people To guarantee to a man progress and pros perity in any sort of business enterprise every obstruction must ber removed horn the avenues through which trade may travel to him If he erects his L business house upon an island and neg lects to bridge the water so the people 4may easily and comfortably come to him he may expect bankruptcy Folks are not inclined to swim rivers and climb oyer mountains to buy sugar coffee an1 calico when the trade can ibe made on this side of the river or at the foot of this side of the moun tain and that too in a very satisfac tory mariner It is hard for us to understand why are not thoroughly intr fmen1ted in the question of god Toads Productive farms along miserably muddy and rocky byways are lowpriced farms and are usually the propertyof Imen who have neither the means nor tbejnclinationito make bountiful crops Goods roads besides enhancing the val uof farm lands produce contentment and happiness among the people When a man knows he can jog the old horse into town with never a twist of a wheel an a rut nor a balk on a rocky iJlhe Becomes pretty well satisfied with his lot in life and has no desire to sell out and leave But the people must remember that jtftakes moneylots of itto keep Toadsin good condition Let us briefly look into the road ques tion in Washington county The county assessment is 4000000 tax rate 50 cents25 cents for turnpikes and bridges and 25 cents for the general fund The Fiscal Court appropriates the full amount Sib ooofor Jkesavdbrtdges itis then some times necessary to draw on the general fund in order to meet indebtedness incurred over and above the appropriation No given amount is designated by the law for dirt roads but out of the general fund the Fiscal Court appro priates 2500 to be expended on these roads Every cent of this money is economically used in working the dirt roads but it does not begin to put them in more than a passable condition fIt will seen that with these appropriations made and the money expend ep tthet county has left 7500 with which to pay all other expenses Out of this amount about 2000 is given to e support the paupers of the county I It must be very evident to all people who are acquainted with these condi tions that it requires close economy and sound business judgment on the part of our county officials to make both ends meet In Washington county we have ap proximately 225 miles of pike and 250 miles of dirt road With pikes in good t condItion it requires an annual expendi ture of about 150 to the mile to keep them up hence it will seen that to keep Washington countjrpikes in good condi tion it will require 33750 or 22750 in excess of the annual appropriation sof 10000 for pikes and bridges Ouf dirt roads would then require our at tention to the extent of something like 20000 In round numbers let us say that it will require an annual expendi ture of 50000 to keep up the rpad sys tern of the county and about 7jOOO for general purposes 57000 in all We haye 20000 Now if some gentleman will come forward and tell us where to get the other 37000 we will guaran P t tee that Washington county will make- IJ Iniri a res nt of a new spring suit

articles of commerce are going down in price when wages are being reduced thousands families are dispensing with luxuries in order to curt ill expenses the p ice of this necessity of life has been suddenly and arbitrarily gIverfn Certainly the Post is not disappoint ed that an explanation is not giveI joy tie trust for the increase in the price of meat When highwaymen in the days of od gobbed the stage coach jp explanation vitas given Continuing the Post saysf A higher charge is imposed for eat today during the season of great prosperity three years ago abbr js ch ap the farmers and the stock n en are anxious to sell the railroads are in a position to ship with much less Jay but nevertheless the Meat Irust increasesj the price to the cons mer Thetpacking houses of Chicago have had ample to recover from the ex posures of several years ago It is reasonable that muchof their profits wereswept awayby those hideous discover ps but they have had time to imed to have reformed every abuse The demand for meat can hardly have fallen off to any apprecia ble extent for families in this country must have meat and coal even if they do without other things The IJvening Post hopes that the poor people of this country will never reach the stage many of the inhabi tants of Southern Europe where meat is considered a luxury not to be had over once a weekat the best How much the Meat Trust is responsible for the recent increase in the price ofmeat and the reasons therefor ajdepthat this is a subject interesting fully as as even the railroad qu IThe of the Meat Trust the Coal Trust and the Oil Trust fall most heavily orinhe poor The exactions of every trust fall too the poor The wage 1earners are contributing their hard earned dollars to the yawn ing coffers of the trust magnates and the little hornsthe toiler dreamed would some day be his has vanished from his mind as a tiny ray of light in an acre of clouds Lawless bands may reign supreme for a period but in the end law will triumph Today the criminal may walk among clover blooms and elate his black soul with Gods sunlight and air but tomorrow his flesh will be pricked by many thorns and over a rough and miserable way he will be driven ib prison by the lash of the law t SUBSCRIBERS The ppstoffice department at r Washington has recently made a ruling that no one shall becar rilon the subscription list of a country newspaper who is in ar rears one or more years There tore it will be necessary for The Sun to revise its list frdm tune to time taking from the listnames of persons woo iu behind twelve

