1t would also be interesting to set
such a class to verifying Professor

is inclined to believe that the diam
eter taken from the summit of Mount
Chiles, in Columbia, 1890 feet above
the sea, might be greater than that
from the summit Of Chimborazo, for a
careful study of the maps indicates
that at its antipodes 1t would emerge
at a higher point in Sumatra than the
Chimborazo line. The latter would
emerge In III N. lat, 101 E. long,
which point is In the marshes on the
. plateau near Serentang. The line from
Mt. Chiles would emerge at l s. lat.
1924 E. long, which is on the north
eastern slope Of the Barison Noun
tains at an elevation of about 1000
feet. Which of these lines is the
longer depends upon the elevation OF
their respective antipodes. Chin
borazo is more than 1000 feet higher
than Chiles, so the Chiles line would
have to emerge at least that much
above sea level.

"PrObIematical".

Under the above caption the Danville
Advocate, while wishing our neighbors
all the progress and advancement
possible, bemoans the possibility OF
Harrodsburg and Lancaster erecting
loose leaf tobacco markets, because
"Danville already has an established
market and large amount of capital
invested in the enterprise" and 1T is
hoped our neighbors will not attempt to
divide the business of this area. This
is exactly the reason of the opposition
which has developed to the erection of
a warehouse in Lancaster, because 1t
will injure the business of our neighbOr-
ing towns.
Charity to our minds, begins at home,
and for to these many years we have
been injuring our own business By hav-
ing no local market for our product and
being compelled to haul them to
neighboring towns, with the resultant
inconvenience attending the operation,
to say nothing of the additional expense,
and thereby allowing the neighboring
counties to reap the benefit of our
industry. Personally we have no choice
as to market, saving always the home
market, and we have no choice as to
whether our farmers market their crops
at either Danville, Richmond, LeXing-
ton or elsewhere, but we do think that
they are standing in their own light
when they allow themselves to be
compelled to market their crop any
where save at home. The very idea Of
Garrard county with her six million
pounds of the acknowledged best hurley
tobacco raised in central Kentucky be.
ing compelled to seek a market in ar
adjoining town, is preposterous. But
after all the fault lies with the grower,
the question is squarely up to them
the people of Lancaster stand ready
and willing to do their part. and with q
very reasonable amount of fin anciaI
cooperation from the farmer, a ware
house will be quickly built.

A Little Political History OF Garart
County.

For many years, all hands of, Gar
rard has been republican by a hand
some majority. This has been often
overcome by Democrats. by the use Of
superior electioneering tactics and
campaign methods. The burden of
this majority was increased and &C
centuated by the fact that the Collec-
tors Office was located at Lancaster for
for many years, under Republican rule.
An army of officers was on duty, in
the home Office and in the field, ever
ready to contribute funds and work
for the Republican campaign. Demo-
Gratis who won, under these conditions,
were forced to work and use funds al
most without limit. They were bound
as by an incubus, an irresistible in
fluence.
Lancaster is to have a Government
building, in which the Office could be
located, and justice and equity would
suggest the propriety Of locating the
office there. Compensation demands
it. 1t would be consistent with the
custom of pensioning soldiers for SER
vice in time of war. Justice demands
quid pro quo, tit for tat.
No man in the country fought this
influence harder than Col. T. 3. Robin
son, who is an applicant for the Col
lectors Office. He was always in the
hottest line of battle. and verify spent
fine bluegrass farm in waging war
against this Republican influence.
These statements are founded on facts
that are as incontrovertihle as those
upon which any statements are based.
Giving him the Office would be just
and consistent with the claims that are
being urged in behalf of a candidate
for U. S. Senator because he was de-
prived of his rights in the past.
Let US reason together and do that
which we know is right and consistent
with facts and truths as immutable
as those upon which any proposition
rests. Democrat.
