"WatchfuI Waiting. +"

When M. M. Redwine was run
ming for the nomination against
j. B. Hannah, his plea was that
he only wanted the remaining
two years of Judge Kinner's
term and then he would retire.
He did not get those two years.
but after four years of watch
full waiting" he got two years
and three months of Judge Han
nah's unexpired term. Did that
satisfy him? Did he then retire?
No, as soon as he was sworn in,
or before, he became a candidate
for the next six years. If given
six years more would he retire?
Would he want another last
chance" Adv.

Wasting Money.

An ex-office holder, who is said
to be assisting a long-term re-

joining district, dropped in to the
32nd Judicial District recently,
and on behalf of the old stall fed
crowd, who for many years have
lived on the fat of the land, in his
suave, convincing air, said, "the
state wastes lots of money in
breaking in new Judges" "Oh
Shades of Shakespeare" Did
ever a Judge waste more money
than his dear friend M. M. Red
wine? 16 out of II criminal cases
appealed from his judgments have
been reversed by the highest
court of the state, and had to be
tried over because of his failure
to follow plain, settled law. One

tried the fourth time. Could q

good cross road from the Elliott
line to Greenup county. He was
reversed in a murder case in
Lawrence because he did not
know, or forgot, the indetermi-

cost, and was a waste, of over
$S00.00 of the states money.

by the use Of instrumentalitles Of ma
val warfare which the nations OF the
world can not have had in view when
the existing rules of international law
were formulated, and 1t is ready to
make every reasonable allowance for
these novel and unexpected aspects
Of war at sea, but 1t can not consent
to abate any essential or fundamental
right of its people because Of mere
alienation of circumstance. The
rights of neutrals in time of war are
based upon principle, not upon expe-
diency, and the principles are immu-
table. 1t is the duty and obligation of
belligerents to find way to adapt the
new circumstances to them.
The events of the past two months
have clearly indicated that 1t is pos
sible and practicable to conduct such
submarine operations as have char
acterized the activity of the Imperial
German navy within the so.called
war zone in substantial accord with
the accepted practices of regulated
warfare. The whole world has looked
with interest and increasing satisfac-
tion at the demonstration of that pos
sibility by German naval command
ers. 1t Is manifestly possible, there
fore, to lift the whole practice Of sub
marine attack above the criticism
which 1t has aroused and remove the
/ chief causes of offense.
In view of the admission of illegal
ity made by the Imperial Government
when 1t pleaded the right of retalia-
tion in defense of its acts, and in
view of the manifest possibility of
conforming to the established rules
OF naval warfare, the Government of
the United States can not believe that
the Imperial Government will longer
refrain from disavowing the wanton
act of its naval commander in sinking
the Lusitania, or from Offering repar.
alton for the American lives lost, so
far as reparation can be made for a
needless destruction of human life
by an illegal act.
The Government of the United
States, while not Indifferent to the
friendly spirit in which 1t is made,
can not accept the suggestion of the
Imperial German Government that
certain vessels be designated and
agreed upon which shall be free on
the seas now illegally prescribed
The very agreement would, by impli
cation, subject other vessels to illegal
attack, and would be a curtailment
and therefore an abandonment of the
principles for which this government
contends, and which in times of calm
er counsels every nation comedies al
of course.
