More "Vindication."

Caleb Powers was the victor in the
Congressional race in the Eleventh
District Tuesday, which, from par
tisan Republican point of view, is a
further 'vindication" of the mountain
martyr" His majority .over Judge
Bertram was something less than g.,
500, which is not half of the usual Re-
publican majority of the Eleventh,
which is normally $4,000.
1t was an uphill fight from the first
for the Democrats, but the result is
gratifying even in the face of the de-
feat suffered by the Democratic candi-
date that more than $4,000 Republi-
cans in the district did not favor put
ting a man of Powers stripe in Con-
gress. Powers seemed to realize that
he was not able to command the
strength of the Republican party of
the district which was indicated in his
closing speech of the campaign. But
there were enough in spite of all the
Democrats could do to snow Judge
Bertram under with a majority of
more than eight thousand.
This is most to much for the proud
old Commonwealth of Kentucky to
bear. Such victory is not worthy of
mention. 1t was hoped there was
enough people in the Eleventh district
who were fair enough of mind and in
bued with the consciousness of the
true Kentuckian to put the martyr"
on the shelf. They have done the
work, however, but the whole of the
State cannot be held responsible for
what happened in che Eleventh, and
in putting a thrice convicted accessory
to one of the most heinous crimes ever
committed within the borders of the
State on an exalted pedestal and in
the halls of Congress. Ged forbid
that the grand old State of Kentucky
shall ever again suffer such shame and
humiliation.

What Else?


We may look for most anything to
happen in this advanced age. A man
conspires to do murder, under the
guise of a soldier he attempts escape
but is intercepted in his flight by Off
GERS and arrested; he spends eight
years in prison, is thrice convicted of
completely in foul crime; is pardon
ed by Republican, leaves prison a
rich man and the people of his hon e
district haiiing him as martyr elect
him to Congress. A lucky day for
Powers when he piloted the mountain
army to Frankfort. What else can
the Republicans do to odd shame to
Kentucky.

Ashes From the Old Hearth.

A quaint Swedish legend concerning
cure for inconsistencies appears in
Selma Lagerlofs book THE Girl From
the Marsh Croft" translated by Velma
Swanston Howard. The tradition is to
the effect that if a person suffering
from nostalgia took some ashes from
the hearth in his or her old home and
strewed them on the fire in the strange
place he OF she would be rid of the
homeSickneSS-an easy remedy appar.
emily. but it had two serious draw
backs. The first was that after using
the remedy in the new home one would
never be content lin any other place.
If one were to move from the home
stead to which one had borne the
ashes one would always long to get
back there again just as much as one
had longed to get away from there.
And the second drawback was that
one couldn't carry ashes along every
time one moved to new place. be-
cause the remedy could be used once
only. After that it lost its charm and
had no effect. So that. taken all in all.
it was a rather dangerous experiment
to make
