The Kansas City Star says: AT
tention has already been called to
the fact that the next president will
have appointments to make to the
supreme court. That the majority of
the justices may change in the next
four years has not, however been
generally understood Justices are
permitted to retire at the age of 20
on full pay, OF the nine members of
the court. five are now above 10
and one will attain that age before

lows: Chief Justice Fuller 75 Justice
Harlan, u.s. Justice White, 73; Just

president may therefore determine
the tendencies of the supreme court

is concerned. but toward certain

Now they are quarreling over the
authorship oil Little Drops of

"The announcement of the death of
the author of the jingle beginning

has not been generally known. Even
now we have doubts as 10 Mrs.
! Carney's claim to authorship of the
| first stanza of her moral poem. One
of the stories is that she wrote it off
without thinking, as a stenographic
exercise, and afterwards added the
other utterly commonplace stanzas
Not only is the authorship of the
poem claimed for Mrs. Carney by
her friends. but the date of its COM
position is announced as 1916. Does
it seem possible that the people who
lived before 1916 did not know Lit

the comedian did not learn it in the
nursery? 1t has the juveniity. the
utter simplicity of folk lore. 1t seems
to have been handed down from the
ages. Yet we are asked to believe
that Boston primary school teacher
wrote it with no intent to perpetuate
it, when she was twenty-five years
old and studying shorthand, that it
came to her all of sudden Is it
not fairer inference that she had
heard the jingle in her infancy, and,
finding 1t new to the Bostonians of
her vicinage, was tempted to elabor-
ate it? Shakespeare, Spenser and the
other great ones thus adapted the
unidentifable trifles of their era"

AS WELL KNOW THE TRUTH.

Evidences are multiplying every day
which show beyond doubt, 1t seems
to us that Mr.. Taft cannot be elected
President on the Republican ticket.
those who are determined to force the
this out, but We feel that We owe 1t
to our party in Ohio county and the
fourth Congressional district. II
those who are determined to point the
candidacy of the Secretary of war up
on the party succeed and defeat comes
We are not going to suffer the SMALL
est part OF the responsibility placed
at our door. If he is nominated Mr..
Taft will lose Kentucky by 10000
majority. His attitude toward the
negro soldiers, and toward organi-
zed labor, will not only embarrass us
in the present race, but will render
doubtful many Kentucky Republican
counties in the election of county Of
ficers next year.
In order that our readers may know
the pOStllOu WHICH OIbdulLtu ldUOi
is taking toward the Taft candidacy
we reproduce labor resolutions adop-
ted by the Washington Central Labor
Union, unanimously, and which ex-
plains the method to be followed in
arousing labor sentiment against the
secretary of war:
Whereas, An election is to take
place for delegates to both the Re-
publican and Democratic conventions.
Whereas, Labor is opposed to Will
liam H. Taft, Secretary of War fol-
the presidency; be it
Resolved, That the president of the
Central Labor Union appoint a commit
tee of three to secure the written
promise of candidates as delegates tc
the Republican and Democratic con.
ventions that they will not vote for
any candidate for the Presidency who
Is opposed to organized labor.

Mo-, for their preliminary training in

enlisted.
The Owensboro recruiting station is
doing a record breaking business at
present. "a men we're accepted during
the month of February, last. After
carefully considering the various
statements which have appeared con-
corning the increase of enlistments
are stimulated by hte prospects OF
Congress granting the much needed
increase OF pay. Many experienced
soldiers are only re-enlisting also up
on the belief that the Increase of pay
will be granted. The present depres-
sion in the labor market and the win
ter season have very little to do with
enlistments.
