Prohibition Doesn't Prohibit
Mark Twain once had a few words to
say about prohibition. "I am a friend
of temperence and want it to see it suc
ceed, but I don't think prohibition is
is practical. The Germans, you see.
prevent it. Look at them. They have
just invented a method of making bran
dy out of sawdust. Now what chance
will prohibition have when a man can
take a I ip-saw and go out and get drunk
with a fence rail? What is the good of
prohibition if a man is able to make
brandy mashes out of the shiog'es on
his roof, or if he can get the delirium
tremens by drinking the legs off of his
kitchen table?" Strong's Magazine.

"The Trail of The Lonesome
Pine."
"The Trail of the Lonesome Pine,"
whioh comes to the Lexington Opera
House Monday and Tuesday, March 3rd
and 4th, and matinee Tuesday,'- is a vi
rule romance that in book form has been
read by three million and more book lov
ers. Eugene Waller's dramatization is
one that warms the blood and stirs the
emotion. It is a story of romantic love
with just a requisite tinge of the feudal
spirit of the Virginia hills to give it bub
bling color. Ia part of June, the primi
tive, sweet, wild mountain girl. Miss
Isabelle Lowe has a role in which she
will make a direct appeal to all who
have already met June in Mr. Fox's
original story. The play is given a beau
tiful production and its long runs at tbe
Boston Theatre and Amsterdam Theatre
New York, were marked by the largest
business of late years.
One of the most capable casts ever
seen outside of New York will appear at
the Lexington Opera House.

At the last term of tho Madison cir

this has never occurred before since
the county was organized. What's
wrong ?
We have in Richmond eight or ten
churches, a Normal school, Madison Fe

and it would seem that all these influen
ces ought to prevent such a state of
things as our docket shows." There is
certainly a remedy for this evil. How
would this do?
Before any county clerk of this State
shall issue a marriage license he shall
require the persons asking for such li
cense to produce a certificate from the
county judge, in which such applica
lion is made, certifying that they are
persons of good habits and that they are
of lawful age, sound in mind and body,
and that the man so applying has a
trade, occupation or profession by which
he can support himself, wife and fami-
This would certainly prevent hasty
and inconsiderate marriages and there
fore greatly lessen the applications for
divorce. Our people must begin to
think and to act.
Something must be done to correct
this growing eil. S.

New Primary Law.
A dispatch from Frankfort says that
candidates before the August primary
have begun to deluge the Attorney Gen
eral's department with inquiries about
the primary law. The two questions
that confused them most are with re
gard to the-signatnres to their petitions
and the method of voting. Many of them
are in doubt whether they must have
the signatures of a certain per cent, of
the voters in every precinct in their
county: They have been informed that
where the law says a certain per cent,
of the voters in a county, they need pay
no attention to precinct lines and may
get their signatures from any part of tbe
county. These signatures must be se
cured nof more than 90 nor less than -X)
days before the primary. Others wish
to know whether the voters affiliated
with one party may by writing on their
ballots vote for a caiididale of another
party, to which the answer is "No."
The same answer is given to those who
ask whe.her they may write on the
ballot the name of a person other than
a candidate nominated by petition.

Bosworth's Bondsmen Ques
tion Pension Law.
Henry M. Bosworth, State Auditor,
has asked Attorney General Garnett for
an opinion as to the constitutionality of
the Confederate Pension Act, passed by
the last General Assembly. The act
provides for pensions for veterans of the
Civil war who fought for the Confedera
cy and if decided to be constitutional
will mean an annual expenditure of
$100,000.
The question of the constitutionality
of the act was raised by Auditor Bos
worth's bondsmen. Owing to the deple
ted condition of the State treasury none
of the pensions have been paid, although
over 500. have been allowed. Captain
W. J. Stone, of K Ottawa, has been ap
pointed pension agent under the act and
has put the act into operation. Had
there been sufficient money in the treas
ury to pay the pensions, it is doubtful if
the constitutionality of the act would
ever have been attacked.
