Republicans The Populists oi Louisville have denounced the measure as dangerous in the ex treme and destructive of free gov ernment and called upon the Pop ulist representatives in the General

moneythe Jygical carry lug out of the Chicago ilatform Never before in dIe h ii6iy af this geaState has the majority of the t I Legislature been so regardless of ihe rights of the people and of the rights of property One of the first acts of this Legislature was to practically repeal the mob law passed at the last session thus endorsing the midnight raiders of the tollgates Now in broad day light the railroads are raided and confiscatedand this in Kentucky IT begins to look as if a man of the necessary political stripe who covets any particular piece of property in the Commonwealth might acquire such property with the least labor through courteous action ot the present Legislature which is developing such prone ness to do with neatness and dis patch anything for partisan profit The

ellico in this State The epidemic ap pears to have originated in Mobile last summer and to have been gradually extending northward since It is chiefly prevalent amongst the negro population and manifests an unusual tendency everywhere to break over official control and assume an epidemic formThis Board therefore feels that it is its duty to warn the people that prompt action may prevent its further spread in this State Fortunately prevention is as certain and safe as it is cheap and easy Vaccinnation and revac cinnation properly done with reliable virus is a certain preventive and is entirely Iree from danger This is the conclusion of the health officers of the world alter years of patient investigations and is now an accepted truth in preventive medicineNotwithstanding these facts one Kentuckyhavethis protection Our people should not wait for orders from boards of health in the presence of an epI- demic to force them to an evident duty Every citizen should see to it that not only himself but everyone for whom he is re sponsible is vaccinated at once No child should be admitted to any public or private school who has not been vaccinated and all factories railroads and mines should make the same requirement This is especially importantant in view of the threatened danger The operation should be done by a competent physician under proper aseptic precautions and he should see the person vaccinated from time to time so the result may be certain Imperfect vac cination gives a false and often fatal sense of security Reliable virus can be obtained from the National Vaccine Farm Washington D C or their agents the Henry Pharmacal Company Louis ville Ky In addition it is urgently re quested that all boards of health perfect their organization at once if they have not done so and take every precaution to prevent the entrance of the disease into their jurisdictions or failing in this be strictlyisolatingnating and revaccinating every person exposed to it All

PROSPERITY ADVANCING Splendid Revival of Business Ex hibited by Commercial Statistics New York Commercial Advertiser Enemies of sound money and Protection would no doubt like to believe that events were fulfilling their predictions of woe and dis aster but evidence of increasing activity in industry and trade is too palpable to be talked down or de nied For 1897 bank clearings show a gain of 6000000000 or about 12 per cent over 1896 with the volume of clearings at present advancing at still greater rate Two hundred railroads representing 150000 miles of track report for 1897 increased earnings ot nearly 60000000 over 1899 and in the same period only eighteen roads representing 1550 miles of track went into the hands of receivers against thirty four roads repre senting 5500 miles of track for the preceding year There were not 2000 less commercial failures m 1897 than 1896 but the aggregate liabilities were 90000 000 less The total output of pig iron last year although the largest on record for this country promises to be exceeded during the current year while the demand both at home and abroad for steel rails locomotives and other finished products is steadily widening The one gloomy feature of the situation is the cotton manufacturing indus try but depression in that indus try is confined principally to New England In the South all cotton mills are running full time and some of them overtime There is nothing fictitious about these proofs of reviving business They are evidence that money is again flowing into productive en terprises that capital and credit under

legislation It is an organization of anarchyCopious journalshavetries in the Southern States and of fresh energies employed to util ize the great resources of the country on the sunny side of the Ohio river Kentucky is in the line of progress but it is working against heavy odds A hundred and thirtyeight obstructionists in the pay of the public and em ployed to do the public good have turned time and energy toward private or political schemes and intrigues The men who are tak KentuckyLegislature to attack everything that is showing or promising financial success Not a bill looking to public concern has yet received attention by them Head and front of the incendiary propositions now occupying the time and attention of the Legisla ture is Senator Goebels force election bill for Kentucky It means to create a law that will perpetuate the power of the men who arc now pushing cummunistic measures into the statute books of the State The bill is an auda cious plan to forever hold control wayforday and a count that will suit the designs of the sandbaggers in authority It means that anelcc tion will be no election in fact and that the machine set up by the State Legislature will conduct things with a high hand and with wide sweeping methods of corrup tion It will completely Mexican ize our elections and make the ballot box a mockery The McChord Bill to regulate railroads in Kentucky is a deadly weapon to be put in the hands of official highwaymen It proposes that a commission consisting of three men will have absolute con trol of the business of all the rail roads in the State and these three commissioners who may be obedi ent to political pulls will be men who know the least about railroad business the true relations between these corporations and the public and who will have the power to make the most widesweeping and dangerous orders This powerintoleaves no recourse for those who may be greatly wronged by it It will ruin railroad that the pro posed Qutocratlc commission may care to attack and it will leave the public at the mercy of the same authority In line with the McChord bill and quite as confiscatory is Senator Goebels fellowservants bill It proposes to make railroad corpor ations responsible for the wrongful act of a person who is working in the same line as the man who is injured or killed If this law which is made only to apply to railroads were applied to all other corporations there would be in stant opposition all over the State Heretofore the law only held em ployers responsible for those things which they were able to foresee and prevent but never have they been held responsible for the un forsecn and unforseeable acts of men who are working together This measure if it becomes a law will make every railroad company the absolute insurer of the lives and limbs of those whom they em ployComingalozigin the same class is a measure wide and sweeping in its assault on the banking institu tions of the State The bill pro vides that the charters of all State banks granted since February 14 1856 which do not accept the con stitution before July i next shall stand repealed It takes no notice of a test case now pending in

