EX-SENATOR DEBOE

Brazil Has Gnoil Chance

Iouisvil!e, Ky April l.-The word
is now I .jing passed among Republicans
that former United States Senator
W. ,'. Detwe has a good chance of appointment
as minister to Peru or
Brazil.
, Of course, if he should land. Leslie
Combs will have to pack up his clothes
and come home. Mr Combs' return to
Kentucky to make n berth for Mr.
Ik-boo will mitke cold chills run up and
down the backs of the anti-Bradley
men in the state.
Reports relative to Mr. Deboe mav
not be authentic, but a number of
prominent Republicans are discussing
them. However that may be, it is
known that Mr. Combs will have to
work a miracle to retain his place as
minister to Peru.
It is practically certain that Combs
will be succeeded by n Kcntuckian, and
it is not unreasonable to figure that
Mr. Deloe will have a good chance.
There nre doubtless many senators
who- would like to see Deboe given recognition.

BULLETIN ON FLOURSPAR

Work IssHei oy Kentucky
Geological Survey.
Lexington, Ky., April 5.-The Kentucky
Geological Survey, Charles J.
Norwood, director, his just issued
Bulletin No. 9. a volumn treating on
the "Flourspar Deposits of Kentucky,"
which is the most complete publication
on this mineral ever gotten out in the
United States. It is by Assistant Director
F. Julius Fohs, and is replete
with data relating to the general
of fluorspar, its techology, etc.
Neccessnrily the bulletin deals chiefly
with the deposits in the western end of
tho State. The bulletin says the deposits
of fluorspar Central Kentucky
have received less attention from prospectors
than they may derive. In fact,
it seems not improbable that systematic
explorations of those rocks that lie
below the limestone will develop
depoiits of importance. It is
also intended to work a further study
of the barytes deposits of that part of
the Sta'tc.
GOOD OPINIONS
WELL STATED.
Henderson, Ky., March 20, 1909.
Editor Tobacco Tiding:
Dear Sir I am in receipt of a letter
from a most ardent supporter of the
America Society of h'quity, one who
believes in the etllcency of the A. S. of
E. to protect "-the farming industry.
Ask fag an opinion in one breath, and
advocating a most vigorous policy in the
next, he Bays: "I'm in favor of nn
A. S. of E. pool this year, and for the
succeeding years. I'm in favor of
seperating the sheep from the goats.
I'm in favor o a real 'square deal.' I
would say that no one may have the
privilege of pooling his tobacco who is
not man enough to pay the same costs
his fellows pay. All of the officers of
the A. S. of E. that 1 have talketl too,
think that tho A, S. of E. Should not
play second fiddle to any so-called
Thinli&ig so, I hold they should
think out loud. "I
Now, I admire ,t his gentleman's earn

time I a little ddnbtful as to the expediency
of such stcrnuous action. I

L
MARION, CRITTENDEN COUNTY, KENTUCKY APRIL 8, 1909
public sale, at the
in Princeton, Ky.,
between the hours
tho church building
Kentucky have been A. S. of E. pools.
It was the A. S. of E. that taught us
how to pool. It was the A. S. of E.
that organized the several tobacco associations
and put then, in working con
dition. It is the plnn of the A. S. of E.
that each type, or rather the growers
of each type, should manage their own
affairs; that is, the details.
The A. S. of E. was big enough and
broad enough to consent that those not
members of the A. S. of E. might
become members of the tobacco asso
ciations by pooling. But it was con
templated that the several tobacco as
sociations would meet together at least
annually around the A. S. ofE. hearth
stone, and there take counsel, the one
with tho other, for mutual interest and
tha general welfare. It was also-contemplated
that those pooling would assuredly
como up like men and join the
A. o. of E. after being made beneficiaries
of its effective and practicability.
Much can be said, pro and con, as to
the foresight of those who shaped that
policy. Personally, I think it was the
best that could have been done at the
time, and has hastened the time of
demonstrating tho efficiency of the A.
S. of E. and brought blessings to thousands
who could have received them
through no other source. The tobacco
associations, however, have been tempting
fields for those who have a greater
regard for self-interest than public
wenl; consequently, organization has
not been fostered and pushed as it
should have been. There has been too
much of the glamor of hero worship,
and not sufficient regard or apprecia
tion of the real power that was holding
the trust at arm's length, viz; the
number pooling and their cohesiveness.
Growers, I think, are realizing that
more and more, and nre looking to the
A. S. of E. as the proper fold,
and are getting in at n rate
that will include all the tobacco growers
in the state before the 1909 crop is
houaed. Wherefore I think there is little
douht of the 1909 pool being an A.
S. of E. pool in its broadest sense.
It's my opinion that the opponents

