Robert +. Woods, the urbane post
master, used to live in Cloverport, and
Cloverport is exceedingly proud of
that fact. 1t goes without saying
that Mr.. Woods is, too. During the
Lincoln celebration at Hodgensville
last week Mr.. Woods was called on to
present handsome cane to President
Roosevelt on behalf of the postmas-
tiers of the State, and a representa-
tive of a Breckenridge-county paper
aught him in the act. He recorded
the event thus:
"Just as the President started to
get in his carriage Bob Woods step
ped up and caned the President for
the Kentucky postmasters. Teddy
smiled and showed his lower teeth,
and Bob smiled and showed his upper
teeth.
Cloverport evidently is preparing
to boost the postmaster as the rival
of the strenuous and "dee-lighted"
one.-Courier Journal.

LABOR'S RIGHT

Labor unions have come to
stay. They may do untold good.
They have accomplished much.
Their leaders have been increns-
ingly wise and unselfish.
Harm instead Of good will he
done by the Imprisonment of
prominent officers. These men
have been too long before the

as conservative men to be con-

BOILER EXPLOSION

CAV O.co y OAO0n = nV Su"y i"ohH-
ing the boiler attached to the
sheep dipping plant near J. Frank
Goad's residence eight miles
northeast of town exploded, des-
troying the plant and killing the
engineer, Nelson A. Groat, literally
shattering his body to pieces.
Mr.. Goad had just started from
his house for the plant when the
explosion took place No one was
at the plant except Mr. Groat and
just how the accident happened
can only be conjectured and that
is by the probability of letting cold
water into an over heated boiler.
The explosion was distinctly felt
in Monte Vista as if it were am
earthquake.
Coroner Brrce held an inquest
but no facts were bought out ex-
cept as above.
Mr. Groat was thorough me-
chanic and knew every part of
boiler and is supposed to have
been deceived by the foam which
indicated water in the boiler. He
had been in charge of the boiler
more or less during the past three
years.
The plant was being gotten
ready for dipping some lambs.
Mr.. Groat was inclined to spend
a good deal Of his time along the
line of inventions with some sue
cess. He was . single man of
about 35 years 1t nge, has step
mother in South Dakota and
brother and astpter He carried
an Insurance. of 1000 in favor of
his sister.
The body will be buried Sunday
ut the Monte Vista cemetery by

which order deceased was a
member.
WEsTERNER FOR TAFT CABINET
The secretary Of the interior in
the Taft cabine, will he Richard
A. Ballinger of the state Of Wash
ington according to semi-otiicial
gossip. 1t has been asserted that
much pressure is being brought to
bear on Taft to give the place to
William Loeb.
Mr.. Ballinger at Chicago sought
to hold the far West in line on the
anti-injunction plank and some
other features Of the platform
which were considered absolutely
essential by Taft. He was sue
cessful in this.
He was appointed commissioner
of the general land Office about
three years ago He was supposed
to he conversant with the opera
tions Of land and timber thieves in
all the western sections, aud he
was put there to clean up that
branch Of the public service. When
the work was completed he retired.
1t will be remembered that Mr..
Ballinger was in Denver last sum
ner and did much to clean up the
land frauds in the great west

empire. This magnificent boulevard
Is 1913 feet In width, and under the
shade of Its lime trees the Berliners
have meeting place which Is equal
IN architectural beauty TO any in Eu'

magnificent hotels, restaurants and
palaces. At the east end of Unter den
Linden, where 1t enters upon the Opera
House platz. stands the magnificent
monument Of FrederlcS the Great,
which is worthy Of the real founder
Of United Germany. To the right OF
this monument is the palace Of the
Emperor William l., now occupied by
Prince Heinrich. The north side OF
the Opera platz is occupied by the
buildings Of the University Of Berlin,
and next to it stands the Royal libra
~, which rivals that at the British
