SHOOTING WITH INTENT
TO KILIl-FOUND GUILTY

A jury in the Mclean Circuit
court, in session at Calhoun, re-
turned a verdict Wednesday after
noon finding oliver Mcdaniel gull
ty of the charge of shooting with
intent to kill and he will be
given an indeterminate sentence
from one to five years in the peni-
Tertiary. The defendant was rep
resented by Hon. d. II. Kincheloe,
while the prosecution was conduct
ed by Commonwealth Attorney
Ben D. Ringo, assisted by the Coun-
ty Attorney of Mclean county, R.
A. Alexander.
The offense for which Mcdaniel
was convicted was committed on
September IS, and the Indictment
was returned by the grand jury at
this term of the court.
Mcdaniel emptied the contents of
shotgun into the back of ]. N.
Rowland, late in the afternoon on
the 18th of last month, near Beech
Grove, firing from ambush and Sc
riously wounding the victim, as ap-
proximately 1875 shot entered Row
lands back. Rowland recovered,
however, and was able to appear in
court Wednesday and testify against
his would-be assassin.

applause and cheering was deafen-
ing. The fact is, every time Ben
Johnson's name is mentioned to a
Democratic audience in LaRue
county, the boys proceed to make
things lively. The Fourth District
Congressman's popularity in this
county has grown until it reaches
into all sections. 1t has grown be-
cause LaRue county Democrats see
in Ben Johnson a stalwart friend of
the people-true to every promise,
energetic in his endeavor to help
the masses, and ever ready and
anxious to fight for every just
cause. There are no bigger. better,
brainier, fighting Democrats in the
whole country than Ben Johnson.
He fights the battles of Democracy
to win, and he shells out of his own
pocket more money than any other
individual Democrat in the State to
carry on legitimate warfare
against Republicanlsm.

TO EMPLOY AEROPLANES
FOR THE MAIL SERVICE
Also Parcels POst-PrOvided for
in Annual POst.Office
Estimates.

Washington, Oct. 6.-Provision
for the establishment of a parcels
post and the transportation of mail
by aeroplane has been made by
Postmaster General Hitchcock in
his annual estimates of Post-office
Department expenditures submitted
to the Treasurer Department.
According to Mr.. Hitchcock's es-
Inmates the appropriations necessa-
ry to meet the expenses of the pos
tai service at large during the COM
ing fiscal year will be $26O,93S,463,
decrease of $2,5S5,740 over the
appropriations for the current fiscal
year, or less than l per cent.-the
smallest on record.
The most important of the new
items in the estimates are those pro-
viding for a parcels post. They in
clude $4,000 to cover the prelimin-
airy expenses on rural mail routes,
and an equal appropriation to start
the StINlCSt III TIC NlllCSe hC
partment believes that after the ini-
tial expenses of establishment are
betrayed and the parcels post is in
full operation on the rural routes,
1t will not only bring a sufficient rev.
enue to meet It cost, but also a sur
plus that can be utilized in paying
the parcels post expenses in the city
delivery service. An additional
item of $4,000 is included to cover
an investigation having for its OBJ
ject the final establishment of a
general parcels post on all railway
and steamboat transportation
routes.
Thus Mr.. Hitchcock will submit
the parcels post question sQuarely
to Congress. for the Postal Commit
tees of the House and Senate will
have to pass directly on each item.
He is confident that legislation au-
thorizing parcels post in some
form will be secured at the coming
session of Congress.
Another item included for the
first time is $4,000 to cover expert
ments in the transportation of mail
by aeroplane. Mr.. Hitchcock be-
lieves that under certain conditions
it will be possible in the near future
to utilize the aeroplane to good adj
vantages in the mail service.

WOODMEN OF KENTUCKY
AT EVANSVILLE MEET

Woodmen of the World from
Ohio and adjoining counties will
send a large delegation to Evans
Vile Sunday, October 10. 1t is the
intention of the State officials to
send five or six thousand Woodmen
to the Woodmen Day at Evansville
and they are urging local camps all
over the State to make efforts to
send a large delegation. District
meetings are being held all over the
State and a great interest is thus
being created.
II is the wish of the State officials
of Kentucky, Indiana and Illinois
to have $1,000 men in line at the
great parade in Evansville.
Among the speakers who will adj
dress the camp will be Colonel ]. II.
Brewer of Louisville, state Mana
ger; T. T. Lane, prominent Wood
man of greensboro; ]. w. Melton
and n. w. Ashby, Jr., Of Sebree; F.
B. Heath, of Marion; ]. L. Clark, of
Waverly, and other prominent
Woodmen of Henderson. Union,
Webster, Ohio and Daviess counties.
A large number of the uniform
rank will take a hand in the meet
ing. 1t probably will be the largest
gathering of Woodmen of the World
ever held in that city.

