The campaign is warming up,
and from now until the election
isover the political news will be
in evidence. AS usual, the adj,
herentS of both parties will see
favorable indications, while the
enthusiastic element will see an
unprecedented victory. The
Democrats will figure on an I'M
usual majority, and the Republi-
cans will count up their game
and land their ticket, no doubt,
but all this will happen on esti-
mates, hopes and ifs, while the
voters of the State will set at
naught the theories that now
prevail. The old adage, Moth
ing great is lightly won," is a
good one, and from the evidence
now confronting us, we feel GER
tain that the victor in the COM
ing election will be proud Of the
effort as we'll as the result. So
far as the News is able to dis
Germ, political conditions are nor
NAL, and no great deviation in
the returns from the voters need
be expected. The ousting of the
Louisville officials by the Appel
late Court, is one of the straws
that give hope and encourage
ment to the Republicans. The
Democratic crusade on the liquor
e e m ent of Louisville, and
throughout the State, is another
that inspires the lead
ers of that party, Combining the
two, and linking in the old cam
paign cry of political persecution,
they have actually figured to win,
and many of the rank and file
really believe it. On the other
side, the overthrow of the Louis
vile election, the appointments
made by Governor Beckham en-
abling him to carry out the de-
mands of the temperance peo-
pie, impresses the belief that the
loss of the liquor vote will be
more than repaid by the gain in
those who favor better living
both in private and public life.
At any rate, there is not likely
to be a sweeping loss nor an as
founding gain to either party.
Outside Of Louisville, political life
is normal, and the State Demo-
cratic. The State never was so
prosperous, and never was doing
so much for the advancement of
the people, morally, Intellectual
ly and financially. There is not
a single reason to demand a
change of parties, and not one to
the contention that one
will be made. Republicans are
but they will not find
sleeping sentinels on the DEM
ocratic watch towers. If the
people vote out, the result is not

A "New" American Incident.

How Theodore's pulses must
have quickened when he read the
dispatches reciting the manner in
which Pullman conductor on an
Arizona railroad, forcibly elected
a couple of Russian gentlemen
from the compartment for which
they had paid in order that the
Presidents daughter and Nick
Longworth, her husband. might
have that same compartment.
Not so much that his daughter was
favored is the feature that pleases
Roosevelt, as the evidence it gives
that the country is progressing in
the development of the caste idea,
and the further demonstration that
Americans have become so dead
ened to the old foolish errors OF
the right of every man to stand
equal before the law that we
scarcely notice the incident. Such
a thing would doubtless have
caused intense indignation in
Russia but it is allowed to pass
here with a mere mention in the
newspapers. And Nick Long
worth who has the honor to repre-
sent in the Federal Congress q
people supposed to detest all caste
distinctions with all the force oi
their natures, and whose funda-
mental governmental principle is
alleged to be the equality of all
men, complacently took possess
lion Of the compartment after the
two owners of the same had beer
thrown out. II Congress had q
splinter of its old time integrity
and a democracy, it would de-
mand an explanation Of Mr.
4 Longworth, but as it is owned by
the Trusts, IT doubtless secretly
lapplauds Longworth's assertion Of
This crank" But I'd like to know
what the two Russian gentlemen
coming from the land Of autrocra-
10y and Of foolish artificial distinc-
tions, think Of this exhibition d

In the w. G. T. U. column in
this issue is part of an address by
Rev. Bushnell wherein he advo-
Gates and defends Prohibition on
the score that it is not an infringe
ment on personal liberty further
than is demanded by "the well
fare of the State" There has
never been a measure of tyranical
restriction and oppression put into
law but "the welfare of the State"
was made it's justification. The
Pagans of Rome deemed it for
'the welfare of the State" that
Christians should be prosecuted
and suppressed; the intolerance
of the Middle Ages sheltered
itself behind the same plea; and
our Puritan Fathers bored the
Quakers' tongues with red-hot
irons and drove Roger Williams
to the wilderness because it was
for "the welfare of the State. "
Heretives-that is, people who did
not believe with the cruel majority
in all ages prior to individual
liberty OF thought were born to
hell-fire, were an abomination to
the Lord, and He would become
wroth with the State if it tolerated
them. Time was within the present
era that law, for "the welfare of
the State" decreed the cut and
fineness of the clothes the people
should wear; limited the sum they
were to receive for their labors,
etc., etc. "The welfare of the
State!" 1t is a most comprehen-
sive plea, and many crime
against humanity has been COM
mitted in it's name. Preach what
dogma you will, but urge not in its
behalf, pray you, to me, your
plea of "the welfare of the State. .
