Results Not Entirely Satisfactory

Rosine, Ky, Nov. ll.-Editor Re-
publican--With pleasure and regret
bow to the will OF the voters of
Ohio county Nov. 4, 1918. With much
pleasure l received the news OF the
success of our candidates, who were
elected. but was truly hurt fer those
of our ticket who wentdown in de-
feat. Am frank to say each candi-
date Of the Republican rarty was OPP
posed by a man in every way quail
ified and a gentleman well worthy
the confidence placed in him by the
voters of Ohio county. Will say |
am only too proud of the good show
ing made by a combination of the
two factions of the old time RepuO-
llcans in Ohio county. Now in my
humble opinion, three weeks before
the election our county would have
elected full Democratic ticket, but
things got SO warm by the enthus-
iasm shown by the Democrats
laughing. and talking about the split
in our ranks caused many hard
heart TO melt. and as things be-
gan to show signs of Democratic
victory. 1t caused their hearts to be
kneaded together, and in ten days
more we could have elected our en-
tire ticket by a good majority.
l wish the Democrats all good
luck. the good Lord has ever in
tended for them to have, and re-
joice over their men just elected,
for they have always fought a good
fight and only lost because they
failed to rally to the rooster. Those
brave old chicks knew their food
was always kept in the barn, an inn
age OF the log cabin.
With love and friendship TO all
and malace toward none. l am always
ready to accept victory or bow to
a defeat. PERRY CROWDER.

THE EMBARGO
Mexican Rebels Could Get
Arms From Us.
Ministers From Central American
States Kept Informed by Sec
retary Of State Bryan.

Washington, Nov. 1O.-Develop-
ments in the Mexican situation here
today tended TO emphasize the
Washington governments purpose
to refuse to recognize any acts of
the new Mexican congress, and de-
veloped the fact that the president
is seriously considering permitting
the expectation of arms to all the
factions in Msxico.
Secretary Bryan summoned the
ministers from the five Central
American countries, and outlined to
them what has been done by the
United States in the diplomatic ex-
changes with Huerta government.
He later announced he had been In
communication with diplomatic rep
resentatives of the European powers
and informed them of hhe steps the
United States had taken so far.
1t is reported that some OF these
diplomats had transmitted long dis
patches to their home governments
descibing the situation as ap-
preaching closer to a complete break
in the relations between the United
States and Mexico, than at any time
since the Mexican problem began
to be troublesome.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE ad-

pending currency bill before the con-

II an ...DIrst ia the senate floO-
today. Senator Hitchcock of Ne
Draska, who has voted as 'anti7ad-

he would not change his convictions
even to meet the presidents view
with would prevent his voting his
convictions. Senator Reed OF Mis-
souri, declared that the time has not

partisan deliberations in the ecom-
mittee continue. The committee
made two Intellectual attempts to get
down to work today. Another at
tempt will be made tomorrow to get
the committee together on the bill,
but little success is expected to at
tend the effort.
81 would not permit myself to be
bound by the decisions OF a secret
caucus on an important matter of
legislation like this declared Mr.
Hitchcock. 81 am assured by a num-
ber OF senators on this side that they
are equally opposed to a secret leg
islative proceeding. The senate Is
the proper place to discuss this bill"
Mr.. Hitchcock spoke of outside
influences" brought upon the COM
mirtee when its members were told
the prsidenet could not accept the
decision of the majority.
IL feel that when ihe senate re-
fers to a committee Van important
bill of this character the senate is
entitled to have members of the CON-
mittee examine it carefully and vote
according to- their own convictions
and beliefs"
Senator Kern, chairman of the
Democratic caucus, replied to Sena-
tor Hitchcock, declaring it was not
proposed to hold a binding caucus
nor to vote on the currency bill in

MOTHER KILLS
HER CHILD
Afterwards Turns Gun
Upon Herself.
Crazed By News Of Death Of Her
Husband-B. L.
Banks.

Richmond, KY, November 11.-Mrs.
Benjamin l.. Banks, one of the most
prominent women in Kentucky, TO-
day shot and killed her only child,
a boy twelve years of age, and then
blew out her own brains, at her home
upon receipt of the news announcing
the sudden death of pneumonia Of
her husband in Adair county. Mrs.
Banks was formerly the secretary Of
the state Federation of Women's
clubs.
Mrs. Banks had taken the sudden
death of her husband very calmly,
apparently. Late last night neigh
bors and friends who were at her
home repaired to another part Of one
house that Mrs. Banks and the only
might get some sleep. Mrs. Banks
handed her brother some private pa-
pers of her husbands and asked him
to read them over. He went down
stairs to do so. Shortly afterwards
a noise like chairs turning over at
tracted him to his sisters room. He
found the door locked. He broke It
open and found the mother lying
across her son in bed. The child
was dead. Mrs. Banks breathed On
ly few minutes.
The body of Mr.. Banks will be
buried at his parents home in Adair
county, while the mother and son
will be buried here. A brother,
George Banks. of Texas, is expected
here. Ben Banks was one of the
best known business men in this
city. He was partner of the cloth
ing firm of COvington u Banks.

The Cost of Carelessness.

A boy was killed a few days ago
while hunting with is father. A gun
left, cooked, against fence was the
direct cause of the disaster. 1t was
the cost of carelessness.
In Massachusetts a fatal railroad
wreck resulted In the death of so
or more people. A broken rail, over
looked by the trackwalker, was the
careless cause of this accident.
A cigarette carelessly thrown in a
compartment filled with perishable
freight caused the spectacular burn
ing of the VoltuMo.
The cost of carelessness cannot be
estimated.
OF especial interest during the
hunting season is the ultimate re-
port OF disasters and the accompany
ing admission that all have been due
to carelessness.
The gun is not necessarily danger
Gus. The careful hunter rarely has
an accident. Carefully handled, there
need be no fear. When in the ex-
citement OF the hunt men lose their
head an accident is usually the re-
suit. Sitting on fence with his gun
between his legs. a well-known Men,
ph.an at the opening of the season
lost two fingers. A still sadder in
stance may be cited of the recent
case OF man and his wife hunting
from a boat on Horn Lake. The wo-
man was padding with her back
turned. There was a gun report and
her husband hay with his llfe's blood
ebbing out In the bottom of the boat
He never regained consciousness, and
the distressed wife had to carry his
body ashore. II was found that he
had probably been leaning over the
barrel OF the gun. forgetting that
II was cooked. Here one simple act
OF carelessness caused the loss OF
life.
Those who expect to 30 hunting
this season should give more atten-
tion to the dangers which, with a
little care, can be easily avoided.
Hundreds OF accidents will be re-
ported during the coming season. II
