as marking the last appearance On
the stage of a number of figures that
have attracted a great deal of atten-
ton for a number OF years. And the
opening days were looked forward
to in order that the measure Of these
men might be taken from new an
gle. The country has been anxious
to know their attitude after their
Reputation at the polls.
Lame Ducks
The most conspicuous of these fig
ures are Aldrich, Cannon, Burrows,
Tawney and Hale. These are the
men upon whom the country places
the responsibility of Republican re-
verse at the last election, and they,
with some thirty or forty others who
failed or will fail of reelection, are
now being dubbed as lame ducks.
Cigars at Same Angle
Those who are expecting TO see
any great change in manner or in
attitude from these gentlemen, how
ever, have had to face a grievous
disappointment. The angle of Mr..
Cannon's cigar-and he may be Ia
ken as a fair representative of the
entire body-betokens anything else
than a spirit of dependency. OF
course Mr.. Cannon's predicament Is
not as bad as some of the rest,
since he will be a member Of the
next house and will only experience
defeat in the matter of the speaker
ship. These men have been in poll
tics long enough and have sufficient
knowledge of the fortunes of war us
we'll as of politics to look upon their
reverse philosophically.
Message Well Received
The Presidents message was Of
unusual length and Of a little more
than usual interest. There is lit
tie in it that would meet with pop
ular disapproval. Possibly it might
be said that his advocacy of a ship
subsidy is the only question that
be would be taken seriously to task
about. A few recommendations that
will meet with pretty general approx
al are, revision of the tariff by a
permanent board, the merit system
for diplomatic and consular service,
general economy in government de-
partments, government ownership Cl
embassies and legations, recognition

NEW ALTITUDE RECORD


Records are broken rapidly in the
aviation world. A few weeks ago
Ralph Johnston held the altitude re-
cord. having climbed In his by-plane
TO a height OF 9,714 feet tombstone
fell and was killed at Denver and "a
few days later Drexel near Philadel-
phla broke Johnstons record, reach
ing an altitude OF 1887 feet. Now a
Frenchman named Legagneux has
climbed a little higher, having passed
the 10000 feet mark and proved
false the opinion that the air at that
height Is too rare to support heavier
than air machine.
MRS. EDDY'S WILL
The will of Mrs. Eddy, the head OF
the Christian Science Church, who
died last week, has been made pub
lie. The document shows that she
has an estate valued at a million five
hundred thousand dollars, and, as was
expected. the entire amount is left
to the directors OF the church which
she established for the purpose "
propagating her teachings. Not dol
lar was left to her son George w.
Glover nor TO her adopted son Il. J.
Foster Eddy.
THE HOOK WORM DOOMED
The scourge known as hook worm,
a disease peculiar TO the southern
states and some adjacent islands. has
only been known as such for three
or four years. the malady hitherto
having been called anaemia.
About three years ago United
States army surgeon attributed much
OF the industrial inactivity OF the
south TO the hook worm and announc-
cd a remedy for the disease. His
statements were not taken seriously
for some time, and where taken seri-
ously, as In some places in the south,
were bitterly resented. Resentment
was widely felt when Mr.. Rockefeller
announced his gift to be used In the
determination OF the disease. Now we
have a practical demonstration of the
extent OF the disease and the pos
sibility of cure in the report of an
army surgeon In Porto Rico, Doctor
Bailey Ashford. The government es-
tablished sixty hook worm DISPENSE
ries In the island and the report states
that three hundred thousand out of
the total population of a million have
been cured, with the result that there
is greater industrial activity and a
great increase In wages due TO great
er efficiency of workmen.
UNCLE SANS FAMILY.
At last the census bureau has
completed its task and announces
that the stars and stripes float over
l0l 100000 souls. This estimate in
eludes our island possessions, the
Philippines, Samoa, Hawaii, Guam,
Alaska and the Panama Canal Zone.
The population within the borders OF
the union, that is, excluding Alaska,
is 81 ,972, 1865. This is an increase Of
81 per cent over the last census.
The first census was taken in 1880.
The population was then nearly four

ELECTION SET ASIDE


The Court of Appeals on Dec. 9Th
affirmed the decision OF the Pike
County Court in the election contest
cases. The contest was over the No
vember election of 1909; there having
been two tickets in the field-the Re
publican and Fusionist. The Republi-
cans were declared the victOrs and
the Fusionists instituted q contest.
The circuit judge held that the
irregularities had been such on both
sides that it was impossible TO tell
who had won, and set aside the cleo
ton. The court of appeals in affirm
ing the decision of the lower court
declared that nearly every one con-
cerned in the election should be sery-
ing the state in some other capacity,
since, according to the evidence, they
are convicted OF bribery.
GOOD ROADS CONGRESS
The conference of delegates from
every section of the state, appoint
ed for the purpose of discussing the
states road problem, Will meet in
Louisville the last week in December.
1t is likely that new interest will be
given to the discussions owing TO
the recent census figures, for there
can be no doubt in the minds Of the
intelligent, at least, that the want OF
proper transportation facilities is a
serious drawback to the advance
ment of the state commercially, and
the want of commercial advancement
in modern times indicates a lack of
growth in population.
KENTUCKY PRESS ASSOCIATION
The Kentucky Press Association
will hold its mid-winter meeting in
Louisville Dec. 2Sth and 18th. Added
interest is given to this meeting ow-
ing to the fact that the good roads
congress convenes there at the same
time. Aside from their interest in the
discussions Of this congress, the MEM
bers of the press association will
have an excellent program of their
own, as Chief Justice Barker, who
is soon to become President of the
University Of Kentucky, and Prof.
G. j. Norwood, the states greatest
geologist, have been secured to adj
dress the association. The subject Of
Judge Barker's address will be ken
lucky University" and that of Profess
sor Norwood, Buried Treasures"
VETS AND DRYS
The Court of Appeals on Dec. Sth
reversed the judgment of the Jessa-
mine Court and held that the local OPP
ton election in that county was iu-
valid. The reversal was made on
the ground that the registration laws
were not complied with.
At the same time the court declar-
ed that the Bible should not be us
ed as an emblem In elections, and,
because it had been so used in a ID
cal option election in Powell County,
reversed the decision of the Circuit
Court of that county and thereby
gave the vets the victory.
THE TOBACCO POOL
The failure Of the 1910 tobacco pool
is beginning to be looked upon almost
as disaster by the growers through
out the state. The pool failed owing
to its inability to induce a sufficient
number OF the growers to subscribe,
and the result has been individual
