ASSESSMENTS Of Candidates of 25 PerCent Will Meet Again March 3 TALK OP PUTTING OFF VOT1 Rumorsthat a change waa to bo made from the primary to the con ventlon plan of nominating candidates for State offices were effectu ally set at rest atthe meeting of the Democratic State Executive Commit tee at the Louisville Hotel in Louisville Friday By a vote of 11 to 1 that body reaffirmed its action of l December 22 last In calling a pri mary and Its subsequent action ol February 4 In including the senator- Ial race in the primary It also vot ed unanimously to raise the assess ment for all offices 25 per cent over the abount fixed at the meeting two weeks before An adojurnment was taken until fPFTJfaay March 3 by which time the icpmmlttde will endeavor to have the call for the primary In legal form and decide on the date for the clos ing of entries It was for these pur poses the meeting was held Friday but It was found that the subcom mittee had not prepared the call In proper legal form A G Rhea sec retary of the subcommittee reported that Wlllam A Young the chair man and M J Meagher the third member had both been absent on account of Illness for the past two weeks and that he had not been able to prepare the call himself In j view of this statement It was de clded to postpone the meeting two weeks and to give the subcommittee additional help In framing tub dill Henry R Prewitt chairman of the Executive Committee and WP Mc Donough the Fifth district member both of whom are lawyers were named to prepare the call ahd have It ready for adtptlon at the end of that period The only other buslnesstransact ed by the committee Friday was to fix the assessment for the senatorial race at 3500 and to lower the as sessment In the Governors race from 4000 to 3000 Later these with all other assessments were raised 25 percent Much disappointment was express1 ed at the close of the meeting by as pirants for various nominations over the fact that the committee did not I fix the date for the closing of entries It was this feature that brought practically every aspirant for nom ination to Louisville and when It was announced that the executive body had been unable to draft a suit able call following a session of more than two hours several of the aspirants stated they would return to their homes and make no further canvass until the question had been definitely settled Although no def inite confirmation could be had It was reported that the question of changing the date of the primary from May 27 to some date in June or July wns brought up In the com mittee and that as It was not deft nitely acted upon It likely will be iMecussed again at the meeting March 3 It was said to be the opin ion of some of the members of the jcommltteo that in view of the fact tat the committee will not fix the time of closing the entries for nn oier two we ksthe period for the nsplrarts for nominations to make n thorough canvass of the State will be entirely too short For that reason it was said It was urged that the We of tho primary be changed to some time the latter part of June or the early part of July It was stated pftor the meeting that several of tho p plrants for nominations were In favor of changing the date of the primary from May 27 tal date u month or six weeks later None of those seen however would contra the renort each of them paying that the only tblnr he desired to know was ret when the primary would be JJheld but when the entries would XclbseUj VTtie flghtlo have the primary c pft off and n convention called all1 l stead to name the candidates started Immediately after the com mitten went into session by Sam T Spalding from the Fourth district It proved to be a forlorn hope however as it was Impossible to get a second to the motion After this effort a motion to realm the actlor of the committee at the two previous meetings was made and previous seconded and carried by a vote ol eleven to one Committeeman Spald ing voted against the motion The motion to postpone action on the call for the primary for two weeka Vas vigorously opposed by Commttteeman Goodson of the Second district and Spalding of the Fourth both of whom contended that it was up to the committee to enlighten the aspirants for nomina tions as well as the Democratic voters as to Just when the entries to the primary would close It was claim ed by Mr Spalding that much time had been wasted by the committee in deciding a question which was of the utmost Importance to the people of the State and that the longer the matter was delayed by the commit tee the greater amount of harm It would do to the party With ten members of the committee how ever In favor of the adjournment for two weeks and the appointment of the two legal members to assist the subcommittee In preparing its report the motion carried with only two dissenting votes 000000000000000O FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH 0 OOOOOOOOOOOOOO Bible School every Sunday at 230 and communion service at 330 p m Prayer

