CONVENTION NEXT TUESDAY. Wo trust the democracy will remember the convention (.-ailed for next Wednesday at the court house lor the selection of delegates to the '.istrict convention on the S'h at Frankfort. There is little to prevent the h!tendance of large numbers of the part) from all parts of the county this time of the year, and those who have an interest in the success of it should make a an object to attend. LetthepHrty mnchinery be placed in proper order is always a good indication of future success. The bickerings of the past should be forgotten in a determination to achieve success. What this or that man may have done iu the past to create dissension in the ranks is of no moment for the future, and if we are to win must be overlooked and forgotten. What is needed lirst is harmony, second discretion, and third and last determination of purpose. Thuse will win for us the day and achieve for us a victory. The 4th is the fitting time to begin the party organization, is the time to open new books transcribing therein our principles, and the motives inspiring us in political warfare. Turn out then, democrats, take a hand in county political affairs from the start to the close. If you want success you must labor for it.

If you want to win begin in the proper manner to do so.

STOP THE WORK.

It is stated that the regents or managers of the soldiers State monument will ask at the next session of the State legislature an appropriation of 8200,000 from the State to complete the work, and much that has been done on the monument will be changed or done over again.

If the tax payers of the State were consulted they would say no. Stop the work, close up the books and quit. The monument has already cost the State over §300,000, a sum much greater than was originally intended to be spent upon it. Asa work of art it will satisfy coming generations of people fully as much as if a half million of dollars worth more of gew gaws had been placed upon it. The monument, or the management of the work upon it has been nothing more than a sinecure for decayed politicians, and the people should not be forced to feed these individuals any longer. Like the State capita! at Albany, N. 1*., it never will be completed if these people can have their wayin the matter, but will have it under construction for years to come. It is a sugar teat that the politicians cannot let go. The most sensible thing that the next legislature can do is to stop any attempted appropriation for the monument, call it completed and di3 chargo all connected with it for good.

USE COMMON SENSE. Gladstone speaking of the probable war between this country and Great Britain sas to avert it use common sense. That is the correct thing DO doubt. In this day and ago it would

look

like the most stupendous folly that a treat bloody and expensive war should take place between two of the leading countries of the world over a few million acres of land situated in a country regarding which we have no interest aside from its relations to the Monroe doctrine. War is a serious thing. It begets demoralization of the people in manv v/aye, it creates great oxpensi's which the people must bear, it sacrifices human life, and at no time is to be def-ired, By the udo of common sense by the diplomats of both'countries it can be averted. There need not necessarily be any particular humiliation on the part of either country in arriving at a satisfactory adjustment of the present difficulty without bloodshed and this should be done.

THE DIFFERENCE.

If a war between this country and England should occur, which we think is not probable, it would be a maritime warfare and the contest for mastery would take place on water as a genoral thing. The contrast between the two countries in the matter of war ships, guns, etc., at this time is wonderful aDd it would look like England at the outset would greatly have the advantage. England has 564 war ships, the IJnitod States 71 England's ships carry 7,000 guns, this country 800 England has'l42 torpedo boats, this country 22.

orty-fivK rooms is the number required at St. Louis for McKinley and his boomers at the coming national republican convention. He may need many more than that ere the convention closes and then not have enough. One thing is evident, the candidates before the convention expect to spend much money and their henchmen expect to bleed them freely.

RECOGNIZE CUBA.

If continued and undaunted courage with much success attending their efforts in their struggle for liberty count for anything, then the insurgents of Cuba batthng against the Spaniards are certainly entitled to it by the United States and neighboring governments. For over a year they have been lighting against superior forces but with a courage born of a determination to free their country from Spanish rule and considering the inadequate manner in which \hey have been equipped have made remarkable records. Though poorly armed they have met their enemies iu scores of engagements and proven victorious over them. They are entitled to well wishes and encouragement of all lovers of liberty. They are determined it would seem to win and to drive the

Spaniards from the island, have proven themselves worthy of recognition as belligorants. Give them recognition and the inspiration to make a free government will increase greatly among those who are now proving their courage by their work.

A SUIT AGAINST THE CITYMrs. Geo. Amtuerman, living on east Market street, has entered suit for 820,000, againat tin* city for damage to her person through negligence, as she avers, in permitting the street roller to stand in the street by which a horse attached to a buggy in which sho was sitting became unmanageable, throw her out and by which she is permanently injured.

