THIRp DISTRICT PoLITICs.

A Hopkinsville paper claims to
have a tip that the Law and Order
League (anti-night rider) has formed
coalition with the Republicans and
will put out ticket in the Third Judi
cial district with Attorney General
James Breathitt for circuit judge and
Judge A. ]. G. Wells, OF Galloway,
for commonwealth attorney, against
the Democratic ticket which will be
nominated next Saturday at pri-
mary election. Judge Wells Is now
a member of the board OF control OF
state charitable institutions, says the
Clinton Gazette.
That's a wrong tip, we think. In
the first place, we are told. Attorney
General Breathitt has been sounded
on the subject and declines to seek
any other office until his term ex-
pires. In the second place Hon. A. J..
G.. Wells is well pleased with his po-
sition on the state board. and his
friends won the nominations on the
Democratic ticket in Galloway county.
II is not likely that he would run on
ticket. opposing them. Moreover,
the Republicans Of Galloway county,
as we understand it. have the sympa-
thy OF that element OF Democracy,
which opposes the nominees Of Judge
Wells faction and are basing their
hopes Of success on that fact So. 1t
is not likely that they would have
anything to do with Judge Wells.
OF course, politics causes men to
loop the loop frequently, and the sit
uation may have shifted since we ac-
qulred the foregoing information;
but we do not anticipate any Repub-
lican nominations in the Third dis
trict, regardless of its desirability.

FOOTBALL
BEING TALKED ABOUT MANY
MONTHS IN ADVANCE.
Entry OF Big Boston Player Starts
Enthusiasts to Gossiping
Again.

Although the baseball season has
just begun, there is a strong under
current of football gossip going the
rounds of the athletic enthusiasts.
The respects are for some fast foot
ball teams for Paducah next year
and an all-star team may be organ
lied and games with Louisville and
st. Louis teams secured. From the
present outlook the prospect is so
good that it is not a pipe dream.
Within Paducah's gates are sew
eral players of ability. Mr.. II. f.
Kersburg, of Boston, is an employe
of the Paducah Traction company
and il in the city next autumn has
consented to help coach the team of
the Chess, Checker & Whist club.
Mr. Kersburg played on the Harvard
football team in 1906 and 1906 and
last year was coach for the line
men. He is a strappIng big fellow
and played right guard. He is well
versed in the open style of play, and
has many of the latest plays known
10 tOOJOdll coaches.
Mr.. V. p. Kennard, who gained
much distinction on the gridiron last
fall by drop-kicking and winning the
game from Yale, is a college chum
of Mr.. Kersburg. and will visit him
this year. Mr.. Kersburg will en-
deavor to have him come in football
season, and Mr.. Kennard will be
able to show the Paducah back field
players some of the best ways OF
handling the pigskin.
The Chess, Checker & Whist club
is preparing for better team than
ever next season, while the players
of the Paducah Athletic club are
boasting of how strong their eleven
will be. The brawny butchers say
they have several players under
cover, who will surprise their OPP
pOnents. High school will have a
fast team. as much of the old team
will be left and the holes can be
filled with second team players, who
showed UP in good style last season.
The employees of the Paducah Light
& Power company may organize a
team and make the fourth in the
city. Among the employees are many
athletes. and team could be organ
lied that would make teams push to
win.
1t is encouraging TO see the foot
ball talk started so early, as II will
leave much time for preparation.
Last year the attendance at the foot
ball games was large, and next year
with the proper management the
sport should become more popular.

RATS.

According to the biological expert
OF the department of agriculture.
rats eat up property to the value of
500. 900 900 every year Paducah,
like most cities. is undermined by
rats, and every merchant realizes the
part he contributes to this enormous
sum total Rats were once our
scavengers; but the densely popu-
lated municipalities cannot depend on
rodents 10 look after the scavenger
service. People dwelling 50 near to-
gether must keep their premises
clean. Rats are common carriers OF
disease breeding germs, and are
wholly unnecessary in the economy
of any modern community. 1t is es-
timated that one pair of rats in three
years will produce line of descend
ants aggregating 10000. Thus do
they propagate and rob us while we
do nothing TO stop them
