JUDGE Lurton TO be Elevated.

A Washington telegram to the Rec
ord-Herald says: The death of Justic
Peckharl leaves but two Democrats on
the bench OF the Supreme Court of
the United States-Chief Justice Full
Ter and Justice White. These were
both appointees of President Cleveland
The Republican members are Justices
Day and Moody. When Justices
Harlan, Brewer, McKenna. Holmes,
Shiras. and Brown, both Republicans,
retired they were succeeded re-
spectively by both Holmes and Moody,
both of the same political faith.
There is every prospect that Presi-
dent Taft will make a departure and
do what no President has done for a
great many years and appoint to the
vacancy a member Of the opposite
political party from himself. 1t is re-
ported here that Mr. Taft long ago
made up his mind to appoint to the
first vacancy on the Supreme bench

Biz Crop Of sweetness.

It is estimated that within a rad
ius of 100 miles of Greenup there are
10000 barrels Of sorghum raised this
year. One can hardly realize that, but
it is really a close guess, as We were
told by one who is on the inside track
of the question. Sorghum is very
likely to take a fall soon, as so much
of it Is on the market. Last year the
demand for sorghum was more than
grown, hence the reason for so much
more grown than the demand. At pres
ent the price is 81 cents
and a pretty good price at
that. We have been told that
about 1000 barrels have been grown
in Greenup county this year and only
about 500 barrels Of it has beel mark

A prominent Republican of the
county was heard to remark few
days ago that continuous holding
Of office will make any party rotten.
He further said that, years ago, long
continuance in office made the Demo-
cratic party odious,and he believed the
same conditions prevailed as to the
Republican party in this county to-
day. He added that, although life
long Republican, he thought We need
a change and that he was going TO
vote for that sort of thing. Evidently
he is not alone in the stand he has
taken.

that one of the young women of that

had her friends lined UP in her behalf

The Hartford Republican says the
Democratic candidates for county Of
fees "are trying to steal march
on us by hiding their identity" The
Democratic candidates are not trying
to hide their identity, for it is well
understood who they are and of what

says: THE growing tendency to ig-
more politics in judicial races is a
good omen" Considering the condi-

not be good policy to ignore politics
in the present county race also?

SUNFLoWER PHILOSOPHY.

~
The surest way for widOwer to keep
his wfe's memory green in the neigh
borhood is to make matrimonial eyes
at another woman.
If you want to see a man who is real
ly money mad hunt up one who has
been unsuccessful a good many years,
and then begins to make money late
in life.
There is one time at least. when
stinginess is admired: the stinginess of
the girl on the program who refuses
to respond to encores.
People are becoming so impudent
that before we die we expect to hear of
an agent beginning Court proceedings
against man for refusing to buy a
set of books.
In the old days. when a man became
good and mad something came of it:
after that he got his rights for a time.
But IN these modern days people laugh
at You when you get mad.
Enlarged pictures is not habit but
a disease, Just the same as itch. mumps
and measles. 1t always takes worse
where the families are very poor.
If man has money it is usually a
sign, too, that he knows how to take
care of it; don't imagine that his mon
ey IS easy to get simply because he has
it.

The first attempt to raise ostrichcs in
Australia was made by a Mr.. Malcolm,
who in 1880 brought 100 young bras
from South Africa TO South Australia

of South Australia enacted a law which
granted to the first person who should
exhibit go ostriches more than one
year Old about 2400 acres of land suit
able for ostrich farming. The condl-
lions were satisfied by the South Aus,
tralian ostrich company, which was
founded in 1886 with a capital of $75.-

Port Augusta on Spencer bay, but in
spite of this assistance the company

When the bids for printing and bind
ing were opened at the State House
Yesterday it was found that there were
two for binding from firms located
outside the State. One of these was re-
ceived too late for consideration. The
other was apparently lower than the
bids submitted by Maine firms. 1t is
quite likely that the Slight difference
in prices would be wiped out by the
transportation charges. Even should
the bid of this concern be found to be
slightly lower than that of the State
of Maine concerns we do not believe it
should be accepted. Maine can i'll al
ford to send either her binding or her
printing out of the State to be done.
