and leaned down over hc water the animal got to its eet and with raised crest stood or a moment regarding him fix dly then paced slowly up the pier and pressing close to him licked the hand which hung mo tionless at his side The man gave a mighty start and looked down in amazement at at the great creature which seemed to have risen from the boards at feet But as at that instant the moon broke from the cloud and poured its light in a silver flood upon the water it showed him in the beautiful eyes looking up into his an expression of such undoubted sympathy that a wave of deep gratitude a strong reaction Srom the terrible silence and loneliness passed over him and sinking down upon the pier he held his hand out silently The splendid creature understanding as thongh he had spoken pressed closer into his face and deliberately laid his great head upon his shoulder A lump rose in the mans throat tears the first perhaps for many years welled up into his eyes and in another moment both arms were clasped closely about the dogs neck And so they sat neither moving save that now and then the noble animal would turn and lick the face pressed so close to his own till finally weariness over came them both and stretching themselves side by side the mans arm still about his rescuers neck his head pillowed upon the shaggy coat they both slept The moon sank lower and lower toward the

Purification of the Press of the Baltimore Yearly Meeting of Friends arid here is their letter to the Press of tins country for ig6 shoWing how great is their undertaking RESPECTED FRIENDS The courteous consideration shown for six years to our Committee as the representatives of Friends by Journalists and differ ent members of the Press induces us to ask again the reading ofa new appeal sent forth since our last Annual Meeting of this year The expression given there evinced a warm appreciation of tile efforts made by many of the leading papers of our day through a high standard of their own to raise the tone of those which heretofore have beenUa menace to our homes We trust their good example and the potent in fluence thus obtained will mqre and more prevail until we find all papers bringing food convenient for the day We ask that those advertise ments both personal and medical which now invite to sin be utterlys cast out and that the detail basing crime no more be sought as catering to a taste which Journ alists and patrons have alike determined to reform Let pictutes which have often proved insidious roads to ruin for the young bekhenceforth seen no more fairer lovelier paths be traced leading to virtue and to hopemWhen this most things is found when truth has van quished error and right triurnphcdp over wrong then may fully acknowledge that our papers serve as one of the best agencies we have for the enlightenment which every nation craves and the SVCry upi of tic day HbaJfing y upon the Press as holding in itsP hand the balace of the scale which the

cordiallyYour friendsaWe give extracts from the body of the report that will indicate more fully the work that is under taken and the encouragement be ing received This report begins thus With an augmented faith and hope born of the manifest increase of public sentiment which more and more demands a pure Press 1wegreater watchfulness and diligence in the pursuit of this good work Going further into the details of tIme work the report continues Conscious of the vast influence exerted by the Editorial and Press Associations everywhere upon the papers of our land we have sought this medium also for the promulgation of our views Fiftytwo private letters with last years report and the new Appeal went to the President and Secretaries of different Editorial Press Associations asking that it be read at their next annual meeting of the State Many kindly promises of acquiescence have been received Thus we trust our wish has been fulfilled On every hind as in the in the past much courtesy has marked the language of these re pliesThe movement recived official and hearty recognition before the National Editorial AssociatloIC held in St Augustine resolution offered by Mr 1bIde- I n before

