The Law Of the Lazy Nan.

Breathes there a man with soul 50
dead,
Who never to himself hath said:
Tomorrow morning I will rise
Before the sun lights up the skies.
"I'n set this clock so it will ring
Before the birds begin to sing;
It's strident bell will me awake,
An early morning walk I'll take"
And when al an ungodly hour
Next morn, the clock with all its
power
Made noise enough to stir the dead
And awoke the man upon the bed
3reathes there a man, I now repeat,
Who wouldn't churek it in the street,
And back into the bed then leap,
And with a sigh go off to sleepf

Frankfort, KY, Special-Amid
scenes Of widest excitement, former
Governor William O'Connell Brad
ley, Republican, was elected United
States Senator to succeed James B.
McCreary- Bradley's term Of six
years will begin March 4th, 1909. He
receiy ed 81 votes, four Of which were
cast BY Democrats opposed to for
mer Governor Beckham, leading
Democratic candidate for senator,
who was endorsed for the office at
the State primary.
The four Democrats were surround
ed by party friends and urged to
withdraw their support from Bradley
and re-elact Senator James McCreary
or any Democrat they might name
but the four men declared that the
proposal came too late. The Demo
cratic leaders even promised a caucus
to select candidate, to which the
name Of Bcckhaln would not BIO pre-
sented.
The ballot as recast resulted as
follows:
Bradley Ga; Beckham Is; James
10; McCreary 10; Mayo 5; Allen 2;
Ellison l; Stanley /; Blackburn /;
Cantrell /; Ellis /; Cammack L;
Sullivan l McElroy l; Hunt 1.
In speech accepting his election
Bradley promised to use every effort
as senator to procure the repeal Of
the 6-cent tax OH tobacco.
Representative Lillard was the only
one of the four Democrats to explain
bis vote for Bradley. He said he
thought the time had come to throw
off party shackles and to break up
the machine.' and, although he did
support the Democratic ticket for 40
wears, he believed his vote for Brad
ley "was the best Democratic vote
be ever cast"
The Republicans voted solidly for
Bradley, the caucus nominee. 1t had
been held from the beginning Of the
contest lover six weeks ago) that a
majority of a quorum was sufficient
for an election, and with 1875 mem
bers present it reuired 81 votes to
elect. The votes of the four Demo-
Gratis who have steadily refused to
vote for former Governor Beckham

Winner by Four Votes.
Bradley received "a votes to 60 for
Beckham1 l for Allen and | for
Blackburn. The Democrats left the
hal in an attempt to break the vote,
but later returned and the vote was
ordered ratified.
Senators McNutt and Charlton and
REPRESENTATIVE Meuller, Of Louis
vile. and Representative Lillard, Of
Bowie. were the Democrats who
voted with the Republicans for
Bradley.
A scene Of the widest excitement
prevailed before the result was an
nounced, the Democrats demanding q
recapitulation. Beckham came on
the floor and RELEASED the Democrats
from their primary nomination
pledge. Many Democrats sought to
change their votes the majority

REDUCE TARIFF,
REVENUE
INCREASE

Owing to the fact, that there is a
deficit of $58. 100000, in the United
States treasury, some have persuaded
themselves to believe that the revenue
of the government would be decreased
to great extent by a revision of our
present tariff. They apparently lose
sight of the fact, that there are many
articles in the SCHEDULE so high that
the rate is prohibitive and We're they
to be reduced to reasonable figure, the
revenues Of the government would be
increased by an income on importa-
tions. Then there are articles on the
schedule which might be increased
without injury to anyone, for the rich,
who purchase such articles for personal
adornment or to beautify their homes:
would pay the import duty, were it
six times higher than at the present
time. The trouble, is and has been
from the start, the tariff was so
framed as to benefit the home manu-
facturers who have grown enormously
rich because of prohibitve tariff and
the ri=h have been favored. If any
one has any doubts, let them send to
Washington. and get copy of the
Dingley tariff law and see how un-
equally the import duties were laid,
and then figure it out as to what ex-
tent they have been benefited by the
existing tariff. 1t should have been
revised long ago, and would have
been, had not the interests" power