apostles arc theso Tho first Simon who Is called Peter and Andrew his brother Jesus Himself went about all tho cities and village teaching In their synagogues and preaching tho gospel of tho kingdom and healing every sickness and every dis ease among tho people but tho multitudes who were as sheep without n shepherd touched Ills heart and Ho told Ills disci pies to pray tho Lord of tho harvest that Ho would send forth laborers Into Ills harvest chapter lx 8538 When wo pray this prayer from tho heart It seems to Impy n readiness on our part to go our selves If Ho opens tho way for It Is Just following this command so to pray that wo have tho record of Ills choosing and sending forth these twelve In Luko vi 12 wo read that just before Ho chose tho twelve Ho went out Into n mountain to pray and continued nil night in prayer to God In Mark 111 14 wo read that Ho ordained them that they should bo with Him and that Ho might send thorn forth to preach and to heal tho sick The lost night before ills crucifixion Ho told them that Ho had chosen and ordained them that they should go and bring forth fruit and that their fruit should abide 6 6IITheso twelve Jesus sent forth and commanded them saying Gonot into tho way of tho gentiles and into any city of tho Samaritans enter ye not but go rather to tho lost sheep of the house of Israel This restricted commission will not bo understood unless ono is familiar with Gods plan of blessing for all nations which is to bless Israel first and then all nations through Israel This is fully ro vcalcd in tho prophets and Ho will not depart from It for tho gifts and calling of God are without repentance Rom xl SO Tako as sample passages PB lull Isa xxvll 0 Ix 13 21 Jcr 1111718 Zcch xlv 10 17 There ore two other prayers which wo would do well to pray along with Math Ix 88 Ono Is In Isa lxII 0 7 and tho other In Rev xxll 20 To pray these three prayers from tho heart dally will bring one very near to tho heart of Christ Ills primary mission was to Israel Math xv SI hence this restricted commission at this tlmo to tho twelve but bo Ing rejected and crucified by Israel lIe aft er Ills resurrection gave tho worldwide commission as in Math xxvill 10 7IIAnd aa we go preach saying Tho kingdom of heaven is at hand Thus preached tho Baptist and Tesus Himself and tho 13 and tho 70 for in tho person of tho king tho kingdom was verily Among them Luke xvll 21 margin and had they been content to receive crucified and risen Messiah tho kingdom would doubtless have been set up after Ills resurrection but seeing their decided rejection of Him Ho before Ills death told them in a parable that tho kingdom was post poned till Ills return from tho far country Luko xlx 1110 6 Heal tho sick cleanse tho lepers raise tho dead CASt out devils freely

para phrased it Make thou His service thy do light Hell make thy wants Ills care 10lIlor scrip for your journey neither two coats neither shoes nor yet staves for the workman is worthy of his meat If we are tho Lords messengers on tho Lords business wo have no occasion to bo anxious about food or raiment or money but disentangled and free and without fear verses 20 28 81 follow where Ho leadcth in quietness and in confidence for tho silver and tho gold and tho cattle upon a thousand hills are Ills 11II And into whatsoever city or town yo shall enter inquire who in it is worthy and there abide till yo go thence Tho prophets were plainly taught that not eli would receive their message but that somo would hato them for it Jcr I 17 10Ezek- Ii 0 7 ill 7 In tho second section ot our present chapter and in John xv 18 20 wo are taught to expect tho same thing but wo are also taught that some will wel como Him and also us for His sake Ho will direct our steps in this matter also and if seine day Ho wants us to havo fel lowship with Him in being refused ills grace will bq sufficient 12 13II And when yo como into an house salute it end if the house be worthy let your peace como upon it but if It bo not worthy let your pcaco return to you Even Israel was not to lIght against a city until that city had rejected their offers of peace which they were to proclaim to it Dent xx 1012 Every believer is to count himself n messenger of tho Prince of Peace and like tho angels at Ills birth wo are to proclaim peace in Ills name Luko II 14 Preaching peaco by Jesus Christ Is our work Acts x 80 for Ho has made pence by tho blood of His cross CoL I 20 Blessed are tho peacemakers How beautiful are tho feet of such But there are many who know not these things Math v 0 Isa ill 7 llx 8