asks the indulgence ol its rcadeis while it makes a few plain statements of facts covering iti i1 r ugiffiflil 1 r As to Mr Moore The man or the paper that says Mr Paul M Moore appeared at the polling place in the northeast Earlington precinct on the morning of the late election for the purpose of taking his seat as judge of said election in said precinct or that he did appear there at all a the hour for the opening of said polls for any purpose or that his eligibility as judge of said election was discussed before the board of officers of said election and that Mr Moore being present was declared inelligible and that he withdrew after protest that manor tint paper states a falsehood wilfully and maliciously- Mr Moore notified the Repub yor lican precinct committeemen two or three days before the election that his newspaper work would not permit him to serve as judge of election and arrangements were made by these committeemen to have Mr Croft in waiting when the polls should open in order that he might be put into the va cancy caused by Mr Moores declining to serve Mr Croft did appear as prearranged and was made judge of said election to fill said vacancy Mr Moore did not go to said polling place for any purpose until the officers had been installed and the voting had been some time in progress Ai to fir White Mr White attained his majority in Kentucky and upon the ground that his citizenship began here andI that this was his home there was contention that he was entitled to the privilege of that citizenshipand hence was entitled to a vote There was nothingin the common election law that seemed to touch the case buVirwas said there had been special decisions rendered in Kentucky that gave a man so circumstanced full citizenship and suffrage More over it was on record that a certain young Democrat had been allowed to vote here under the same cir- cumstanceS at a previous election It was an extraordinary case of very infrequent occurrence and positive information was lacking We have the permission of that wheel horse of Democracy Mr William McCarley of this place to say that he talked with certain Republicans S before the election about this particular case of Mr Whites of eligibility to vote and expressed to himself then as believing that Mr hi- White was entitled to vote that hefateo talked with Mr White at o a c some time on or near election day and expressed to him the opinion that he was entitled to vote that he has since expressed himself re rently to certain Democrats and is now of the same opinion and that he is quite sure he has seen published during the past few years a by a Kentucky judge in which that judge gave it as his opinion that a young man in Mr Whites case was entitled to vote The story that Mr Atkinson in and Mr Moore while Mr Vhite was presenting his case dropped into the polling place a thorAtkinson and Mr White were there at the same time Mr Atkinson went in and voted and as nc was retiring Mr White filled tin next vacancy nrd wont in to of pnKunt lis case Mr Atkinson is absent anti we cannot ask him what statement if any he made as to Mr White But if he did make any statement in the matter be fore the election officers it was done btforo Mr White entered the polling place This we have upon best authority Mr Moore was not there at the time and did not known when Mr- sWhite went to the polls We quote Mr McCarlcy with his permission in order to show that there were differences of opinion among wellinformed men of both parties upon this unusual case Ax to Mr Logan With apologies to our readers for so doing we quote the Mail In the Southeast Earlington precinct one Logan who drives a delivery wagon for J M Victory Co went to the polls to vote He was not a legal voter and was promptly turned down by the of ficers of election Follpwmg this it jumps into a tirade against an Earlington gen tieman whose character is above reproach in which it indulges inI talk about bulldozing tactics by that gentleman whom it charges with attempting to force the cast ing by Mr Logan of an illegal vote It is unnecessary to say more about this matter than that Mr Logan did go before the judges of election in said precint and that when he had stated his case he was permitted to cast his voter to Mr Nlabe Unfortunately for himselfMr Earnest Nisbet has allowed him self to be influenced to make a statement which contradicts him self His change of front to the sayto TiiE BEE that whTchTwo quoted him in our last issue as having said After giving that statement lo Tn BEE he was taken in tow by Walter Young and others and experienced a change of heart through their labors from which was evolved his contradiction of his statement to THE BEE- t In Conclusion With this issue THE BEE con eludes its part in the discussion of matters that transpired during the election on November 3 1896 There would be no difficulty if we so desired to prolong such dis cussion indefinitely Material for such discussion from a Republi can standpoint is abundant The intelligent people of the County might possibly be able to tolerate suchareveiw of old matters for a little while provided there were engaged- in such discussion with THE BEE a decent honest and reputable paperThe Mail is not decent is not honest is not reputable TilE BEE regrets the necessity of having had to devote to that sheet the space it has already given We have constantly ignored personal insult which has been hurled at the editor of TilE BEE without cessation It has been beneath contempt and unworthy of any notice Even during the campaign when everything was at white heat TILE BEE habitually ignored the endless crsonal abuse concocted by the Mail and only noticed that paper when necessity arose to refute one the many fakes and falsehoods which it promulgated- We deem it proper to make in this issue the statement of facts touching a few points as we have set forth above With expressions of regret to our readers for having been forced from a sense of public duty to devote some space to these matters TilE BEE retires from the discussion aSubpostfactoThe annulment of leases revocation of charters attempted regulation of passenger and freight rates and other interference with the business operations of organized capital is doing much to retard the progress of the South Col Julian Carr of North Carolina commenting on proposed annulments the lease of the N C Railroad says We need not shut our eyes the factcapital is not coming is ore if our affairs arc in such condition and if there is a suspicion f our willingness to stand by our I f J I- J r f l rtT contracts and if capital gives us tho go by we will have nobody to blame but ourselves Col S W Fordyce at the commercial convention held at Little Rock Ark saiduIn 1880 Hot Springs needed money to make improvements and I was urged to procure it I found parties up in Vermont willing to lend 500000 for ten years at 5 per cent without any ironclad foreclosure clauses the bonds Then the legislation met and the mortgage law was in troduced Thereupon I received letter from Vermont cancelling t- e contract and saying they could not let their money go to Arkan sat on account oi the spirit prompting laws inimical to capital Every law against the just rights property and creditors is a menace as well as a drawback in com miinitics where local capital is not forthcoming Earlington a The fame of Earlington has gonel abroad largely through the TilE BEE In an article about liThe Leading Cities in the State and what They Produce the Louisville Commercial has this to ay about Enrlington Earlingtoo located in Hopkins county on the L 8 N Railroad has a popula lion of 3000 It is four miles south of Madisonville the county seat It is the enter of the Western Kentucky coal fieldsI and the mines are largely operated by tho St Bernard Coal Company which has spent large sums of money In improving and building s the town The Louisville A

