It will stop growing in the course of two or three months after the 4th of March next. =—_—_—__ ‘‘Assassrmation”’ is the only term that conveys an adequate idea of the manner in which General Weyler is putting to death by drumhead court martial hundreds of Cubans merely suspected of sympathy for the in- surgent cause. In the name of com- mon humanity the United States should interfere. ‘Tur ‘‘Globe-Democrat”’ is of the opinion that if Kentucky, West Vir- ginia and Maryland should unite in recommending a man fora cabinet position he would be apt to be ap- pointed. That is probably true but it is a violent supposition that they should possibly so unite. Tuxnn are on the United States pension rolls seven widows and seven daughters of revolutionary soldiers, the youngest widow being 80 years of age and the youngest daughter 75 years, There are on the rolls four- teen survivors of the war of 1812, the youngest of whom is 90 and the oldest 104. Ir transpires that Spain has made overtures to Chili for the purchase of the new Cruiser Esmeralda, 5,000 tons, 28 knots, the small battleship Congress, and a number of torpedo destroyers building for the Chilian government, and almost completed in England. Evidently the Spanish government sees trouble ahead. Tun proud position occupied by our neighboring state of Illinois as the banner Republican state of the West has been well earned. _Iilinois is the third state in the union in pop- ulation and wealth, being surpassed in these respects only by New York and Pennsylvania. in per capita wealth she is exceeded among the states east of the Missouri river only by New York and Bhode Island the per capita wealth of the three states being $1,324, $1,430 and $1,450, Rhode Island leading. Of the states west of the Mississippi, seven of the inping states have a per capita wealth exceeding $2,000 and three exceeding $3,000, Tux Joint Boundary Commission, appointed under the convention of 1882, and continued by various sub- quent conventions, to Ox the boun- dary between the United States and Mexico, hes just completed its labors sod submitted its report through Col, J. W. Barlow, of the United States corps of engineers. Prior to the date of this treaty, boundary dis- disputes were not infrequent on ac- count of the defective markings, many of the original monument having been destroyed.

There is no question whatever that a Repub- lican could be elected now to succeed Senator Blackburn were the legisla- ture convened. We are only sure of the present; what the future, even the near future, way have in store for us we can not tell. Why then should the opportunity be frittered away by unnecessary delay? A month or six weeks may develop a state of affairs that would render it impossible to elect a Republican Sen- ator. The Governor is accused of delaying the call because he is him- self a candidate for the Senatorship and feels that his strength at this time is not sufficiently assured. We do not believe the Governor will be candidate for the United State Sen- atorship. He knows the interests of his party demand that be retain the governorship, and the Sun believes he will not permit a personal ambi- tion for higher honors, should he cherish it, to induce him to place the party supremacy in peril. It is hoped Governor Bradley will make up his mind to call an early session and that the business of electing # United States Senator will be taken up and promptly disposed of. —_— In the days of quietude since the excitemedt of the election our Demo- cratie exchanges are often hard, pressed for something to talk about in frequent speculations on probable appointees to offices within the gift of the President and to which some of our people are cligible. The names of Mr. Frank Fisher, Capt. Faley, Major Ashcraft and others have been mentioned in connection with the Postoffice here and that of Mr. Fisher ia connection with the collectorship at Owensboro. The federal plums within reach of the denizens of the First District are not numerous, the two mentioned being among the most important ones not within the civil service requirements. It is too early as yet to form an epinion as to the probabilities in either case. An _ interview with Mr. Fisher reveals the fact that any statements made concerning his candidacy for either office are unau- thorized, as he is himself undecided a3 to what he will do, While hemay be a candidate for one or the other positions he considers it too early to enter the fight even if he had made up his mind, which he has not. Mr. Fisher naturally feels that his servi- ces to the party are entitled to recog- nition but does not expect to engage in a scramble for place. For the Mayfield post office the chief aspirants are Messrs. Wallace Keys and O. B. Happy. Messrs. Clark and Hall will be the chief con- testants for tle Fulton postmaster- ship, while Mr. W. H. Long, T. T. Hanberry and Mrs. Belle M. Baker, of Eddyville, will be the candidates for the’ office in the town of the branch penitentiary. ORIGIN AND GROWTH OF THE FREE TRADE 5! ME The idea that all trade between nations should be free and untram- meled by duties collected on imports at ports of entry originated with England, whose manufacturers had developed to such an enormous mag- nitude as to render the home con- sumption of their products a mere bagatelle as compared with the amount produced. It thus became absolutely necessary, in order to find a market for her surplus that she should seek markets abroad, Her commercial marine like her manufac- tures has developed enormously eo that her ships penetrate to the utter- most parts of the earth and her flag is met on every sea, She knows full well that the employment of her com- mercial navy depends on the patron- age of her manufacturing industries, Seeking markets abroad, she at once sees that her interests will be served best by the freest markets, For whatever duties she pays must