Can These Things Be?

In an interview bearing the stamp
of authenticity TX Senator Blackburn
is quoted as expressing the opinion
that the republicans have most
excellent opportunity to carry Ken
lucky in the gubernatorial race this
year. We do not know whether SEN
ator Blackburn made this statement
or not; indeed with the memory Of
the many battles in democracy's be-
half waged in the past by the loyal
leader, we sincerely hope that he did
not. However disappointment, es-
pecially that colored with political
ambition, often leads men into strange
paths, and in view of recent events,
that have happened 10 Kentucky
politics in the days not long gone.
1t Is possible that a cloud of resent
ment has obscured the erstwhile clear
vision of the Kentucky senator,
bringing forth words that came with
i'll grace from one who for lol these
many years has eaten bountifully at
the table of democracy. Then, too,
in view of the recent appointment by
President Roosevelt Of the ex-Sena-
tor to federal position which pays
fourteen thousand dollars a year, can
it be that the glamor OF the new en-
vironments, the call Of strange
voices, add the tempting allurments
of a snug berth beneath the kindly
wing of federal patronage, has caus-
ed the old war horse to forget the
old friends of the past, and TO turn
from the beaten paths of the old days
into the alluring fields, that lead
along the primrose path of momen-
tary promise? Far be it from us to
believe such things. We have too
high an estimate of Kentucky man
hood, too strong an assurance IN the
abiding faith of democracy, too firm
belief in the man himself.
Give US the proof and we will ad
nit our error, but it must be strong
proof bearing the undisputable
stamp of authority. Until then we
will still believe in the constancy OF
the old guard, still hold his banner
aloft, still remember his loyalty in
the past, and If it must be done,
draw veil over the questionable
ways Of the future. -Paducah News

SOCIAL REFORMS
AGITATING MINDS
OF STAIO BRITONS
By LADY HENRY SOMERSET.

LONDON. Oct 26.-"straws show
which way the wind blows" and tre-
mendous advance in thought is often
Indicated in very small ways.
At a meeting of the council school
managers at Rockingham, IN Noting
hamshire, the head teacher was told TO
discontinue the use of Mr.. Alexander s
hymn. All Things Bright and Beauti-
full on account Of the third verse:
The rich man in his castle, the poor
man at his gate.
Cod made them high or lowly, and or
dered their estate.
Il would certainly be 9 great step to-
ward the realization OF social reforms
il it could once be recognized that while
the laws OF the universe are ordered,
the application of them rests with our
selves and that in human and not in
divine arrangements we must look for
tho wrong and error which result in the
ineduality OF wealth. which is perhaps
the most terrible problem Of modern
civilization, and consequently that the
responsibility for their continuance rests
iu human hands. A parliamentary pa
per, just issued, gives particulars of
feTty-eight persons who died Of star
walton IN London, the richest city in the
world, last year, which Is an average
Of one person per week. Those who
think that God ordered this should at
least be quite sure that they have not
misinterpreted the orders.
Truly the follies of smart society
are many and various. The latest craze
among women Is nerve scents" which
is perfume heavily charged with ether,
chlOrOfOTm, or ammonia, carried in the
little reuCule in an innocent looking
stoppered bottle. The new form of drug
can be inhaled at any time, with what
disastrous effect on the brazil only doc
tors can tell. Possibly II Is only the
brainlesS who in this way play with
their health and endeavOr % make up
by continual stimulation for the ener-
vating effects of lives full of excitement,
but destitute of all serious interest.
