Tin: Pemocratic pujiers are proclaim
ing that in his speech made in I'uflalo
la week, Mr. Cleveland struck the key
note of the campaign of 111', in w hich
be is now certain to be a candidate. It
is noteworthy that he w as especially loud
in his denunciation of the policy of pay
ing liljenil pensions to I'nion soldiers,
reiterated his old platitudes in favor of
free trade, and proclaimed his hostility
to the project of building up our mer
chant marine nuderthe Stars and Stripes.
This keynote will produce very discord
ant music ill the ears of patriotic Ameri
cans, unless we are grossly mistaken.
Tiik iovcrnor has vetoed the Road
Mil, assigning a score of reasons for his
action, a half-dozen of w hicb are that it
is unconstitutional iu that many of its
provisions. Thus the labors of many
weary hours have gone for naught. The
truth is, you can't have good roads with
out the expenditure of money, and a good
Jewl of it, and our farmers would rather
ilod oa in the old way throw ing dirt
into the roads, to lie washed into the
cl itches during the fall rains, and thrown
out again the next spring than to go
dow n into their jwekets for the necessary
sum to make jK-rinarMMit highways. With
more than a thousand sijnare miles of
mountain territory, it would require a
very large sum of money annually to
Keep the roads and bridges of this county
in first -class repair. So. we presume our
leop!e w ill not ione much sleep over this
last veto of iovernor Paltiaon.
The Kentucky Democratic State Com
mittee, in its platform adopted last w eek,
slec.lares, "We insist that tariff reform is
the iaramouiit question before the
American public, and denounce the
t llckinley bill as the most outrageous
taxation eer passed in the American
Congress." Having succeeded in delud
ing the people by false statements in the
last campaign, the Iemocracy are evi
dently going to force the fight in the
coming Presidential campaign on the
tariff issue. The Uepublicans are noth
ing loth to accept this faje of battle.
K), let the issue be made up between
Protection and Free trade. A Abraham
J.iuooln was wont to say, "The plain
eoplemay U deceived once, but not a
second time." The McKinley law is
here to stay for years yet to come.
Aktkk much hard work and vexation
of spirit, the House Committee on Con
gressional Apportionment has reported a
lull leaving the districts as now consti
tuted, with the addition of au additional
district each for Allegheny and Phila
delphia. If the Senate concurs, and the
iovernor does not interpose his veto, the
discoidant elements in the present dis
trict must reconcile their differences, ot
a number of them may change front. In
the light of past experience, it is scarcely
to be expected that the Legislature will
agree upon any bill that will meet the
approtation of our veto-loving CJovernor,
and therefore, less than the usual inter
est is taken in Congressional apportion
ment. However, with the present ap
Iortionmeut, and the certainty of the
Ilepuhlicans electing the two additional
members, if placed on the State ticket.
can a fiord to be content if our friends,
the enemy, are.

Clarion, Columbia, Crawford, Hunting

the bill, as the Constitution arbitrarily
tixes the rule for apportioning Represen
tatives. One member only for Somerset
looks like retrocession, but the mining
and manufacturing districts increase se
rapidly in population that purelv agri
cultural counties like this w ill have to be
content with one Representative, prob
ably for all time to come.
The House of Representatives has de
cided to adjourn on May 2Sth, but the
senate has a say-so in the mutter, and
tbe June roses are likely to find our
Solans still lingering in Harrisbarg. The
present Legislature, like most of its
predecessors, Buffers from two chronic
evil Blatherskites and Procrastination.
Until tbe one class is gagged, and the
other left at home, there ii no hope for
shorter and business sessions. Abolish

