AS TO REPUBLICAN KENTUCKY.

Many of our contemporaries are earn
estly engaged in an interesting, though
profitless, attempt to cipher out the
reasons why Kentucky elected a set of
Republican state officers and came per-
| ilously close to turning the legislature
over TO the Republicans. The opinion
is general that Judge Hager, the Dem
ocratio nominee for governor, was de-
feated because he had taken stand
| in favor of prohibition. 1t is possible
that this was a contributing cause. but
1t was not the only reason Hager and
his fellow Democrats lost.
If all the people who have voted for
prohibition in Kentucky had voted the
Democratic ticket at the last election
it would have won by one of the big
gest maJoritles ever recorded in that
state of one time big Democratic ma
jorities. There are 119 counties in the
state and in 100 of them the sale of in
toxicants of any description is abso-
lutely prohibited. The nineteen coun-
ties that are wet do not by any
means contain a majority of the vot-
ers.
1t must not be understood that the
cause of prohibition is losing ground
In Kentucky. On the contrary it is
gaining in spite of all that the liquor
element can do to stem the tide of
popular opinion. Hager may have lost
thousands of votes because he stood
against intoxicants, but he lost a great
many more because he was a recog-
nized part of the machine that has been
cunningly contrived by the young gov
ernor, Beckham. Hager was Beckham's
nominee for governor, and Beckham.
in spite Of his victory in a snap SEN
atorial primary more than a year ago.
is most unpopular in Kentucky.
Your Kentuckian abhOrs above all
things machine politics. He will not
willingly allow any man to place a yoke
upon his shoulders. He will not let
any man tell him he must do this thing
or that thing in a matter Of politics.
1t takes a Republican in Kentucky, or
anywhere else, for that matter, to be
a good machine man. The Democrats
simply will not stand for one. And so.
when their opportunity came, the Dem
ocrats of Kentucky rose in their might
and defeated the Democratic ticket.
They did not vote against Hager;
they voted against Beckham. And now
there are abundant indications that
Beckham will derive no profit from his
victory in the primary. The Democrats
who have been elected to the legisla-
ture are arguing that the defeat of the
state ticket, which was nominated at
the same time that Beckham was nom
mated for United States senator, alb
solves them from their pledge to vote
for Beckham. 1t us a new and curious
line of reasoning.
If there is a Democratic majority in
the Kentucky legislature and Beckham
is defeated for United States senator
and there is no law other than party |
law to prevent it-there will be little |
use in holding senatorial primaries in |
Kentucky or elsewhere.

MOTHERS COOKING.
Chicago News.

Chicago NeWs.)
I'm unwilling to distress her
By a sick, disguised look,
But my mother, heaven bless her.
Never did know how to cook.
While my filial affection
It's impossible to shake,
I've an awful recollection
Of the pie she used to make.
From that pie I've never rallied,
OleaginOuS with lard,
1t was tough and it was pallid.
1t was heavy, it was hard.
As a boy l had to risk it,
But she flunked on pie and cake.
And / shudder at the biscuit
That my mother used to make,
l left home when very youthful:
1t was all that saved my life,
And I'm partial, to be truthful,
To the cooking of my wife.
But l waste no hOneyed phrases
That would be a great mistake
And she often hears my praises
OF what mother used to make.

test IL may be noted that there is no
dispute over the proposition that the
fusion candidates and Mr.. Hall re-
ceived more votes than their nearest
competitors, the American" nominees.
The people of their respective precincts
very clearly intended to elect them TO
the council. Nobody seriously questions
that fact. The people wanted them and
they chose them. In contested election
cases the courts are very reluctant
about overturning the expressed will OF
the people
Indeed, there are very few cases ON
record in which such action has been
taken. We cannot at this time cite one
single instance. OF course, where it is
shown that gross frauds have been
committed, where voters have been in
Inundated and kept away from the poll
ing places, courts have ruled that con-
testants are entitled TO the places
sought, even though a recount of the
ballots showed a plurality for the con-
testees.
In a Missouri case of this character
an entirely new election was ordered,
because 1t was shown that both sides
were guilty of frauds: The Salt Lake
cases do not remotely parallel any of
the others. AS we have said, it Is i'm
possible to believe that any action in
court will be instituted, for 1t seems
perfectly clear that the only beneficial
ries would be the lawyers who take
part in it.

