Retracted by Rev Hunt liTo the Public It is because I wish to wrong no man that this statement is made On two occasions recently in addressing myself to the temperance question I have given publicly the report that the liquor interests ot Kentucky were willing to put up a campaign fund of 100000 in order to secure the election of A E Willson the Republican can didate for Governor My words as to this league between Mr Willson and theliquor interests were made upon what appeared to be high authority Since making the remarks above referred to I have been thoroughly convinced that the story has no foundation in fact and so I not only withdraw my words but express my pro found regret that I should have been led by what I thought good authority to the giving of currency to a false story M P

Jefferson left the room and Ryde senior as If exhausted by thevlolenc of his own outburst sank back llm in his chair The crisis be dreaded had come at list His son had openly defied his authority and was going toe marry the daughter of his enemy must do something to prevent It the marriage must not take place butwhaQ could he do The boy was of age an legally his own master He could do nothing to restrain bis actions units they put him in an Insane asylum He would rather see his eon there he mused than married to the Rossmon womanPresently there was a timid knock at the library door Ryder rose from his seat and went to see who was there To his surprise It was Miss GreenMay I come In asked Shirley Certainly by all means Sit down He drew up a chair for her and hU manner was so cordial that it was easy to see she was a welcome visitor Mr Ryder she began in a low tremulous voice I have come to see you on a very Important matter Ive been waiting to see you all evening and as I shall be here only a short time longer I want to ask you a great fa vor perhaps the greatest you were ever asked I want to ask you for mercyfor mercy to She stopped and glanced nervously at him but she saw he was paying no attention to what she was saying He was puffing heavily at his cigar entirely preoccupied with his own thoughts Her sudden silence aroused him He apologized- Oh iI excuse me I didnt quite catch what you were saying She said nothing wondering what had happened to render him so absent minded lie read the question In her face for turning toward her he ex claimedFor the first time In my life I am face to face with defeat defeat of the most Ignominious kind Incapacity In ability to regulate my own Internal af fairs I can rule a government but I cant manage my own family my own son Im a failure Tell me he add ed appealing to her why cant I rule iny own household why cant I govern my own child Why CAnt you govern yourself said Shirley quietly Ryder looked keenly at her for a moment without answering her question then an If prompter by a sudden inspiration he said You cnn help me but not by preach- Ing at me This Is the first time In my life I ever called on a living soul for help Im only accustomed to deal with men This tlrno theres a woman In the case and I need your womans wit How con I help your asked Shirley I dont know he answered with suppressed excitement uAs I told you I am up agaluat a blank wall I cant see my way He gave a nervous lit tle laugh and went on Im ashamed of myselfashamed Did you ever read tho fablo of the Lion and the Mouse Well I want you to gnaw with your sharp womans teeth at the cords which bind the son of John Bur kett Ryder to this Rosamore woman I want you to be the mouse to set me free of this disgraceful entanglement How asked Shirley calmly Ah thats just ithow he replied Cant you thinkyoure a woman you have youth beautybrains He stopped and eyed hor closely until she reddened from tho embarrassing scru tiny Then ho blurled out By George Marry him yourself force him to let go of this othor woman Why not Come what do you say This unexpected suggestion came upon Shirley with all the force of a violent shock She Immediately saw the falseness of her position This man was asking for her hand wfor his son under tho impression that she was an other woman It would bo dishonors ble of her to keep up the deception any longer She passed her hand over her face to conceal her confusion Youyou must glvo mo time to think she stammered Suppose I dont love your son I should want something Bonicthlng to compensate Something to compensate echoed Ryder surprised and a little discon ccrtedUWhy the boy will Inherit millions I dont know how many Nono not money rejoined Shir ley Money only compensates those who love money Its something els9 a mans honor n mans life It means nothing to you He gazed at her not understanding Full of his own project he had mind for nothing else Ignoring therefore the question of compensation what ever she might mean by that he con ilnued Ii You can win him If you make tip I I I your mind to A woman with your re otherowoman But It he loves Judge Rossmore1 daughter objected Shirley Its for you to make him forget her and you can replied the financier con OdenU1uM7 desire Is to separate him from this Rossmore woman at any cost You must help me His stern ness relaxed somewhat and his eyes rested on her kl dlTuDo you know I should be glad to think you wont have arminegopYou ask me to be your sons wife and you know nothing of my family said Shirley I know you That is sufficient he replied ShirleyQmore constancy more strength of character than you think and far more I principle than you have So much the greater the victory for you he answered good bumoredly Ah she said reproachfully you do not love your son I do love him replied Ryder warm ly Its because I love him that Im such a fool In this matter Dont you see that If he marries this girl It would separate us and I should lose him 1 I dont want to lose him If I welcomed her to my house it would make me the laughing stock of all my friends and business associates Come will you Join forces with me Shirley shook her head and was about to reply when the telephone bell rang Ryder took up the receiver and spoke to the butler downstairs Whos that Judge Stott Tell him Im too busy to see any one Whats that A mans life at stake Whats that to do with me Tell him On hearing Stotts name Shirley nearly betrayed herself She turned pale and half started up from her chair Something serious must have happened to bring her fathers legal adviser to the Ryder residence at such an hour She thought he was In Washington Could it be that the proceedings in the senate were ended and the result known She could hardly conceal her anxiety and Instinctively she placed her hand on Ryders arm No Mr Ryder do see Judge Stott You must see him I know who he is Your son has told me Judge Stott Is one of Judge Rossmores advisers See him You may find out something about the girl You may find out where she Is If Jefferson finds out you have refused to see her fathers friend at such a critical