more precise. This new cure is main
ly matter of mental discipline and
to take it one need not go into exile
or even drop ones worldly affairs. In
! this novel course of personal treat
ment there is much excellent common
sense in some of the rules.
Taking the peace cure begins with
your meals. You must eat slowly and
think pleasant thoughts. You will
not need a great deal of food, for the
food you eat nourishes you. You sit
down at the table, eat slowly, relax
your muscles, clear your mind, thinl,
only of your food and grow peaceful
in contemplation.
The woman who takes the peace cure
begins with nerve relaxation.
She forces her lips to smile.
She orders her hands 10 lie still in
her lap.
She tits back Der head until the CEN
ter of gravity is reached and the head
supports itself naturally upon the mus

She places both feet upon the floor
and keeps them there.
She rests her back against some
thing, so that she is comfortable.
Then she thinks pleasant thoughts.
The peace curists believe that the
first hour of the day is the most inn

thoughts for the coming day, your tenn

itself, depend upon your waking
thoughts" is what they teach, and
they add that very few persons have
any idea of the extent to which the
day is governed by the waking
thoughts. Your waking thoughts con-

TAFT HEADQUARTERS ARE
NOW OPEN IN HENDERSON

Henderson. Ky, March 26.-Taft
headquarters have been opened in the
Rankin building here under the
charge of Col. S. w. Wheeler. a
prominent Elk and one of the most
popular citizens of Henderson. The
headquarters are directly across the
street from the court house, and in
day have become very popular with
residents of both this city and county.
In fact there have been so many more
callers than Col. Wheeler expected
that he believes he will have to brins
or additional "paraphernal!a for
wholesale initiation into the sound
doctrines of Taft'sm." Taft argh-
ments in both broken and unbroken
doses viii be distributed within few
days. and the resolution of the Taft
club to carry the Second district for
Taft is expected to be made even
easier.
Col. Wheeler, in charge of the head
quarters, is the father-in-law of Liv-
liagston Mccartney, superintendent OF
city schools. and has a large personal
following. He states that the most
surprising thing he has noticed thus
far since his first plunge into politics
is the number of Democrats who sneak
abound to admire Tafts picture and
talk of his virtues. He says that sew
eraI prominent Democrats have as
.urad hin, that " n comes To "A choice
between Taft and Bryan he may pub
Il.sh their names as Taft men.
II is understood that the Fairbanks
men are trying to get some one to
take charge of a Fairbanks dispen-
sary here also.

neal to the courts This kind OF legis-
llaiion the supreme court emphatlcally
spndemhs. Its decision in this case
Indicates what its decision is likely to
be when It shall pass on the validity
of the section of the railroad law
which requires roads to get rid OF
heir coal properties by next May.
The penlties for disobedience are so
heavy that the roads affected by the
law have been questioning whether. II
would be safe for them to take the
| risk of disputing its constitutionality
The attorney-general of Minnesota
and Justice Harlan in his dissenting
opinion see in the decision of the
court a deprivation of the state OF
OF powers which the constitution gives
It and an assertion of the right OF
Inferior federal courts to take charge
OF state affairs. This is reading into
the opinion of the court a great deal
which is not there. 1t is an assump-
ton that certain things may be done
which the court says explicitly can
not be done. The decision simply is
that the owners of railroad property
are entitled to equal protection from
the laws and the courts with the own
ers of all other property; that the
courts should at all times be open to
them as to others; and that a law
which closes the courts to them Is in
valid.
There Is nothing in the decision
which estops the state of Minnesota
from prescribing railroad rates. Let
il do so in proper manner, so that
the question whether they are just or
unjust can get into the courts. As
the justice says, 1t would be proper
subject for judicial inquiry whether
trey were high enough to permit of at
least some return upon the invest
ment. If not. they would be Illegal.
One of the contentious of the rail-
road lawyers IN the Minnesota case
is that a state has no right TO regu-
late interstate rates and commerce.
They argued that such regulation nee
ossarily affected interstate rates anu
commerce, which are subject TO fed
cral control. and thus encroached on
the domain of the national govern
ment The supreme court refused to
pass on the merits of this proposition.
but Justice Peckham says, in his opin7
ion. 1.-THE question is not, at any rate.
frivolous" Doubtless the serious
question Will be presented again in
such way that the supreme court
will have to meet 1t squarely. AS yet
t. has gone no further than TO say
that a state must not be guilty of in
Justice in the regulation of interstate
commerce.

Destroy Beds.

Lawrenceburg, Ky, March &c
The tobacco situation in Anderson
county has assumed critical condi-
ton and much fear is entertained by
those who intend to raise crop this
season. Ben Franklin, of Greensboro,
president of the Anderson County
Equity association, who lives ten
miles west OF this city, has received a
notice that in the event that any beds
are scraped, stock killed or damage
done TO any grower that he will be
held personally responsible and hang
ed to the highest telephone pole in
that section. Many farmers who have
already burned tobacco beds have
been apprehensive, destroyed their
beds and notified the surrounding
country that they will not raise crop
OF tobacco.

NIGHT RIDERS AND THE PRESS.
Mistakes are made frequently, in
the hurriedly collected details of night
rider raids, particularly from over
excited witnesses, but We will be
sworn there has been nos eSaggera-
ton OF conditions that battle the i'm
agination. Suppressing the news Is
the suggestion of two classes of peo-
pie, the guilty parties and the human
Jelly fish, whose inclination Is to adapt
himself to conditions. bad as they are,
In preference , to undertaking the
labor of correcting them. The last
named says "S-hh. You'll give us a
bad reputation To them we say,
not the newspapers, but the night
riders are giving us a bad name.
When there Is smallpox in the
town, The thing to do is quarantine
and stamp out the smallpox, and then
go and show yourselves to the high
priest of popular government, the
press. and say, 1--WE are clean" Don I
devote your attention TO trying TO
hide the smallpox from visitors. The
germs will get out in spite of you.
If this evil of night riding. destruc-
ton and murder. is summary ended
L, will be through the agency of a
free press. 1t has been manifested
that the people in the night rider
section can not be depended on to
stamp 1t out. The moral pressure
must come from the outside.
This is no time to worry about the
liberty of the press. 1t is time to
stop night riding.

by the constitution. Before the law
he stands on an equal footing With the
strikers. His BUSINESS must be his
own and his right to appeal to the
public for patronage must be pre-
served Otherwise, sympathetic
strike" or boycott could be declared
against anybody on any sort OF pre-
| text. and the whole community would
be at the mercy Of, not laborlng
men, but professional labor leaders,
the very power thus thrust into their
hands would tempt them to WELD it
for their personal gain, to violate the
trust imposed on them, and II would
in the end wreck the very organiza'
tions entrusted to their keeping In
such matters of public policy as these,
the interest and welfare of the labor
ing man lie along with the interest
and welfare of the business and pro-
fesslonal man. No discrimination be-
tween citizens as classes must be rec
ognized by our government, We have
enough of strife and class distinction
now, Heaven knows.
The amelioration of the severity OF
the injunction, the relief of the labor
unions from the operation of the anti
trust law, the employers liability act,
and the official recognition Of labor
unions as legitimate combinations are
sufficient to enable the unions to do
all 1t is possible for them to do for
the welfare of their own members,
and stamp this administration as
friendly to labor.