BATHING IN THE DEAD SEA.
BY No Means a Pleasure, According
to One Traveller.

mo sooner has one plunged into
the water than one is whipped off
ones feet and goes bobbing helplessly
about like a wretched cork" says Rev.
Haskett Smith of bathing in the Dead
sea. in the effort to regain ones
footing and to get back to shore, ones
feet and shins are barked by the
Jagged stones and pebbles, and when
at length one does emerge from it's
treacherous bosom, with the lower
limbs bleeding and torn, one becomes
aware of a horrible tingling and burn
Ing sensation in eyes, ears, nostrils,
mouth and almost every pore of the
skin, from the brine and bitumen
which have penetrated everywhere.
Unless great care is taken the
bather in the Dead sea is liable to an
eruption, which breaks out all over
his body and which is commonly
known as the Dead sea rash The
best antidote to this is to hurry across
as quickly as possible to, the river Jor
dan and take second plunge therein.
The soft and muddy waters of that
sacred but dirty stream will effectual-
ly remove the salt that has incrusted
the body"

COFFEE COMPLEXION.
Many Ladies Have Poor Compilations
from Coffee.

Coffee caused dark colored blotches
on my face and body. L had been
drinking it for long while and these
blotches gradually appeared, until
finally they became permanent and
were about as dark as coffee itself.
Il formerly had as fine a complex
ion as one could ask for.
when | became convinced that cof-
fee was the cause of my trouble, l
changed and took to using Postum
Food Coffee, and as made it well, ac-
cording to directions, liked it very
much, and have since that time used
1t in place of coffee.
Il am thankful to say I am not ner-
vous any more, as l was when I was
drinking coffee, and my complexion is
now as fair and good as it was years
ago. 1t is very plain that coffee caused
the trouble"
Most bad compilations are caused
by some disturbance of the stomach
and coffee is the greatest disturber of
digestion known. Almost any woman
can have fair complexion if she will

Coffee and nutritious, healthy food in

Wealthy Farmer, His Wife and
Two Daughters. Victims
OF Frightful Tragedy
were Returning Home From Picnic
When Their Buggy is Struck by
Fast Train, the Occupants of
the Vehicle Being Hurled
Against the Front of
the Locomotive.

Salt Lake City, tah-Scofield Ker-
shaw, wealthy farmer living near
Layton, his wife and two daughters
hhoda and Anna Kershaw, were in
stantly killed by a fast train on the
Oregon Short Line at Layton at 7:3O
o'clock Tuesday evening.
The party was driving across the
track just as the train swept around
the curve. Before they had time to
get off the tain bore down upon them.
The engineer endeavored to stop the
train Immediately before the accident
occurred, but was unable to do so.
The station at Layton is so situated
as to hide from view any train ap-
preaching from the north. For that rea.
son the Kershaw family had practical
ly no warning of the peril that was
upon them. They were riding in
s1ngle-seated vehicle, the children be-
ing in the laps of their parents, the
elder girl driving the horse.
The occupants of the buggy saw
the approaching train as the horse
stepped upon the track. Rhoda, Is
years of age, attempt to back the
horse from the tracks, but the animal
became frightened and plunged for
ward.
AS it did so the engine struck the
buggy with a terrible impact. The
occupants of the vehicle were hurled
against the front of the locomotive
above the pilot. The force of the
shock was so great that the bodies
Of all the four were crushed and
mangled.
The speed Of the train was so great
that, although the engineer closed the
throttle and set the emergency brakes
with every wheel sliding, it went half
a mile before it was brought to
stop. The four bodies were re-
moved from above the pilot, where
they were wedged beneath the front
end of the boiler.
Mr.. and Mrs. Kershaw had been at
the Old Folks picnic at Lagoon and
were returning thence at the time of
the accident Both of them had been
members of the entertainment COM
mittee which planned the picnic for
the old people of Salt Lake and Davis
counties. They left the picnic grounds
on the 6 40 o'clock train. They were
met at Layton by the two girls, who
had driven from the farm, three miles

ONE SHoT-TWO DEER.
Edwin currier Of Basin Mills So Kills
Buck and Doe.

Orono. Me-, Dec 5.-A positively au-
thenticated instance of hunter kill
ing two deer with one rife shot Oc-
Cured Tuesday less than two miles
from this village.
Edwin Currier and two friends, all
living at Basin Mills. were out hunt
ing. when they came upon two deer,
q small doe and a large buck. Both
were side by side, the buck n few feet
from the doe. Mr.. Currier fired at the
buck, but at the moment he pulled the
trigger the doe threw up her head.
Great was the hunters surprise to see
not only the buck fall, but the doe to
stagger off as if badly wounded, and
fall within a few rods.
Examination showed that the bullet
had gone through the does neck, cut
ting the large vein, and had struck the
buck fairly in the spine, killing him
almost instantly.
Both deer have been brought here
! and are on exhibition, the wounds
showing plainly Mr.. Currier and his
| companions are well-known and
reputable citizens and there is no doubt
as to the fact that Mr.. Currier killed
both deer with single shot.