time It will only make him sympathize more deep ly with the Rossmorea and you know sympathy Is akin to love Thats what you want to avoid Isnt It Ryder still held the telephone hesi tating what to do What she said sounded like good sense Upon my word he said You may be right and yet Am I to help you or not demand ed ShlrleTuYou said you wanted a womans wit Yes said Ryder but still Then you had better see him she said emphatically Hyder turned to the telephone Hello Jorklns are you there Show Judge Stott up here He laid the re celver down and turned again to Shir ley Thats one thing I dont like about you he said I allow you to decide against me and then I agree with you She said nothing and ha went on looking at her admiringly I predict that youll bring that boy to your feet within a month I dont know why but I seem to feel that be is attracted to you already Thank heaven You havent a lot of troublesome relations I think you said you were almost alone In the world Dont look so serious he added laughing Jeff Is a tine fellow and believe me an excellent catch as the world goes Shirley raised her hand as If entreat- Ing him to desist Oh dont dont please My post tion Is so false You dont know how false It Isl she cried At that Instant the library door was thrown open and the butler appeared ushering In Stott Tho lawyer looked anxious and his disheveled appear once Indicated that he had come direct from the train Shirley scanned his taco narrowly in the hope that sho might read there what bad happened Ho walked right past her giving no sign of recognition and advanced direst toward Ryder who bad risen and remained standing at his desk Perhaps I bad better go ventured Shirley although tortured by anxiety- to hear the news from Washington- No said Ryder quickly Judge Stott will detain me but a very few moments The way to Ret rid of a cold whether it be a bad cold or just a little one Isi to get it out of your system through the bowels Nearly all Cough Cures especially those that contain opiates are constipating Kennedys Laxative Cough Syrup contains no opiates and acts gently OH the bowels letto take Sold by all druggists Having delivered himself of this del kato hint he looked toward his visitor as If inviting him to come to the point aft rapidly as possible I must apologize for Intruding at this unseemly hour sir said Stotl but time is precious The senate meets tomorrow to vote If anything is to bo done for Judge Rossmore It must ibo done tonight u1 fall to see why you address yourself to me In this matter sir replied Ryder with asperity As Judge Rossmores friend and counsel answered Stott I am 1m pelted to ask your help at this critical moment The matter Is in the hands of the United States senate sir replied Ry der coldly They are against him I cried Stott Not one senator Ive spoken to holds out any hope for him It he is convict ed It will mean his death Inch by inch his life Is leaving him The only thing that can save him is the good news of the senates refusal to find him guilty Stott was talking so excitedly and loudly toot neither he nor Ryder heard the low moan that came from the corner of the room where Shirley wfstanding listening I can do nothing repeated Ryder coldly and ne turned his back and be gan to examine some papers lying on his desk as It to notify the caller that the Interview was ended But Stott was not so easily discouraged He went on uAs I understand It they will vote on strictly party lines and the party iin power Is against him Hes a marked man You have the power to help him Heedless of Ryders gesture of Impatience be continued When I left his bedside tonight sir I promised to return to him with good news I have told him that the senate ridicules the charges against him I must return to him with good news Hels very 111 tonight sir He halted for a moment and glanced in Shirleys direction and slightly raising his voice so she might hear he added If he gets worse we shall send for his daughter Whore Is his daughter demanded Ryder suddenly interested She Is working in her fathers In terests replied Stott and he added significantly HI believe with some hope of successHe Shirley a quick questioning look She nodded affirmatively Ryder who had seen nothing of this byplay said with a sneer Surely you didnt come here tonight- to tell me this No sir I did not He took from his pocket two lettersthe two which Shirley had sent himand held them out for Ryders Inspection These let ters from Judge Rossmore to you he said show you to be acquainted with the fact that he bought those shares 8S- an Investment and did not receive them as a bribe When he caught sight of the letters and ho realized what they were Ryder changed color Instinctively his eyes sought the drawer on the left band tide of his desk In a voice that was unnaturally calm be asked Why dont you produce them before the senate It was too late explained Stott handing them to the financier I re ceived them only two days ago But It- rou come forward and declare Ryder made an effort to control him self Ill do nothing of the kind I refuse to move In the matter That Is final And now sir he added raising his voIce and pointing to the letters I wish to know how comes It that you had In your possession private correspondence addressed to mef That I cannot answer replied Stott promptlyFrom whom did you receive these letters demanded Ryder Stott was dumb while Shirley clutched at her chair as It she would fall The financier repeated the question- I must decline to answer replied Stott finally- Shirley left her place and came slow ly forward Addressing Ryder she saidul wish to make a statement The financier gazed at her In astonishment What could she know about It be wondered and ho waited with You have the power to help him curiosity to bear what she was going to say But Stott Instantly realized that she was about to take the blame upon herself regardless of the consequences to the success of their cause This must be prevented at all hazards even If another must be sacrificed so Interrupting her be said hastily to RyderJudge Rossmores life and honor are at stake and no false sense of del icacy must cause the failure of my ob ject to save him These letters were seat to me by your son ILII1 clal edByder starting Ffrtf mumewna viasju yea as If ho had received a blow Ho was too much overcome to sppak or actIhimself lieThen recovering rang bell and turned to Stott with renews d furySo be cried this man this Juflge whose honor Is at stake and his daugh ter who most likely has no honor at stake between them have made a thle and alifrotmysonFaImI to his fa ther false to his party And you sir have thepreauinptldn to chine here and ask me to Intercede for himI To the butler who entered be said See 1 ff Mr Jefferson Is still In the house I he Is tell him I would like to see him hero at once The man disappeared and Ryder strode angrily up and down the room with