Is the Price of Good Government The Duty of Every Citizen INDIVIDUAL RKSIONSIIJILITY Second of a series of articles on governmental policies written ex pressly for The Herald While our Constitutional Convex tlon was assembled France and Eng land were furnishing striking ex ampes of the evils of extremes ol centralization and decentralization England was sacrificing Personal Liberty upon the altar of Peace and Order thus warning the advocates of Libertyamong the ablest of whom were Jefferson and Henry of the dangers of centralized federal pow er while upon the other hand France was Immolating Peace and Order upon the bloody altar of Personal I Liberty inspiring Hamilton with mistrust of the peoples ability to govern themselves These founders weighted down with the solemn responsibilities of their undertaking well know that Egypt Babylon Persia Greece and Rome had tried every system human Ingenuity could devise front farm ing out the public omces to the highest bidder to the foulest despotisms from Aristocracies and Republics to anarchy and chaos They themselves had tried a Confederacy and Roger Williams a Pure Democracy From these rich stores so replete of expe rience and example they built up a system that stand as the wonder and admiration of mankind founded upon the eternal principles of free conscience equal opportunity re ward of effort and the human rights of property the basic rock upon which the magnificent superstructure securely rests Shall we then abandon or even ex periment with this priceless legacy wrought with Heavens favor from the composite wisdom and experience of the world and chastened by tho reddest blood of every nation in every age known In our annals It seems to be the fate of nations that their constitutional liberties shall be baptised in bloodl Ljnddrftsbeheticeht provisions all our rights are secure and all our talentsset free Predatory wealth and corporate greed may be re strained grafting malfeasance and extravagance suppressed But this can only bo done by at least a working majority of united good and true citizens with the single minded purpose of greatest good to the greatest number who have no axes to grind no favors to ask but the untrammeled right and liberty to work out singlehanded their own destinies must glvo a share of their time and talent to tho common wealth that faithful and efficient ser vants may represent us In places of trust that we may fully know the public needs and that we may en force these Just demands with a strong welldefined cleancut public sentiment which the veriest doma gogue or scoundrel dares not vio late With public sentiment says Lincoln nothing can fall without It nothing can succeed and ho who moulds public sentiment goes deeper than he who enacts statutes or pro nounces decisions A little concert of action and pur pose of a little coterie of resolute men armed with nn Intelligent bnl lot and supported by public opinion can clean out from public office more

Ideal citizenship It cant be better It will never be worse The most a government can do Is to protect our lives liberties pur suits and property while we Inde pendently selfreliantly work out our own

what was the paramount Issue of human life he replied In dividual responsibility What vol umes cast Into one short sentence How It glows with vital force Ful ly comprehended and carried out It would solve all our intricate social problems It would demonstrate the economic truth that there Is no real conflict between Capital and Labor that being mutually dependent they are naturally tho best of friends that It fs remorseless human greed not capital or labor that breeds the apparent antagonism It would warn human greed that the sacred rights of labor aro infinitely above constitutional or statutory law be cause they are Inherent and univer salIt would show the moneyed Inter ests that there can be no real pros perity without the prosperity of la bor Doom labor and you boom the earth and he who would starve the goose that lays the golden egg Is just n plain common ovorydny fool It would teach us what the Greeks knewthat the welfare of every child in tho commonwealth however poor or degraded Is a matted of great moment to every citi zen because an Injury to ono Is a like Injury to all and conversely the goqd of one is the good of all It would Impress upon labor that the rights of

Ohio county boys on the Confederate side of the Civil War After the battle of Murfreesboro fought In the winter of 1862 the Army of Tennessee retired to Tut lahpraa where they went Into camp KylRegimentI remained till spring Here we eni Jpyed camp life flue attending par ties and concerts When spring opened our regiment with the balance of the brigade was ordered out the Murfreesb9ro Pike to Beech Grove I half way between Manchester and Murfreesboro soon followed by Gen Hardlns corps remaining there about a month Then it was rumored that Gen Grant had sur rounded VIcksburg and our division was ordered to Mississippi to re4 Inforce Gen Jackson who was rais- Ing an army at Jackson to extricate I Gen Pemberton whom Grant had surrounded In VIcksburg- So one beautiful evening in May we were marched to Wartrace a station on the railroad Gen Breck helwasto Mississippi but the Commanding KenItuckysome day by remaining In Tennes see to march back to their native State it would be left to us wheth er we go with our General or not It was left to a vote of the brigade and they voted unanimously to share the fate of our General We knew there was nothing but privations and hardships for us so once more we started back to the pine woods of Mississippi and with some of the boys it was the last time they ever saw their home That evening we took the train it being a long one and only one brake on It Passing over the Cum berland Mountains and going down grade the brake broke causing a wreck that wounded several of our company Andy Kirtley Klrg Reid and Jim Walthall were so badly wounded that they were left at At lanta In a hospital Jim Walthall never returnedhavlng died from the effects of his wounds After being t on the train four days and nights we llanded lii

