Supreme Court Decision.

The much-mooted question Of
whether the state or the counties
are liable for the board Of prisoners
convicted of felonies but whose pun
ishment is committed to Jail or
workhouse sentences was put at
rest by the decision Of the supreme
court Saturday in the case Of W. W.
Davidson ct al. VS.. Gibson county.
Under former holding Of the SUI
preme court, the larger counties Of
the state had presented cost bills
amounting to several thousand dol
lars, claiming that they had paid
such board bills to that amount and
that they we're entitled to be re-im-
bursed from the state treasury. The
holding Of the court Saturday was
that the state is liable for the board
Of such prisoners while they are
held in Jail for safekeeping, but that
the counties are liable for the board
while they are held in the county
at hard labor. 1t is un-
derstood that this holding will deny

COMMUNICATED.

The resolutions that were adopted
by the Republican convention in
Lexington shows very conclusively
that its ever motive was actuated
solely by its every dominating fac
tor, that of wanton, willful political
prejudice and malice. Coupled with
simple ignorance for which possibly
they are not responsible, and we re-
gret with profound sincerity that
our own county seems to be the
very hotbed and terminating center
of partisan politics as can clearly
be seen by reading the names of
some Of the delegates that were
chosen to represent their party at
the state convention, more especial
ly some Of those from the 5th dis
trict. Now where is the consisten-
CIV Of such an unwarranted action?
And what wisdom is there display
ed in criticising the actions Of those
who are far superior in every way
to the critic. Woodrow Wilson is
not a perfect man and does not
claim immunity from mistakes, but
it can be said to his credit that he
possesses such a high degree of
American democracy that he has
never been seized with a sudden
halucination that premature mil
lenium could be established on earth
through the medium Of fanatical
legislation, although by taking
cool and deliberate thought he has
thus far kept us out Of bloody
conflict with other nations which is
only a relic Of grossest barbarian
ism. If the hot headed agitators
that are clamoring for war and fur
nishine the wind work were made to
shoulder a gun and do the fighting
themselves, there would never be
any more wars. And if some peo-
pie in Henderson county were placed
at the helm Of this government, who
are criticising Wilson at every whip |
stitch, they would be like the fellow
hat was sgoing to hold the wild
mule. They would play HI
TIL WNsLow.

G. W. Long. proprietor of the Val dez Iron Works, says that business is picking up with the beginning of spring, and that he looks for pros porous season, as many new mines are opening, up and the large auto business over the trail this summer will bring considerable work to Val deg.
 MT. Long has one of the largest and best equipped shops north of &c., attle, and can turn out any kind of a job known to metal users. His shop is especially fitted to handle heavy work, and he has large braz- ing outfit which eliminates the ne- cessities of miners waiting for new parts to broken machinery, as the old piece can he brazed so it is stronger at the break than when new.
 This institution means lot to Val dez. and should be encouraged in ev- cry possible way.

Country Is Torn with Rebellion Against the Re-establishment of a ing the Reins of Power.

PEkIN, March 23.-An official an- nouncement was made today that the plan to establish a monarchy in Chi ma, with President Yuan Shi Kai as emperor, has been abandoned. and that the Republican form of govern ment will be continued.
 This change of attitude on the part of the President and his officials is believed due to the many uprisings which have broken out throughout the country. A major portion of the country is now in state of rebellion against the government because of the contemplated change. Rebel lead CTS declare that the OevrthrOw of the Manchu dynasty and the establish ment of a republican form of govern ment was accomplished after years of struggle and much bloodshed, and that they will fight to extermination to prevent the restoration of mon archy with Yuan Shi Kai as the ruler. They state that if the monarchy is restored they much prefer the estab- lishment of the rightful monarch on the throne that the reins of power should not be seized by the Presi- dent
