CLEVER jim BROWN NEW DEPOT
MASTER.

One of the best and most efficient
members of the Frankfort police
force has been appointed Depot Mas
ter of the new Union Depot. Capt.

last. This is a first class appoint
ment, and is only return of clever

love. Capt. Brown was in the en-
ploy of the l.. & n. railroad until
the tragic death OF his gallant father,
Capt. Henry Brown, who, it will be
remembered, fell in the discharge OF
his duty as an officer, at the hands
of drunken and infuriated man,
number of years agos Capt. Jas.
Brown was appointed TO the police
force as his fathers successor. Right
well has he discharged his trust.
His familiarity with his work will
make him very efficient in caring for
his new charge.

terest to be picking too many notes
out of other peoples eyes.

1t is reported that the Republi-
can State executive committee will
hold a meeting in Parkersburg be-
tween Christmas and New Years or
the week following to select a date
and place for the holding of the
State nominating convention of the
party as well as to attend to such
other matters as may demand at
tentlon. AS the Republican nations
al executive committee has selected
a much earlier date than usual for
the national convention it is proba-
BILE that the committee will decide
upon one State convention, at
which the state ticlzetswill be nom
mated and the delegates selected to
go to the national convention. This
would be the means Of saving extra
expense, time and trouble to hole
both conventions in one and it ap-
pears to meet with the approval of
party members generally.

THURSDAY. DECEMBER 10, 1907.
Our Big Canal.

No better evidence of an ably d.
rected and efficiently conducted
national administration could be
desired than that presented 10y the
work of digging the Panama canal
which is proceeding with such sys-
TEN and dispatch. The dirt is fly
ing at a great rate and the amount
of work accomplished IS being ex-
ceeded as time goes on and plans
are followed out. The Presidents
report to the Congress of the pro-
gress of the work was especially
gratifying as was the evidence or
the active interest and careful at
tention displayed by him as shown
in his report OF the subject. Later
reports from the Isthmus state that
the work is con tinuing at the same
satisfactory and rapid manner and
that the job is a good one as far
as II goes.
The people awakened to the great
need OF an interoceanic canal dur
ing the Spanish-American war. That
this need is as imperative now as it
was felt then is brought to general
notice by the long voyage started
by sixteen of the big warships of
the American navy around Cape
Horn to Pacific waters. The aver
age American citizen thought much
about the Panama canal during the
recent war and while Congress de-
liberated on measures to construct
it, but after this was over and each
turned more of his attention to his
business and private affairs, the
canal has not attracted such general
attention. So the news that the
work has been going on so nicely
and the national administration is
carrying out tn wishes of the people
in such a splendid manner is in
deed cause for general qualification
as it is a compliment to the present
administration and it's peerless ex-
ecutiye.

That is new dodge to write
Democratic editorials and sign
them "A Republican" But, some
have been lodging so much of late
that they have become regular
jumping jacks, and, besides some of
those who sign themselves "Repub-

Democrats so long that they have
lost their identity as Republicans
and are in fact Democrats, unless
they can get just what they want
both as to party standing and cleo

City statistician Hugo Grosser of
Chicago has figured it out that Bos-
ton has every. other large city in the
nation beaten for sin. In six
months S9,4 arrests were mads
there for every 1000 of population.
Chicago's rate for a like period will
be only 29.S. Next to Boston, Nash
vile, Tenn, has the highest record
with Pittsburg next. Perhaps
Gros5er would have done better had
he noted that Boston has the other
cities OF the nation beaten in tho
punishment of sin. The tables
would then be turned around. His
figuring may serve to show after all

largest fires in the history of Athens
occurred at 4 o'clock Friday morning

the Orson Lace Leather company, the

reached them. The heaviest loss of

COTTON TAXES
FOR VETERANS
speight Introduces Bill for Re-
turn Of Money.
ABOUT $50, 900, 900 is INVOLVED
speight,s~ Bill Proposes that the
Money Shall Be Used for Paying
Pensions ito Confederate Soldiers
and Their Widows.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 8.-An-
other bill, which seeks to secure for
the people of the south the cotton tax
money collected Immediately after the
war under law which was later de-
clared unconstitutional, has been in
troduced by Representative Speight.>
1t differs slightly from the bill of
Representative Hefiin and others
which have formerly been introduced
and seeks to have the cotton tax
money now lying idle in the govern
ment treasury appropriated among
the cotton growing states in proper
ton to the amount of cotton raised
by them as shown by the census
1t is further provided that the
money just returned to the states
shall be used solely for the purpose
of paying pensions to confederate
soldiers and their widows. Though
the supreme courA has held that the
cotton tax money does not belong to
the government, all efforts so far
made to have it returned have proven
futile.
The amount, with interest, is now
about $50, 900, 900.

Given for Education.

New York, Feb. S.-The fund of

have now reached the great total OF
S79, 600 900, distributed as follows:
Chicago University $31 900, 600,

$22 900, 900, one third to be added to
the permanent endowment of the
board : two-thirds to be applied to
such specific objects within the cor
porate interests of the board as

direct, any remainder not so designat-
ed at the death of the survivor to be
added also to the permanent endow-
ment of the board. Very truly
John D. Rockefeller, Jr."
Most of the members of the board
were surprised at the announcement
and amazed at the size of the gift.
DR.. Buttrick, the secretary, said he
did not know the gift was to be made
until he received the letter. Other
members did not know of the dona-
tton until the letter was read.
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., remain

board. Asked if he had anything to
add to his letter, he replied he did
not believe he could add anything
of Importance to it, as the letter ex-
planned itself,
