Gentleman who arc so very a'nxinus to

man once fell into a hole and seriously
injured himself, because ho attended the
stars, to the exclusion of the a

night. The point in this parable is in
the application of it. Wice men, patriots
see in the conditions prevailing in
America the leaven of revolution. Are
they wrong? Pintoeracy answer yes
and scorn the idle the false

During the Presidential campaignno

up and down the land that prosperity

The Geneial Assemblv of Illinois now
in has been organized with a
pliant speaker of the notiseof Hepresen
tatives on lines dictated bv a corrupt
machine with n manifest purpose to put
every corporation in the State under
tribute.
This is a pretty "picture drawn of Re
publican rule, which was to bhew up in
contract to that of the Democrats under
Governor Altgeld. But it is in the nest
paragraph that The Times-Herald dis
closes the necessity which impels a Re

in Older to pay the debts contracted in
purchasing enough votes to carry the
State last November. The corporations

A 'few Meeks ago I was riding along a
dim,' rouglrroad in Rowan county, Ky.,
when all ol a sudden, at the left of the
road, I heard a very loud explosion of
angry vv ords. I thought two men must
be engaged in a rough-and-tumble ficht,
and was not a little surprised, oncoming
near, to behold a tall, broad,
old fellow his
'fists a low scrub oak bush, and accompa
nying each blow with an oath.
I drew rein aud watched his singular
conduct for 6ome lime without his being
aware of my presence.
He would draw back his great maul of
(1st and strike the bush a terrific blow,
nuking the leaves fly like chaff before a
flail.
"Now, confound ye," he would yell,
"have ye got enough of it? Do you
think jou can do with that for a few
hours? Heigh? Think ye kin?"
Then he would throw his body backward
as if being assaulted and pushed
pretty sharply. He would "duck hN
head" as if be;ng smitten by a heavy
hand. He would fall to his knees, then
rise, with affected difficulty, and assault
the bush again with a fury and fotce
that would send the loaves flying likea
cey t.f startled birds. Finally he 7
halted for a spell, looked about and saw
me.
With a loud, coarse laugh bent once
left thebnsh and came towards me. '
"Mister," he said, as he walked up and
laid a big, ragged hand on my horse'.s
neck, "I guess you think I'm crazv, don't
ye?"
"Oh, no."
"Then je think I'm a natcral born,
dodgasted fool?"
"Oh, no."

Ex-President Hanison has written of
"A Day With the President at His Desk"
for the March Ladies'vlIoino Journal.
The article is said to be singularly
in the detail witli. whichiit describes
the w"e1irisoine routine of the
Piesident.""V If ib said that General Har
rison, in this article, has delivered himself
with great directness and vigor, relative
to the annoyances that are visited
upon a Chief Executive by persistent
office-seekers, and he suggests a unique
plan, by which the President's burdens
in that direction could be greatlv light
ened, and he be cna'ded to devote more
attention to more important milters. A
feature of the article that will have a
timely interest to those ambitious to
serve the country under the incoming
Administration, describes very fullv how
the President makes appointments to

THE DEMOCRATIC WAVE.
No wave of the ocean is so fierce but
that there is another wavebij; enough to
roll it back from its course.
The tides of Democracy which swept
this country in 18S4 and 1892, were hi
their turn rolled back again by still
greater tides.
Already a gathering btorm of Democracy
is starting the billons on the course
of the next storm, which w ill sweep aside
the McKinley typhoon that was the last
conqueror.
Foolish predictions of "prosperity"
have resulted in bank failures, increased
stagnation, general deprefiMOii even
suicide and were the election held
again to-morrow the lesult would be the
reverse of what it was.
However it 13 childish to deal in ivhat
might have been, and the great currency
discussion must give place to lier
issues, and the great Democratic pulse in
every State will soon show a stronger
beat.
Evcrv State, every county, every city,
will contribute separately and collectively
these good results to a national
cause.
Side issues will go.
Lost causes will disappear from the
"political horizon.
Ancient history may be recorded, but
it no longer furnishes us with precepts
and rules.
Democracy must rise on the billows a
grander nobler cause, and, sweeping
over the treacherous sands, blot out the
footprints of the past.
It is this Democracy county
must foster now.
Torn and lent, the battle chieftains
must turn good Samaritans and bind up
her wounds The Argonaut baa preached
this 'harmony, and it sees its fondest
hopes coining l,to pass, not with the
strong and hurley presence of force, but
by the placid smile of convalescence.
Efforts in party lines have not contributed
to tlifaso much as mismanagement
aud scandal within the epublieui
party in Kentucky.
Imbecility at first brought only contempt;
but the repeated neglect of our
State alhiirs, coupled with the
of State officers, has wrought a fc
ish mdignntiom, and looking alter a
common good -with great unanimity, the
Democratic party is determined to take
control of its State affalrH.
For this reason, Fayette county Demo
crats will contributo thcirassisiancc, and
from a standpoint of so high a character
the "whip and ecoriTof timo"'must stand
aside.
From' the ashes of the late contest,
Phoenix-like Dernocrasy rises again to
dominate this free country.
Let us felicitate each other as brothers

