The best way to reduce the postal
deficit would be to reduce the ann
cunt paid 70 railroads for mail trans
portation, instead of taxing the week
" newspapers and weekly magazines
for this purpose. The entire deficit
could be made up by shaving the
mail carrying contracts down 10 a
fair basis.

1.-THE Democrats have never
charged anything against
Republican administration on-
ly what was justified by the.
facts. The matters Mention
ed being equitable. there will
be no com Dlaint from Demo-
cratic quarters. But how about
that $3.50, 1885 OF the States
money which Gov. Wilson
recklessly spent on oldiers
for night rider troubles.
Ought not that be charged up
to a Republican administra-
tion?"
Have the Democrats never charg-
ed anything against the Republican adj
ministradOn except what it created
The Herald ought or should know
that when the present Republican
administration came into power there
was something like 100000 out
standing claims all of which We're
presented within the first three months
of the new administration for pay
ment. Besides the indebtedness which
had been created for the new State
Capitol. A State administration which
does not have with It the legislative
department is powerless 10 run the
State in debt, except as it may abuse
in some instances powers already
granted. If Gov. Wilson has ex-
ceeded authority granted him under
the law, why not impeach him?
You have the power at hand. 1t is
well for you to remember that when
governor Wilson was sworn in the
troops had already been ordered out
by Governor Beckham in the night
rider troubles and a company WIS
stationed at Hopkinsville. As to
whether or not he has used more
soldiers than were Necessary we are
unable to say. The writer does not
believe in the use of State militia in
any Instance, except whore The local
authorizes are absolutely unable 10
preserve order. We believe that law
lassness which existed in some plac-
es in Kentucky las year was largely
exaggerated and that the Governor was
doubtless deceived concerning the
real conditions, and we further be-
lieve that the whole trouble which
did exist might have been settled
without the use of a single soldier
and We believe further that the use
of the soldiers did not prevent the
loss of life or the destruction of Il
dollars worth of property.

A Republican Measure, Too.

Golfers Weekly, a publication
that supported Mr.. Taft for the presi-
dency, has this to say of the Taft rail
road bill: "A United States Senator
who is not Democrat and who was
not an inSurgent preceding the con-
sideration of the railroad bill spoke
thus in private conversation: The
man who drafted that railroad bill in
the form in which it was first intro
duced in the Senate is the greatest
traitor to the American people since
Aaron Burr" He referred to the
cunning intent necessarily back of
the subtlety with which the bill was
drawn to give the railroads all they
want under the appearance of SUBJ
jecting them TO restrictions. 1t re-
mains to be said that the Senator is
one of the best five lawyers in the
body and has a habit of intellectual
accuracy which abhors hyperbole. "

Corn Dying in This Vicinity.

Several. farmers in this section are
fearful that the corn crop will be a
failure this season, no matter how IA
vorlble the weather may be from
now on.
In some fields the corn, some of it
a foot high, is turning red and dying.
This condition is caused by the mil
lions of small bugs, termed corn
lice by some farmers, which have
invaded the fields. These bugs, very
small in size but great in number, be-
gin work on the tap root of the corn
plant and literally sap the substance
from the stalk, thereby killing it,
John Garrison, who made an inves-
tigation of the condition of his corn
crop, says these pests are working ON
half the corn in his field, and that
some of his neighbors are even worse
off.
1t is sincerely hoped that this con-
dition prevails only over small
area, and that at least part of crop
may yet be realized, from what now
looks to many as the poorest prospect
in years. R. Ii. Review.

Don't Mail Order Hats.

DO you have much competition from
mail order hats Mrs. A. B. Price.
the milliner,. was asked the other day.
No. she replied, we don't have
much trouble with that competition. In
the first place you can't tell much a
bout how hat will look by seeing a
picture of it. And then after woman
sees the actual hat itself she can't tell
how it It is going to look on her. Very
often lady will come in here and
nick out a hat which she thinks is pretty
aud the very thing she wants, but
when she tries It On she finds It doesn't
become her, while one that she doesn' t
particularly admire in the showcase is
often found to be the one best suited
to her particular style, A woman just
simply cant tell how hat will look On
her until she tries it on, and for that
reason mail order competition bothers
us very little. Once in while lady
tries it, but once is about all.''
Mrs. Price is now located in hel
building on the east side of the square
and has her shop arranged not only to
show her elegant stock of Spring hats
but also to afford the ladies every op-
portunity to Try on the hats and see
how they look before they buy.