Note 4 PEOPLE WILL XOT BE MOCKED Written for Mr BryantaCom Ho moner by Champ Clark Towards the close of his heroic career it was une of the proud boasts of Saint Paul that he had kept the faith a boast amply jus tilled by the facts Wo Democrats should follow the example and emu late the fidelity of the great apostle so far as In us lies Last November we captured opo of the three cita dels of Republicanism the House of Representatives tVvo remain In their possession the White House and the Senate The only way we can reasonably hope to make a clean sweep In 1912 is to keep faith with the people absolutely by religiously fulfilling every promise that we made In order to win the House This should be done as a matter of princi ple simply because It is right Even If we were not willing to do so as a matter of principle then when we remember what happened to the Re publicans last autumn because they failed to keep faith with the people we should fulfill our promise as a matter if expediency The masses of the people of all parties are horest in their political opinions and deserve to be treated honestly fairly and candidly They are entitled to that square deal of which we hear fo much and see so little They will not be mocked The woeful plight of the Republicans Is directly traceable to their broken promises and should be a sufficient warning and object lesson to us The sin of the Republican party In that regard was as scarlet and Its pun ishment was swift severe and deserved To obtain property under falfo pretenses Is a penitentiary of pflnsIThe law not permitting the imprisonment of the Republicans for carrying the election of 1908 bv false pretenses the neoplo gave them a thorough drubbing at the polls In 1910We have a golden opportunity rniipied with grave responsibilities To us success not only in 1912bnt for years to come Is as easy as fall ing off a log and a slippery log at that All that we have to do is to fulfill our nromlpes falling or npC letting todo that It In hack td the wilderness for us Most assuredly we have had our quantum sufflclt more than our quantum inerult of wandering In the wilderness Men should pav what they mean l and mnnn what they say Normal minds dhcaent from the Immoral dictum hnt pvorthlng Is fair in war love and politics The promises most freatienlly mee In the lastI campaign were Fl pt f1 revise the tariff

nppronrfntlonn to the reeds of the Government cconb mlrallv administered There nre other promises lOt which T may refer In p future nrtlclp hilt the four which I have mentioned were I think most frenuently mAIn and were uppermost In the public mind Of the four the revision of the tariff was by long odds the most Important I Am happy to av that Democrats Are already carrying out their ante election promises We have appoint ed a Committee on Committees fcheerfully assisted In that reorm though it will somewhat curtail the power of the Speaker The House should be a selfgoverning body and not an autocracy The establishment of a Committee on Committees together with other reforms In the rules wrought In this Congress by the coalition of Democrats and in surgent Republicans has overthrown Cannonlsm and will I believe be of great benefit In securing good leg I islationAt caucus on January 19wo elected the chairman and the Demo cratlc members of the Committee on Ways and Means who are also to constitute the Committee on Committee We did the unprecedented thing bf calling a caucus of the Democrats oi i1oSIt1lIccond Con gees six weeks before the life of that Congress begins for the purpose of expediting tariff reform promptly thoroughly and intelli gently and thereby hastening tho redemption of our promises All sorts of lurid prophecies had been rindulged in by hostile papers and hostile men about how we would go to pieces at that caucus As a matter of fact it was one of the most harmonious caucuses over hold In Washington a sort of Democratic lovefeast where speech was abso speelbbutI I puzI ocrats So It Is clear that we are j keeping the faith as to reforming both the tariff and the rules I Over in the Senate the Democrats aided by a handful of insurgent Republicans are keeping the faith by an honest and earnest endeavor to submit a constitutional amendment providing for the election of United States Senators by popular vote Of course the House will pass it with a whoop as it has done in five Con gresses There never has been a sound or sensible argument advanc ed against that proposition The closer every political function Is brought to the great body of the peo ple the better for all concerned The people can be trusted There is some thing wrong with the man afraid to trust them Such a man is a very unreliable guide counselor and friend Should the standpatters de feat this resolution Democratic leg islatures will do the next best thing by adopting the Oregon plan until ploction by popular vote can be legalized by Congress which Is cer lain

Kentucky to Fight Disease THEY HOPE TO ENLIST 250000 Church Members in the Con certed Effort Against- Consumption CONCENTRATION OK THOUGHT April 30th has been set aside this year as Tuberculosis Day and will be observed by 200000 churches In the country In a manner similar to that of Tuberculosis Sunday In 1910 when over 40000 sermons were preached on the prevention of consumption The Kentucky Asso ciation for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis stales that it will make a special effort to enlist every one of over 1200 ministers In Ken tucky to give their cooperation in bringing this vitally Important sub ject before the members of their re spective churches It Is estimated that In this way over 250000 per sons In Kentucky will be enlisted In this movement- In one respect Tuberculosis Day of this year will differ from Tuberculosis Sunday of 1910 In stead of requesting the churches to give to the Tuberculosis cause a special Sunday service the State Afsocltlon is this year going to ask that meetings at which Tuberculo sis and Its prevention be discussed be held on Sunday April 30 or on any day near that date either In the week preceded or the week following The object Is to get as many people In Kentucky as possible to think about this great problem at the same time It Is conservatively estimated that there are In Kentucky today at least 20000 persons suffering from this disease In some form or other The State Association Is planning to distribute educational leaflets in connection with this day and It Is earnestly desired that the public will take an active part In stamping out this preventable disease which sends over 6500 of our citizens to an ear ly grave every year and causes an economic loss to our State of over 13000000 annually Wife Got