To take the Democratic State con vention away from Louisville will hurt that city very little It will give those Democrats who bolted Beckham ttle concern to see the convention held in another city and the folks of the Falls City would pursue the even tenor of their ways just as if nothing had ever happened to them The only party to the transaction that will come out of the affair mussed up will be the Democratic party It is well known to all of us that the only reason for wanting to take the convention from Louisville is because somebody thinks it will spite somebody If such a course would present the op portunity to politicians to cut the throats of their political enemies there Would be some excusealthough illegit imate for attempting to take the convention to another city But to hold the convention elsewhere would not even give an unholy opportunity to one fellow to cut the throat of the other fel low Therefore the scheme looks very much like an outburst of childish anger It is the weakest effort to retaliate that has overcome under our notice bbWH IK GALLOWAY I The officers of the law down in Cal 0 way county are doing more to put dotu lawlessness in Kentucky than a dozen Governors and the Kings Regiments could do They are not cutting thir tongues lOose and defying all creation from the housetops neither are they standing guard over incendiary ashes but they are looking for clews that will lead them to the guilty they are trailing the tracks of the criminal to his den and they are placing upon the eyildoer the pinions of the lawIThe work of the Calloway

spiritual things because of the financial embarrassment and the unsettled cpnditipn of the country We recently made a trip up in the West End as Western Boyle Js called We were pleased to see that country in sich a prosperous condition Blue grass Well tilled fields neat farm houses and pleasant surroundings met us on every turn but the sawmill and lumbermen have gotten in their work So many fine wood pastures in which stood stalwart oaks of many centuries have been cut away to meet commer cial demands Our friend Mr Will Elliott inthe last year has cut for dif ferent parties over one hundred thousand feet of oak timber at 10 cts per hundred Western Boyle is practically stripped of timber We took dinner with our friend Mr Edd White who has a fine farm of two hundred acres all in grass It had been twentyfour years since we had been in that home Many changes have occurred in that time Father Time having left his mark on the heads of that family The father isv bowed with the weight of years and seldomleaves his premises all the children save two have married and left the home roof and gone out into the world to make homes of their own Miss Bertha a little tot then has also followed suit Her health Jailed and she is now in Hendersonville N C where she went last July for lung trouble Her health is consicerably im proved and she has gained thirty pounds in weight The husband and family especially the mother are look ing forward with fond anticipation when the loved one will return again Uncle Edd as he is called is of old Virginia stock His father John White came

over the conduct of their Representa tive Mr Lillard On coming into the front yard one day last week one of our neighbors saw that an unusual struggle had taken place It soon dawned upon him that there had been a long hard battle fought in the front yard his wife and daughter arrayed against a large black snake that had taken refuge in a large rose bush The battle ground did not look exactly like the work of Night- Riders but resembled a map of Mer cer county after one of their worst raids He told us that in this bloodless fight the following weapons were used socks a spade and drill two pailmg a stick of wood an old musket barrel that had done service in the battle at Perryvillej a hoe mall and finally as a last resort they fell back on womans never failing weapon hot water which it is said she uses with good effect on stubborn husbands and preyerse sons wasIwho is a good ju ge of such things be lieves the enemy was not engaged at close quarters but was fought at a safe distance

