poR1AN or A LAWSUIT.

City Treasurer Dorian was elected
the second time by the people of Pa
ducah. Since his first election he has
consistently and gradually Increased
collections of revenue and systema-
tiled the Office so that he gets the
city's money In early After his sec
ond election the Harrison-Lang fac
ton OF local Democracy discovered an
alleged technicality. by which they
thought they could prove him ineligi-
BILE. His opponent consulted attor.
news about It and gave up. The at.
torney general of Kentucky declared
he was eligible and fairly elected
However, this year one of HARRISON
workers. George Walters, was noml'
mated for the Office, on the agreement
that the organization should put az
the money for a lawsuit against Mr.
Dorian in the event Walters got the
most votes this fall, as he knew Mr.
Dorian would stand on his rights. II
was expected that the Republicans
would not nominate a candidate and
Walters would win by default. That
would have made, lawsuit, involving
the Office that handles the city's rev
enue, certain. In order to prevent a
lawsuit. which would cost the city
dear. the Republicans decided &c
name a candidate against Mr.. Wal
tiers, and in the event he gets the ma
jorlty of the votes, he is to stand
aside and let Mr.. Dorian continue in
office. The benefit of this proceed
ing is all for the city. To elect
Mr.. Grouse tomorrow will prevent a
lawsuit, and Mr.. Dorian, who was
elected by a large majority will moi
be disturbed.

THE OLD. OLD STORY.

1t appears to be necessary the Sat
urday night before every election for
The Sun to cram some lie down the
News-Democrat's throat with afiida-
Wits. Saturday morning of this year
the News-Democrat came out with a
preposterous story of alleged miscon-
duct at the city Jail, and The Sun
promptly replied with affidavits from
the parties concerned.
The Saturday night before the cleo
ton in 1907 The Sun produced afii-
davies of Englert & Bryant. grocers,
that Charles Graham. candidate for
the Democratic nomination for sheriff
of McCracken county, offered to make
a deal with them for the city's grocery
business in return for their support
of Tom Harrison. for mayor.
It is the same gang and the News
Democrat again this year. The Har-
rlson-Lang faction controlled the city
primary this year and put up a Re-
publican for alderman to detract
votes from Messrs. Lindsey and Bak-
er, and succeeded The faction con-
trolls the county chairman. and the
general manager of the News-Demo-
crat, whose brother also is district
chairman, is promised the postoffice
II Bryan is elected.
Through the chairman the gang
named the officers of the primary and
have made an unlawful rule that,
whether or not a man Is registered
as a Democrat. the officers can de-
termine his right to vote at the pri-
mary. thus enabling them to prevent
whoever they please voting. BY this
means they expect 20 force everybody
TO vote for Jim Clark for city taller
and George Walters for treasurer be-
fore they vote in the primary. II is a
desperate move on the part of the
gang. They have captured the party
organ. and the opposition has no voice
in the party. If II can control the
general council, the city treasurer
and jailer, and get the sheriff, circuit
Judge and clerks. II will indeed be en-
nenched, and the night riders may
burn Paducah.

A LIE WELL STUCK TO.

We knew Dave Cross was the au-
thor of that accusation against Cap
tain Wade Brown, and We knew he
wouldn't swear to II. No one else
around the city hall would stand for
II. Honest Police Capt. Frank Har-
Ian, whose name was dragged in by
the News Democrat. declared he never
knew OF any such occurrence, and yet
II a negro trusty carried the keys TO
the women's cells and produced a
female prisoner when Captain Har-
Ian called for her. does anyone think
Captain Harlan would not have re-
membered It. and does anyone be-
lieye such an occurrence last August
would not have found its way into
the News-Democrat's columns until
three DAYS before the election? All
the News-Democrat did Sunday was
corroborate The Suns affidavits, that
Eula Humphreys was the girl in ques-
|tion and that she swore Captain
Wade Brown himself attended her
IL the News-Democrat thought the
girl was too stupid to know, why
didn't 1t take her mothers AFFIDAVIT?
She wasn't drugged. We wonder
what sort Of a lie the paper will pub
llsh tomorrow morning too late for
us to refute.

WHY WE ARE FOR THE BOND
ISSUE.

Why does The Sun favor the school
bond issue?
Because the only people who care
anything for the schools OF Paducah
are in favor of the bond issue.
Because those. who oppose the bond
issue, fail to suggest a means OF
providing revenue to maintain the
schools the balance of the year, and
the situation next year will be a du-
plication of this one. with the added
embarrassment of more pupils;
Because the sanitary condition OF
the schools is bad, and means of safe.
ty for the children inadequate;
Because when a man like w. j
Hills, one OF the busiest men in the
city, gives up his time to school prob
lens and declares this is the only
practical solution, The Sun, which has
been working for the schools for
years. feels like getting behind him
and helping;
Because the bond issue won't in.
crease the annual city and school levy
one cent, and will be paid of in a few
years with a sinking fund of $40 200
a year, which viii come out of the
present rate of taxation;
Because we spend more on the
streets, more on the police and fire
departments; more on almost every
department of the city than on the
schools. and it costs Paducah more tc
punish bad citizens now than II does
to make good citizens;
Because the issue of bonds by the
schools will not interfere with in any
way or limit the amount OF bonds the
city may desire to issue now or at any
future time;
Because The Sun feels that since
we need bonds to properly repair and
equip buildings, we might as well Is
sue bonds for building at the same
time. as to go to the expense of two
elections: for school building bonds
will be urgently needed in a year or
two. anyhow, and they do not have
to be issued until needed, no matter
when the issue is authorized.

eradicate them by reducing the tariff

He thinks that would destroy the

Palisadian., 1908-04-01

One of the strange but eternal truths
of life, as associated with mans inven-
tive genius, is that many basic principles
lie dormant after discovery. Since the
disuse of the daguerreotype, made on its
old time polished silver plate, the art
of photography was developed along SO
many lines that the old process is now
virtually one of the lost arts. Even
the method of making polished silver
plates. which was not the primal part
of photographs beginning, appear an
impossible thing of accomplishments to-
day There has never been any kind
of image picture made by chemical
action of light and sensitized plates to
equal the daguerreotype, but we see
them no more, except at rare intervals.
The profession of photography to-day
knows nothing of making daguerreo-
types So far as our present day pic
ture makers are concerned, the old art
is no more.
1t is pleasure, therefore, to chronicle
the fact that Palisade is the home of
VIM. Hollinger, the one man of to-day
who has made endeavors to revive this
valuable lost art He has found diff
culties in making the plates, but is fast
getting results that are satisfactory. He
feels that he has the solution already in
his grasp.
Palisadian., 1908-04-01

A good housekeeper brings her hus-
band more wealth than an heiress.
Don't misjudge serious face for a
mean one; remember your fox always
wears what seems to be a smile
The caress of a woman whom we
love makes all our cares lighter.
What a dear, unselfish, splendid
creature is the good mother Her eyes
sparkle with a love for us that rivals all
our sweethearts'
Bachelors like to be teased over their
love affairs-nothing tickles them more.
Character will weather any panic
Brilliant are the gems that CLEAN in
the golden crown of autumn
Home is not where we hang our hat,
but where woman greets us.
Education belongs as much to the
workshop, the factory, and the counting
room as it does to the public school and
the university.
Compliment your wife often; keep up
the honeymoon. There are no sweet
hearts like married lovers.
Pure health mocks at the fashion
plate.
Sad, very sad are such people whose
happiness depends upon those who bow
to them.
Be kind to all who are old. Their
time is short, and they have fought
many battles.