would establish postal sav- Ings banks tomorrow in 500 addi tional cities and towns of the Unit ed States This statement was made tonight by Postmaster Gen eral Hitchcock in view of the re ports thus far received concerning the first months operation of the postal savings system The reports are most gratifying to Mr Hitch cock and to the other officers of tho postal savings service They are re garded as demonstrating that the new system already has passed the experimental stage The certificate qf deposit plan which Is an Innovation In the transaction of postal savings business Is shown to be admirably adapted to Its purpose It is found to bo readily understood by depositors and easily handled by postmasters The total deposits in the forty eight existing postal banks for the month of January will amjjuqt to approximately 60000 This Is an average of about 1200 Assuming that this average will J e maintained throughout the year the aggregate of annual depos its will be close to threequarters of a million dollars This too will be the situation In the small offices where the banks are now in operation It is assured by the officers of the system that the i deposits will be correspondingly greater when the service Is extended to firstclass offices The average amount of deposits i being received at each office as indicated by the January returns Is I larger than the corresponding average for the British system of postal savings deposits In 1908 the most successful year in the history of that systemA majority of the depositors In January were foreign Americans j many of whom have been In the hab- It of sending their savings to their native countries for deposit An Im portant result of the system therefore Is to diminish the outflow from the United States of

ASSET These lots for sate Dukein s 000 Earl J750 Marquis 500 1 Count J450 Baron + 250 Knight J200 and a splendid assortment of orders and decorations at prices ranging from J20 toJ500 Although foreign countries do not thus openly advertise their readiness to do business with those who aspire to affix a handle to their names the fact Is generally recog nized that a considerable traffic In titles Is carried on It Is interesting to note however that a great deal of the money thus acquired Is devoted to charitable works The tiny republic of San Marino for instance which does a roaring trade In titles of nobility at fixed rages devotes the greater part of the profits to the maintenance of Us foundling and orphan asylum It will make you and all your heirs or only your male heirs if such is your desire a Duke for 1000 or an Earl for J750 Italy too will make you a Prince or a Duke for 1000 and a Marquis for J500 The title of Count will cost you J450 and that of a Baron 250 An Idea of the traffic done in titles may be gathered from the fact that a German firm trading In Sweden sends out a circular marked Private and Confidential offering to secure any orders k and decorations required The clr iiicuIar goes on to say that the firm have firstclass connections which enable them to procure such decora tions and that they have been doing big business for the last 30 years The list includes Papal honors for the Pone does a little business too and will make you a Count for 1450 or a Baron for J2501lonors of Per sin Turkey Spain Portugal Italy Rumania and Austria the cost of which

Order of Medjldleh and f180 will purchase the picturesque title of Swedish Knight of the Order of the Polar Star The orders of St George vary In price In dlffeVent countries In Sicily It costs t75 In Russia tl0 more and In Bavaria more than twice as much but you may become a Knight of Montenegro for as little as t15 c The King of Greece does rather a prosperous business with the Order ISxof the Redeemer which can be had r for t50 while Servla bestows the Order of Takova for a like sum The Prince of Monaco has for disposal the Order of the Star for which he nsks 25 and for JI0 less one can secure the Order of the Sun of Nasr eddin from the Shah of Persia Although titles cannot be barter ed In this country it Is of course an open secret that a generous contri bution to political funds often paves the way to a place In the peerage Apropos of this It is interesting to note that five years ago Franz Kos Buth the son of the famous patriot charged the Hungarian Government with receiving no less than 290000 by selling baronies to wealthy Jews at 20000 each Another phrase of this traffic In titles Is revealed by carefullyword ed advertisements which have ap- Peared In London papers from time to time offering for solo the titles of Impoverished noble families of France It Is pot so long ago since three titles two bf which wore French one a Count and the other a Marquis

that If the pests were exterminated the pople would save the expenditure of that amount for ImportsAs a consequence a strongly supported movement has been started for undertaking the wholesale destruction of rats throughout the British Islands The project is a good deal more useful than that of building Dread noughts If seriously undertaken on a large scale the progress of the movement will be watched with In forest throughout civilization One of the distinctive features of our era is the undertaking of efforts like this to get rid of pests that our ancestors submitted to almost without
