BIG FLOODS IN STATE:-Th,
heavy rains OF last week caused floods
in all parts OF the state. The Ken
lucky river was the highest In ten
years In some places. the Ohio was on
rampage again for the third time
in six weeks and bottom farms every
where were under water. 1t was a
great time for logging and taking ou.

done.

vile from all parts of the state say
that the frosts of last week did little
or no damage. In some sections
peaches were touched, but no trees
lost all their blossoms, and there Is
still every prospect of e. fine crop.
AFTER RAIDERS:-The campaign
against night riders has been going OF
full tilt this week, and there have
been a good many indictments re-
turned. The most important is that
against DR.. VIII Champion, of Lynn
County. alleged to be the leader in
three counties. He has surrendered
and given bail. Many Of the men
supposed to be lesser leaders have
also been arrested. There have been
good many threatening letters sent
to the judges and juries, but they
seem to have had no effect, for The
better class are being aroused an 4
supporting the law. There have been
fewer outrages this week, too. but
that may not prove anything. The
Law and Order League has petition
ed the Governor for an extra session,
and it is expecsed that one will be
called to deal vita this subject and
a County Unit Bill. The business of
making 1t dangerous for the riders Is
going on. Madison farmers seem to
be planting moro than usual and ere
said TO be organized and armed. and
over in Boyle the planters have put
charges of dynamite in the road, and
expect to explode them when the
riders come along.
