A STORY OF THE FRISCO REIGN
 OF TERROR

Mrs. Fremont Older has in the cur rent McClure's a story of the San Francisco bribery graft prosecution. Mrs. Older is the wife of the manag- ing editor of the Bulletin whose claim to fame in connection with the prose- cution seemed to rest upon the cir constance that he was kidnapped or claimed to have been. Though the Bulletin was strongly on the side of the prosecution, MT. Olders part in it, so far as the news dispatches disclosed, was rather inconspicuous, but Mrs. Older, with a beautiful wifely devotion proves that he was the handspring of the whole affair.
 The article is well written after the somewhat florid style which distin- guishes some of the California news papers from those printed in other parts of the country-a suggestion of a reaching out after the unattain- able
 According to Mrs. Older the situa- tion was much worse in San Fran cisco than it seemed to be-a kind of a Reign of Terror, in which the reformers were the Girondists and the others the Montagnards. Only the Girondists instead of having their heads chopped off this time are about, iIl the opinion of Mrs. Older. to se- cure the scalps of those who occu- pied the Mountain. Altogether much information is conveyed by Mrs. Old CT which we think could have beeen obtained by no other avenue.
 Those of us who followed that story of graft and prosecution pretty closely cannot avoid surprise at having miss ed so much when we thought we were getting it all. Anyhow it is an en- tertaining story and should inspire all reformers to wish that their wives could take as much interest in their work and wield so facile a pen.
 We must observe, too. that it is well for Mrs. older that the story found a lodging place before the end of the Calhoun fiasco came.

BREATHITT COUNTY DILUTED.
 The latest scheme to establish order and peace in a region cursed by feud and bloodshed is the elimination of soil of that political division will of course remain in its place. and the people will, if they choose, remain where they are. It is only the map that is to be changed.
 The wiping out of Breathitt county is proposed by the Lexington Ga zette as a means of establishing the rule of law in place of the reign of anarchy. The process is to consist in cutting the county up into six sections and annexing one section to each of the six adjoining counties of Knott, Lee. Magoffin, Owsley. Perry and Wolfe. Thus dismembered, Breathitt would lose it's identity as a power for evil, and the fragments would be distributed, absorbed. and rendered comparatively impotent as doers and promoters of evil. A small chunk of Breathitt county. as one of fifteen or twenty townships in some other county, would be but one unit among many, and would have to submit to the will of the majority in matters of lawmaking and law observance.

Cold Water Currents Flowing Along

In the really deep sea over q thou
sand fathoms down there are we'll
marked broad currents which may be
described as rivers of very cold water
(only degrees or so above freezing
point. They flow along the deep sea
bottom and are sharply marked on
from the warmer waters above and to
the side. Their Inhabitants are differ
ent from those of the warmer water.
They are due to the melting Of the

the surface currents.
These deep currents originate In both