While the plaintiff, of course, will hardly expect such a judgment as she asks there can be no question that the city through the carelessness of its employees will eventually pay a good big bill of costs if nothing more. The purchase of "Trilby" in the first place was an unwise piece of business. We fail to see where it has been of such vast benefit in improving our btreets, as

NEEDING FUNDS.

The directors of the two State prisons who were selected 6olely through political favoritism, are skirmishing around now for funds to keep these institutions running. When douiocrats had control of them they were mopt always self sustaining, and when Murdock was warden of the northern prison he frequently made a surplus for the State, It simply shows the difference between ill experienceu politicians in business matters, and plain practical business men. It would be thousands upon thousands of dollars to tax payers if civil servic.- reform could be enforced in State matters and political ninnies made to walk.

THE plan of the republicans in Congress seems to be to do just as little legislation as possible during tho remainder of this administration. They are afraid to commit the party to anything of present benefit to the people. They are afraid of injuring tho party's prospects and therefore will do nothing. They are time-servers, pure and simple. They timidly advance but little. They are political cowards. They will permit business to buffer from fear if they do anything it may injure their party.

THE wool men are kicking. They want the government to protect them, to still make their living for them. We do not Bee why the producers of wheat have not an equal reason for asking the government to help support them also. The price of wheat hardly pays for the labor of producing it. Why not tax the people to sapport them as well as wool raisers and sugar planters.

Br the burping of a theater iu Baltimore last we^k about thirty persons were killed either by the falling of walls or through the conflagration that occurred. The extra pious and professed God fearing people in many communities will no doubt attribute it to a visitation of Providence upon those who attend such places. They most always do. 'v

ONLY one democrat in the House of Representatives votped for what is termed a "bond bill" for'the purpose of increasing the revenuio by issuing three per cent, bonds. It iB a republican measure, but 47 members of the party in the house voted against it. It was not anticipated that the* President would favor it,

OPINIONS DIFFER.

Gen. Wallace's ideas regarding the Sultan of Turkey and his actions in the part toward Armenia do not conform at all to those of many Americans who have and do yet reside in the eastern country. The General represents the Sultan as intelligent and humane in his actions, while the others have a contrary opinion. Gen. Wallace resided, in Turkey four years. Many of these missionaries and others not engaged in that calling have lived in Turkey and other eastern countries four or five times as long as tho General and their observations are probably as correct or more so than the General's and we believe the gem ral verdict will be that the Sultan is a cold, crafty and cruel potentate, and that the sooner his country is dismantled the bettor it will be for the civilized world.

That all might be but its city council would have to be of a very different material from which it has been composed for many years. It would have to be a council of some practical common sense, that would not aim to placo a mouutainous debt upon the city, that would see where improvements were made those doing them shoulol do them right or get no pay until they did, that would not make improvements either until the tax payers were well able to pay for them, and would eschew favoritism or a party spirit in all mattors that concerned those

A Significant Departure.

With the parture of another year when a review in made o*f the condition of affairs, it is only riuht that some thought be given to the physical body which enables everyone to battle with Jife'e problem and figure for themselves the profit or loss on the trial balance Bheet. Though the bank account may be large and each one's material gain be great, it would not bo surprising if it suddenly dawns upon many that good health has been greatly improvised by the low condition of the blood. It is in this state that the lactic acid in the vital fluid attacks tho fibrous tissues, particularly the joints, making known the local manifestations of rheumatism. Thousands of people have found in Hood's Sarsaparilla the great blood purifier, a positive and permanent cure for rheumatism.

It is charged that Alexander T. Letts, a convict in the New Jersey State pi ison, has managed, while still a prisoner, to swindle a prison contractor.

A tired stomach is very much like a sprained ankle. It you suffer from any of the symptons of dyspepsia, your stomach is tired. It needs a crutch. Wo must relieve it of all work for a time, or until it is restored to its natural strength. To do this successfully we must use a food which is already digested outside of the body, and which Will aid the digestion of other foods that may be taken with it. Such a product is the Shaker Digestive Cordial.

Tte Shakers have utilized the digestive principles present in plants for the manufacture of this article, and its success has been truly phenomenal. You can try it for the nominal sum of 10 cents, as sample bottles are sold by all druggists at this price.
