commander chose the latter, both on
account of the facility of access and
for the purpose of destroying the fleet

ken refuge in its creeks. This object
was successfully accomplished on Au-

Manila Buildings Must Be Ratproof.
The municipal board of Manila has
passed an ordinance providing that all
buildings constructed in the city here
after must be ratproof. This measure

with the exception of those of solid
wood, must be of concrete, brick,
stone, mortar, or other material that
will keep out rats, to height of one
meter (3.2S feet from the ground, and
must extend below the surface of the
ground at least twice the thickness of
the wall. All hollow construction is
forbidden except it be without aper-

cannot make their way. A penalty is
provided for violation Of the provi-
sions of the ordinance of fine not ex-
ceeding 500 or Imprisonment for not

1T was not the method of Jesus.
He lived in an age Of total abstinence

emphasized the distinction between
His methods and those of John the

came eating and drinking. He con-
demned drunkenness, but never In =

condemnation Of drinking. On tha

The Cause OF Divorces.

The records of the Louisville
Circuit Court show that 900 of
the divorce cases brought there
are from runaway marriages,
where the ceremony is perform
ed in Jacksonville, the place of
note for runaway marriages. This
proves the folly of elopements
for premature marriages of the
younger people. The old proverb
"think twice before you act"
will most often apply to young
people who have nothing in mind
but to get married. They gener-
ally act twice before they have
time to think once.

Claude M. Thomas, ex-senator

Il candidate for Congress in this
district. In our editori Al col
umns we state that he has not
announced, but this page was
printed yesterday before his an
nouncement appeared in the af-
ternoon papers. His card fol-
lows:
"To the Democrats of the Sew
enth Congressional District:
81 hereby announce myself a
candidate for your nomination as
Representative In Congress, sub.
ject to the action you shall take
in the August primary.
II make this announcement at
the request of Democrats of each
of the twelve counties having a
voice in the decision of the mat
ter, and make 1t believing that a
large majority of the Democrats
of this district, dependent as we
are upon agriculture, desire to be
represented in Washington by
one who will interpret their wish
es and further their interests in
all matters affected by Congress
sional action.
IL make it secondly, because l
believe the foremost and supreme
question in our domestic politics
is the control of the saloon and
liquor business, and that the
Democrats of this district are
ambitious for representation that
would have supported the Webb
Kenyon bill, and that will, be-
yond doubt or question, labor
and vote to maintain it upon the
statutes. That there may be no
doubt as to my position upon this
and kindred matters / wish every
Democrat to know in advance of
his casting vote for me that |
am opposed to everything for
which the saloon stands. If you
nominate and elect me as your
Representative | pledge every
possible effort to render you a
faithful service.