Herald Mr J J Isham of near Mackville was at theJ Iferaid office last Friday He sayshe is playing in pretty tough luck He had concluded to plant eight acres of tobac r f ico and toad hIS tobacco bed planted when one night last week some son= l9fagun scraped it good and strong When asked it he would stiiririsist on raising a crop he said he would not that if the people did not want him to raise tobacco he would be governed by their wishes in these days of panic and nightridera A daybr two befor that while he and his family were away from home some dne broke into his- house and carried off nine gallons of lard two sides of bacon a ham and a shoulder twentyfive pounds of granu lated sugar a new pair of 350 patent leather shoes and 1 worth of dried peaches he had brought home that morning These things were taken in broad daylight and in order to get alII of this stuff away it was evidently n essary for the thieves to have eC1 wagon but he was unable to find trace fa wagon having been about the premises and diligent inquiry has not enabled him to find out from anj of his neighbors that a wagon had been seen about his place or on the road in the vicinity About three months ago some one stole twentythree of his geese and cut up and ruined a brannew buggy for him He says if he has an enemy in the world he does not know itr and he requested us to announce for him that he would pay 25 for the ar rest and conviction of the thieves that robbed his house although he wanted it distinctly understood that this reI ward is not for the person or persons who scraped his tobacco beds as

Jewish Sabbath which ended at sunset feast was helP that hPLACETheIrT Bethany oh the Mount of Olives Comment and Suggestive Thought Put In a single word the subject of our Scripture passage is Service different ways of serving Christ and the way Christ prefers No other paslsage in the Bible presents these so vividly Therefore it is a passage of great and fundamental importance Gelkie imagines that the sisters had often pondered how they could show their gratitude for all Christ had been and all that he had done for them Mary showed it by anointing Christs feet and head Matt 267 with very precious ointment By ointment we are to understand rather a liquid perfume than what we com monly know as ointment Schaff It was common to anoint the heads of guests but anointing the feet was a- very special honor Nard is an unguent from the head or spike of a fragrant East in- dian plant belonging to the genus Valeriana which yields a juice of de licious odor Thayer This was lit erally translated pistic nard the adjective meaning pure genuine or drinkable as some ointments were drunk mixed with winE or it may indicate the place whjence the nard came A pound Latin libra the unit of weight in the Roman empire slightly over 11 ounces avoirdupois Expos Greek Test The estimate of Judas v 5 was 300 denarii a day laborers wake for one yearExpos Greek Test Equal to 300 or 600 of our money Attar of roses sells for 1200 a pound It was kept in a cruse or flask of ala baster Mark called an alabaster just as we call a drinking vessel made of glass a glass It was a kind of cruet having a cylindrical form at the top Pliny compares these vessels to a closed rosebudProf Marvin R Vincent The tables were low sometimes not more than a foot high and the guests reclined around them leaning 11 their elbows their feet stretched out away from the table We recall the ideal picture of Aaron when anointed to the priesthood Psa 1332 to riiark herethe fulfillment of the type wlien the great High Priest was anointed for the sacrifice She who had so often sat at his fe tnow anblnfs them and alike for love reverence and fellowship of his sufferings wlll not wipe them but with her hair Edersheim This simple act pro claimed the selfhumiliation of her un bounded love seeing that the lopsen ing of a womans hair was a mark of unusual selfabandonment Pulpit CommentaryThis of Mary bifiame so fa mous as Christ prophesied it would Matt 2613 because i It was a beautiful example of that fine virtue gratitude 2 It was a beautiful example of the sacrifices gladly made by love 3 It was a beautiful example of loves courage Mary was willing to face misunderstandings sneers cap tious criticism and smiles of ridicule Her great love brushed these aside like cobwebs Most service of Christ calls for similar courage from the first stammering attempt of the young convert to speak for Jesus to the large tasks of the missionary and the reformer But love for Christ makes it all easy 4 It Wyks a beautiful foreglimpse of Christs great sacrifice This deed was the dying of Jesus in a figure Christ found In it the very spirit that was leading him so steadily to Cal vary For Jesus like Mary lavished everything In saving menRev G H Morrison 5 It furnished ao beautiful IllustraI tion of Christs ready lovirfg service The disciples chided but Jesus praised 6 But fine as It was Marys spir itual devotion to Christ would have been just as fine It It had been ac companied by household ministrations to his needs A kinsman of mine was once entertained by a gifted woman who was so much