responsible for the lynching.
Obviously this is untrue the re.
sort of the special pleader and
intended as a foil or protection
for the real culprits, the men
whose disregard of the county
option law, not only unchecked
but connived at by the officers OF
the law, made them bold to dc
murder and hope for the same
protection in the one case as in
the other. 1t is simply the legi-
mate fruit of the whisky bust
ness. A business which has al
ways and everywhere defied legal
restraints however imposed,
openly, as in Newark, under the
silent protection of its officers, or
secretly, as in many othenplaces,
under the same conditions. The
action of the Governor is a dis
tinct condemnation of Newark s
official magistrates. Common
Pleas Judge, Charles Stewart,
charges that Newark, "has for
years been in the hands of law
breakers" and the statement
will not be questioned except by
the law-breakers. Such out
bursts of criminality do not fruit
and flower in an hour, but must
be preceded by a season of plant
ing and growth under favorable
environment, a condition furnish
ed by the lax enforcement of the
law. There is no safety in any
community where violations of
law are winked at and allowed
to pass unpublished. From time
immemorial every good cause has
had its sacrifices of human life

PerryilIe Hen with a Taste for
Jewelry.

The highest price hen in Ken
lucky was in PerryvilIe last
week at the home of the Rev.
William Overstreet. For just
one hour she was worth exactly
$500. Then the market for the
stock of this particular hen
broke as they say in the buck
ct shop, and at one stroke, fell
$500 which, so far as can be
learned, is a record for Perry
vile. The hen swallowed a
$500 diamond ring belonging to
Mrs, Overstreet. The ring, with
others less valuable, was lying
on a table on the back porch of
the Overstreet house. The old
hen looked the jewels, over, and
with the eye of a connoisseur
and the taste of a Savarin, pick
ed out the real thing and swal-
lowed it. There was hue and
cry when the loss was discover
ed. All the hens were under
suspicion, and Mr.. Overstreet
started an investigation. The
fourth hen he picked up proved
to be the cupit.
He could feel the ring in his
craw. Mrs. Overstreet with her
scissor solved the problem. She
cut hole in the craw, took out
the ring, sewed the craw up
again and the hen is as we'll now
as she ever was before. Dan

Judge O'Rear is said to realize
that the Republicans are going
to have the fight of their lives in
the next Governors race, even
if they have, a chance to win.
This shows that Judge O'Rear is
in touch with the people and is
an astute and wise political lead
er. The Republicans have prac-
tically no chance to win and
State officials and employees in
the Capitol concede this to be
true. 1t is only the Democrats
who think the Republicans have
a chance and it is just as we'll
for them to think so for it will
make the Democrats work hard

GOV. McGREARY
Once Called Out the Malta TO pre-
vent a Slugsins Contest.

when l was Governor Of
Kentucky in 1879 had quite &
little experience in the prize
fighting game myself" said ex'
Governor James B. McCreary tt
Cincinnati reporter, while dis.
cussing the Jeffries Johnson
fight. Some New York sports
thought that as Kentucky was
known as the dark and bloody
ground that it would do for a
prize fight. They came to Gin
cinnati and chartered a couple
of special trains and went 40
miles back of Newport. | had
heard of the proposed fight, and
/ sent a train loaded with militia
to stop it. Goss and Allen, the
two best men of that day, had
started a finish fight with bare
nuckles in a ring that had been
staked in an open field. The men
had been fighting about three
minutes when the militia, which
| had sent from Frankfort ar
rived. The sports were given
three minutes to leave and get
out of the state. They packed
up their rig and left. Lieutenant
Robbins, who was in charge of
the militia, thought they were on
their way out of the state and
started back to Frankfort. Later
I was informed by wire that
the men had located about Is
miles from Covington, and were
fighting. 1t was impossible to
stop the fight this time, so |
wired the Mayors of Newport
and Covington, who were help
ing me in the matter, that we
would be the laughing stock of
Kentucky if something were not
done at once. l ordered them
to go out and intercept the
special train on the way back by
tearing up the track A COM
pany of militia from Covington
and the police did the work.
The two fighters and about 500
men was arrested. One of the
prisoners was a son of the Com
monwealth's Attorney in Coving-
ton. The two fighters were con-
victed and sentenced to serve
SIX months in Jail and to pay a
fine of 1000 each. After they
had served the six months re-
mitted the fine. l was little
bit worried about the tearing up
of the railroad tracks, and wrote
the president offering to pay for
the damages, personally. He
had his menrfeplace the tracks,
and didn't charge me a cent.
The thing ] didn't like about this
fight was that New Workers were
trying to put something over on
a Kentuckian. AS a rule we
don't approve of prize-fights in
Kentucky, but we were all inter-
ested in the returns from Reno"

Lightning Strikes Church.

Jacksonville. Bourbon county,
KY, July And may the
blessing of the Father the Son
a n d the Holy Spirit be-" a
binding flash of fire, a roar like
that of a cannon and a crash of
a falling ceiling cut short the
last words of the benediction by
the pastor of the little Baptist
church in this village this MORN
ing. Lightning had struck the
church.
Men and women, standing
with bowed heads to receive the
divine message, were blinded,
stunned and thrown to the floor.
Rev. T. G. Stackhouse, who a
moment before had faced his
humble congregation with arms
extended and with eyes closed,
and invoked the protection of
the Lord, was hurled from his
pulpit, and lay stunned an d
bleeding as the fragments of the
roof and plastering Numbered
onto the spot where ne had stood.
The pulpit, which was covered
with marble slab, was crumpl-
ed to bits, the full force of the
lightning defending upon it. A
foot away, upon a small stand,
lay the church bible, and at it's
side, bowl containing a bunch
of wild flowers. Not a drop of
the water was spilled, and not a
scratch did the Holy Book re-
ceive.
Fourteen people were render
ed unconscious. Ten of them
quickly recovered, and except
for the strain and excitement,
will suffer no ill effects. Two
were badly burned, both women,
and it is feared that one may die,
and the other lose her mind.
The little church was filled at
the regular services this morn
ing, for the sermon preached by
the Rev. Mr.. Stackhouse, upon
"The Wrath of the Lord" prom
ised well.
Mr.. Stackhouse is an impress
i've preacher and he held his
hearers this morning in more
than usually rapt attention. His
sermon was rather long, and it
was nearly noon when the con-
gregation rose to receive the
benediction, and hurry home for