the letters In his hand Then turning abruptly on Stott he said And now sir I think nothing more remains to be said I shall keep these letters as they are my property As you please Good night sir Good night replied Ryder no looking up With a significant glance at Shirley who motioned to him that she migh- yet t succeed where he had tailed Ste left the room Ryder turned to Slit ley His fierceness of manner soften edl down as he addressed the girl You see what they have done to my son Yes replied Shirley its the girls fault If Jefferson hadnt loved bet you would have helped the judge Ah why did they ever meet She bas worked on his sympathy and hehtook these letters for her sake not tc Injure you Oh you must make some allowance for him Ones sympathy gets aroused in spite of oneself Ever I feel sorry for these people Dont replied Ryder grimly sympathy Is often weakness Ah there you arel turning to Jefferson who en tered the room at that moment You sent for mo father Yes said Ryder senior holding up the letters Have you ever seen these letters before Jefferson took tho letters and ex amined them Then he passed them back to his father and said frankly uYes I took them out of your desk and sent them to Mr Stott in the hope- tbey would help Judge Rossmorea caseRyder restrained himself from pro ceeding to actual violence only with the greatest difficulty His face grew white as death his lips were compress ed his hands twitched convulsively his eyes flashed dangerously He too another cigar to give the Impression that he bad himself well under con trol but the violent trembling of his hands as he lit it betrayed the terrifi- strain he was under So he said you deliberately sac rificed my interests to save this w mans fatheryou hear him Miss Green Jefferson my boy I think its time you and I had a final account ing Shirley made a motion as It about to withdraw He stopped her jvith a ges turePlease dont go Miss Green As the writer of my biography you are sum lontly well acquainted with my tam lIy affairs to warrant your being present at the epilogue Besides I want an excuse for keeping my temper Sit town Miss Green Turning to Jefferson he went on For your mothers sake my boy I have overlooked your little eccentrlcl ties of character But now we have arrived at the parting of the waye you have gone too far The one aspect of this business I cannot overlook is your willingness to sell your own fa they for the sake

voted down in Shelburne Out In Shullsburg Vls the vote was nearly six to one against bonding the city for an electric light plant The committee appointed by the town of Winchester Mass to Investigate the subject of municipal lighting re ported as follows The committee Is unanimously of the opinion that the town should not at this time undertake to own or control any municipal lighting plant nor

herbs It acts MISLEADING ESTIMATES Why Municipal Lighting Plant Gen aridly Coat More Than Expected It IB most unusual for a municipal lighting plant to be erected at a cost that comes anywhere near the esti mate presented to the city officials In some cases these officials are directly to blame for accepting the estimates of representatives of manufacturing companies who are of course more anxious to make a sale than to protect the citizens from ultimate disappoint ment Wben an electrical engineer Is called upon for an estimate It might seem as though the council had done Its full duty but unfortunately In some cases at least the temptation to secure a percentage on the construc tion cost Is great enough to overcome professional honor and estimates are submitted which are absolutely Inade quate The only remedy for this would seem to be to obtain an Independent estimate from a consulting engineer who would have no further Interest In the matter Perhaps however the most common cause for disappointment Is due to the fact that engineers in estimating cost taU to take into consideration what ought to be well known by this time that cities cannot as a rule construct plants at as low figures as private companies can This Is due partly to the Inexperience of city officials which Is taken advantage of in many cases and also to the fact that the large amount of red tape which seems to be a necessary feature of such contracts has to be allowed for by bidders It Is therefore perfectly possible that lID estimate fpr a municipal plant may be exceeded by 30 per cent when It would be an adequate one If the construction were to be undertaken by a private company This Is a feature of munic ipal ownership which has not been heretofore given the consideration that it deserves

Lighting Plant Report It PlAce the Annual Total Cost Per Lamp at 5239No Account Taken However of Lost Taxes Water Depreciation Rent or of Half a Dozen Other Important Elements of Ex pense Biggest M O Plant In the Counlry Its Service aa Poor aa Its Report la Misleading The largest municipal electric light plant In the United States Is that operated by the city of Chicago Natu rally students of municipal ownership turn to Its reports as one of the prin cipal sources of Information on the subject Unfortunately however these reports helve been so worded as to give the false Impression that the municipal lights cost the city much less than If they were supplied by contract with u private company Newspapers all over the country have announced that Chicagos street lights during 1000 cost only 5239 per lamp and they are not to be blamed for mak lug this assertion for twice on page 12 of the report for that year 0239 Is given as the total cost per lamp It Is true that elsewhere In the report this statement Is modified by the ad mission that this cost doesnt In clude Interest lost taxes water depreciation rent of offices and poles Judgments against the city on account of accidents a proportion of the cost of the offices of the comptroller audi tor business agent and other branches of the city government etc but the edge Is taken off this admission by the further statement that the cost of 0239 Includes all expenses actually borne by the city a statement by the way which Is not even technically trueThe report admits that there U some Justice In the contention that these Items should be charged against the lighting cost but It makes this admis sion only after years of refusal to do so and does so now because of an investigation into the workings of the plant that has recently been made and the findings of which will soon be pub lishedSix years ago the Reform club of New York employed a well known firm of accountants to find out what Chicagos lights were really costing At that time the city claimed a cost of 0209 but the accountants reported the real cost as 9988 and made no allowance for damages street repairs rent of offices and poles or the lighting departments share of the expense for auditing purchasing and legal ex penses and n jery low allowance for depreciation nut