absorbed In his Interesting conversation that she forgot to inspect the spare room in which he slept and In which he passed the night In exasperating collisions with a silver soup tureen which long before had been concealed from the burglars In his bed and I confess I agrqed with a cynical female critic storrIpray and talk IQQss and keep house more Bishop Potter Mary may have done both Ve are not told Practical Points When Christ asks us to do such work It becomes at once of Supreme Importance and invested with foyal dignity There is splendid service in faith as well as In works in love ab well as in active ministering to thei loved one Those whose special gifts He in ac tivity and those whose minds tend rather to Inner devotion should appreciate one another Christian work needs the devout and studious Mel ancthon but not less the robust and heroic Luther KEEPS WATCH ON CUSTOMERS Dog HasMacleHimseif 5a Favorite with Dug Stor Patrons When the drug man goes to his modest lunch In a

president of Oberlin college he was approached by an jlnsurance agent who wanted to write a on his household goods To this the man of education agreed after some talk Next morning the policy was delivered and the agents report forwarded to the company Late in the afternoon Mrs Barrows went to her room and there saw smoke cozing out around the closet door She pulled the door open and found fir

recent times Spoke on a battlefield that may hp takjbn as the symbol of the great war for the union the governor took occaslpn to tell of the peril that threatens our fed eral form of governmen This peril was emphasized by the recent deci- sIon 0f the supreme court in thejj rail way cases going up from Minnesota and North Carolina which p acti catty makes the state governments subservient to the inferior federal urtsThe significance of these decisions Is widely understood and theY have given rise to a general dfcuj slon of the question of the rights of the states and Gov Johnsons speecb t wnfpnkas an important con rlbii discussion The dedica tory address in part follows Representing the people of the coin monwealth of Minnesota we art as sembled on one of the historic e fields of the civil war to pay ourHrib ute of respect and affection to the memory or the sons of Minnesota who here yielded up their lives i that this might continue to be a unlt4 nation Their sacrifice was not fort per sonal gain but was in response to duty nda contribution to the clv ilization of the age and for the Pur pose of perpetuating thelnsUtutiQI of human liberty t 1 appreciate that nothing which I can say will add to or detract rom i the glory of their achievement wjiich in itself is an enduring onumentto the patriotism and 1 American soldier Their sacrifice However was not different from that which has been made throughout all of the ages by those lovers of libferty who believe In a government which might give t6all the people the right to1 life liberty and property The love of liberty was not born in his country ef ours It was cradled ting tIle Danube and about the shores of lhe Baltic even when Rome bad reached the limit of her imperial grandeur Increasing In intensity with thevpasslng of the centuries it found its highest expression in the older countries In the great English charter of civil rights which forever guaranteed to the people of immunity from the despotism of those 4 who claimed to rule by virtue ofj Di vineright t One hundred and thirtytwo years ago the great contest of humanity was transferred from the old world to the here because of the Isola Ithehighpousedthe cause caUse of the signal victory achieved by them in that struggle an opportu nity was afforded to crystallize nto written law the aspirations of the patriots of all the ages The men vho built the foundations of this gov rn ment were those who hail subml ted to the supreme test of patriotism for those who inspired the constitution of the United States were the same vho had pledged their lives their pro per ties and their sacred honor to the cause of Independence Trlttenmental powers and to limit governmental departments the overwhelm lng necessity for such an h gtrumentI is to prevent Insidious upon the rights of the Individual en both from those in office tlti from those who by reason of t wealth and power have an Influence that cons1itutby its framers as an most sacred import an alteration of f which could only be made by the bea- le themselves in whom all lUnate power is vested and then only after the fullest discussion and widest licity Under thve beneficent governmen so established tile nation has prospered and the people are happy One great cloud came upon the nation in the form of an awful civil war in which two sections of the country w rflin conflict with each other The hedoes who rest here gave their lives that this nation might be maintained ahlt came from our forefathers On another battlefield of that war Abraham Lin cOin said It is for us the living rather to be dedicated to theiun finished work they have