A Party Calamity.

Will wonders never cease? When
you read this from the rank partisanRe-
publican sheet, the Lexington Leader.
you will answer never. 1t is as fol-
lows:
1.-The election of Gov. Bradley to
the United States Senate by an unholy
alliance was accomplished by the sacri-
flee of every hope of securing non-par-
tisan registration, election and reds,
tricting laws, and by the practical re-
pudiation IF the Republican platform
in favor of uniform county unit bill.
aud it has wrecked Gov. Wilson's adj
ministration so far as constructive
political legislation is concerned, and
opened the way for the rehabilitation
of Gov. Beckham on Temperance plat
form. The United States Senatorship
was not worth the price the Republi-
cans of Kentucky paid for it, and we
believe the day will come when the
election of Senator Bradley will be
looked upon as a party calamity"

A Temporary Interest.

Just after the election of 1904 man
who was prominent among the advo
Gates of Mr.. Parker's nomination at
St. Louis remarked that a great many
people who were advocating Mr.. Par
ker's nomination, showed very little
interest in tire campaign after the NOM
ination. 1t is true. There are certain
financial interests which are always
active before the convention they want
to dominate both parties and nominate
both candidates. After the convention
adjonrns, they pick out their candidate
and proceed to help elect him, ignoring
entirely The other candidate. even If
they helped to force him upon the con-
vention. That is just the situation at
this time. There are certain monopo-
listic influences that are demanding
that the democrats nominate a man
friendly to predatory wealth. These
men have their representatives in the
various states and they are working
uANSA manu. UHSu lhSy Tain " d man
they say: "Of course, we can not pre-
vent instructions, out we can get the
right kind Of men on the delegation,
and then watch our opportunity. 3"
These men are speaking in whispers !;
they are working underground If
they can control the Democratic con-
ventIon and nominate some one in
whom the predatory interests have con-
fidence, they will then feel sure that
the democratic PARTY has no chance.
and proceed to help the republican
candidate.
Can theh fool the voters? Not this
time. The experience of four years
ago has rot been forgotten and with
that experience fresh in memory, the
democrats will put none but the trust
worthy on guard. If the democratic
voter wants to understand the real
purpose of the trust papers, let him
compare the eulogies of Judge Parker
which appeared before the convention
with the Genunciations of him that
followed. These papers that told what
a splendid man ne was and how strong
the party would be under his leader
ship turned against him as soon as the
campaign opened.
The interest of predatory wealth in
the democratic party is only tempo
.rary. 1t is manifested just before the
convention because it would cost less
to defeat the democratic party in the
convention than to defeat it at the
polls, and the defeat of the demo-
cratic party is the only thing which
it desires.

Democrats Opportunity at Hand.

Not within the past sixteen years
has a more propitious opportunity pre-
scented itself for the restoration of the
Democratic party TO power, in State
and Nation, than that which presents
itself at the present time, is the opin-
ion of the leading politicians of the
country.
Republican leaders in Congress,
writes Mr.. Stanley from Washington
in the Courier-Journal. make no pre-
tense of concealing their anxiety over
the outcome of the national elections
next November. 1t is common thing
TO hear Republican members of the
House admit that the chances are
against the election of Republican
majority in the House next fall. Some
Republicans entertain very grave
doubts over the presidential election,
but console themselves with the nope
that the Democrats may do the wrong
thing at the right time
Wilson. as a Governor, so far has
met the predictions. of his enemies and
disappointed his friends. and Dictator
Bradley is doing his level best to dis
rupt the G. o. P in the State; the
situation is becoming acute between
the Taft and Fairbanks hosts, and the
financial depression has gotten in its
work to the detriment of the party in
power, which is invariably held to ac-
countability by the people for such an
occurrence, whether justly responsible
or not. So, if the Democratic party
can be depended upon to take advant-
age of the situation and not do the
wrong thing at the right time, the
country may yet be redeemed.

Why Not Before Election?

In his letter to the Indiana republi-
can convention wherein he pleaded for
postponement of tariff revision until
after the presidential election, Vice
President Fairbanks said: eve can.
however revise schedules as may re-
quire revision Immediately following
the coming election and before the
fourth of next March,"
Well. why not revise one or two
schedules before the election in order
to give the people a sample of tariff
revision by the republican party?
Why not revise the wood pulp sched-
ule for which revision republican pub
fishers are pleading so earnestly?

As Well Abolish State Courts.