the city authorities totally Ignored the findings of this lilt interested and expert investigation The unfairness of the report Is fur ther shown by its comparison of the per capita cost of lighting Chicago and five other cities that do not operate municipal lighting plants In the first place the street lighting of Chicago Is notoriously Inadequate and In the sec ond place while the rates in the other cities cover the entire cost of lighting In Chicago they Include only u fraction of the cost- Perhaps the most misleading teaturIi of the report Is Its comparison alleged cost of the municipal lights with the rates charged by the private company with which the city contracts for 740 of Its lumps These are iu the outskirts of the city where the cost ef maintaining them Is very high on account of their long distance from the generating station and their remote ness from each other That Is why the city contracts for them Yet the report assumes that the company would charge just as high a rate if it had the contract for ull the lights This as sumption Is not only manifestly absurd but Is directly contrary to the facts as one of the companies offered a reduc tion of more than onequarter of its contract price If It were given the en tire lighting contract In making comparisons the quality of the service Is uii Important consideration and the service of the Chicago city plant is bad It cheats the public both by the frequency of outages lamps going out and staying out the rest of the night and by stealing its own currentII ef reducing the amper age below the point at which the cur rent keeps the lamps up to their rated candlepower In many cases observers have noted that especially after mid night the lumps give only a dull glow at the carbon points and are of practi cally no value as lights This Is done to reduce coal consumption and of course makes a great difference In the lost of operation It would not be tol rated from u private company which would also be penalized for outages These things are quite naturally not mentioned In the report To sum up the report gives the Im pression to the casual reader that the municipal plant Is giving good service at a low cost while the facts are that its service is poor and that the cost Is much higher than If the lights were supplied by a company Health In The Canal Zone The liieh wages pnld make it a miirhty temptation to our young ar tisane to join the force of skilled work men

SCORE LIVES LOST At Least That Many Men Were Car rled to Their Death and thread Lbt May Grow Half Section of Glnnt Urldge Crum pled Up Taking Workmen Down With It Quebec Que Aug 30A section of the new bridge across the St Law rence river five miles below this city collapsed late yesterday carrying scores of bridgeworkers and mechan ics into the water It is estimated that the loss of life is at least eighty and may exceed that number The bridge was about a mile and a half in length and half of it from the south shore to midstream crumpled up and dropped into the water Ninety men were at work on this section of the structure and the whistle had just blown at 530 for the men to quit work for the day when there came a grinding sound from the bridge midstream The men turned to see what had happened and an In stant later the cry went up The 9bridge is falling The men made a rush shoreward but the distance was too great for them to escape The fallen section of the bridge dragged others after it the snapping girders and cables boom- Ing like a crash of artillery Terror lent fleetness to the feet of the fright ened workmen as they sped shoreward but only a few of them reached safety before the last piece of Ironwork on the south shore was dragged into the river Near the shore the wreckage of tho bridge did not go below the surface of the water and eight workmen who remained above water were rescued and taken to the hospital at Levis The steamer Glenmont had Just cleared the bridge when the first sec tlon fell The water thrown up by the debris came clear over the bridge ot the steamer The captain at once lowered boats The small boats plied backward and forward over tho sunk en wreckage for half an hour but there was no sign of life The twisted iron and steel had its victims in a terrible death grip A few floating timbers and the broken strands of the bridge toward the north shore were the only signs that anything unusual had happened There was not a rip pIe on the smooth surface of the St Lawrence as it swept along toward the gulf All the men drowned were employes of the Phoenlxvllle Bridge company and subcontractors of Quebec and Montreal The Quebec bridge was be gun about seven years ago and It was to be finished in 1909 Subsidies had been granted by the federal and provincial governments and the city of Quebec and the estimated cost of the work was 10000000 The Phoenixvllle Bridge company of Pennsylvania had the contract for the construction of the bridge and were working from both sides of the river The southern extension of the bridge which collapsed was rapidly near the zenith of the immense steel arch which was to span the river The Quebec bridge was remarkable in that it was to be the longest single span cantilever bridge in the world the length of the span in tho center being 1800 feet or 200 feet longer than that of the Firth bridge at present the worlds longest single bridge span Mrs B M Currie and two children Mary and Eudaily returned home

do by what he has done In the past than by what he says he will do fwd that you can better forecast what a party will do In the future by Its record In the past than by the prom Ides of Its platform and of Its candl dates If a man convicted of perjury or false swearing makes a statement or a promise we may well be on our guard with him and discredit what ever he might say If a party which has come before you In the past mak ing fair promises and uttering serious Charges against Its opponents and when given power by you has violated those promises and signally failed to eoake good those charges comes again tanking the same promises and cbargeslt Is well to look upon It with doubt and fear before again giving it tt chance to betray you Let us see In what attitude each of these two political parties stands be fore you In this campaign In the light ot Its past record Its promises and Us performances By that test alone It Is fair to judge between the two and by that test speaking for my party I ask that the people of Ken tuoky pass Judgment in the November Election What the Republican Party Promised In 1895 the Republican party placed at the head of Its ticket as candidate tot governor Hon W O Bradley when as now the dominant and con trolling force In his party In this state ta their platform and In the speeches t their candidates they made the moat extensive and fulsome promises or what they would do If elected to the offices They promised the moral political