The fight against sheep scabies IN
this State is to be turned over to the
national Government. which will put
force of inspectors in Kentucky to as
sist the cruhty livestock inspectors,
and it is believed that the disease in
the sheep can be stamped out by next
winter With the determined methods
which will be adopted. Five or six IN
spectors under the direction of the
Bureau of Animal industry of the
government will be sent to Kentucky
at once to take up the fight and later
some ten more inspectors, who are
now at work in other States, will be
put into Kentucky.
This plan of action was decided upon
at meeting of the State Livestock
Sanitary Board when a representative
of the United States Government was
present. 1t was stated at the meeting
that Marion. Washington and Nelson
counties are the worst infected of any
of the counties which have been visit
ed. In these counties. it is stated, but
little has been done toward stamping
out the scabies, but the Fiscal Court
of each county has promised to do
what could be done to fight the pest.
Scabies in sheep has cost the sheep
breeders of Kentucky a great deal nf
money, and it is regarded as important
to have the disease eliminated as
quickly as possible. Through the news
papers the farmers have been warned
and aroused to the dangers that exist.
and they have begun to do ell they can
to aid the war against scabiee.

COMMISSIONS

A tariff commission Is a good
thing for procrastination. Its
members are a. likely to see things
in as many phases As members Of
congress. Hence much depends
On the makeup Of the mission.
OF course the commission is to be
"non-partizan." Generally speak
ing, however, there is but little
difference between q stsnd-pat re.
publican and n stand-pat demo-
crat.
The tariff will never be settled
right until the system of taxation
is entirely abolished. This idea is
fast gaining ground among econo-
mists. The tariff commission can
have no power except to ascertain
facts, a. the lower house Of con.
gress alone can introduce measures
Of taxation.

ASTOUNDING STORY
is TOLD By A SISTER
OF One Of the Persons in the
Cumberland Sweetheart
Mystery.

CUMBERLAND, Nd, Feb. rs
The attention OF States Attorney
David A. RObb has been called to a
new witness in the Twigg-Elosser
case, Mrs. Maria Helgoth, of this
city, who gives out astounding in
formation, which she says was given
her by Mrs. Carrie See, the youngest
CT the Eiosser sisters.
In the presence OF DIR. Thomas w.
Koon, city police commissioner, Mrs.
Helgoth quoted Mrs. See as having
made the declaration TO her, at her
own home, about January II or 12,
that May CLOSER served wine to her
sister Grace, Charles E. Twigg and
Mrs. See herself shortly before the
sweethearts were found dead in the
parlor of the CLOSER home. When
she. Mrs. See, entered the room in
which the tragedy occurred. Twigg
was lying on the floor behind the
parlor door, and not on the sofa,
where he was found by the physician
summoned. The double poisoning
occurred while Mrs. See was up
stairs, where she went at Grace's re-
quest to bring down the wedding
dress to Twigg, who had asked TO
see 1t. Hitherto the impression has
been that Mrs. See was not in the
house at the time, but ran from her
own home, across the alley. at the
sound of Mrs. Elosser's screams.
Mrs, HeIoth at first did not want
to talk. She said she belonged to a
soap club and Carrie See told her
the story when she came to her
home to collect.