complished in three mouths. The pres
ent legislature is, however, no worse
than the average so-called "deliberative
bodies." The first two-thirds of the see
s on are generally waited, and business
is rushed during the last third, without
deliberation.
An Object Lsaton to Farmers.
From the J. Y. Fre.
A bushel of wheat will buy two or three
time as much sugar to day as It did a year
ago. So will a bushel of potatoes. A bushel
of wheat or a bushel of potatoes will buy
twice as much of the lcxuriea of life as it
did a year ago. The producer of wheat and
potatoes, the lord of the soil known as a
farmer, who contemplates these results of
the new Tariff law, is not likely to be fright
ened by the cry of "McKinley prices." The
"McKinley prices" suit him to the dotting
of the i and the crossing of the t that records
them.
From 35000 to 4-0.000 Old Soldier
Passing Away Annually.
Xew York Press.
Writing about pensions, I recall some in
formation that came to m witbin a few
days fixm Captain George E. Lemon, the
well known pension agent at Washington.
I had asked him how rapidly the old sol
diers were dying, when he said: "At the
close of the war there were about 2,To0.0o0
veterans. The census returns show about
l.lMO.Om now living. The pension rolls
carry about "0,ijO. The deaths of pension
ers reported to the pension bureau aggregate
about S.oort annually, but by no mesns all
tbe deaths of jiensioners are reported. Not
more than four fifths are so reported, and
the pension otlice only ascertains the death
of the other 2,")by continued abseneeofthe
pensioner on pension pay men' day. It is fair,
from the ratio of pensioners to veterans, to
presume that fully 35,i to ,' old sol
diers are dying off annually. They will eo
much faster in the next ten years than at
any iieriod before.
Ten Million Dimes Put Away.
Washin(.T05, I). C. May 15. A Treasury
official, speaking of the embarrassment the
dime pocket savings banks are causing the
Treasury Department, is quoted as saying
that it is estimate that there are $1, "',
in dimes hidden away in these pocket banks
to-day, and there appear to be no way to
draw upon this reserve until the bank is
glutted to its full capacity. It in getting to
be a craze.
Why, every other woman In the building
hi a bank, and lots of the men, too. There
are a thousand dime banks in active opera
tion in the department alone, and thousands
in the other departments, and ten thousand
more in the hands of Washington children,
and ever- one of them has a wide-open
mouth yawning to devour the fractional
coin.
It is estimated that 75 per cent, of the
dimes 1 1 1 nt were in circulation three months
ago in the city have Uvn tanked in these
little tubular dejtositories, ar.d the cry is for
more.
The craze ha tTr-t-J other cities, too.
Baltimore, N' ork, Philadelphia and
other conimt rt .! 'owns are sorely put to
fircbange of this unit of value. This de

Treasurem a great deal of worry, for it re

Another West Virginia Feud.
Catlfttshi bi., Ky May IS. Particulars
of a tragedy reached here this morning from
(iager, McDowell county, W. Va., in which
three men were killed outright and another
seriously wounded. Tbe Hall and Steel
families have been oa the outs for a year.
The Hal's consisted of father and four sons,
while the Steels count three able-bodied
men. On Saturday tbe four Hall boys and
two of the Steels met at 'Squire Murphy 'i
oftioe to transact some legal business. AU
were well armed.
One of the Hall boys was on tbe witness
stand and contradicted a statement made by
a Steel. The lie was given and the ball
opened. The court room was quickly emp
tied of ita occupants not interested in the
trouble. About to ahota were fired, and
when the smoke of the encounter cleared
away two of the Bteel boys, Samuel and
Hiram, were found to have been killed out
right. L. W. Hall bad a ritle ball through
his brain, and his brother Lewis was badly
wounded. Tbe other two hare not been
arrested and will proably not be. as they are
known to be deserate men.
Twenty Blocks In Ashes.
MisKEooN, Mich., May IT. More than
twenty blocks of this city are iu smouldering
ruins. Fire broke out in the Launkowell
barns yesterdsy afternoon, and, fanned by a
stiff breeze, swept ten blocks up Pine street,
amain thoroughfare. Here a silsTi in the
wind drove the flames across Terrace Ave.,
a fine residence street, and from there the
fire swept a strip quite to the city's edge.
Not less than i'K) families are homeless,
and last night the city thronged with be
wildered, boaaeleaa, destitute sufferers. Peo
ple whose homes were aaved stood in their
doors and welcomed rich and poor alike.
Nearly all tbe homeless ones were provided
with shelter. In a few cases homeless
people slept out of doors in tents. As yet
there is no general movement looking to the
raising of funds for tbe distressed.
A Flortua Baby Trust.
Bmrkii;k, Ga., May Z'. A. M. Thomas
a native of Iecatur enunty. who lives just
across the State line in Gadsden county, Fla.
is 35 years old and the father of 32 children