and Industrial regeneration of Kentucky They promised a new era In the states progress and develop ment that the laws would be strictly enforced and that peace and content tent would everywhere prevail They made the gravest possible charges against the Democratic party and Its conduct of the states affairs They Charged extravagance and corruption mad with the battle cry Give us a look at the books they made their campaign Democratic leaders refuted these charges and warned the people that It would be disastrous to place the Republican party In control In this hate or In any Southern state that it believed in force and fraud and In the subordination of the civil to the military power But In vain were the Charges denied and these warnings uttered Many people were deceived and misled Suspicions were created In the minds of many good people that possibly there had been mismanage went and corruption In the Democratic administration Unfortunate dissen Ions arose in the Democratic party and the Republican ticket with a Re publican legislature was electedthe first time in the history of the state In December of 1895 and January 1896 they came Into possession of the state government and for over four years held it Wherein Republican Administration Failed In that dark and fateful period what a record was made For incapacity mismanagement and disaster It has never been equalled In this state Tbtlr campaign cry for a look at the books was answered and for over tour years they had ample time to look at them But never were they able to find a single cent of the peo es money not properly accounted or Not a vestige of fraud or cor Imptlon upon the part of the previous Democratic administration could they tticover Their campaign charges Inn shows to be false and Insincere 4wt M they are MW What did they 4 toward uBbvilalBf and advancing welfare of the state Nothing itrrer but to turn hack for at least I a g iraUbn fie Ami tfcat MMrlt4 Ota prgrfP and development Ihrer fairmintedI Republican will admit tkat It was the most turbulent period in the eosarggnweFltWs history with the possible exception of the time of the Civil war In place of the bread they promised you they gave you a stone Instead of the new era of peace and prosperity about which they prated BO much in the campaign they establish ed a red carnival of military usurpa tion and bloodshed The new admin istration had not been in power three months when the Republican gover nor called into active service the state militia and placed it in control of the General Assembly of the state then in session There was absolutely no necessity for such an arbitrary and unwarranted exercise of power It was an unconstitutional effort upon the part of one branch of the govern ment to intimidate and control the ac tion of a coordinate branch A mem ber of the General Assembly could not enter the capitol without the permis sion of a military officer The whole purpose of it was to force the election of a Republican to the United States senateIn other instances was the same flagrant use made of the militia and In the state election of 1899 when W S Taylor was the Republican nom inee for governor this same Republican governor In his desperate desire to aid in Taylors election called into active service state troops in the city of Louisville on election day in order to intimidate and Influence the voters During that entire administration law lessness and crime were rampant Night Riders and Clay County Recalled Republican leaders now try to re fleet upon the Democratic administra lion by referring to the Breathitt coun ty troubles and the reports about the night riders Let them go back to the time when they were In control and refresh their memories about the tollgate raiders and feudal wars in some of the counties Let them read the messages of their governor to the General Assembly to see his lurid pictures of lawlessness and crime at that time If it was not fair to hold him responsible for the tollgate raiders the Clay county feud and other sim liar outbreaks It certainly is not fair to hold a Democratic governor respon sible for the Breathitt county and other such troubles One of the chief reasons for which the Republican gov ernor in 1897 called an extra session of the General Assembly was to get more power to stop lawlessness in the stateDark Record of 18991900 In Kentucky Then In December 1899 with the use of the military at the polls fraud ulent tissue ballots In many counties corruption and force in the election there came Into temporary power Tay lor and his bloody cohorts Confront ed by his Democratic opponent with a constitutional contest before the Gen eral Assembly he filled the state cap ital with an armed and desperate mob Realizing the hopelessness of his case he became reckless and murderous From a window in the executive build ing not forty feet from where he sat nervously awaiting the fatal sound there was fired the shot which struck down in mortal agony the man whom he could not defeat in a legal or con stitutional way Almoij L

for this awful event swarmed Into the capitol grounds togk posses elon of the buildings under orders from the Republican governor guard ed all the entrances and dove back the civil officers who Bought to enter and arrest the murderers And yet they tell us It is persecution to attempt to bring to trial the man who directed all tbeqe movements who admits that he was only forty feet from where the fatal shot was fired and prohibited the civil of racers from coming In to make a searchHe suspended the writ of habeas corpus He issued his proclamation adjourning the legislature to London without the slightest authority of llaw He had his lawless soldiery using their bayonets to drive the senators and representatives from their halls and chase them through the streets of Frankfort like a lot of felons forcibly preventing them from meeting any where until for the safety of their lives they were compelled to secretly leave the capital and go to the city of Louisville where they might hold their sessions He sent his adjutant general with a lawless mob to the Capital hotel where William Goebel lay suffering with the agonies of his cruel wound that by their boisterous laughter and the grounding of their arms upon the brick pavements they might disturb the last hours of the dying man He made it necessary for the Court of Appeals to abandon their courtroom and seek safety in the city of Louisville He made It dangerous for any man woman or child to walk upon the streets of the capital city And yet this Is the mangy Saw 1l fug tive from Justice who will return in triumph to Kentucky with a pardon before trial In his pocket if Mr Will son and the Republican ticket are elected In November Willson Would Pardon W S Taylor This Is the man too whom aRe publican state convention only a few years ago after he had done all these things indorsed for his