As Flames Entered the Cell Windows

Burns Bat Inmates
are Saved.
Leavenworth, Kan.. April fi. -The
military prison nt Leavenworth was
destroyed by fire late tonight. The
prisoners were removed from the cell
houses under guard of United States
troops and confined in stockade. None
of the prisoners Escaped, so far as a
hasty resume of the situation after
midniirht showed, but this may not Iks
deffinitely known until daylight.
Owing to thd low water pre.ure the
fire department nt tho fort was almost
useless. The fire was fought by tho
soldiers who were ordered out of their
quarters, and those who were on leave
in the city were nt once called back to-
tho post.
Two soldiers were injured while fighting
the (lames, but none of the prisoners-
were hurt in any wny.
Much excitement attended the removal
of. the prisoners, many of whom
are desperate characters. It was feared
they would make an organized break
for saftey.
The flVo broke out about 10 o'clock
in tho tailor shop nnd it was soon seen
that the' building was doomed. A great
outcry nt once broke out in the prison,
the convicts fearing they would be
burned, to death. They battered on
the doors of their cells as 'he light of
the fire streamed through the windows.
Many .screamed in terror, as the
for a moment refused to remove
them. All the soldiers that could be
spared from the ranks of tho fire fighters
were detailed as guards and then
the delivery of prisoners 'began.

Nashville, Tenn;, April 3. -The Cumberland
Presbyterian Church in Tennessee
this afternoon won the noted
church case with which the Tennessee
Supreme Court has been wrestling for
two years. The Supreme Court, in an
opinion of pages, delivered
by Justice M. M. Nell, holds that the
steps sought to be taken by a portion
of the Cumberland Presbyterian church
in uniting with the Presbyterian church
U. S. A., were not effective.
It was held that the Cumberland
church still exists, and that its members
still retain its creed, doctrines.
etc. It was held that unionists had al
lied themselves with another different
church and doctrines.
The Cumberlands are given the
church property, and the unionists are
adjudged not to have a right or title to
it. Their bill, in which thp mai
recover church property in Fnyetteville
Tennessee, is dismissed with cost.

NUMBER 45
OLLIE JAMES RECEIVES
STORM OF APPLAUSE
And Business of House Suspended
For Some Minutes,
While Many Members
Including
REPUBLICANS CROWBED
HIM TO CONGRATULATE
Him Upon HIS Great Efforts When he
Concluded, what Was Said to
Be The Best Speech on the
Payne Tariff BUI.
'ROASTED PROTECTION GIVEN
SUGAR AND COFFEE TRUST.
Washington, April 3. "There is loot
enough in it for us all," was the conclusion
of Ollie James' speech on tho
Payne bill in the House today, which
created a greater uproar of applause
among the Democrats than any tariff
speech delivered this session. Mr.
James sooke about fifty minutes.
From the 6tart he attacked the inconsistencies
and injustices of the
pending bill and his contusion was a
climax of denunciation which fairly
swept the minority members from their
feet. He ridiculed the agriculture
schedules and "roasted the protection
given the sugar and tobacco trust.
He received a storm of applause when
he concluded and the business pf the
House was practically suspended for
some minutes, while many members,
including several Republicans, crowded
about him to congratulate Kim upon his
efforts.
What probably will be the last week
of general debate on the Payne tariff
bill was begun in the house today.
The session convened at 10 o'clock with
every prospect of a busy day of speech
making.
Declaring that the Payne bill "goe3
one step further in the pillaging of
humanity," Mr. James asked what is
'a reasonable profit' that the Republicans
claim the measure would allow?
Who shall decide?" He asked "shall
it be left to Andrew Carnegie?"
" Prick ed by a conscience that has
allowed him to loot for many- years,
Mr Carnegie,, he said, "commenced

towns of the country libraries, where