The time honored doctrine of States
Rights received right severe jolt in
the Supreme Court at Washington last
week when that august body declared
unconstitutional the railroad rate laws
passed by the States of North Caro-
lima and Minnesota. The only member
of the Court that dissented was Justice
Harlan, the Kentuckian.
Several weeks ago there were two
suits filed in the Clark Circuit Court
against the Chesapeake & Ohio Rail-
road Company and certain of its en-
ployes living at Lexington. who were
charged with the duty of inspecting
ana keeping in repair boilers of its
engines. These suits were brought by
the representatives of an engineer and
fireman who were killed by the explc-
sion of boiler at Colby in Clark
country. something more than year
ago. When the attorneys began TAX
ing proof preparatory to the trail of
these cases they were served with an
injunction issuedIby the United States
Court prohibiting them from taking
any further steps in the cases in the
State Court.
The outcome of this procedure is be-
ing watched with interest by the legal
fraternity.
If the Federal Court can control
cases in the State Courts, the latter
had as we'll be abolished.

PLAN COMBINED ATTACK.

Chicago, April "a combined at
tack on the 2-cent passenger rate is
promised by the railroads that operate

1t is probable that the suits will be

The first step will be the applica-
ton in the federal court in Chicago
for an injunction to restrain the state
from maintaining in force the 2-cent

That the rate laws of Illinois, Min

simultaneously is conclusion from
the close touch, which has been main
tanned by railroad officials of the three
states in all their conferences.
Chicago railroad men declare that
Illinois roads have prepared statistics

DisIkes Idea Of Former Wife Marry
ing His Cousin.

ing His Cousin.
Paris, April 3.-Although Madame
Anna Gould, before her departure
from Paris for the United States, re-
peatedly denied to intimate friends
that she had any intention of marry
ing Prince Helie de Sagan the prince
was a welcome guest at her city and
country residences for months and
they often dined and went to the the
alter together. Madame Gould has al
ways been regarded as headstrong by
her friends and consequently they
would not be astonished if she per-
sisted in marrying the prince despite
the disas trous results of her marriage
to Count Boni de Castellane and the
present opposition of her family.
Count Boni de Castellane, who is a
cousin of the prince, is represented
as being furious at the confirmation of
his suspicious and the Paris news pa
pers naturally are having considerable
fun over the idea of Madame Gould's
re-entry into the French aristocracy
as the Princess de Sagan at reduced
fortune of only 100000 a year, that
sum being regarded as prodigious in
France. The Gil Bias is especially
hilarious over the princes alleged re-
ply to an insinuatien that he was
fortune hunter, in which he said:
cat my age a man only marries for
love"

MINISTER USES PENkN|FE
Amputates Leg of Man Pinioned
in Railroad Wreck.

st. Louis, April 3.-Five persons
were injured in a collision of Bur
lington railroad passenger train with
freight near here. J. A. MoKittrick
a stockman, was pinioned under the
wreckage by his left leg, which was
nearly crushed off at the knee. Scald.
ing steam from the damaged passen-
ger locomotive was enveloping him
and to save McKittrick's life Rev. R.
c. Allen of Grove City, Pa. cut off the
leg with a pocket knife.
With steam enveloping him Mckit-
trick pulled out his knife and handed
it to Rev. Mr.. Allen, who with others
was trying to drag the man loose from
the wreckage, commanded the minis
ter to cut off the crushed leg and save
him from being scalded to death.
Mrs. Emma Renner, trained nurse
from Cincinnati, passenger, pressed
a bottle of whisky to McKittrick's lips
and told him to drink. "Ill try little
of it," said McKittrick, ''but l haven't
touched a drop of the stuff in five
years." The steam from the engine
increased in quantity. "Cut off thai
leg. can't stay here and de- shout
ed McKittrick.
The minister then began cutting at
the tendons with the knife. It was
dull and McKittrick suffered intense
agony. Throw it away and get an
axe" he finally cried out. But Mr..
Allen desperately continued and in a
few minutes had severed the tendons
and McKittrick was carried into car.
At once Mrs Renner, the nurse, made
a tourniQuet of her veil and staunched
the flow of blood Soon afterward Nc
Kittrick was given attention by ply
stefan and was later brought to st.
Louis hos pital.

A Hard Bet to Win.

