher Prices Talk or a Blood
Oath Among Them The Crop Affected.

LEXINGTON, KY, April 13.-The depreda-
tons committed by the so-called night
raiders have become so widespread that
Gov. Beckham has issued a proclamation
Offering a reward Of $500 for the apprehen-
sion and conviction of every person who
participates in the burning or injury Of
any barn or warehouse wherein is stored
any tobacco or who participates in the
destruction of any bed Of tobacco plants.
This is the second time Gov. Beckham
has taken action TO suppress night raiders.
Recently State Fire Commissioner Mott
Ayres went to Princeton upon the order
of the Governor and attempted to bring
to Justice persons who burned the trust
tobacco stemmeries in that town.
Ayres found it a difficult proposition.
The people, while deploring acts Of violence
against the tobacco trust, would give no
information by which the men implicated
in the arson might be brought to justice.
The fre marshal finally succeeded in
getting a ffteen-year-old boy TO give him
some Of the names Of night raiders, but
the evidence against the men accused was
very meagre and after weeks spent in a
vain attempt to bring the guilty into the
courts Mr.. Ayres returned to Frankfort.
This lad Price Morse, said that the raiders
were bound by an oath TO shed blood IL
necessary in order 10 accomplish the object
for which they were organized.
He said he was present at a meeting
whero the blood oath was administered.
The chairman Of tho meeting requested
that all should arise who had pledged them
selves to take up arms and shed blood
for the sSsociAtion. and Morse said that
the majority OF those present stood erect
and held up their hands while the chairman
repsated soms words which be was not
abls v recollect.

French thought his wife had taken
their small fortune home and was
considerably shocked to receive the
following telegram from his wife: Il

MAN AND HIS HORSE.
The Way to Show Approval That the
Animal Will Appreciate.

Caress plays no small part In de-
veloplng the best In any horse, but this
is never to be by word Of mouth. You
mnv rs well curse as bless for all your
horse knows or cares The caress OF
the hand addressed TO the part with
which the animal has just performed
some feat Is always appreciated-the
expression shows that-and one loves
TO see a good man as he lands safe
over a big place Just reach back and
give the clever horse loving pat or
two on that swelling muscular loin
which has been the chief agent In
negotiating the obstruction.
DO not pat neck or shoulder or any
part not actively engaged in the under
taking. Caress may do qo good, but
II is pleasant to believe that 1t does,
and we are quite positive that the
voice simply diyerts attention. The for
mer mode Of address IS at least worthy
OF trial II only as a mark Of apprecia-
ton between two gentlemen. The
threatening tones appear sometimes
servlceable. but this Is so only when
horses have been abused and associate
punishment with the stern voice. The
wild horse IS as Indifferent to the voice
OF affection as TO that Of rage.-From

result OF an encounter between the
two men when Senator Patterson was
knocked down and painfully Injured.
The encounter was the elimination
OF a newspaper controversy which has
been going on for several years be-
tween the proprietors Of the Post and
Senator Patterson, principal stock
holder OF the News-Times Publishing
company.
The stories of the two men differ
as to the details OF the encounter.
Patterson SAYS Bonfils came up behind
him and said Good morning" When
Re turned to see who addressed him,
Senator Patterson says, he was dealt
a terrific blow. which felled him, after
which his assailant beat and kicked
him before he could rise. Patterson
SAYS he did not know who had hit
him until after some men had sepa'
rated them. He adds that Bonfils
cursed him and threatened to kill him
II Bonfil's name appeared again In
the News or the Times.
Bonfls says that he and Patterson
met and a discussion arose over an al
lodged threat that Patterson had made
in the columns OF the News TO run
Bonfils out OF business or put him In
the penltentiaty. According to Bon
fills. Patterson reiterated the threat and
the fight started. Bonhls admits
knocking Patterson down but says he
was justified on account Of Patterson's
published and spoken language. Bon
ils says that Patterson was accompa-
MED by his son-in-law, Richard C.
Campbell when the dispute arose.
Former Senator Patterson is seventy
years old and Mr.. Bonfils Is about
forty-four.

SENATOR BRYAN.

The naming OF Hon. Vim. J Bryan,
Of jacksonville, by the Governor Of
Florida, to be Senator OF that State,
has placed in the Senate a young
member from the South, something
rather rare from this section OF the
United States. Though named long
before Hon. VIM. j., of Nebraska,
became famous, he bears the same
name, and this leads to the observa-
ton that had Mr.. Bryan, OF Ne
braska, accepted the invitation,
which 1t seems was extended him
several years since, to come and live
ia Oklohoma and lead the fight for
statehood and then receive a senator
ship from that State, he would short
~ be working side by side with VIM
j., OF Florida, and would probably
be OF much more value to his party
as a Senator than he ever can be as
q presidential candidate. However,
we hope the new Senator, who is only
thirty-one, viii prove himself worthy
OF the name he bears.
