UNFORTUVATES MIX
 IN F|ST|C BATTLE

Sitting in the sheriff's office waiting to be committed to the state hispital for the insane, G. Navarro and Juan Sanchez engaged in a fistic fight until separated by the officers.
 Navarro quietly arose from his chair and went toward the water tank but instead of taking drink gave Sanchez a resounding blow. He declared that the latter was laughing at him. San chez had smiled continuously for hours a knowing little leer which he believes a part of the detective's game. He be- lieves that he is Sherlock Holmes.

When Joe Moreno retired on Monday night he hung his trousers, containing S6S in currency and a gold watch, on the back of chair in his room.

 Moreno reported the loss to the police immediately and Policemen Blea and McGrath were assigned to the case. Policeman Blea followed the footprints of man laading from the window of | the house on Ninth avenue to a house on Fifth avenue where he suspected the man lived. Blea alleges that when he entered the house of the supposed thief he was confronted by a woman who said she was alone in the house. Blea, however, thought otherwise and claims to have found Rosas hiding in the bath room of the house,

HE'D QUIT THRONE
FOR FATHERLAND

London. Oct. 3O.-"If the moment
comes when the interests of Germany
demand it, should abdicate without
hesitation; but the moment does not
seem to have come"
Emperor William is quoted as hav-
ing said this in an address to a num-
Der of members of the German Reich
stag, according to a dispatch to the
Exchange Telegraph from Amster-
dam, quoting adyices from Berlin.
The emperor said the people must
not think he had decided to re-
main on the throne at all costs.
The dispatch adds that II is gen
orally believed in Berlin that II the
emperor abdicates il will be in favor
of Prince William, the eldest son Of
the German Crown Prince.

sures. Republicans have supported the
political lines on essential war mea-
important measures called for by the
administration, and saved from de-
feat at the hands of the Democratic
majority some vital legislation.
without which we could not have
modified successful army in time to
have saved the world from German
domination-the CONSUMPTION act.
1t was Champ Clark, the Democratic
Speaker of the House, who came from
the Chair TO the floor to oppose it,
while Representative Kahn, a Re-
publican of California, led the fight
for and carries it with Repu blican
votes, in the face of Democratic op-
position.
The Republicans are not claiming
credit for their loyalty, nor for per-
forming a plain duty, but they should
and do resent the recent letter of the
President, calling on the people to
send Democratic Representatives to
Congress this fall instead of Repub-
licans. 1t is he, from his high
place, who seeks to name the four
hundred and odd districts in the
United States, who shall represent
the people in Congress. His specifi-
cations are simple-just simply
Democrat. He might have said a
deserving Democrat. That would
have left some lee-way to many
thousand Democrats in this State who
do not wish or intend to elect Gov.
Stanley.
The election of a Congress in this
great Republic is a constitutional
right, and a duty devolvipg upon
the voters of the individual districts,
and they select candidates and choose
between them as to fitness and compe-
tency first, and politics second, and
there is no chance for disloyal can
didate to get his name on the bal
lot, at least there is no charge of
disloyalty in Kentucky, and the peo-
pie should resent any insinuation of
ii, coming from the seat of govern
ment President Mckinley did not
issue such an appeal in 1898 when
Congress was being chosen dur
ing the Spanish-American war, but
we recall that he kept aloof from
political leanings in choosing high
commissioners and army officers, as a
compliment for their non-partisan
support. We hold Mr. Wilson in high
esteem, and regret to see him re-
verse his expressed desire to see
politics sidetracked for the duration
of the war.

STRAY STREAKS

ing to get a news item, but during

John Henry to do something for her
and John pleaded lack of time, when
the lady says, What you doing,
printin' lies?"
We are getting mighty tired of
carrying peace notes and PROPOSE
tions for an armistice 'twixt Bat Nall
and John Henry. They are each in
constant dread and mortal fear, lest
the other sneaks up behind in the
dark and gets the drop. They agreed
to fight it out the other day with
deadly weapons. Bat armed himself
with a wet sponge and Thomas Sc
lected feather buster, at which Bat
completely baked, saying that he
never could stand to have feathers
smeard around under his chin.

the creek, strange to say when he hit
the NJ. III. & E., he took the end that
brought him homeward. King took
the opposite course and all that kept
him from going to Taylor Mines was
the open country and Beaver Dam on
this side. They finally managed to
back home about one and half and
two hours after dark. We suggest
that the boys wear bells when on
hunting excursions.
