We will sing one song of our old Ken
 lucky home,
 Then our old Kentucky home, goodbye. If we change "home" to "jobs y and make the tune Q little more dolor- ous and funereal, we have the song-or shall we say the dirge (which the dem ocrats of the Blue Grass country have sung since last week k's election. The only one who failed to join in the claRt was Marse Henry Watterson. He, in- stead, conducted postmortem examin- ation of the state s democracy and an nounced horoscope of the slayer there of, one John Crepps Wickliffe Beckham, who is alleged to have been aided and abetted by James Hargis ct al. Marse Henry's productions have been printed in the news columns of this paper, and the thunders of gro Your Tents, Oh, Is-ael!n still reverberates through the land. But hear some of his country con temporaries:
 "The state,'' observes the Mayfeld Messenger, calmly and dispassionatelyi 'has gone republican from Cattlesburg to Hickman and from H. to break fast.'
 The Galloway Times arrives at prGe- tically the same conclusion as to the commonwealth s destination. Its hcad' lines read thus:
 KENTUCKY
 
 "GONE TO THE DEVIL AND THE
 REPUBLICANS"
 A perfectly logical reason for the re. suit is given by the Kentucky New Era:
 "We have met the enemy and we arc theirs
 "Perhaps the late J. Caesar (sisD expressed it little differently, but let Ter go at that.
 "It is not our fault; but somebody mind you, we are naming no names--but somebody or other voted for Wilson and you see what s happened" :"
 As if to prove Governor-to-be Vii. son s charge that the state is some twenty or forty years behind the times it seems that the democratic newspapers of the state had on hand large and lus- tily growing roosters wherewith to adorn their first pages the morning after election. Most of these, it is needless to say, never crowed in print, but the Meade County Messenger reduced the size of its bird and bid it crack its throat in these headlines:
 "MEADE 400. DEMOCRATS GIVE THE STATE
 TICKET USUAL MAJORITY.
 "CROW, YOU LITTLE RASCALl
 (The picture of very small rooster was inserted here.)
 "THANK THE LORD, WE SAVED
 OLD MEADE BY 400."
 Other papers printed their roosters upside down, having reserved space for them which had to be filled; and one resourceful editor, according to the Courier-Journal, cut off the head of his fowl The Somerset Journal was so sure of democratic victory that it wrote it's story and made up it's forms in al vance. When the smoke cleared away and the necessity of making some changes was apparent, the office force combined in rewriting the story. There was not sufficient time to fill the space originally allotted to portrait of 1" Governor Hager, however, so the picture was printed anyway, with the underline, "Peerless in Defeat
 We sympathize with our democratic friends in the Blue Grass, but beg to assure them that, since they have re- tained their sense of humor, all is not lost, by any means.--W Washington Her ald.

POLITICAL PROMISES.

President Roosevelt redeemed his
promises to the Newspaper Publishers
Association, after fashion, by recom
mending in his message that: There
should be'no tariff on any forest pro,
duct grown in this country; and, in eS,
pecial. there should be no tariff on
wood pulp If Congress should carry
out the Presidents recommendation
by abolshing the tariff tax on forest
products and wood pulp such action
would be entirely worthless to the
consumers Of print paper, because the
price Of print paper would remain the
same. Such an amendment to the
tariff law, would, however. be of great
advantage to the paper trust, for it
would give the combine free raw ma.
terial, which is now taxed, if bleaChed,'
81 ton and 1898 per ton if chemical.
ly prepared, or S166 per ton on ground
wood pulp in its raw state, all these
rates being on the basis of dry pulp.
This would still leave the average
tariff of $40 a ton on paper and pro-
tect the trust from the importation
of foreign. made paper from Canada
or elsewhere. Why did the President
not fully redeem his promise to the
Newspaper Publishers Association
and include in his recommendation to
Congress the repeal of the tariff duty
on paper? That would force the paper
trust to compete with the Canadian
paper mills and probably would re.
duce the, price of paper about $40 a
ton, which is the amount of the tariff |

STONE WORTH MUCH MONEY.
Invaluable Treasure In Possession of
 the British Museum.

There is a slab of black stone in the British museum which, If you could walk away with 1t and establish your claim as the owner. you could sell any day for a quarter of a million, and find half . dozen money kings in Eng land and America ready to buy 1t. There Is nothing very striking about this stone; 1t might be piece of black marble with some peculiar hieroglyph- ics upon 1t. But, 1t is just these hiero- glyphics which make 1t so valuable, because they are the key to all the an cient writings of the Egyptians, and without this stone, called the Ros- etta Stone. we should be unable to read the Egyptian writings which have been discovered from time to time. Some French tourists found the Rosetta Stone in Egypt, and trans ported 1t to Paris, where an English man took fancy to 1t for garden ornament. He paid $25 for it-five sovereigns, and got treasure which you could cover with gold, and yet not represent its value, but till the day of his death he did not know what that bit of stone was worth.

Emperor Solved Difficulty.

Frederic Villiers tells this story of the German emperor: The occasion was the marriage of the crown prince of Roumania to Princess Marie, the handsome eldest daughter of the late duke of Saxe-Coburg. After the func- tion the German emperor was the first to give the bridal kiss. He was in full English naval uniform. smoth- cred with decorations, and the bride was dressed in costume which could not bear much crushing. The kaiser, one could see, was trying to avoid this trouble and the birde was afraid, in turn. to disarrange his mass of decora- tions. In moment the emperor was seized with one of his brilliant ideas He took the pretty blushing bride by the right elbow, tilted her little to- ward him, launched himself forward and, bending over her, imprinted the kiss.

KIDNAPPED BRIDE
THRILLING ROMANCE OF A GAL.
 LIANT ITALIAN POLICEMAN.
By Dint of Much Running He Recov. cred the Fair Lady, Only to Find He had Spoiled a Scene for a
 Cinematograph Company.

Let us call the hero" police consta- ble X24. What his number or alpha bet was. or whether he even owned a number, does not in the least affect this story. Let this suffice: he was an Italian policeman, and the whole af- fair that followed happened at Via Sistina.
 This was the beginning. Police constable X24 was patrolling his usual beat one morning in early Au- gust. The day was hot. It was too hot to walk except when one was com pelled, too hot, indeed. for anyone to do anything at all, even for the pick pocket to trouble about his craft.
 On the opposite side of the road 8 dazzling procession of girls, dressed in white, and men in more sombre at- tire, was approaching. Police-consta- ble X24 cast on 1t an approving eye. A wedding procession was cheering on such day as this.
 At the head of the procession walk. ed the bride. charming in white silk and leaning on her husbands arm. Behind followed the bridesmaids, and in still longer line large number of friends and relatives. Just about now the strange, or as P. c. X24 would have expressed it. the decidedly suspicious behavior of a young man mounted on bicycle, attracted the constable's attention. A tilted lover. instinctively thought the policeman, with touch of professional pride.
 Slowing down the cylist neared the head of the wedding procession. Then suddenly, in much less time than it takes to relate, he leaped from his machine, rolled over the bridegroom, and, seizing the terrified little bride in his arms, leaped once more on to machine and made off as fast as safe ty would permit.