thus farjso nobly carried on It is rather f01us to be here dedicated to the remaining before ug that from these honored dead we take Increased d4vo tlon for tha cause for which they lere gaye the last full measure of devotion that wei highly resolve that dtead shall not have died In vain that the nation shall under God have a neW birth of freedom and that the gov rn4 ment of the people by the people fort e people shall not perish from jthi earth i Our concern Js not of the past poi wholly with the present butmuch with the future If the of the republic is in the hands of the Amer lean of today thenit becomes hinito he guided and governed only Qtlc impulse and the desire to do that whichrill most largely contribute to j the permanency of republican Institu- tiOns Advancing our civilization so that We will not by recognizing the- fatseclalms of selfish Interests and forgetting the American maxim that our Object should be to attain the greatest good for the greatest number incur the penalty which other people have fpaid rather let us hold ever In mind that those who framed our gov ernmit believed in the equality of the people and that the chief aim of government is to maintain that equality Under our system of government the nation has reached a material development hitherto unknown The people have prospered beyond the dreants of those who lived a century ago 4But with the development of the country and changes In economic con dition and particularly with the growth of great private corporations perfoirn1ng many of the functions of government has come tile necessity exercise of strict governmental control and a rigid enforcement ot all the laVs enacted to restrain the rich and powerful from encroaching upon the natural and legal rights of the poor and weak Theiconstitution of the ancient re hi h for 500 years had recognized the voice of the people as supreme was expanded by execu live interpretation and contracted by exe utive adn1nistratIon until Rome bad o completely outgrown Its demo crK tic Qondi ns as to become only a tragfedy and a tradition Let us implore Jhe aid of Him on high to pre serve us from the errors which ruined Rome by the avoidance of which America may travel on to that destiny that fulfillment which will be the Inspiration of rightthinking men of all to come OurJgQvernment is divided into three separate and distinct coordi nate branches the legislative the executive and the judicial Danger will surely come to this republic when any of these departments of govern meat Attempt in the slightest degree to usurp the functions of the other And while now and then it may be that a jfcourt of the land in construing the constitution may nullify a section of It I have the faith to feel that the peo pie of he country will rise above the fallibility of Judicial tribunals land asserttand preserve their own rights not to criticise the execu tive the legislature or the judiciary Very recently there has come from the highest judicial tribunal in the land a decision of vital interest and concern to the American people because it has established a principle as stated one member of the court whlchiwould work a radical change our governmental system and would Inaugurate a new era In the American judicial system and in the rela tions of the national and state gov ernments It would enable the subor dinate federal courts to supervise and controllithe official action of the states as thotJgh they were dependencies or provinces It would place the states of the union in a condition of infer iority never dreamed of when the con stitution was adopted or when the eleventh amendment Was made a part of the supreme law tot the land If this jsr the result of this decision it Is to my mind one of the unhappy incidents in the history of our repub lic because the very theory of our government Is based upon the right of the states to control absolutely their gTm domestic affairs If then our whol system of gov ernment is changed ave we not only retarded the progres of the republic but have we not gone back a century toward a centralized form of gov ernment which 4s not to the advantage of the people What this government needs is njot more power What it needs today is to so distribute the privileges under the government that all citizens will have equal opportunity America has been called the land of opportunity But American opportunity should not mean aj granting of special privileges to any Jass but should afford all alike the means for culture education pros perity and contentment For nearly a entury and a halt America has presented to the world the spectacle of a happy prosperous and intelligent people maintaining a pure democracy founded up4n their supreme will The a de mocrac is that hallmarkrr gov ernment are close Throughout the wherever de mocracy is advancing its progress is marked by a greater measure of self government to each community Will the American people turn to the set ting rather than the rising sun Shall wo now because some lays are