The people of Ohio are to bo congratu
lated ou the defeat of the bill to steal
the canals of that State. The victory of
the friends of the canala i'b all the more
significant becaueo Boss Cox, of Cincin
nati, used his f lTorts to put the measure
through. The vote was a rebuke to
"Coxiem."
The Sherman law was pas3ed in 1890.
Fourteen years afterward the first decis
ion in favor of the people was won under
it and it is a barren one. What of the
coal trust, sugar trust, beef trust, steel
trust, et al ? The man who pretenda to
believe that the Republican party is sin
cere in its war against trusts is an easy
mark, is the opinion of the Georgetown
Newe"-Deinocrat, and Br'er Eylar is right.
THE POSTAL SCANDAL.
The effort of the Democrats to force
an investigation of the Postoffico Depart
ment was renewed Thursday but was
again defeated by the Republicans. The
latter claim that the rottenness has al
ready been exposed, and some of the
rascals convicted, but the Democrats
assert that the bottom has not been
reached yet. On this point the Wash
ington correspondent of the Courier-Journal
furnishes some interesting figures in
regard to the cost of transporting the
mails which certainly indicate the need
of a thorough probing of the service:
In 1882 there was under the system of
competition then in vogue, a clear sur
plus of ?1,400,984 to the credit of the
PoBtoflice Department, bo that it was
then on a paying basis. How this has
been changed will appear when it is
stated that the deficiency in expenditures
in this department in 1903 amounted to
54,500,044, which Congress iB now called
upon to provide for.
I have already shown that all this large
deficiency could have boen saved in
Shallenberger's office by wise business
management. In my last article on this
subject, I referred to the recent contest
between Capt. Castle, late Auditor for
the Postofilce Department, and Shallen
berg'er, (Second Assistant Postmaster
General) which finally resulted in the
retirement of the Auditor. This has
brought prominently before Congress and
the country the shiftless and unbusiness
like methods that have prevailed in the
contract office during the past four years.
I stated that nearly 540,000,000 are ex
pend for railroad Bervice annually, the
actual amount estimated and called for
by the Postmaster General for the cur
rent year being 538,242,000, and the esti
mate for the c mine year being $39,098,
000. Add to this $13 700,000 for railway
pcstoflicf8 and 5000,000 for electric car
service and vou have a total expenditure
of $54,004,000 for railway transportation.
But if we take into consideration the
cost of star, Bteamboat, mail messenger,
wagon service in cities, pneumatic serv
ice and "special facilities" we find the
extraordinary expenditure of over $72,
000,000 for mail transportation in the
United States, every item of which must
be examined and audited by the Sixth
Auditor for the Postoffice Department.
That there is an absolute necessity for
reform in the methoda of settling these
tremendous accounts goes without saying.
Before his forced retirement Capt. Castle
repeatedly declared that glaring defects
existed in the Bystein of auditing, which
he was powerless, owing to Shallenberg
er'e attitude, to remedy. The Controller
of the Treasury commented in severe
terms on this defective svstem, and stated
that the data furnished the Auditor was
insufficient. And as yet nothing has
been done to remedy the evil.
PLENTY OF IT.

