like a sage in a recent editorialas follows The candidacy of Judge Pratt has caui a commotion In various quarters in I Slate It bids fair to sweep the field 1 the republican ranks and to put the demo

Harmony Speaking of Judge Clifton J Pratts candidacy for the Repub of 6sKentucky a t L porary the Elkton Progress speaks the truth exactly when it says The Republicans of Kentucky seem to be focalizing on Judge C J Pratt of Hopkins County tor Governor The Republican are swinging the olive branch over the beads of the party ana trying to reconcile the opposing factions Ttiat is exactly the point that in duced Judge Pratt to announce and upon which hinges the whole que s on of his candidacy Judge Pratt preeminently the man up whom all Republicans can uni and give enthusiastic support Since Ceew hithpast has caused dissention and lack of interest No candidate at whose door the charge of factional feeling in past party rows could be In ito could hope for a fighting chance win at the polls or for anything like full and hearty vote of the Re ublicans and a large vote outside is party Becauso of Judge Prat l S eedom from all such entangling alliances lie will be able to these things if he attains the nomi n TIationy probable The Judge is receiving most favorable mention by the press of the State is strongly endorsed by many leading and repre sentative Republicans and is very favorably mentioned at Washings ton where the leaders recognize that the hope of Kentucky Repu licans is in the candidacy of a representative able man who is free of anything like identification with the party factions which have be ens so disastrous in the past but may strongdIf Judge Pratt is nominated het will make it hot for the candidate ho stands behind the Goeh election machines Kentucky

low the average for that date shows marked improvement The teasonableof April produced rapid growth b futthe plant is not starting well and that it will not be sufficient to cover the ground The western sectionshows the lowest average condition Many farmers in their eagerness sowed oates while ground was too wet for cultivation resulting in poor germination and indifferent growth Where the ground was in good condition the crop sown is coming nicely Corn planting has made consid erable progress and the ear planted came up quickly and is rowing nicely No complaint ISin made of injury from

convention to select delegates topi the state convention which is not allothey have given very short noti cctir elof the county meeting It is yetcr 70 days before the date set for holding the state conventio and there would seem to be no legiti I mate occasion for haste in the se lection of delegates to that body The matter is of some import ance because of the conditions under which it is assumed from i 0go cent developments the state con ventions is to be held Com pariI son of notes by republicans from sections of the state who attended he meeting of the republican state c peentralew days ago amounted to a practi cal establishment of the fact thanthere was a tacit agreement every where that the results of the ap proaching state convention should be in good faith accepted by all soalementsflees without Inreference thItthat given a state convention free to act upon its best judgment as to platform and candidates there is to be no question of its wisdom Iyby the republican voters of the rnstateand do his utmost for the cit cpe hon of the whole ticket But there is still a preliminary to this desirable condition of at fairs affecting the coming cama paign which must be faithfully ob servedand it involves perfect fairness atercry step of the pro ceedings precedent to the state convention This 111 a year when inpersonalto party advantage at every point in and when there will be no patience whatever with the nasty sort ot politics which involves snap judgment in the holding of preIII cinct caucuses or county conven tions or at any other stages what ever of the business of selecting delegates to the state convention Ween this body meets on July 12 it must be representative of the- o real republicans of Kentucky in the fullest sense of the word Its membership must comprise dele gates who arc the free choice of the republicans of the state There may be excellent reason for holding the Daviess county convention 70 days in advance of the date set for holding the state convention and for giving only a weeks notice of it in the busiest season of the year but it must be admitted that they do not appear on the surface Perhaps the Da viess county Republican committee would not object to enlightening their fellow republicans through ut the state concerning these more or less important points The Georgia Lynchlngs More than two thousand people participated in the killing of a negro ravisher near Newnan Ga April 23 The man was burned to eath and his remains were then acked to pieces The next day two alleged accomplices were though the white em loyer of

Kinds From Bradstreet Though constituting the most profitable feature of the farming industry of recent years the ad vance in the price of cereals from the low point reached in tho years 1894 to 896 inclusive has not beenthe only source of agricultural prosperity This is illustrated by the figures of farm values of cattle U sheep horses and hogs compiled by Statistician Hyde of the Agricultural Department The figures are to be understood as dating re spectively on January i I8g8nnd illustrate the profitableness of th returns received in what is regarded as a side issue of the agricultural interest generally Briefly stated the rjjiiait point to an aggregate gain in the total valLO of the coun trys live stock this year over last of 108355482 or 5 74 per cent the aggregate of all live slock val ues on January i this year being 907010407 This too has oc curred in spite of decreases in the k aggregate value of mules and hogs due however entirely to decreases in the number of animals and no to decreases in value per head be cause every class of live stock without an exception shows a gain in average price The heaviest relative gain is natur ally shown in the case of sheep which show the heaviest increase in value per head In this case there is an increase in aggregate value of 1915 percent comparing with gains of 907 in milch cows 684 in horses and 419 per cent in cattle other than milch cows This latter increase in aggregate value is particularly notable in view of the fact that there was a falling off in number of 434 percent so it will be seen the in price 895 per cent hat been sufI ficient to more than make up for the numerical decrease Beef cat tle are the most valuable of the countrys live stocks 27994225 ofI them being valued at 637931135 horses coming next with a value of 511074813 and milch cows third with 474233925 In proportion to number held sheep are relatively least valuable with an aggregate of 107697520 There are fewer horses mules beef cattle and hogs than a year ago but horses are 314 per head higher milch cows 22i per head dearer mules 108 higher and even hcjgs are slightly higher than a year ago The small advance in value of sheep 29 centsI per head is in consequence small value of the animal a notable feature If the statistics point to anything it is to the inapplicability of the designation humble as ap plied to the mule In fact that animal is proved to be a veritable aristocrat among farm animals with a value per head of 4496 against 3740 per head for the horse 2961 for the milch cow 2279 for other cattle 4 50 for the hog andI 275 for the sheep It will be seen from the foregoing that while the retrograde movement in some ce reals has made that branch of the farming interest less profitable the contrary is the case with the live stock interest which still occupies an enviable position among the countrys great industries POLITICAL POINTS R W Willingham has been nominated by the Democrats of Webster county to be their