WISCONSIN TOWN is
SWEPT AWAY BY FLOOD

La Crosse, Wis, Oct. 6.-Thirty
business houses of the prosperous
Black River Falls have been de-
stroyed so far by a food this after
noon, when the water OF Black
river swept around the La Crosse
Water Power Company's dam at
Hatfield.
The rapid rise from the weeks
rains did not burst the dam, but cut
away the embankments at the side,
pouring food In as great a volume
as If the dam had broken.
It is feared that at least two of
the city's 1000 population are dead,
while perhaps there is loss of life
in the surrounding country. It is
feared that the main concrete dam
will no out.

---DATTLESHIP
ALMOST DESTROYED
Cassander Shrieking "Calamity!'
Through Crowded Streets
OF Troy.

Just as the chief gunner who
mans the powerful Unit" CUR on
the armored cruiser ORear, had
got another range on the gable end
of Democracy and was about 10
fire, there was a frightful explosion
within, which destroyed the main
.turret and reduced the party plat
form to bug-dust.
Naturally, there's a lot of specu-
lation as to the cause, and the pub
lie anxiously awaits an official inves-
tigation. Some think that in his
thirst for blood CD O'Rear tamped
his waddin' entirely too much. 9th
ers believe the gun itself was defec-
tive, in fact, full of woodpecker
holes, while others contend that hui
man ingenuity could not devise a
Unit gun that would stand one OF
those Internal nitro-McCulloch
bombs, samples of which were sent
out in his First Eplstles to the Phil
istians.
Truth is, the cause of the disas-
ter is well understood by the old
veterans. They could have told
O'Rear, in the outset, When he was
first organizing his steam"roller
campaign, that Temperance, like re-
ligion, as a political weapon, is a
blunderbuss, more deadly at the
breech than the muzzle. But the
political leaders of his party don't
seem to be advising much-kind O.
incubating, as it were.
The only comment the chief gun
ger has been heard to make was
when he rushed up to his perfectly
sober campaign committee and ex-
claimed: 81 always get the two
mixed. Is this politics or h-l?-
but, bark! I hear the Gauls at the
gatesl" and then, like Bill Sykes
eye, "he was out and gone" s.

Urging w. S. Taylor to Use
Violence,
THEN CAME ASSASSINATION
of William GOebel-Startllng
Charge Is Made by
Gov. McCreary.
CALLS ON o'REAR TO TELL ALL

Wickliffe, KY, Oct. THE third
real sensation of the campaign be-
tween former Senator James B. Nc
Creary and Judge O'Rear for the
Governorship of Kentucky, was
sprung here to-day by Senator Nc
Creary when he charged his Repub-
lican opponent with having partici-
pated in a meeting at the Gait
House in Louisville In January,
1900, with w. S. Taylor and others,
and claimed that Judge O'Rear
made a speech in that meeting In
which he advocated the use OF arm
ed men and violence to keep Taylor
in Office.
Senator McCreary said that he
had been trying to secure this evil
dence for the past month, but that
1t was not until Friday, In Louis
Vile, that he secured the word OF
man who was in that conference
and who heard all that was said by
Taylor, Judge O'Rear and Others
with reference to the course to be
pursued by Taylor and his asso-
ciates, to retain the Offices to which
they claimed to have been elected.
Not only did Senator McCreary
charge Judge O'Rear with having
made a speech in that conference in
which he advocated violence, but he
called on him to tell the people of
Kentucky why he banded with Tay-
lor, and dared him to tell what he
had said in that speech of eleven
years ago.
He said it was shortly after this
advice had been given to Taylor by
-SJudge O'Rear that the regiment of
armed soldiers from the mountains
of nentucky marched on Frankfort
and remained there until after the
assassination of Gov-elect William
Goebel.
Senator McCreary said the con-
duct of his Republican opponent in
that memorable meeting was of
such a nature that he did not care
to comment on it to any great
length, unless it should be denied,
when he would be ready to furnish
the names of two prominent men of
Kentucky who were in the confer
ence, 10 prove his assertion. He
said, however, that he believed the
people of Kentucky would give the
matter much thought between now
and the November election and
would show by their votes that they
did not countenance such action on
the part of a man seeking the high
est Office within the gift of the peo-
pie of the State.

MIR. BRYAN'S GREETINGS
TO PRESIDENT TAFT

The following are Mr.. Bryan's
remarks proposing the health of the
President on the occasion of Mr..
Taft's recent visit to Lincoln:
Lincoln Is honored to-day by the
presence of the highest official in
the world. The Presidents posi-
tion is greater than kings. His
authority is more vast than any
civilized people would entrust to a
hereditary ruler, and he holds the
place not by accident of birth but
by the suffrages of his countrymen.
Though in campaigns he is the lead
err of a party. he is after election the
chief executive of a nation, and his
arm Yields the strength of ninety
millions of people. Lifted by voters
to this position of supreme COM
mand, he becomes the most exalted
Of our public servants. 1t is fitting
that we, a group of the sovereigns
whom he serves, should pay our re-
spects to him and to the Office which
he holds. / ask you to rise, fill your
glasses with the beverage upon
which the Almighty has set the seal
of His approval and drink to the
health of President Taft, and may
God give him wisdom to discharge
Alright the onerous duties imposed
upon him"
