Hon. Claude B. Terrell.

drawing near the democratic
voters of Graves county are be
ginning to cast about for the
most suitable man to nominate
for the Office of state Treasurer.
Very little attention so far
has been paid to this Office al
though an important one, but in
the past week or so the name of
Hon. Claude gB. Terrell of
Trimble county,is beginning to
become very popular among the
democratic voters of Graves
cou nty for this Important place
on the state ticket.
Although Mr.. Terrell lives
probably 300 miles from here in
Trimble county, yet there are
hundreds of peoplein this county
who know Mr.. Terrell and many
more who are familiar with him
as an able Democrat and a friend
of the great common people.
They know tina. he has been a
member of the legislature per-
haps three times and has been
elected speaker of the lower
house twice without opposition !;
they know that he was born ard
educated in Kentucky, that he is
a self made man and has always
been tirelessN worker for the
good. Of the people and the dem
l'ocTatic party; they know he is a
man of. fairness. broadminded
man is liberal Lhis-.views not
only to Democrats, but to Repub-
licans; they know that he is a
public.spirited man and that
while in the Legislature he sup
ported all the measures that had
tendency to benefit the MAORI
ty of the people they know that
he is a great friend to education
and constant fighter for good
roads, good morals and a general
uplift in the entire state; they
know that besi6 les his legislative
duties he is fitted for other i'm
portant places; they know that
for a number of years he has
been a member of the board of
trustees of the State University
at Lexington and that he has TAX
en- an active part in the conduct
of that great educational institu-
ton; they know that if he is
and elected to the
Office of State Treasurer that they
can be assured that the affair of
that office will be conducted hon
estly and according to law.
Since these people have become
familiar enough with him and
his life, they now believe that it
is right and proper that his
public services should be con.
tinued by nominating and elect
ing him to this administration
office.
All of these things being true,
his friends should not be surpris-
ed that he will carry Graves
county by handsome majority.

IL is claimed that the conspiracy
stretched from the Atlantic to the
facihc, with ramlncations in Philadel-
phia. Newport News. New Orleans and

ain Boy-Ed obtained between $500. 900
and 5000. 900 from a fund cabied to New
YORK from Germany; and hat he
despatched food and provisions from
San Francisco to the cruisers Lelpsic
and Dresden.
Insofar as the defendants in this case
violated the laws of the United States,
they should be punished. From an in
ternational point Of view. the Germans
had exactly as much right to secure
coal and provision here as the British
or the French. Indeed under interna-
tional law the German warships them
selves could come into our ports to
secure supplies and remain twenty-four
hours. II there was fault, it was in the
way In which supplies for the German
warships were secured in this country;

DETERMINED TO DIE POOR,

Andrew Carnegie says ne has only
e3i.0o0.0O left. and most of that will go
70 the poor. Some people will say
"How sad 1t mus, be to be so reduced
in ciroumstancesr" When NO bear in
mind. however. tho fact that Mr.. Car
neg!e has already given away the
enormous sum OF $3.50. 900. coo in his deter.
mination to die poor. not to mention the
tntcres' on the funds invested in en-
~dowInents. the situation takes on an en-
tirely different aspect.
We get at the philosophy underlying
this situation when We recall the fact
that the ambition Of the great majority
of men Is to die rich. Andrew Car
negie has distinguished himself from
the common class by determining to die
poor. He has run the whole gamut of
struggle as a youth. ambition to do
things. eagerness to become rich. He
has discovered what thousands upon
thousands have learned for themselves
in turn. that riches do not count for
true happiness. unless the wealth en-
trusted for a little while to our steward
ship Is put to some useful purpose.
To determine to die rich is common
prosaic. some will say natural, For a

government to prove its charges that
Boy-Ed has been prlvy to conspiracy

The significant feature OF the case
so far as Boy-Ed is concerned Is that,
being n diplomat, he is not liable to
indictment in this country. If the
charges against him should be proved.
the most that can happen is a request
by our government for his recall.
The government contends that the

A PROGRESSIVE CONVENTION PRE-


AT a conference of the national execu-
tive committee of the Progressive party
in New York the decision was reached
to hold a national convention in 1916.
in January to choose n place and fix the
date. Chairman George w. Perkins in
sists that the progresslves must name
a ticket in 1916. When Committeeman
Gardner of Maine. who sat near the
Vermont delegation in the republican
national convention Of 1912. was asked
publican convention in 1916 should be
deadlocked with the nomination Of
Hughes as a result he said:
I'm the first place I do not look for
Hughes nomination. He has said he
would not run under any circumstances.
Again progressives throughout the coun-
try. and l have travelled it extensively,
insist upon a ticket of their own. And
1t certainly looks as though they would
have it. I told you months ago l look
for four presidential tickets next year.
The progressives are disposed to go
right ahead and nominate. That was
the unanimous sentiment OF the national
executive committee at to-day's meet
