Squandering Fortune.

New York. April 2.-Miss Addie
Douglass Mackenzie. eldest daughter
of Mrs. Charlotte X. Mackenzie. who
inherited $1.0OO,0O0 upon the death
OF her husband. a sewing machine

the supreme court here to prevent
her mother from squandering any OF

complete control.
Mrs. Mackenzie disappeared mys-
teriously from her beautiful home ou
West Eighty-ninth street two weeks

sought in vain to find out the loca-
tion of their mother.
Miss Mackenzie, in her petition TO
the court, alleges that her mother
has been acting peculiarly for sev-
eral weeks. She asks that the mental
status of Mrs. Mackenzie be deter
mined judicially as soon as possible
in order that a committee may be

THE WHITE SLAVERS.

A man in New York secured a list
OF graduates from a business college
and sent them invitations to call at
his apartments, where they would
find employment. One girl was
choked to death there and her body
stuffed up a chimney and set on fire.
Police are running down his record,
expecting to identify him with the
white slave" trade.
"Uplift" magazines have had much
to say about the white slave" trade
as an organized business connected
with steamship lines. Deliciously,
humorously good people wonder how
the white slave trade can be stopped.
Any business man will confess that
his trade will be ruined, II you stop
the demand for his goods, and the
same course of reasoning would nat
urally lead us to suspect that the
"white slave" trade will be stopped,
whenever the brothel, the only insti-
tuition which creates a demand for
white slaves" is closed. Wherever
the brothel flourishes, rest assured,
there the white slave trade flour
ishes, and 1t is not an import trade.

local sources. not Paris or Roumania.

McCreary Most Available.

On the first page today we print
an editorial from the Mayfield Mes
senger under the title "The Avail
able Man." urging upon the Demo-
cratic voters of the state the claims
OF Senator James b. McCreary for
governor. One purpose we have in
printing this article from the Mes
senger is to show the trend of state
politics. another is that we are pre-
pared to indorse much tht is said by
the Messenger. We do not propose
at this time to commit the Gazette
to the unqualified support Of Senator
McCreary, for 1t is early yet to an
nounce choice, and conditions
might arise within the year that still
intervenes before the nominating
convention or primary, which would
lead us to give our support to some
other man, II man more nearly
representing our views on state ques-
tions should come actively into the
race. However. on the face of 1t to-
day, we will say candidly that SEN
ator McCreary possesses points OF
strength and availability which no
other man that we can think of pos

miles from the earth. The line OF
the earth's transit through the tail
of the comet is not direct, but is In
an angular direction throughout the
cometory appendage. The gaseous
electro-chemical action of the visible
cometary photo-appendage of the
earth's atmosphere will be felt for
several days after the earth has
passedNthe visible outer boundary of
the said cometary photo-appendage.
"The invisible vibratory waves OF

Mr.. Palmer calculated that even If
the tail of the comet is 10000

FIVE days. as asserted by DR.. Ever

taken by DR.. Everette, Mr.. Palmer

WILL 1T BE MCREARY?

Has Ollie James been stung by
the senatorial bee? This question is
Important in relation to Henry Law
rence's recent success in committing
the First district press to Hon.
James b. McCreary for the Demo-
cratic nomination for governor. III
Ollie has been stung, he will be in
sensible to every political feeling,
excepting possible irritation in the
region of the sting whenever any
First district man is mentioned for
governor. He will not be anxious
for too many aspirants for office
from western Kentucky. In this he
will have the support OF all the
minor politicians. who hope to profit
| by its retirement from the First dis
trict seat in the lower house of con-
gress. II the McCreary men are in
earnest and ollie really wishes to be
United States senator. everybody
with an ak to grind may be expected
to LAY on the governorship and
there will be no organized opposition
to McCreary.
That Lawrence has succeeded
reasonably well in his mission can
not be gainsayed. Graves. Christian.
Trigg, Marshall, Livingston and
Hickman newspapers have come out
unequivocally for McCreary. The
McCracken county organization,
which is but an adjunct of the Louis
vile gang, with its organ, will be for
johnson, or whoever Louisville sug-
gests, and 1t has some sort of hold
on the First district organization
through the committee. 1t has man
aged to manipulate things in this
county and senatorial district on the
floor OF conventions and in the pri-
maries to the accomplishment of its
fell designs. though at some cost of
party enthusiasm and loyalty. How
ever. they figure that the Gibraltar
majority is inexhaustible, a conclus-
ion, which Galloway county voters
might dispute.
1t is probable that former Gov
ernor Beckham, naturally opposed to
the Louisville gang, which killed his
budding senatorial career, will back
the strongest candidate against the
machine man. The fight against the
Louisville gang is peculiarly a news
paper fight: Beckham has one, at
Frankfort; Lawrence has one, at
Cadiz; Landrum has one, at Smith
land; Hager has one at Owensboro;
Hines has one at Bowling Green, and
there are a half dozen other organs
scattered over the state in the hands
of former influential Democratic pol
iticians. who are not in accord with
the present party regime. They are
arousing the sentiment of the people
throughout the state, each newspa-
per the nucleus of an opposition
organization. that may possess cohe-
sive qualities, when they reach the
state convention, sufficient to form
the balance Of power. ..
There will be no state primary;
because the ring appreciates the
strength of this local sentiment. A
convention at Louisville of the Music
Hall variety will be most to the lik-
ing of the ring. II will be interest
ing TO watch the clash for control OF
the First. Ollie James probably will
be too busy with the Ballinger COM
mittee to take any part In the Ken
lucky gubernatorial fight.

Amend Corporation Tax.

Washington. April 2.-That the
corporation tax law VIII be amended
to restrict the operation OF the pub
lieity feature was virtually assured
when the house slightly amended the
provision previously adopted by the
senate for that purpose.
As passed by the house the law
provides that 'all corporation tax re-
tums shall be open for inspection
only upon the order OF the president
under the rules and regulations pre-
scribed by the secretary OF the treas
ury. approved by the president" As
previously provided by the senate
such corporation tax reports were "to
be made public when called for by a
resolution of the senate or house or
ordered OF the president when he
deemed Il for the publlc interest"
The senate and house conferees
will frame an amendment TO meet
the views OF both branches.

Stunning the entire session. Fitzgerald.
