Drastic Local Option Law.

One of the most drastic of all
anti-liquor measures?enacted by
this session of the Legislature is
that passed by the House, max
ing it unlawful to purchase,
procure or deliver" Intoxicating
liquor into local option territory.
This means that anyone who
might purchase liquor and take
it to a friend in "dry" territory
would be amenable to the law.
This bill having also passed the
Senate only now likes the sigma
ture of Gov. McCreary to become
a law, and the Governor will
most surely sign the bill.

EstiII Democrats Voices Sentiments.

Estill county Democrats met
at Irvine and, o. w. Witt in the

the danger oil bringing before the

idential election any candidate
who stands for the initiative, the
referendum and the recall. The
preamble and the resolutions,
as attested b. Secretary Charles
II. Flynn, are as follows:
"Whereas, jim our Government

Philip Of Orleans, the Man Who "Made" Money

himself declared regent of the king
dom until the new king should be Of
age. He found France In an almost
kings extravagances, and he tried to
start an era of prosperity. Instead.
h. started an avalanche of misfortune.
John Law "a gambler, who had been
forced to fee from Scotland for duel
ing and who had been expelled from
two continental cities as an ''unde-
sirable") came to Paris and suggested
to Philip a scheme for wiping out
Frances national debt and putting
the country, financially, on it's feet.
The idea, roughly. was this:
To establish state bank that
should handle all public funds and to
run it in connection with a company
for exploiting Louisiana and the rest
Of the Mississippi region. New Or
leans was named in honor of Philip.)
The shores Of the Mississippi were
supposed to be lined with rich gold
and silver mines.
The boom began. Shares that were
issued at 500 ran up to $4,000. Law
promised annual dividends of 12O per
cent. on the stock. France went money
mad. People clamored for chance to
invest in the wonderful scheme. Law
paid the dividends in treasury notes,
which may or may not have had some
genuine value. But whatever value
they had was at once ruined by Philip,
who proceeded to print paper money
in huge quantities for his own use
and for other purposes, without both
ering about the fact that there was
not nearly enough real money in the
bank to justify it.
Everybody had money (made Of pa

as much as had silk. But no one
cared. For everybody seemed to have
plenty of paper currency.
A few wise people tried to cash in"
their paper notes for gold and silver.
Philip quickly stopped this by declar-
ing it illegal for any one to possess
more than certain amount Of genu.
Inc money and by Furnishing those who
tried to get rid Of their paper notes.
Then, all at once the scheme fell

Force of Lightning

The amount of light given by SIN
gle lightning fash Is enough, an cleo
tr,cian calculates. to illuminate an area
If two square miles. The bolt itself
would be visible several miles furth-
or off but the remotest part Of the
region mentioned would have as much
light as would be given by a candle
quite enough to read by.
TO produce such light it would be
necessary to expend $4,000 horse
mower for a second These figures ap-
near large, but the time is short. The
flash might be for only 1900 part Of
a second, but the impression on the eye
would continue for tenth Of Sec
ond anyway Reckoned down to an
exact hour, this moment Of force would
mean only about four horsepower.
The question of how the static cleo
tr1city gets into the clouds is difficult
to answer. One theory is that it is
generated by the evaporation of water
by the suns rays. Another is that
static discharges are continually tax.

all parts of Europe. frenzied men and
women-money-drun - thronged to
the French capital.
For the greatest "get-rich-quick"
scheme on record was In progress
And its promoter and chief hacker was
Philip, duke Of Orleans, regent OF
France. At his side stood canny
Scotchman, John Law by name. Philip.
coached by Law, was literally max
ing" money He was manufacturing
it for his own benefit as he might have
manufactured cigars or tin cans. It
was a pleasant and profitable busi-
ness. When the regent needed money
he ordered bills to be engraved and
used them at will-regardless Of the
fact that there was no real cash In
the treasury to meet the bills when
they should be presented.
Philip was the nephew Of King
Louis XIV. Of France. He began life
with splendid prospects. He was
brilliant, brave, of attractive personal.
ity and with strong talent as a states.
man and soldier. But in youth his
tutor, Dubois (whom he afterward
made prime minister Of France).
taught him to sheer at morality and
goodness and to revel in life OF
low dissipation. In spite Of these
drawbacks Philip made a name for
himself. He was 50 fine general
and so successful in Frances wars
that Louis XIV grew Jealous of his
fame and withdrew him from the field.
Next he plotted to seat himself on the
Spanish throne. And again court in
fluencc checked him. So he devoted
himself to the study Of chemistry, in
GLIDING the art Of preparing po:sons.
And soon afterward nearly all the
heirs to the throne Of France suddenly
died. Philip was accused Of poison
ing them In order to gain the crown
himself. He denied this and demand
ed trial. Old Louis XIV. who hated
him, refused Philip even this doubt
full chance to clear himself.
When Louis XIV. died, in 1716, the
next heir to the throne (Louis XVI
was only five years of age. Philip
(brushing by the obstacles Louis XIV.
had raised against such an act) had
