J. A. DeARMonD, Jackson, Ky., May 15,—News reached here to-night of the assas- sination of Riley Coldiron in Perry county. Coldiron was, with Captain John Patrick, the principal witness against Curtis Jett and Tom White, who were convicted for the murder of James Cockrill in Jackson, His home was not far from that of Abe Callahan, a brother to Sheriff Ed Callahan, who isa Hargis man, -| wo generators, one engine and a and the Callahan boys and Coldiron and his friends did not get along well, Last night Coldiron was returning from the store on Troublesome Creek five miles from his home, when the sharp report ofa Wincheeter startled the neighborhood and Coldiron fell from his horse. No arrests have been made. It is not known who is respons!ble for the deed, The body was not touched until this morning. The friends of the Callahan boys say they had gone to Jackson and were not in the vicinity of the place where the tragedy oc- ec be influenced from this course by a paper that makes a pretense of vir- tue in order to defeat her ends. The Globe played a deep game, but over- stepped the bounds in trifling with the honest sentiments of its readers, J, W. Jamison, Secretarv, Notice. We desire to meet the Ex-Confed- erates at the Court House in Butler Saturday evening, May 22, at 2 o'clock p.m, to elect officers of the Commandry for next year, and ar- range for the Ex-Confederate Reun- ion at Nashville, Tennessee, on June 14th. Tuomas O'NEILL, Commander, Folk’s Sentiments on Railroad Passes and Police Question “The first legislator who accepts a railroad pass,” said Mr. Folk, “will find an indictment awaiting him. I consider the railroad pass the worst form of bribery, andit must go. Once riding on a railroad pass, the soul of the legislator is the lobbyist’s, I would give thecorporations their rights under the law, but nothing more. I promise you that if I am elected governor I will drive the lobby out of Jefferson City. “I propose,” continued Mr. Folk, Rob Bank Safe of $2,000 at Metz, Mo.

State Democratic Convention Will Produce Maay Bitter Contests. Frankfort, Ky., May 15.—The State Democratic Convention, which meets in Louisville June 8, promises to be one of the most interesting since the Music Hall Convention of 1899, which nominated William Goebel, after an almost continuous session of eight working days. Chairman Allie W. Young, who was made Chairman of the State Commit- tee in the organization in that con- vention, has already declared he will organize the June convention by rec- ognizing such delegates in the tem porary organization as he deems en- titled to recognition, Mr. Young is reported to have gone to Governor Beckham at the Seelbach Hotel in Louisville several weeks ago and informed him of hisin- tention to pursue this policy, and de- clared that there would be bloodshed if there was an attempt to prevent his recognition of certain delegates, intimating a certain Fifth District element. The fight for the organization has afeature of the senatorial race to come up before the next Legislature in it, with a bearing on the next gub- ernatorial race in the background, Senator Blackburn will have oppo- nents before the Democratic legisla- tive caucus to succeed himself in Con- gressman Dave Smith of the Fourth District and several dark brorses, in- cluding probably Congressman Ollie James of the First District. Govern or Beckham has declared his purpose not to become a candidate. Itisa foregone conclusion that a strong > ihe The Bates Co. Monthiy Sale Co., under management of A. L. Fox & H. H.