any other similar source. She
furnishes these necessities to
him from infancy until such a
time as temporal things are no
longer associated with his ex-
istence, and she does it un-
grudgingly and constantly.
In addition to contributing to
mans necessity and his pleasure,
the prosperity of an agricultural
community is more closely ;denti-
fled with her than with any other
of the domestic animals. The
horse IS quite essential in tilling
the soil, but where necessity re-
qulres it the sturdy son of the
cow can take his place, as he has
done IN every agricultural Sec
ton on earth. The horse can
only furnish labor and can only
return profit to his owner when
conditions are right for return
ing satisfactory grain crops. 1t
is well known fact that the
dairy cow is the salvation of the
farmer in times of poor crops as
she is able to convert the rough
crops which are never a total
failure, into dairy products which
always have a cash value.
In addition to this she fur
nishes skim milk and butter milk
for the calves, pigs and poultry
and fertility for the soil, without
which a farm becomes less valu-
able each year and the whole
country less prosperous.
The elimination of the dairy
cow would necessitate an almost
revolutionary readjustment of
mans tastes and requirements.
1t would mean untold suffering
and hardship. Of course she
will not be dispensed with but her
value can perhaps best be ap-
preciated by contemplating such
a loss.
She will continue to be mans
best friend as long as the human
family exists and will keep on
supplying him with his greatest
needs just as she has done
through all the ages.

Law Governing Automobiles.

Every person who drives on
the road should know the law
governing the duty of drivers of
all kinds of vehicles.
The motorists have the same
rights as the drivers of horses
and vice versa and each should,
when meeting, pull to the right
and the driver on an automobile
must stop when told to. The
following digest of the laws
should be read by everyone, both
old and young.
1t is the duty of the operator
of motor car to give warning,
with bell or horn, when ap-
preaching person walking or
driving and to use every precau-
ton to insure the safety of the
person whom they are approach
ing. If the horse becomes
frightened it is the duty of the
motorist to reduce the speed, and
If necessary. bring the machine
to stop having at all times per-
feet control of the car and due
regard for the person driving
the horse.
A person operating a motor
car shall upon the request of sig
nal by putting up the hand, from
a person riding or driving a
horse, bring such motor car to
stop if necessary, having due re-
gard for their safety, and
travelling in the opposite direc-
ton, remain stationary as long
as he is reasonable to let such
horse pass. If travelling in the
same direction they must use
reasonable precaution thereafter
in passing; provided that the
horse appears frightened or the
driver of such horse requests
him to stop.
When passing horses or other
motorist, it is the duty of such
motor car to turn to the right of
the middle of the road, and on
overtaking a person riding or
driving, shall pass on the left
side and it is the duty of the per-
son overtaken to allow free pass
age.

Judge 0'Rear Does Not Yearn For
The Nomination.

While it seem to be taken for
granted by the state officials and
employees that Judge &c. O'Real
will be the Republican nominee
: for Governor it is by no means
, certain that Judge O'Rear can
be persuaded to accept the nomi.
nation. All the State House
Crowd talks as though there was
nothing to it but O'Rear and
never seems to consider the pos
sibilities of Judge O'Rear de-
clining to run. They talk about
how many votes O'Rear will get
and profess to believe that he
can win in a walk if he is nomi-
mated.
But Judge O'Rear is a pretty
good politician and he knows
that he would have to get up and
hump to run even a good race
against the Democratic candi-
date. He knows and has said
that the race would be hard
one and that the chances of the
Republicans would not be as
bright as some of the Republi-
cans think. The Judge does not
profess to believe that he or any
other Republican could pick up
the weight that would have to
be carried and gallop home in
front. He has been sitting tight
and saying nothing about the
nomination except to his close
friends and they know how he
feels about making the race and
know that he regards it as close
hard fight with the chances
against the Republican candi-
date.
For all these reasons the Judge
is cautious about the Republican
nomination and is hesitating a
long time before he even consid-
ers accepting a nomination.
Judge O'Rear does not relish the
idea of making the race unless
he thinks he has pretty good
chance to win and just at pres
sent it is said that Judge O'Rear
does not consider his chances as
good. If things should change
around a bit, and the prospects
grow brighter then it is possible
that Judge O'Rear will be the
nominee of the Republican party
for Governor but as things stand
now it is believed by Judge
O'Rear's closest friends that he
will not make the race and that
the Republicans will have to look
elsewhere for a candidate.
Gov. Wilson is the main reas-
on why they are all hesitating
about taki,sf the Republican
nomination. for Governor for
everybody in the party, who is
at all close to the real conditions
knows that the record made by
Gov. Wilson is going to be big
handicap for the candidate and
it is not improbable that an effort
will be made to shake off the
Governor and not attempt to de-
fend some of the things he has
done. 1t is conceded by all the
state employees that Gov. Wilson
is heavy handicap to carry and
that it may be too much for any
candidate. So it would not be
surprising to find the Republi-
cans failing to defend his admin
istration. Frankfort News.