DIED THURSDAY NIGHT.
Venerable Father of Mrs Robert Ficklin
Passes Away nt (lis Home iu
Covington.
fCoinniercIal-Trlbune
Death removed a patriarchal citizen of
Covington Thursday night.
Charles Albert McLaughlin, known to
every man i'n the city for tho last half
century and more, died at tho homo of
his son, Albert, 1040 Scott street. He was
eighty-six years old and was born in Cov
ington in 1817. Death was due to infir
mities cf Bge.
Up to within the last five years he was
an active business man, but the infirmi
ties of age induced him at that time to
lay aside worry and he had since dwelt
qu'etly either iu Covington or at his fatm
near Big Bone Springs in Boone County.
Fifty years ago he was the leading bus
iness man of Covington and was consid
ered the wealthiest man in tho city. His
home was in what is now tho Colonial
Flats, at Fifth and Greenup streets, and
no house in tho city was more hospitable.
Ten years ago Mr. and Mrs. McLaugh
lin celebrated their golden wedding at
the home of her eon, William. Three
years ago the faithful companion of his
life died. Since then Mr. McLaughlin
bad been in failing health.
At the celebration of the anniversary
four generations were represented. Wil
liam P. McLaughlin and hiB eon, Wil
liam P., Jr., and Charles, tho son of Wil
liam P., Jr., besides the old man.
Threo boob and three daughters sur
vive. Thoy are William P., Charles A.
and Edward B. McLaughlin, of Coving
ton, Mrs. Robert Ficklin, of Maysville;
Mrs. Frank Clark, of Matoon, 111., and
Mrs. William Orr, of Covington. There
are eight grandsons, eleven granddaugh
ters, four great-grandsons and Beven
great-granddaughters.
Rev. W. S. Priest formerly of this city
is now minister of the Central Christian
Church of Columbus, O. Several other
ex-Maysvillians, among them Mr. and
Mrs. Clinkenbeard and children, are
members of his church.
Mr. Emil WeiB is erecting a slaughter
bouse and cold storage plant on his lot
on the Fleming pike. Mr. John F. Mo
ran of this city has the contract for the
foundation and the John Dupps Com
pany of Cincinnati will construct and
furnish the buildings.
A strong effort is being made to have
Governor Beckham pardon George Mil
ler, who was given a year's sentence in
the penitentiary for running a faro bank.
Miller is ready to sign a pledge never to
gamble in any way, shape or form in the
State again. Dean Baker P. Lee went to
Frankfort Thursday and made a plea for
Miller's pardon.
Tho Bourbon grand jury in its first re
port Thursday indicted the poolroom op
erators, sheet writers, ticket writers,
cashier and chalker of Paris on alleged
charge of common nuisance. The pool
room has been paying a $5 fine in the
PariB Police Court every morning, and
the cases will be fought out in the Cir
cuit Court on the plea of former convic
tion. Governor Beckham has approved the
bill prohibiting the sale or transportation
of wild turkeys, pheasants, grouse, part
ridge and quail within the State of Ken
tucky. It makes it unlawful .for a com
mpn carrier to carry game except in pos
session cf the hunter who lawfully killed
it. Each bird or fowl iB made a separate
offense, and the penalty is from $10 to
$25 for the first offense, and from $25 to
$50 for any subsequent offense.
Reversing the case of Dewitt against
the O. and O. taken up from Bracken
County, tho Court of Appeala says: "In
an action against a railroad company and
one of its employes for damages, tho fact
that appellant had brought a suit against
the railroad company alone, which he
dismissed without prejudice upon an
ordor being made to transfer it to the
Federal Court, the lower court was not
without jurisdiction because of the re
moval of the first suit to the Federal
Court, where it was dismissed, and it was
error to overrulo appellant's demurrer to
the answer of appellees, and to sustain
tho plea to the jurisdiction."
In the appearance at the opera house,
matinee at 2:30 and to-night at 8:30, of
Willis Maxwell Goodhue's jolly comedy,
"Hello Bill," the patrons will enjoy one of
the greatc'Bt comedy treats of the season.
Incidental to the plot there are scores of
absurdities and it is not exaggeration to
say, that laughter never ceases. The
company engaged in this year's presen
tation' of the play is a notable one, in
cluding in its ranks Harry Blakemore,

Read what a Mason County farmer si) 5 of his Deering Binder:
This is to certify that 1 bought a Deering Tonguo Truck 8 ft Binder In 1902. and wish to say
that is as far ahead of the old 6 and 7 ft. binders aa day is brighter than night. Iu one day I cut SO
acres of heavy wheat, and without tiring my horses any more than cutting 15 acres with tho old 0
ft. binder. It is perfectly free from neck weight or side draft and a pleasure to operate, elevating
grain that the old small binders would choke ou. Too much cannot be said in favor of this match
less labor saver. I can cheerfully recommend it to all my friends as the binder par excellence.
Very truly. CHAS. T. MARSHALL.

PERMANENTLY CURED BY

ORRINE
A SAFE, SURE AND HARMLESS SPECIFIC
Physicians pronounce drunkenness a disease of the nervous system, creating a morbid
craving' for a stimulant. Continued indulgence in whiskey, beer or wine eats away tho
stomach lining and stupefies the digestive organs, thus destroying the digestion and
ruining the health. No "wilt power' can heal tho inflamed stomach membranes.
"ORRINE" permanently removes the craving for liquor by acting directly on the
affected nerves, restoring the stomach and digestive organs to normal conditions, improving
the appetite and restoring the health. No sanitarium treatment necessary ; " ORRINE "
