Mr.. Benjamin l.. Kelly, Garrard
county's prize tobacco raiser, marketed
his crop in Lexington last week receiv-
ing therefor $24 80 on an average; his

Clark and Homestead Bill.

(NeW York Post)
1t is aui.e possible that the home
stead bill for which Speaker Clark
took the floor in the House of Repre-
sentatiNes Yesterday, and spoke ear
nestly for ten minutes, is desirable
measures but even he must realize
when he comes to think about the
matter, that the bill cannot possibly
have any very great effect in stopping
the stream of the very best American
citizens OF this country going to Man
itoha and Alberta which he So deep
~ deplores He tells of fortS-three
families in his own county, all OF
them prosperous farmers, who loaded
up an entire freight train and pulled
out for Alberta, and then proceeds To
describe one individual case as fol-
lows:
Another man in my district sold his
farm for $4,000 and his stock and 9TH
er valuable assets ran the sum up to
about $40, 500 He moved To Manitoba
ana entered or purchased 10000 acres
of that land up there. He gave to each
of his eight children LOCO acres. keep
ing 1000 acres for himself. That is the
kind Of American citizens who are
British Northwest.
Well, does Mr.. clark think that this
ekind of American citizen will be
prevented from undertaking splendid
farming enterprise across the Canadi-
an border by the passage of bill
which simply proposes 20 reduce the
period a homesteader must live on his
lard from five to three years, and TO
allow him to absent himself from his
holding for five months for each of the
three years? The notion is too rdicu-
LOUIS to discuss. Mr.. Clark, however,
is doubtless sincere in saying that he
is sin favor of fixing it so that no
American citizen will want To depart
rom the United States to secure q
home in a foreign land" As usual,
Champ is long of patriotic sentiment
and short of good hard sense.

Suffraeist Progress.
(Pittsburg Dispatch,D

tPIttSDurS D1Spatcn.l
While disappointed at not gaining
what they sought, the advocates OF
equal suffrage nave reason to be elated
at the closeness of the votes by which
their proposition was defeated in the
New York and Massachusetts legisla-
lures At Albany the hostile majority
in the Senate was but two votes, while
in the House a motion To reject the
adverse committee report was carried
by a majority OF five In Massachu-
sets the vote in the Senate was Il
to a.
This would seem to indicate that the
hopes of the suffragists were within
measurable distance of realization.
1t may not be next session, but ii the
drift reflected in these votes is main
tanned ii may not be long until votes
for women are obtained in those two
states 1t is possible, of course, thai
the division in both legislatures is not
as close as the votes indicate-that
some of the favorable votes We're cast
with a knowledge that the result
would be adverse In fact, in New
York the vote in committee of the
whole was more unfaVorable than the
recorded vote in the Senate. But this
indicates wholesome respect for the
movement on the part of even hostile
Legislators when they show sufficient
consideration for it to pretend to be
for it. So that on the whole the out.
look is far from diseouraging to the
suffragists, even if their present dis
appointment is keen.

The Profit in Habit Building.

The following quotation from a
LIQUOR dealer TO his fellows in a great
gathering Of the interests, is on par
with the demands of the food dopers
who are opposed by DR.. Harvey w.
Wiley
1.-The open field for the creation
of appetite is among the boys.
After men have grown, and their
habits are formed, they seldom
change in this regard; and ! make
the suggestion, gentlemen. that
nickels expended in treats to the
boys now will return in dollars to
your tiIls after the appetite has
been formed"
From the Washington dispatches of
the Associated Press Thursday, we
reap an illuminating sheaf of infor-
NATION regarding the hatred by the
food and drink eiopers, OF DIR. Wiley
Representatives of drug concerns arr
gued that exceptions should be made
of Preparations containing only small
portions OF opium, morphine and co
caine and the other drugs named.
They held that there were SO many
OF these preparations scattered
through small drug stores all over the
country that it would require years
ard a heavy expense fee to manufac-
tuners to have all marked with skull
and cross bones, as the regulation of
the pure food board would require.
And there you have 1.-THE happi-
ness and lives of thousands of human
beings pe damned, dollars and cents
are at stake. These drug handlers
know better than any other the cumu-
lative effect of small doses upon the
appetites of users. particularly the
Young. They understand the banker
ings which are gradually built up and
increased until they are overpowering.
The insidieus amounts of opium, NOR
phine, cocaine and other habit form
ing drugs are daily poisoning millions
of dollars out of the people and these
food prisoners and drink makers are
fattening upon IL
Five cents Of the dollar spent
for liquor goes back into legitimate
trade; ninety five cents is distrib-
uted to the government (which is

business) to the big city corpora

they wish an inspection of the ballots
within a reasonable period after cleo
ton would be obliged to make trip
to the secretary OF States office at
Augusta instead of the convenient and
inexpensive means Of inspecting bal
lots. under the present law, in the
hands OF town clerks.
So much for the two most important
administrative measures which Demo-
cratic leaders have attempted, but
there is another. Even the indorse-
ment by Democracy of the Nelson
good roads plan could not be offered
10 the people without a sorrowful eN
hibition of legislative incapacity or be-
trayal of public faith. The proposed
legislation authorizing $1,000 600,
bond issue for the construction and
care of roads in the State contained a
little cocker" of tremendous signiti-
canoe. Newspaper men called atten-
ton to the fact that under such pro-
vision "the legislature may authorize
an issue of bonds not exceeding 81,
900. 900 in amount at ANY TIME
and use it for repair purposes if de-
sired such a beautiful piece of Dem
ocratic legal architecture, had it Slip
ped into the statutes, would have re-
manned a sky-high monument to DEM
'ocratic ineffieiency.
All in all, the Plaisted "Iiauor-inter-
ests session" has shown nothing thus
far but incompetence and painful lack
of appreciation of the duties and con
.sideration which are generally expect
ed of a law making body.
It certainly is a pitiful fizzle. And
the state must pay well for it. Settle
in good hard dollars Of the realm for
the attempt of few politicians to
square their obligations to the brewers
by trumpins up an excuse for calling
the Legislature.
Last year the only argument Demo
cratic leaders had for the removal of
the prohibtory law from the Consti-
tuition. was that ii is a sumptuary law
and has no place in the Constitution.
Now they have reversed their position
and ask to amend the law and add to
it license extension that would make
a town once license. always license.
There is their consistency-evil may
not be constitutionally opposed. but
license may be made mandatory.
Nov the steam roller is invoked to
override everything and get away be-
fore the people make any more dis
eoyeries against Democracy.