resolute and patriotic course This Is the man who Mr Wlllson says was resolute and patriotic whom Mr Wlllson supported In 1899 and supports now If he has ever changed his opinion he has not said so Is he any better than Governor Bradley his mentor and chief ad- visor Is he any better than W S Taylor whose resolute and patriotic course he has Indorsed Can we ex pect more of him than we could ot Governor Bradley or of W B Taylor If so will he please explain to the people In what respect he differs from them or by what process of purifica tion he has been made better than they were He cannot answer by retailing some exploded slander or baseless falsehood about the Democratic administration He must come to the point direct The people have no tol eration for dodging or equivocation He must either defend the administra tions of Governor Bradley and Taylor or repudiate them And he cannot do either without confessing the futility of his candidacy and the absurdity of his claim I will relieve him somewhat of his embarrassment and answer it for him He will not deny that my answer Is correct He does indorse these two men and if elected governor he would show his Indorsement by trying to send one to the United States senate and bring the other a free man back to Kentucky Something on Financial Conditions Now let us look at the financial con dition of affairs when that party took charge in January 1896 and the con dition when they went out In Feb ruary 1900 The Republican auditor stated that he found a debt of 1800000 with cash In the treasury amounting to 16373438 leaving a net debt of I64626562 Taking their own figures about which there IB much question and It Is probable that they overstated the amount the fact remains that the debt which they found was not as great as the debt which they left In February 1900 for a statement from the auditors office shows that on Feb 26 1900 when the Democrats took charge of that department the total liabilities amounted to 206299187 with 36333457 cash in the treasury leaving a net debt of 169965730 a greater amount than the debt which they say existed when they first took charge It therefore appears that not withstanding their increase of the tax rate ten cents and issuing bonds for which they received nearly 540000 all done for the avowed purpose of paying off the state debt they left the state in heavier debt than they found It They charged this debt to what they called Democratic extrava gance not explaining to the people that the preceding Democratic admin istration had been burdened with ex traordinary demands upon its resources owing to the long session of the Constitutional convention and the unusually long session of the general assembly of 18919293 made neces sary for the purpose of a revIsion of all our laws in accordance with the new constitution In order to pay off this debt as they claimed they called an extra ses sion of the general assembly in 1897 and secured the passage of acts to enable 4hem to issue bonds for 600 000 for which they received about 540000 and to increase the tax rate from 42 cents on the one hundred dollars to 54 cents Democratic members voted for these measures because they placed patriotism above partisanship and did not want to embarrass the financial affairs of the party Republicans Incrltad

months of power they appropriated only 187 000 for public Improvements while the Democratic administration since it came Into power with a reduced tax rate has paid off all the debt It inherited from the Republican admin istration made Kentucky one of the four or five states in the Union which have no debt and appropriated over 2500000 for public Improvements and In tho establishment and development of our Institutions- In the bill by which the Republican administration raised the tax rate fo 52th cents they provided that at the end of their term the tax rate should fall 5 cents or be 471 cents under which rate we lived for two years when In 1902 the general assembly raised it to 50 cents the present rate Consequently when we came into con I trol in February 1900 we found a reduced tax rate seriously cutting down our revenues at a critical time and a debt of about 1700000 facing us What Democracy Has Accomplished What have we done under such dis astrous conditions With the whole

a well known traveling man I was in the smoking department with some other traveling men when one of them went ont into the coach and came back and said There is a woman sick unto death in the car I at once got up andwent out found her very ill with cramp colic her hands aud arms were drawn up so you could not straighten them and with a deathlike look on her face Two or three ladies were working with her and giving her whisky I went to my suit case and got my bottle of Cham berlains Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy I never travel without it ran to the water tank put a double dose of the medicine in the glass poured some water into it and stirred it with a pencil then I had quite a time to get the ladies to let me give it to her but I succeeded I could at once see the ef feet and I worked with her rubbing her hands and in twenty minutes I gave her another dose By this time we were almost into Le Grande where I was to leave the train I gave the bottle to the husband to be used in case another dose should be needed but by the time the train ran into Le Grande she was all right and I received the thanks of every passenger in the car For sala by Severs Drug Co WHY WE LAUGHI JoIl

lad A HEASTY WELCOME when we took charge We placed them upon the best basis ever before known and equal to those Jn the most progressive states In America Kentucky IIs the most generous tate of all In the appropriation of he revenues which she gives to the cause of education Out of her 60 cents tax rate Shp glrea26 cents to the pub lie schools and normal schools one halt cent to the state college and 2 cents to the sinking fund to pay the Interest on school bonds making 21 cents to that cause leaving only 9 cents for all the general expenses o the commonwealth In all of its branches and its public Institutions Many of the counties of the state have a higher rate than that for their county expenses In a few years with the present progress if the Democratic party is continued In power we will have a school system equal to the best in the country Can anyone point to a single thin done by the Republican administration for the benefit of education The only thing It did was in 1899 when the state campaign was on and It padded the figures and created a large deficit in the fund the following year in order to show as large a per capita as possible for the campaign New Capitol a Fin Structure We have nearly finished a new Itol building coating for the complete- structure one mlllioa and a quarte- of dollars In beauty and magnifi cents it Is unquestionably the hand somest capitol to be found