ABOUT STONES.

1t vas said by a distinguished
philosopher Of old, that
"A little nonsense, now and then,

and 1t would look as though Mrs.
%Pankhurst, the militant sufrragette
from over the sea, a come to our
shores for the purpose of giving us
Il r%elishable relish in that peculiar
line. In her Chicago speech of last
Friday night, as reported by the In
ter Ocean, she laid special stress on
the political effect to be produced by
throwing stones. She was particular
~ firm In the belief, we are told, that
there is q fixed relation between
throwing stones ana getting the right
to vote. She said that was the way
the agricultural laborers of England
got It. And she saw no reason why
the scheme shouldn't work in the case
of women
II is evident from her speech that
she looks forward hopefully to the
time when women viii rise up by
thousands, each with a roek in her
hand, and hurl missiles at all the men
and windows in sight. And she APP
parently thinks that hat viii settle
the whole thing.
This reduction of the problem of
getting votes to a mere matter of
throwing stones simpllfies the cam

suffragettes lots Of trouble in other
directions. why do anything else when |

THE TARIFF BILL.

President Taft forced the Con-
ferees on the tariff bill to make
concession, hence they made their
report, the House passed it and
same is now before the Senate and
will no doubt become a law this
week. Ollie James, Congressman
from Kentucky, thus speaks of it.:
The tariff bill is a wholesale
surrender of the people into the
hands of monopoly and combina-
ton. It's a brazen violation of
President Taft's promise to revise
the tariff downward in the inter-
est of the consumer. It's now 9
per cent. higher than the present
Dingley tariff law, and this does
not include the maximum provi-
sion, which will increase the rate
25 per cent. The necessities of
life, such as wooden goods, cotton
! goods, clothing, farming imple-
ments, in fact everything that
goes upon the table, in the home,
or upon the farm has been in
creased.
This bill is a triumph for trust
barons, special interest vipers and
corporate leeches which has in
tested this Capitol since the tariff
bill came up for consideration.
The bill is weighted with scandal,
clothed in deceit and bristling with
intrigue, Instead of a bill for
protection, it's a bill for plumber.
It's bill that will make paupers
of thousands in order to to make
plutocrats of a few. 1t shows the
Republican party to be the most
colossal hypocrite that political
history ever knew"

KILLED FOR UNHOLf AL
LANCE.

Near Elizabethtown, KY, on
Tuesday. July 81, Collie Hustin
shot and killed James Talbot, a
well-known farmer, and seriously,
if not fatally, wounded his own
wife with the same load of shot.
Hustin. according to his state
ment. had been out hunting, and
met Talbot and Mrs. Hustln re-
turning from nearby field. Hus-
tin fired at Talbot with shotgun.
The load struck Talbot over the
heart. killing him instantly, and
part of it entered the face ana
neck of Hustin's wife, who was
standing behind Talbot. Sheriff
Yates met Hustin on the route TO
the city to surrender. Talbot IS
survived by his wife and Hustln
has several children. Hustln was
a tenant on the farm of Talbot. "
Is it not strange that husbands
and wives will lend themselves as
servants of the devil, and bring
reproach upon innocent children!
We regret to hear of men killing
other men; but usually in cases
like this the guilty man deserves
all he gets. Some men think they
are at liberty to do anything
prompted bya depraved appetite
or passion, or for gain. We are
disposed to be charitable toward
the offending WOMAN, the partner
in such crimes. Some of them
are very slow to learn lessons.
The following is not new to some
of our readers: The man that
committeth adultery with another
mans wife, even he that commit
teth adultery with his neighbours
wife, the adulterer and the adulteE-
ess shall surely be put to death. "
We are not disposed to question
the wisdom of the law giver, how
ever much the law goes against
the inclinations Of some people:
so shall evil be put away from
Israel.
Why all this shame and folly
and heart-ache2 Why THIS decep-
ton and at times imposition upon
an unsuspestiEg wife,
Man was made for nobler asses.
If men would hear and obey the
teaching of Him who is the way,
the truth and the life, there
would be none of this.

THEY ARE HERE
WELCOMED BY OUR CITIZENS.
Work Begun On New DepOt--fdCts
About the Structure.

An increased activity and hua-
ling is on around the railroad
yards. On Monday morning ac-
tive work began for the trans
forming of that section between
Maysville and Bank streets. For

modations and appearances have
not been such as many of our citi-
zens have desired; henceforth we
will watch with interest the de-
velopmept and will be pleased with
the result: new, commodiOus
and up-to-date depot.
Early Monday morning the
writer met Mr.. A. NJ. Walkup,
of Richmond, Va. who has the

NJ. Burk, of Louisa, KY, who is
the foreman over the work, and
Mr.. l.. B. Allen, of Ashland, who

gineer in charge of this depart
ment. Mr.. Walkup and Mr..
Allen will be here as often and as
long as their services are needed.
Mr.. Burk will direct ill the edi-
flee is complete.
Mr.. Walkup says the work will
be pushed, and that he expects to
give employment to as many Mt.
Sterling men as possible.
BY their coming and stay our
city takes step forward in bust
ness enterprise and attractiveness,
and long needed facilities for
travel.
We extend to these gentlemen a
welcome to orr city, and the
cOurtesies of our office.
FACTS ABOUT THE BUILDING.
But few readers will have OPP
portunity to see drawings of the
building and as none will want to

partially satisfy.
The new depot will be located
between Maysville and Bank
streets. The buildings will be
one story, made of grey pressed
brick with Kentucky Freestone
trimmings, modern appliances and
conveniences, up-to-date.
The buildings will be in two
groups. 1st Express and Bag
gage Offices. 2nd Depot.
LOCATION.
Starting at Maysville ST., at a
distance of so feet will be the
east wall Of the 1st group facing