found Irksom by a class and interfere with their selfish aims commence to de prive pur sovereign stages of that measureofli1me rule which until now they have seen fit to reserve to them selves I cannot believe it Upon the contrary I believe that the limita Uons upon state and federal govern ments jthe nice balancing of the pow ers of each and of the different de partments in each which have been ao effidaciousj In the past will be maintained in their full RIgor in the future i i Therefore discharging all of our responsibilities as citizens of a country refusing to surrender our rights of citizenship in any degree let us so live that the heroism exemplified on this anU other American battlefields may not be simply a tradition and the national wisdom of our forefa thers avmere legend but that through us and those to cOme America will reach her full destiny in the perma nent establishment of a perfect union which Shall be not for today nor for tomorr w but forever and be so es tablished that it will be for all of overnmentahallnot I 1 1 4I N

ture says Jacob Riis in the May D- elineatorI saw a seemingly unending succession of young rascals so the po lice had stamped them and the record on the stationhouse blotter bore them outgoing from the slums through the wicketgate of the Tombs to the prison and to the gallows and it was ia sight to discourage any one whose horizon was limited by our earthlife The chill of it abides with me yet

briefly attacking his chop with fer vor You know how rushed I always am at Christmas John explained his wife so that I get packages all mixed up and send people the wrong articles by mistake For instance that little break of mailing pink baby booties to our esteemed bachelor uncle John assisted Yesv agreed his wife hastily That particular blunder was tUla sore point The uncle was a rather important personage potentially if not actually But more than that John its the foolish selections you make when you are hurried You dbnt have a chance to show any originality Mrs Briggs who talked beautifully at the club Wednesday showed us that It was a positive insult to our friends to give them things picked Up in a hurry at the last minute Whats all this got to do with your day prompted her husband select- Ing rd hot blsctiit from the plate at hjls elbow Why everything said Mrs Steel by lucidly Please explain insisted Steelby 2we3LZsaid his wife after listen- Ing to Mrs Briggs I made up my mind to be as original as I possibly could be In every single case So I caught the 915 train this morning and sim ply put in the day downtown looking for things Steelby groaned Were you part of that throng of women which tramped up and down the streets all after noon he snapped Why John Of course I spent part of my time there but nearly all day I Just looked at things in the shops I think Its the only way to get ideas just look and look until you happen to think of what you want Oh so thats the Idea Is it Inquired Steelby with a noticeable lack of sympathy Im glad to get a line at last on the processes of the female mind Of course it is Mrs Steelby as sured him tI dont know how many counters Ive stood at to day Every thing is terribly crowded But I al ways managed to get attention one way or another Hows that What do you mean 1 demanded her spouse suspiciously but Mrs Steelby hurried on without noticing the interruption- It was an awfully hard day John You men have no notion what a drain this Christmas shopping Is Especial ly when you insist upon being original By one oclock I was completely fagged out I happened to run across Mrs Peters Just t enandwe went up to the lunchroom and had a cup of tea I wasnt going to eat anything and she thought at first she would just have a glass of milk but everything looked so good that we ended by ordering a chafingdish obster and some salad and coffee and ices After that we both felt rested Hm remarked Steelby to his coffee cupSIt takes these delicate little women to put It all over a cpal heaver when It comes to appetite But It is such a satisfaction to know hat you hivA accomplished n lot pursued his wire dreamily I dont mind being all t1rd out and rotes ing five calls and Bearing my lace waist In a basement bargain depart ment I feel very grateful to Mrs Briggs for putting it Into my head to be really original this Christmas What did you get inquired Steel by with his first real appearance of interest He placed his napkin on the table and sat back in his chair much soothed in spirit by an excellent din nero and prepared to listen to a long catalogue of novel and striking pur chases I got began Mrs Steelby Impressively and paused I got she went on after a moment checking off the items on the fingers of her left hand six monogram handkerchiefs for Ned a game for Willie and calen dar for Sue a box of notepaper for each of Cousin Harrys children a book for your sister a necktie for each of your brothers and for you a big lovely box of cigars For moment Steelby remained star ing at his wife Then he
