RAIL BIRDS
WERE KEPT BUSY THIS MORN
ING GUESSING RESULTS.
"Class B" Pace Entries Worked Out
Separately i'm Abaut the Same
Time.

The "Rail Birds" have been kept
busy this morning getting a line on
the starters In next Fridays races.
All the entries are getting their final
workouts and from indications the
next races Will be the best of the sea-
son. Four starters in one race work
ed the track separately, one in
1909 IL, one in 1:10, one in 1:1O
IA and one in I'LL. From this II
will be seen that the horses are per-
fectly matched for speed and it re-
mains to be seen who is the best dri-
yer. The race referred to above Is the
class "B" pace and it is the best
guessing proposition offered.
The running race is attracting
much attention and speculation is
ripe as to who has the best horse.
There is a hard choice between the
West Kentucky Stock Farms UTAH
and Mr.. Zach Bryant's Lady Eos
ter" Mr.. Dickerson claims that his
entry will show he way through the
stretch and Mr.. Scott is confident.
You pay 25c at the gate and take
your choice.

THE COCAINE HARIT.

Their are, it is said, 100000 CO.
caine fiends in New York City. In
Louisville there are several hundred.
Most of the cocaine victims here are,
like those in New York, young in
years. Many are, in fact, minors. Co
.caine fineds are slow suicides. They
last after initiation about two and
one-half years. They are as much
slaves to the drug habit as are men
who fall under the morphine or OPT
um spell. Cocaine, unlike morphine,
produces a temporarily stimulating
effect. inducing sleeplessness and
banishing fatigue. But in the end the
fell drug begets Authorizations, in
sanity, nervous wreck and death.
The state Of New York is taking
steps TO prohibit the indiscrlminate
sale Of this abominable poison. In
the New York American we read:
"a bill making the sale of the
drug without a doctors prescription
a felony has passed the assembly ana
will doubtless pass the senate. Ac-
ton on the measure in that body we
is scheduled for today.
At any rate. It will be taken soon
The bill will then lack only the sig
nature Of the governor to make 1t a
law. It is important that all those
who wish to protect the unfortunate
victims of the cocaine habit, and es-
pecially to shield the thousands of
boys who have come under the bane-
full influence of the drug ami the 9TH
er thousands who are liable to do so,
appeal to the governor for his favor
able action"
Every state and city guarantees
and makes regulations against dead
ly disease. But the cocaine habit is
more deadly scourge than any dis
ease. It wrecks not only the bodies,
but the minds and character of its
hapless victims. There are hundreds
in Louisville under the deadly witch
cry of cocaine. From it they should
be delivered by law.-Louisvllle Her.

of the general plan Of the Republic
cans to nominate only strong men
for Offices, state, county and city in
Kentucky this summer, and cut down

Kentucky. Professor McBroom's rec
ord is an open one. He has been be-
fore the public in positions of trust
and honor for many years and Padu-
cahans are acquainted with him. No
one came down from Frankfort to
dictate his nomination. He is rum
ming in the interest of no one person
nor faction. He has said he is bound
by no obligations that will hamper
his freedom in voting right every
time. We predict Professor Nc
Broom's election with the rest of the
ticket.

The Dawn of Reason.

In the days of unreason, when
thinking by the many was at a dis
count, and man accepted and follow
ed the beaten trails of custom, super
stition and prejudice, disease was
thought to be the results of the ac-
tivities of evil spirits. In order to
cure, the spirit must be driven out,
and spells and lamentations We're re-
sorted to. Later man considered dis
ease a visitation of the Just. wise,
merciful Almighty Father-Who in
His infinite wisdom, they thought,
saw At to infiict pain, misery and de-
formity on His children.
AS man began to make use of his
thinking powers he began to realize
that disease is not a thing but a CON
dition; state, discord in nature,
and that within himself he must
seek succor;" that the laws of nat
ure or the laws of God, and that both
are perfect,-improvement, as well
as disregard of them impossible.