who is also a native of Decatur county, is
three years younger than he.
Kifieen years ago they were married. In
L1" months they found themselves the parents
of four bright and beautiful children. With
alnioi unvarying regularity ever since the
family has been increased by the addition
sometimes of twins, sometimes of triplets,
nntil tbe number baa reached 52.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas are a thrifty, happy
and contented couple, and their children are
as fine looking a set as one often sees.

THE ROAD BILL VETOED.
Governor Pattlson Say the Objec
tions are Manifold.
Governor Pattison yesterday sent to tte
Senate his veto of what is commonly known
as the Koad bill. He said:
"The otyctiona to this measure seem to
me to he manifold. Its purposes are so nu
merous and diverse as to expose it to the
Constitutional objection of containing more
than one subject. Whatever jwpuiar de
mand exist for the enactment of legislation
on the subject ol rta ana roaa maKing j QVt ,,,loto bs uscU to illustrate the
w ill certainly not be aatisl.ed with the pro- ! of a .leli,iLtft.l holiday amidst unusn
visions of this bill. If they are to be made . ..,,. lM ..want i,iut, info
If they are to be made
effective at all, they could, be made so only
by the lilieral appropriation of S:ate moneys,
for which neither this bill, nor any other
legislation as yet enacUd, has made provis
ion. Even if auch grant were made, it is
very doubtful whether the plan of distribu
tion proposed by thia bill would be equit
able, satisfactory or Constitutional. The
basis of distribution which it proposes is the
amount of road taxes collected and expend
ed by each township for road purposes dur
ing tbe preceding year. This would put it
entirely within the power of rich and popu
lous rural districts, such, for example, as
adjoin large cities or boroughs, to receive a
large share of the State's bounty, which
would be applied where, perhaps, it was
least needed for the purpose of general road
improvement, while remote, sparsely settled
and comparatively poor districts, where road
improvements were most desired, would re
ceive little or comparatively nothing.
"Moreover, the policy and propriety of the
grant of State moneys raised by general tax
ation to particular districts or communities,
are extremely doubtful, if not absolutely
foibidden by tbe spirit of the constitutional
provisions declaring that there shall be no
appropriations for benevolent purposes to
any community, and that the Common
wealth shall not assume tbe debt of any
city, county, borough or township. The
present enactment proposes to distribute to
some of the districts of the State, for a pure
ly local purpose that of road making
moneys which have been raised by taxation
upon all tbe citizen of tbe State. Tbe roads
of townships only are to be constructed and
repaired by the aid of State moneys, while
those of municipalities are to be provided
for by local taxation. This is a discrimi
nation wholly unwarranted by the Consti
tution. "Furthermore, I cannot Ignore the fact
that this bill passed the Howe of Represen
tatives by a bare constitutional majority.
That majority, it is notorious, was only se
cured with great difflci.lty, and I violate no
confidence in saying that since its passage in
the one branch of the fienenil Assembly a
n amber of members, whose votes were re
quired to make that majority, have tom
municated to me their opposition to and
protest against the bill in its present form.
Of the lo3 members wbo comprised this ma
jority, barely one-fifth represent districts
affected by the bill. It was imposed upon
the communities affected by it against the
votes and protest of a large proportion of
their represenlivaa.
"Finally, if there were no other objections
to this bill, a sufficient one would be afford
ed by the fact that there are at present special
and local road laws to the number of "'"',
governing as many townships of the State.
It" the present bill is to have any efficiency
it must result from its operation as a general
road law, binding at least on all the town
ships of the State. The section which pro
poaes to repeal all special and local laws
inconsistent with it is not sufficient for that
purpose, according to the decisions of our
Supreme Court. It they remain, as they
certainly will under the bill In its present
form, it will utterly fall as a measure to se
cure uniformity of road law. Other reasons
forcibly suggest themselves for a disapproval
of this measure, but I ditn those which I
have set forth as ample to justify a veto of
the bill."
White Caps Defied by an Editor.
CHattasooc.a, Tenn., May 15. Theyoung
briile who was recently whipped by White
Cap women at IhicKtown, Tenn., has died,
after intense suffering. Three men who
were shot by the White Caps, will also die.
Editor Craig Miles, of the Ducktocn lltpw
trr, when three armed men ordered him to
leave, on account of his description of the
outrages, grabbed his gun and held his
ground. He is at present here, but aays that
be will return to Duck town.
Ths White Cap women who are nsiponsi-
b'e for tbe bride's death, are nnder arrest.
Their friends are determined to keep them
out of jail, so a fight between the police and
the mob seems imminent. Further murders
are expected, as tbe White Cap people are
aaid to be hardened and drunk.