M Moore The nEE is the official organ of the coal Interests of Western Kentucky The tcwn has four months more free schools than the State pays for and has two fine public libraries Our citys population is a little overstated We have 2100 OI course we cannot take exceptions to the goodwords about TILE BEE The South and the Tariff The New York Press says tiThe worst part of the Wilson schedule was that nobody in America profited by it In 1896 the value of the coal imported was 1243000 and the duties collected 486000 In 1892 the McKinley law produced a revenue from coal of 998200 The change in the tariff from 75 cents per ton to 40 cents not only reduced the income of the government but put the Canadian coal miners to work and shut down American mines and reduced the eaafj tVlrfb15ecators tes tify that under the McKinley law they shipped to the New England States 1250000 tons and to New York 500000 tons When the duty was practically cut in two coal was often brought in for bal reducedIwere forced to lower the price of labor which induced strikes and suffering among miners opera tors and railroad employees Pure Journalism We publish on the first page 01 this issue a resume of the work being done byliThe Committee for the Purification of the Press 1 of the Baltimore Yearly Meeting special For several years TilE BEE has refused upon any terms to accept objectionable adverti s e m c n t s With most newspapers this is re garded simply as a matter of busi ness They consider that running a newspaper is like running a rail road and arc willing to cary any sort of an advertisement if the freight is only paid Not only tnis but TilE BEE has carefully eliminated all purely sen sational details from its news re ports and refuses to flaunt vice in the face of its readers TilE BEE adds its humble sup port to this great movement and contributes its influence to the protection of public morals IK the face of the fact that Bryan was defeatedhow can the

financial laws arc the outgrowth of experience and trial and should not be amended with out investigation and demonstra tion of the wisdom of the proposed changes We must be both sure we are right andIImake haste slowly MORE REVENUE The Government should not be permitted to run behind or increase its debt in times like the present Suitably to provide against this is the mandate of duty the certain and easy remedy for most of our financial difficulties A deficiency is inevitable so long as the expenditures of the Government exceed its receiptsTARIFF TAXATION The best way for the Govern ment to maintain its credit is to pay as it goes not by resorting to 1 K ltr Inn nut ft 1t4I througn an adequate Income secured by a system of taxation external or internal or both EARLY LEGISLATION HOPED FOR It is therefore earnestly hoped and expected that Congress will at the earliest practicable moment en act revenue legislation that shall be fair reasonable conservative and just and which while supply ing sufficient revenue for publicS purposes will still be signally ficial and helpful to every section andevery enterprise of the people RECIPROCITY RECOMMENDED In the revision of the tariff especial attention Should be given to the reenactment andextensIon of the reciprocity principle of the law of 1890 under which so great a stimulus was given to our foreign trade in new and advantageous markets for our surplus agricultural and manufactured products TilE PREVAILING DEPRESSION The depression of the past four years has fallen with especial severity upon the great body of toil ers of the country and upon none more than the holders of small farms The depressed condition of industry on the farm in the mine and in the factory has lessened the ability of the people to meet the demands on them and they rightfully expect that not only a system of revenue shall be established that will secure the larg est income with the least burden but that every means will be taken to decrease rather than increase our public expenditures RETURN TO PROSPERITY Business conditions arc not the most promising It will take time to restore the prosperity of former years If we can not promptly at tarn it we can resolutely turn our faces in that direction and aid its return by friendly legislation LESSONS OF TilE ELECTION One of the lessons taught by the late elections which all can re joice in is that the citizens of the United States arc both lawrespecting and lawabiding people not easily swerved from the path of patriotism and honor This is entire accord with the genius of our institutions and but emphasizes the advantages of in culcating even a greater love for law and order in the future SITTERS There Is a lot of fellows In every single town livIngDy grumbleTheir And kick