In 1895 three Irishmen agreed to IN
dertake journey around the earth on
foot for pool of $4,000. Each one
Of the party deposited one-third of this
sum in the Bank of Dublin, and it was
agreed that whoever survived the trip
and returned should receive the whole
amount. In case all died Dublin hos
pital was to become the beneficiary.
On Dec. "a, 1895, they started east
across Europe and Asia Minor to
Egypt, where they took passage for
Australia. Their wanderings through
the inner wastes of Australia proved
the hardest trials of the journey, and
the severity of this trip resulted in the
death of two of the travellers The
third, Captain Trevelyan, completed
the voyage and won the money.

CAUSES NO SURPRISE.
Action for Divorce Begun by Mrs. Al

.A &
New York, April 8. There is little
surprise expressed in any quarter over
the announcement that formal action
in suit for absolute divorce had been
taken by Mrs. Ellen French Wander
bilt against Alfred Gwynne Wander
bilt. Even rumors of impending ac-
ton which have been In free circua-
ton since March 26, when Mrs. Van
derbilt hurriedly left the Vanderbilt
farm at Portsmouth, r. T., are said to
have caused surprise only outside the
social set in which the couple have
been leaders. Within that circle it
had been known for year or more,
it is said, that there was lack Of
mutual good feeling between the
young people s f.t
Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt Inherited
a fortune of $50, 100000 at the death
OF his father, the late Cornelius VAN
derbilt. At the same time, although
a younger son, he became the head of
that branch of the Vanderbilt family,
his older brother Cornelius having be-
come estranged fren his father
through his marriage with Miss Grace
Wilson.

PACKED IN SOLID MASS

Prompt Action Of Policemen Respon.
sible for SmaII>Nunber of Fatalities.
New York, April 3.-Three persons
were killed, fifteen were. injured, some
OF them seriously, and the lives of
nearly hundred persons were endan-
gered by fire in a five-story tenement
house at A Hester street. The dead
are Berel Weinstein, his wife and
their one-year-old son. They were
suffocated and burned In their apart.
ments on the fifth floor. That more
lives were not lost was largely due to
the prompt action of three policemen,
who, seeing flames in the hall, rushed
through the building and aroused the
members of sixteen sleeping families.
BY that time the stairways we're a
mass of flames and the only means Of
exit was by the FIRE escapes. In their
mad attempt to escape scores of scant-
lily clad men, women and children
crowded the narrow iron platforms
and ladders until they became wedged
in solid masses on the fire escapes,
unable to extricate themselves and
blocking the way of those who had
not yet succeeded in getting out of
the building.
Many Jump to the Ground.
This was the situation when the
f1remen arrived and began to run up
ladders to take the panic stricken
fugitives from their perilous posi-
bined efforts of half a dozen fremen
were required to drag woman or
child from the tightly packed plat
forms. While firemen on ladders and
others on the ground were calling out
to them that there was no danger and
that help soon would reach them they
began, one by one, to jump from the
windows. David Miller sprang from
fourth story window and sustained
injuries which probably will cause his
death. Rosie Gallmann, Fannie Ber-
soft and Ryman Mettlemann, who
jumped from windows on the second
and third floors, have broken limbs
and were taken to hospitals. Several
others were internally injured. Many
others who sustained more or less
serious bruises refused to go to hos
pitfalls.
Weinstein and his wife and baby
were found lying dead in their rooms
On the top floor of the burning build
ing after the flames had been extin-
guished.

HINTS FOR FARMERS
Care of Swine.

See that the little pigs have plenty of
exercise and do not get too fat or they
will get thumps.
Don't give little pigs cornmeal. Wait
till they are a few months old before
you begin to do that. Give them plenty
sAsf room and hustle them around for
exercise
Feed the sows carefully. Give very
tsitiie corn and plenty Of roots. Too
Much corn will make crazy sows in
.delirium from fever.
Wheat middlings and shorts are
much better feeds for pigs than wheat
bran.
As the amount Of grain fed to brood
Eows must be small or they will get
hoo fat, most farmers try to fill them
esp by making a thin slop. Water is a
asoor filing material. Better use clover
4H alfalfa hay. This gives the animal
khe sensation of fullness and comfort
land at the same time furnishes most
fyaiuable autriment Mature hogs that
are thin may be made to gain half
mound per day on alfalfa without grain.
s~lt is high time that the value Of skim
milk and buttermilk as pig foods was
fully appreciated. AS an agency for
eearing all young animals they have no
kQual.
If there is any tendency to constipa-
tion, feed q little oilmeal or ground
taaxseed. Farm Journal.