PiTTsnrao, Pa., May 1). Quietness reign

that men had been kept prisoners and ob

was ordered to investigate tbe matter. In
his report, made to-day, he gives these
charges a denial and says that the men at

A Companion for Your June Out
ing.
With over 120 illustrations for June, the
CjnwilUiin for Jane sets a fast pace in the
handicap for magazine honors. Tbe person
al element enters largely into ita composi
t:on, and an impression of b'j!iful women
it the first received by the reader who turns
its Tges. The frontispiece is a portrait of
Mat tame de Pompadour, and ptrtains to a
bright sketch of a summer speot in the borne
of that famous woman by Amelia Hives and
her guests. Miss Julia Magruder, tbe wri
ter, was one of those cucits, and instantone-
the attractiveness of Japanese women is giv
en in a pair by Henry T. Finck, illustrated
by a lare number of photographs of pretty
fanes. The art article of the month describes
the work offuitsve Dore, with elaborate
engravings which illustrate very well the
masterpieces of that wonderful artist. Thos.
B. Connery. formerly managing editor of
tbe New York Herald, gives interesting
reminiscenses of tbe first work of Stanley
for that journal, and of his neighbor, Thos.
A. Edison. 8. G. W. Benjamin. ex-Minister
to Persia, tells tbe true story of Noor Mahal,
the Light of tbe Harem, celebrated by Thom
as Moore in L&llah Rookh. This bit of
Eastern biography is illustrated from Orien
tal sources. Three continents furnish mate
rial for tbe Jane number. Tbe European
contributions consist of a description of a
Model Municipality, an srticle well worth
the sttention of Americana interested in mu
nicipal government; the Woolwich Arsen
al, which Mr. Pelbam Cliuton, through in
fluential relatives, was permitted to have
made for tbe Cwmopolitan, and a charming
sketch of Beau Brummel and his times.
Hjalmar Hjorth Boyeseu'a story illustrated
by Wenzell, whose work on Life has made
him so well known the country over.
The half million people who write for
periodicals will find matter of great interest
in an article by Mr. Frank Howard Howe,
for some time one of the editors of a New
York monthly. Mr. Howe gives bis person
al experiences of the manuscripts of the
"Great Unpublished," and offers much ad
vice that will be found useful. Perhaps tbe
most valuable article of the number is that
contributed by Mr. Ahner L. Frazer to the
literature of the farmer's movement. The
Cosmopolitan prise of 2X5 for the best arti
cle on "the needs of the farmer, bis hours of
labor, and the national legislation necessary
to his prosperity," was awarded by the
judges to this gentleman. The article itself
is brightened by a series of cartoons uy the
famous artists, Attwood, of Boston and Dan
Beard, of Xew York. iCosmopolitin Pub
