Editor Jesse Alverson, of the An
derson News, in the venomous per-
sonal campaign he is making against
the denomination of Congressman
Harvey Helm, published a week on
so ago an editorial in reference to
the transferral of Adair and Casey
counties to the Eighth district, Ill
which he boldly minated that MIR.
Helm had secured his mailing lists
for those counties from Caleb Pow
ers, the republican who has misre-
sented the Eleventh district for a
short time.
Our friend Alverson's mudsling-
ing campaign against the Congress
man is making so many friends Tor
the latter. that We long ago conelud-
ed to let him have all the halter he
desires in these matters. However,
when so brazen a libel, as this re-
ference to the lists of Adair and
Casey, is printed in other papers
over the district as advertising,
presumably paid for by some other
candidates for congress, We think 1t
opportune TO nail it right here.
If our friend Alverson did not
already know it-and it's very pc
cuhar that as close a reader of the
daily papers as he Is, did not-he
could very easily have learned that
Congressman Harvey Helm is one Of
few members of the Kentucky dele
CATION at Washington who has not
speaking acquaintance with the
notorious Powers. He has declined
to be introduced to the man thrice
convicted of Goebel's murder, as a
great many other democrats-and
republicans. too. for that matter
have also done.
The idea of Helm sending his sec
rotary to Powers for a list of names
Of voters in Adair and Casey is too
preposterous TO receive considera-
ton for a minute. and Editor Aver
son must think that the democratic
voters of the Eighth district are
mighty big fools TO attempt 10 make
them swallow such a story as that.
We can tell them right here, and
Editor Alverson also, that Mr.. Helm
secured his mailing list Of the two
new counties direct from leading de-
mocrats of those two counties, who
realize, because of the splendid re-
cord he has made. that he is de-
serving of a denomination. especial
" at a time when democratic pros
poets in the nation are so bright and
there seems a still greater oppor-
tunitv opening before him to be of
benefit of the country and of service
10 his constituents. When no more
reasonable argument against his re-
turn to congress can be made than
that which our friend Alverson has
trumped mp in his overweening per-
sonal spite against Mr.. Helm, it's
time I'd make the latter's renomina-
ton unanimous.
A very fair insight into the opin-
ion in which Mr.. Helm is held in the.
two new counties Of the district, may
be had by reading the letter from a
prominent attorney of Adair county,
published on our first page.

ALDERMANIC CIVICISM.

There is a plan on foot in Chicago,
TO build a park along part of the lake
shore. That plan has been a pet top
ic of discussion by all the citizens of
the metropolis.
The Illinois Central Railroad has a
number of tracks where the proposed
park is to be laid. Those tracks have
been a sore spot to all these civic
patriots. who think lake shore
might be converted into a municipal
adornment.
In the course of time the matter
of building the park came up before
a select committee of aldermanic
gentlemen, elected to that office for
their known civic pride, their good
reasoning and sound judgment. and
their unimpeachable honesty. They
voted the plan down.
No. There is no use in putting
two and two together. The eminent
committee of aldermen simply
thought it was unfair to ask the llli-
nois Central to move its tracks a bit
,o tu-, on1 n b,1f million noOnla
might be given a breathing spot, un-
tinged with soft coal smoke. 1t was
demanding too much of nice kind,
concern. They meekly thought it
was best to get along without the
park. OF course. The Illinois Cen
trail was duly grateful too, it is
thought, for this kindness in its be-
half.

guard had left his post.
Mr.. Buckingham tells me that
Booth was in and out of the house
five times before he finally shot the
President. Each time he looked
about the theater there can be no
doubt that he was studying the scene
of the intended crime and that he OBJ
served that Parker, whom he must
have been watching. was not at his
post. To me it is very probable that
the fact there was no one on guard
may have determined the time of his
attack. Booth had found it neceS-
sary to stimulate himself with whis-
ky in order to reach the proper pitch
of fanaticism. Had he found a man
at the door of the Presidents box
armed with a Colts revolver. his al
cohOl courage might have eyapOr-
ated.
Had Parker been at his past at
the back of the boX-BOOth still be-
ing determined to make the attempt
that night-he would have been
stabbed, probably killed. The noise
of the struggle-Parker could surely
have managed to make some Outcry
would have given the alarm. Ma
jOr RathbOne was a brave man and
the President was a brave man and
of enormous muscular strength. 1t
would have been an easy thing for
the two men to have disarmed Booth,
who was not man of great physical
strength 1t was the suddenness of
his attack on the President that
made it so devilishly successful. 1t
makes me feel rather bitter when
remember that the President had
said just few hours before that he
knew he could trust all his guards.
And then to think that in that one
moment of test one of us should have
utterly failed him."