In any of the Southern states It will be ex celled by few if any of the other cap Itol buildings in the country It will not be inferior in architecture and beauty to the new Pennsylvania cap itol built by a Republican adminis tration at a cost of 13000000 When compared to the cost per cubic foot of every capitol built in the past gen eration in any state the Kentucky capitol has cost less than any In fact only about half of what the lowest in other states have cost It is pronouno ed by all who have seen it as a su perb structure and splendidly built To the criticisms of our enemies we need only answer Go and look at It The marvel iIq that so much could have been done and done so well for the money used When completed in a few months It will be a building worthy of the pride of our people and of the admiration of all who behold It The Republican candidates in their I scarcity of campaign material have tried to revive a miserable old slander about the employment of an architect That question has been thoroughly met and answered before the people The building cost 1250000 and the site nearly 40000 making 1290000 cost of site and structure We shall pay the architect who designed and planned who constantly superintends and watches its construction 61000 for his services or barely 4 per cent of the cost Every other state paid its architect 5 per cent That is what the government and every other con oem pays a firstclass architect Mr Wlllson borrows an old false hood for use in his campaign which has long since been exposed about a certain man who offered to furnish plans for a capitol at 16000 and that our board turned down his proposition We did and we would do it again if the matter was before us If this man should offer to do It for nothing we would not accept it because his rec thatheport of the Texas capitol commission tells how he tried to rob that state as the architect of the capitol Mr Willson knows the record of the man and I am surprised to learn that he thinks Myers ought to hate been chosen If he was governor and My ers is his kind of architect and ha ra Myerss kind of governor then we might have had in Kentucky a similar experience to the Republlcan built cap itol of Pennsylvania Republican Campaign One of Lies In every campaign where I have met them the Republican candidates have seemed to be actuated by the overwhelming conviction that a false hood told to a hundred people was thq best campaign argument if oply fifty of them should ever hear the correction of it Defeated every time when they have made such a fight it Is surprising therefore that they have not profited by experience and pitched this campaign upon a higher plane He and his associates have been far back in the mountains trying to im pose these wellknown slanders upon the good people there Two others especially have they used one about the public printing work and the other about fees paid to attorneys In places far from the railroads isolated and hard to reach they have repeated these charges hoping that no Demo cratic speakers or representatives would ever get there to correct the false impressions- In the mountain county of Letcher where It is a days horseback ride from the county seat to a railroad he told with earnestness and vigor that these Democrats at Frankfort had agreed to pay the architect 85000 when he knew or ought to have know such to be untrue He or Ids companion candidates in an effort to catch some Confederate voters told hat it was a Republican member of the General Assembly who Introduced the bill to establish the Confederate Home when they knew or ought to have known that the records showed luch to be untrue Many other similar instances could be named They have repeated the lid charge about extravagance in the payment of public printing bills when they know that a Republican attorney fcMisral approved the bill about which Ir1LJ31ftrF JesfhllilliG I restlgattTlfiT commute comprewrr ex onerated the members of the board from all blame and reported that ev lathing had been dope In accordance with the law and the contract and that the state fiscal court by Us decil sion had also vindicated the notion o the board Owing to the large in therstate a great deal more printing ha been needed under this administration than under the Republican adminis tratlon and yet the average cost un der that was greater than jt has been under this The annual average cos during their term was 4618106 while 1the annual average under eight 1nf eluding the 28000 about which the complain has been 4361315 showin 256791 less per year under Democratic than under Republican admin istration At no time in its history has the states printing been done so cheaply as it has been under the Democratic administration On some items of the contracts the public printer n ogmany others he has to do it at a loss It is not fair therefore to pick out certain items upon which he makes a profit and judge of the whole by that Reviewing Already Exploded Charge Another of these old charges which they have resurrected to do service for them in this campaign Is In regard to the payment of attorneys fees thde rceive the people about it They recently stated at Mayavllle that we had paid out 159000 In attorneys fees I shall be fairer than they are and tell them that we paid out more than that The records show that since I became governor we have paid out for that purpose 17390214 But to make up that amount they have to put In the fee he paid Captain Calhoun of 7119995 for collecting the old Civil war claims amounting to 1324000 which has been explained so often and so fully to the people that I shall not take up time with it now It has beep shown that Kentucky through Captain Calhoun collected her claims at less cost than that paid by another y state for similar collections that the fee paid was a little over 5 per cent while no other state paid less than 10 per cent and some them as high as 25 per cent So ofII has been in all the collections he has made for Kentucky or Kentucky sol diers his fees have been less than those paid by any other state anIand is not properly chargeable to this amount When subtracted from it there is left 10270219 In that amount too for which the Republl can candidates try to hold us account able Is 2016784 which we paid on contracts made by Governor Brown Governor Bradley W S Taylor and W J Hendrick with which we had nothing to do It should also be de ducted from the above amount and 1 it leaves 8253535 the fair amount for which we should be accountable in the customary conduct of this work That much for eight years makes an annual average of 1031678 certainly a most reasonable amount upon which to conduct this business It should be remembered too that since the passage of the railroad rate law In 1900 the railroads with the ablest of counsel have contested every inch of the law through the state and federal courts and it has been necessary for us to employ good counsel In each instance to uphold the laws validity and these fees have augmented toll amount Is it fair therefore for them to pad this amount with items which do not properly belong to It especially amounts contracted for under other administrations I have explained these matters with which the people have been made acquainted in prevl ous campaigns merely to show the character of campaign now being con ducted by the Republican candidates who have shown their willingness to distort ttv facjs and peryyt the re Stock Profits can be greatly Increased by