that wc all. thpueht it was our or that

0TATO W0R a dollar.
V remaikable story is told by Thomas
McNaniara of the strange adventures of
silver dollar and a potato which borders
on the miraculous. Friday afternoon
says the Lexington Leader, while assorting
out a lot of potatoes to select the
frozen from the good ones, he came
aeries a pecular looking potato and laid
aside. Shortly after he examined the
article and decided on breaking it open.
What was his surprise to find safely in
the heart of the potato a sound silver
dollar with the date 18S5 engraved there
on. No one can account for the appearance
ol the coin except on the theory
that the farmer who had done the planting
had dropped the dollar in a hill and
the potato had grown around it.
Lookir.g Up.
The price on tobacco has improved
considerably during trie last mouth. One
hogshead sold List week at $19 50, the
highest price of the season for '!X hurley
tobacco. Mr. J. T. Gillis, of this county,
sold his crop last week at $2.95, $5.40,
$7.!X), $8 SO, $10.00 and $11.75. He is
well pleased with his sale. D. B. Gaines
received an average of $6.50, and others
have sold at equally good figures. Anderson

The lmisville Times of Saturday contained
a splended picture of Col. V. P.
Johnson. Chairman Democratic State
Central Committee, with the following
terte aud pointed letter on the question
of Democratic harmony:
LnLiNGTO.v, Ky., Feb. 12.
Editor Time, Louisville, Ky.:
My Dear Sir The circular letter I sent
out recently indicated a liberal policy
and places the responsibility for wise
and prudent action in local politics on lo
cal committees where it belongs.
It was intended to relievo the situation
of its embarrassment, and give even-voter
an opportunity to choose between
Democracy and Republicanism. Whatever
our party differences have been.
Democrats prefer standing together
against the Itepublican party.
I simply debire to see the fullest opportunity
given every Deinecrat to think
and' act for himself. Uniform action
can not be expected in all localities on
local questions. Diversity of judgement
fs proof of honesty and independence.
The delegates to the State Convention
which will meet within the next bix
months, will harmonize these differences
according to Democratic principles, for
Democratic success. I do not think it
best to touch further on the situation
at this time for publication. I am respectfully,
P.'P Johskon,
Chairman Democratic State Central and
Executive Committees.
On Saturday last at Lexington Daughters
of the American Revolntian organized
thi Bryant Station Chapter D. A.
II. Thjs is Lexington's second chapter.
While the inference is that it was done
on account of too great numbers of the
mother chanter or some like cause, it has
been intimated that "politics" was at
the foundation. Twelve "daughters"
can constitute a chapter. Every chapter
is entitled to a vote in nil State and
National elections. A lady of Lexington
is u candidate for State Regent. There
are several other candidates from Louis
ville and Covington. Iris said that
friends of the fair Lnxington candidate
may have organized tho new chapter
paitly for its vote. Among tho members
of the newly organized chapter are
Mrs. Campbell Scott, Mrs Nannie Fitz
huh Maclean, Mrs. Harbison, of
Mr. Hcrndon, Georgetown;
Miss Kate Desha Lucas, Dr. McClure.
Others are transferred members from the
Lexington chapter.
Tho "New York World sums it up os

and ended at 5 o'clock. Therefore
its pleasure cost at the rate $100,000 an

very little originality, much stiff-

John R. McLean's
Great Newspaper.
Without a single exception, there
is beyond doubt no greater or more
popular newspaper in the United
States than the Cincinnati Enquirer;
or a more successful publisher than
its proprietor, Mr. John R. McLean.
The old-time prices for the Daily
Enquirer have been maintained, and
its circulation largely increased each
year; hard times and cheaper jour
nals failing to arrest its onward march
and high appreciation of the public
for its true worth and merit.
The Weekly Enquirer at beginning
of the campaign year was offered at
50 cents a year, and its circulation
increased by the addition of over
200,000 new subscribers; the most
substantial and coveted testimonial a
publisher could desire.
When asked for the secret of such
success, Mr. McLean frankly answers :
The Enquirer has no opinions to force
upon its patrons, it simply prints the
facts and tells the truth that the reader
may form his own opinions. By
maintaining the price of the paper,
more news and greater variety can be
furnished, and every class of business
interests catered to, which a cheapei
journal cannot afford.
The very liberal support given the
Enquirer by the public at large, makes
it incumbent upon the management
to serve it faithfully with zeal and enterprise
in minor matters as well as
those of greater magnitude.