the Newt AdminIstrationNotesof s gProbably tory has an Administration been obliged to face at the very begin ning of its assumption of power so many and important questions affecting the foreign relations of the United States as confront President McKinley and Secretary Sherman All of these arc important and while some of them may be for a time kept in the background others and those of the utmost gravity are likely to force them selves upon the attention of thes new Administration in such a per sistent manner that they must be met promptly In the list of open diplomatic issues arc some old veterans questions that were run ning along in diplomatic time killing fashion when Presidents Harrison turned over state to President Cleveland but the Jatter in his time and with the best of intentions and in spite of the most heroic efforts was obliged to add to the list and make new issues of his own that he was un able to bring to a conclusion before he in turn gave way to President McKinleyForemost and of the greatest interest to the people of the United States because of the strife that is being waged under their very eyes is their very eyes is the subject of our relations toward Cub For over two years the insurrection on the ever faithful isle has gone on and from the confusion of reports that reach the Department of State it is not possible to accurately and surely ascertain the exact condi- tIon of this struggle which as President Cleveland has stated in his messages to Congress has in volved in itself interests of enor mous value to citizens of the United States It is understood to be the policy of the new Admin istration to deal with this matter deliberately and not to undertake to part from the policy with which it has so far been treated until our more important internal financial affairs arc adjusted But the subject is of an explosive nature and it is not safe to predict that through some overt and outrageous act of a subordinate among either the Spanish forces or in the insurgent lines something like the Virginius affair for instance the Adminis departAftWlion at short notice to this danger ous subject Other great questions arc the Alaskan boundary question the Behring seal fisheries which arc still threatened with utter ruin by the pirates of British Columbia Numerous other questions of for eign policy which affect the Com merce of the United States call for earnest consideration These and other matters will be dealt with promptly as may be and with wis domThere is a disposition in many quarters of this country to believe that the President of the United States has some magical power and can do instantly what he chooses for good or for ill This wrong conception of presidential power has been greatly fostered by the demagogues who roam the emptyheadsonly execute the laws and recommend new ones In this way lie policyDuti law of the land than a law of na ture That no man can do But singularly enough that is what many of our Presidents arc asked to do Indeed they are asked to do morthicy are advised to break the law of the land in a vain effort to make new laws of nature Of course Maj McKinley will try- no such vain things He ought- not indeed to be pestered with the quacks who will so advise him He should be left alone to restore the confidence of the people in one another and in the resources of the country With that lubricant of confidence the machinery of trade of commerce will be smoothly set Thin Pale ChildrenOne Scotts Emulsion to children is they never object to it The fact is they soon

DOWN IN THE MINES Two years ago the big Jo D Williams took the biggest tow of coal on record from this city to New Orleans It con sisted of fortysix coal boats The river then was about In the same condition It is now and the same towboat proposes to wipe out her own record by leaving here for New Orleans with fiftysix coal boats ten more than she took before when she broko all records The tow covers sixteen acres in the river and comprises 1500000 bushels of coal It would take 3000 cars to hold it and divided into twenty trains it would take tOO locomotives to pull it Courier Journal Secretary Gee C Atkinson is back from his visit in the East and as we predicted several weeks ago he attended the Inaugural Ceremonies and what be can tell you of the sights he saw there would make a

in Indiana last week much damage was done lo mines by being flooded Governor Bradley calls the attention of the legislators who will meet in extra session soon that steps should be taken lo protect the miners of the State against coal being shipped into the State that is mined by convict labor Such a sugges tlon Is a good one and we believe that our legislators If acting in accordance with the wishes of the miners will enact such legislation The people of the State in the past few years have indicated that 4 they want no convict labor in mines and we believe they are against their product t being sold In the State Weigher Phillips at No tx mine says 4 that last week the miners put in good time The miners are now being accosted al most daily by lbs numerous office hunters who are making

relation in lifo whore pledges aro not prominent In tho business world mon take solemn vows and obligations upon themselves In tho political world men in being conducted into public offloo take most solemn oaths that they will faithfully discharge tho duties of their office Tho plodgo forms an important part in thd most sacred of all our social relations that of matrimony This oppositl is also unscrlptnral- Tho most dovontBcrvnut8 of God in tho Bible took solemn vows upon thota solves Josiah was a good king nnda faithful servant of God No ono questions thoso facts Yet ho took n pledge upon himself and had nil Judah do tbo same This plodgo was taken at tho timo of time finding of tho lost book of tho law of Hilkiob tho priest It con sisted in renewing tho covenant which lion originally been made between God and his pooplo at Mount Horeb This pledge had for tho timo at least two Good effects upon the people and thoso illustrate how tho Christian Endeavor pledge strengthens tho Christian lifo 1 Tho Christian Endeavor plodgo strengthens tho Christian lifo by keep- Ing us snore faithfully in tho path of Christian duty This was tho first olTool upon tlio people of Jadah when thoy renewed tim covenant with God They took tho covenant upon them and it kept thorn faithful A pledge helps us to bo faithful to God and to Christian duties It places an additional obliga tion upon us to bo faithful In boing faithless wo not only sin in this way against God but also In tho breaking of tho pledge Human nature is weak Wo need about us every incentive to right living and right doing A solemn plodgo is such nu Incentive No ono can ques tion this fact Tho drunkard who takes tho temperance pledge makes n moro de- l tcrmiuod effort to resist the temptation to drink than if ho had not taken the pledge and in tho vast majority of easer with greater success A pledgo strength ens our purposo to do right and in so doing helps us to do right 2 Tho Christian Endeavor pledge strengthens us in our Christian lifo by restraining us from evil Josiah because of his covenant not only kept faithful to God but also put away evil from tho people Ho did away with all things that woro abominations to God Pledges help us to be faithful in duty and re strain us from evil tho two necessities to a strong Christian life Wo must not only learn to do well but also cease to do evil
