A Measure That Would be Popular

If the Democratic yarty, which
is to control the next session of
the Kentucky General Assembly
wishes to enact a law that is
proper, and overwhelmingly pop
ular at the same time it will re-
peal the law by which the cleo
tion of the County Superintend-
ent was taken away from the
people.
The people of the State have just
spoken in very decisive terms
upon the proposal to take the
election of State Superintendent
away from the people. AS the
Office of County Superintendent
comes great deal nearer home
to the citizen than the State
Superintendent, there is an even
stronger reason why the County
than the State Superintendent
should be chosen by popular
vote.
The passage Of a bill restoring
the old system would not only be
a just measure, but it would not
only be a just measuse, but it
would be a sagacious political
move for the Democrats to make.
The law taking the selection of
the County Superintendent away
from the people was passed by a
Republican General Assembly at
the instance of Gov. Morrow and
Mr.. Colvin. Their program has
been given a stinging rebuke by
the people. Why should not the
Democrats at Frankfort this win
ter do the just as well as the ex-
pedient thing, in restoring the
peoples rights in this instance?

Napoleon dreaded and yet wished It;
Josephine shrank from the idea with
a shuddering horror but she felt that
it was inevitable. Napoleon after pre-
liminary defeats won triumphant
victory at Wagram. This put the
naughty emperor OF Austria in his
power and he at once demanded the
hand of his daughter Marie Louise in

invited the kings whose crowns he had
given and the highest in the state to
assemble before him. At this meeting
he announced his intended separation
from Josephine. She had been private
~ informed by him Of his purpose the
night before in a heart-rending inter-
view. He had shown the greatest Of
kindness to her and had stayed up the
entire night going constantly to her
room to ask II she was better and
begging her to be brave for the sake
of France. In the public meeting the
next day he spoke in the very highest
terms of the deep affection and the
loving devotion she had given him and
his reverent love for her She had
written her consent TO the divorce and

might have made.