glorified as Ho always will bo if the messenger Is faithful whether men will hear or forbear Tho faithful messenger is unto God a sweet savor of Christ whether men believe or not II Cor II 15 10 Tho messenger is responsible for the faithful delivery of the message but tho ono who sends him is tho ono who will at tend to tho way tho message Is treated Verso 40 says that as they treat tho Lords messenger so they treat tho Lord Himself See also LuUo x 10 15 Verily I say unto you It shall be more tolerable for tho land of Sodom anti Gomorrah In tho day of judgment than for that city By

Afiera Few Days Stay in tie Land of Frre Slljernpd null Fights Washington D C Feb 14 Some of Mr Bryans Democratic friends and associates who have had practical business experience in Mexico do not agree with the glowing picture which he brought back from that country nor do they agree with his theory that time free coinage of silver is responsi ble for whatever of apparent or real prosperity exists there Ex Congressman McShane who form erly represented the Omaha Nebraska district in Congress but who now has large mining interests in Mexico and spencJs much of his time there says that his friend Mr Bryan is entirely mistaken in the conclusion at which ho arrives Considering the fact that Mr Mc Shane is a Democrat a fellow Nebraskan with Mr Bryan and has had practical business experi ence in Mexico for about as many years as Mr Bryan spent days in his recent trip his conclusions concerning matters 50 elab orately discussed by Mr Bryan on his return from the laud of the 45cent dollar are interest ing Mr McShane has been spending a few days here renewing his acquaintance with members of Congress and in a conversation regarding Mr Bryans recent utter ances regarding Mexican prosperi ty he said It is of this sort The govern ment is largely back of it and to the paternal fostering of the Diaz administration it is majpjy due The government subsidizes brewer ies railroads industrial plants and aids in every way to build up the material resources of the country Money is used with a liberal hand and as a consequence there is much activity and great apparent prosperity The fact that Mexico is on a silver basis does not figure it cant help being on that kind of a basis but I should hate to see the United States resprt to any such policy Ten years ot experience in that country has forever set me against the adoption of a monetary system which is not only in disrepute among the leading nations of the world but which is about to be discarded by countries like Japan Brazil and some of the smaller Spanish American governments that were formerly on a silver basis The masses in Mexico are in a worse condition than L trust will ever befall our laboring popu lation This I can explain by referring to matters that have pome under my personal observation When the Sherman purchasing act was in force some seven years ago silver was worth in Mexico 100 cents in Mexican money The dollars of the two countries were on a parity All this time we cm ployed about 300 men in our mines their pay ranging from ti to t9oper day It took approximately 10000 a month to meet the pay roll The money to cancel this expense was shipped from Omaha and it was exchanged for 100000 of Mexican coin We operated XJ general merchandise stores along with our mining concern and at the time I speak of sold to our Mexican employes bacon for twenty cents a pound todayWec them exactly the same scale of wages that they obtained prior to the slump in silver caused by the repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act Our payroll still aggregates foopo a month To meet thip we have shipped us a like sum of the United States money and here is wImtre time differenpe comes in Instead of exchanging that amount at our bank for its nominal equivalent we get for it not IOOOO but 33000 of Mexi can money AVe have here made a clear gain of 12000 Our em centslworthused to get 100 cents and do yet as far as the name goes but in re ality the receive less than half of what should be theirs seeing that the Mexican coin in which they are paid has shrunk to less than hall of its former value Jflut there js more still When the Mexican miner ges to bqy ba con he finds tjjat in tpndering pay mont ho cannot buy it with e preciated money for ao cents a pound the price now is 45 cents It would still be so if he could ten der a dollar as good as that given him for his labor at the time of the repeal of the Sherman law The 12000 I spoke of simply comes ojjt of the labor qf the country and tloltisstretching a point to call the pie prosperous If the fair and right thing were done by these hardworking miners their wages would be doubled The man that npw gets Ss a day is justly