public Institutions of the state better than ever before When the Republicans were In coa trot the conduct of the two peniten tiaries was the worst ever known and they were a great burden upon the taxpayers Since they came under the control of a Democratic board a revolution and reformation have bees accomplished in their condition Now Instead of costing the state large sums to maintain them they are self sup porting and cost us nothing Excel lent Improvements and advancement have been made too in the manage ment of all our charitable Institutions Never before have they been more

material and Industrial welfare of the state It may be safe IIly said that in the last eight years greater progress has been made than In the thirty years preceding that time It may be shown too that more capital has been fnvesU 3 fn the slate In any one year of the last tour yean of Democratic administration than was invested in the entire time that the Republicans were in power This would not happen if business people did not have confidence in the state government and In the enforcement of lawsWhat has the administration done for the farmers and agricultural Inter ests More than was ever done for them before In all the preceding ad ministrations together It has put life and vigor into the agricultural depart ment of the state and made It a liv ing active force for usefulness The vast good it has done Is well known to the farmers This Democratic admin istration has also given to the farmers and tobacco raisers a law that more effectively enables them to fight the trusts Every Intelligent and fair minded farmer in the state can tes tify to the fact that this administration has not neglected their interests but has done more than all others to build up and advance their business j recognizing that our farmers consti tute such a splendid citizenship What has it done for the miners and mines of the state Go look at th statistics and find the answer The mineral production of Kentucky has about doubled under this Democratic administration and new mines are be ing opened up as fast as labor can be found to work them Fewer strikes and serious difficulties of that kind have happened here than elsewhere In several Instances the administra tion has Interposed sucessfully its ser vices to bring about peaceful adjust ment of the differences In Its gen eral attitude it has been so fair and Impartial between these two forces that each could see It had a Just friend In the Democratic administration Cause of Temperance Promoted What has it doii3 for the great cause of temperance in which our peo pie are so deeply Interested It pass ed and put Into operation the county unit bill a measure which gives to each county and to each city of the first four classes the right to decide whether or not intoxicating liquors shall be sold in Its territory It does away with the precinct unit and makes the county the unit except as to the larger cities It has been in operation only a little over one year and yet in that time thirtyfive counties haveI voted out intoxicating liquors entirely making in addition to the fiftyeight counties already dry ninetythree out of the 119 counties In the state abso lutely under the local option law A large part of the remaining twentyI six counties are also under that law Washington Named Republics i Ticket You have nothing to expect of the Republican tlbket It was nominated from Washington by the Federal Revenue Association The edict was sent from there that Mr Wlllson should bo nominated for governor and every opponent he had for the nomination promptly withdrew- I do not attack the Republican people of Kentucky I believe in the honesty and patriotism of the masses of that party I have lived among them associated with them and have many warm friends among them In the many campaigns I have made frequently I have gone into strong Re publican counties and made political speeches to audiences composed of more Republicans than Democrats and in all of that experience I have never yet met with the slightest act of discourtesy or disrespect from the Re publican people It they did not agree with me in opinion they yet treated me with respect It is not against them that I wage this contest but against those of their leaders who have misled and deceived them It IB a notorious fact that the party organization of the Republican party in Kentucky has for years been con trolled by those who had at heart more the question of the distribution of fed oral patropagethan the geae ra wel fare or the parry or ornr T nT m wealth I state this proposition with out fear of successful contradiction the Republican masses of Kentucky and especially of the mountains have fared better under Democratic admin- Istration than they did under Repub lican administration Glad to Leave Governor Office My long term of nearly eight yearsI as governor of this great common wealth is drawing to a close In De ember next I shall retire from it I duties and responsibilities It Is bee for me that It should be so for the burden of It has borne more heavily upon me than might be supposed The office of governor Is one of great honor but It Is also one of great drudgery and anxiety In those nearly eight years I have worked hard and faithfully to serve my state and its splendid people By a terrible tragedy the awful responsibilities of the office fell upon me unexpectedly and sud denly I have often thought that som of my unkind critics were right when they said I was too young and too in experienced for the situation But what I lacked in age and practice I have faithfully tried to make up tin earnestness of purpose and devotion to duty With what measure of suc cess my efforts have been attended It is for the Just and fairminded peo pie of Kentucky to say Without claiming any credit for what has bun accomplished I can at least rejoice when I turn over the office to my suc cessor in contemplating the vast dif ference In the condition of affairs now from what they were in the days of gloom and sorrow when I first became governor To Its successors this administration will have the gratifica Lion at the close of this year of pus ing the government of the commonwealth In the most prosperous condi tion It ever enjoyed and Its people happier and more contented than ever before Stomach troubles Heart