problem of the political future of the country The normal in crease in the population cannot supply the islands need of men for many many years Immigrants such as can endure the climate and can work

for when they said Lord behold hero are two swords and Ho said It Is enough Ho certainly did not mean tho 12 to ham each a sword Although there were but two Simon Peter carried ouo of them And now see

this passage Paul points out to the Jews tho fact that they need not hopo to escape Gods judgment simply because they aro Jews In judgment bo declares that God is no respecter of per Sons but renders to every man ac cording to his deeds to them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honor and immortality eternal life but unto tbem that are contentious and do not obey the truth but obey unrighteousness indignation and wrath tribulation and anguish upon every soul of man that doeth evil of the Jew first and also of the gentile There are many discouragements to patient continuanco in well doing Difficulties are constantly putting them selves in our way In the first enthusi asm of our faith it is easy to meet anti overcome them but as our religion becomes moro of an accustomed thing with us it is not so easy to do so Thoso for whom we labor ore often ungrateful and forgetting for a time that we are laboring primarily for Him who died for us wo become faint hearted and wearied Results are often not as apparent as wo think they should be The master builder is encouraged by seeing his building constantly growing the artist joys to see his picture developing before him but be who labors in spir itual spheres very often has not tho en couragement apparent results and this is discouraging Theso and other things aro thorns in tho flesh of con tinuance in well doing and specially so in patient continuance But thcro aro also encouragements to even patient continuance in well do- Ing Tho greatest of these is time assur ance of the reward for our patient con tinuance Eternal Ufo Paul hero declares to bo tho reward and since it is a gift of God it is positively assured to us In duo season wo shall reap if we faint not Due season is Gods season and wo may safely leave the time with God knowing for a certainty that in His time and in His way tbo roward is suro to como This fact should be a great inspira tion to patient continuance in well do- Ing All depends upon it The race is never won until the goal Is reached To begin well to run well for a time and then to drop out means to fail Faithful to death should be our watchword for it is nnto those who are faithful unto death that a crown of Ufo is promised That crown is also at death Here tho cross yonder tho crown hero tho church militant yon der the church triumphant Bo thou faithful unto death Bible Readings EccL ix 10 lea xl 2881 Math xxv 3140 John ix 4 xv 10 Rom v 15 xii 111 1 Cor x 81 xv 58 GaLiii 110 CoL ili 17 II These ill 13 Heb vi 1015 Rev iI 10- Salvation Only Through Christ Is faith in this truth outgrown t Some say so lInt tho proofs point to tho contrary When forced to a frank declaration those who pin their faith on worthy attainments in character und service such as they claim wo can make for ourselves have to acknowledge that tho best men have their faults No ono can bo trusted absolutely and always for ho sometimes lacks wisdom It never virtue Wo do not and cannot often attain to any exalted standard of excellence nnd never reach perfection If then tho best men cannot save others or even themselves who cant Nobody excepting Jesus Christ anti Ho can and does Ho claimed this when Ho was on earth anti Ho began to make good tho claim then anti has been proving it ever since It is as truly a matter of fact of ordinary human ex perience thnt there salvation in Jesus Christ und that nobody knows of any other opportunity of being saved than through Him as the fact of birth or growth or death It lies been regarded and discussed altogether too much as a matter of philosophy and theology It is much more a matter of solid prac tical everyday fact Congregation Alld Official Call for Republican State Covention At a meeting of the

this pay streak such claims had to be abandonedFire means of thawing spots touched by the suns rays had not been tried without success at Cassiar bar The idea was regarded as only a bos wild notion though now there are claimants for the credit of the first use of the method that was to revolutiouize mining in the Yukon- A certain miner on Forty Mile Fred Hutchinson by name was working a bar where the pay ex tended under the water so that he had to abandon it Being loath to do so however and besides being of a practical turn like all the old timers he conceived the following plan After the stream had begun to freeze Hutchinson began to chop the ice above that part of the bar he wished to work being careful not to break through As the ice froze downward he continued to pick Wherever the pick acci dentally broke through he left it and used another pick till the first one was frozen in solid When he reached the gravel he had a perfect cofferdam of ice around him Then he built a fire on the groundand thawed the gravel Hutchinson did not put his discovery to much practical use The next winter however his neighbors took it up and from that time a few miners began to work in winter Even these were regarded as fools by the rest who preferred the dull idleness of the cabins Some of the miners used to saylilts getting to be as bad in here as it was outside work winter and
