Red Eyed Kentucky Chicken.

George Iadenburger of Dover, Ky.
has a sure enough curiosity in the pos
session of red eyed chicken. 1t is
not the eyelids that are red. as might
be inferred, but the eyes themselves
The eyeballs nre not bloodshot or in

red, while the sights are also red. but
Of darker hue So transparent, are
the eyes that when the head of the
chicken is held between ones vision
and the sun it appears as If the sun
We're shining through from one eye to
the other and the head lighted up in-
side. The chick is as healthy and
lively and can see as perfectly as any

Not the least striking feature Of the
address was the declaration that Vice
Presidential Nominee Sherman invad-
ed Wall street for political contribu-
lions In 1906, when Sherman was
chairman of the congressional com
mittee.
Makes silly Charge.
Evidence is not wanting" he said,
"of the set purpose of the leaders of
the republican party to continue their
plan of securing funds from those
who are interested either in legisla-
ton or the non-enforcement of the
law"
When Hartman Met Roosevelt.
Parker charged the republicans with
gross extravaganza in federal admin
istration. Parker also told Of the
meeting between Hartman and Roose-
welt at Washington, when the presi-
dent is alleged to have asked Harri-
mans assistance in raising funds.
National Politics.
The platform devotes considerable
attention to national politics n the
candidates, heartily endorsing the ma
tional platform and the national nom
inees, paying a glowing tribute to
both Bryan and Kern.
Republicans Denounced.
In state issues the platform de-
nounces the republican governors
since the administration of David B.
Hill, and says that the government of
the state by commissions is only an
other evidence Of the republican pol
icy of Capitalization and is in direct
opposition to the principles Of the
government Of the people.
Chanler Nominated.
After the adoption of the platform
Chanler was nominated by acclama-
ton for governor and Dix by acclama-
ton for lieutenant governor. Secre-
tary of State Whalen, Comptroller
Glynn and Treasurer Hauser were all
nominated by reclamation.