be added to the price of the article when placed on the market or be deducted from the profits to the mauufacturer, and thus tend to cripple her power of competition, In order to secure open markets in other coun- tries she must cultivate a sentiment in favor of free trade, To this end} was the Cobden Club organized, By far the most desirable market for the > ihe! 208 over a fietance of near surplus products .of, her looms, her ork shops is the yn of its im- great wealth, hits rat land through which the line passes is} and accordingly indulge themselves sgt Sill of free tr ie ‘country whose trace is most consid- erable, Accordingly the insidious sophis- tries of the British free trader are te sued under the direction of this or- ganization and freely distributed on this continent where they find converts first among those whose immediate personal interest makes it desirable for them to purchase goods cheaper than they can in the home market nd who are not broad minded enough to place the greater common of the people above their im- mediate personal advantage; those who will not look into the future, but calculate only for the present. Of this clas# first the cotton planter of the South was the principal expo- nent. His chief market for his raw cotton wasin England, the cotton factories of this country not having been sufficiently developed to furnish him a market. He was not broad minded enough to see that a protec- tive tariff would build up the indas- try at home, and thus furnish him a far better market than that of Eng land. me! in the free importation of foreign goods the best opportunity for his in- dividual advancement. A third important factor in the dissemination of this ruinnous doc+ trine was our schools and colleges, which adopted English text books on political economy and thus in- stilled into the minds of the youthful students the doctrines of English authors, written from the standpoint of that people, for whom free trade was desirable, they having all to gain and nothing to lose by its adoption. They did not take into consideration the different conditions of the two peoples. These influences gradually under- mined the foundations of the Amer- ican doctrine, and eventually built up a sentiment in favor of free trade, which has become a very important feature of American politics. One consideration alone, however, should be sufficient to convince an American that free trade, or if you prefer it, a low tariff, is not good for this country, and this is the fact that England so much desires it, and puts forth such great efforts to secure it. She is working for her own and not our advantage. In addition to this, however, the bistory of the country shows that every tariff law framed om the lines of non-protection bas been quickly followed by a depression in all kinds of business, and especially manufactures. Our recent depres- sion is directly traceable to the same caus¢, aggrayated by the frec silver folly. WAIVED EXAMINATION, George Jones, Charged With Rape, Goes Back to Jail. His Alleged Victim Has Recov- ered, and His Attorney Advised His Action, George Jones, colored, charged with rape, waived examination in Judge Sanders’ court this morning and was held over to the circuit court. The case may not be so bad as re- ported. The wife of Jones was not half gone of ,consumption when the outrage was committed, but was in court today bearing every evidence of a healthy, robust woman. Alice Mitchell, the alleged victim has never been in a precarious condition, as reported in a contemporary, but is as well as most other girls of her age. The witnesses were recognized for their appearance next Monday before the grand jury, and in default of bail Jones was remandéd to jail. CASE DISMISSED, Ong Woman Probably Cannot Constitute a Bawdy House. ‘Those women who live alone and are guilty of immoral conduct cannot be fined, according to Judge San- ders’ decision this morning, on the charge of keeping # bawdy house This is an old common law offense, he said, but there js no statute on the subject, and no decision in point rel- ative to what constitutes » bawdy house, Judge Sanders gave a good roast to assignation houses and to those who keep private resorts, He said the officers should be vigilant enough to catch the woman for immorsl con: duct, if for nothing else.

HIS VICTIM DIED SATURDAY, Alden Was Captured and Claims He Acted in Self Defense, INQUEST HELD,—CASE CONTINUED, rday An inquest was held yes lishment over the remains of George’ Fitzpatrick, colored, who was knifed by Dock Olden Iast Saturday on “Dry River Front,’’ near Fifth and Jones streets. After being con-| veyed to the city hospital, the victim lingered until 8:30 in an uncon- scious state, then expiring. The wound was but three inches long, was inflicted with a knife blade about an inch and a balf long, and one of the arteries was cut. Olden was captured Saturday night at 11:30 by Officers Crow and | Bond at the home of Grundy Smith, | colored, not far from the scene o! the fray. He was armed witha shot- gun, but made no attempt to use it, come back and surrender, as he was justified in what he did. Hewas locked up and slept well throughout the night, not being told of Fitzpatrick’s death until yesterday morning. He made no reply when Dr. Troutmaa broke the news. Later, he was transferred to jail, The inquest developed no new fea- tures in the case. Four witnesses were examined, all colored, and be- ing related to the prisoner, the testi- mony was of course favorable to him, His wife was allowed to tes- tify, but will not be competent in the subsequent trials. The cutting took place in front of Jim Brooks’ house, where Fitzpat- rick boarded when in the city. Brooks’ wife is mother ‘of Olden’s wife. According wo eye witnesses Fitepatrick and Olden had been across the river unl6ading ties. They returned Saturday and Fitzpatrick began drinking. He sent a bucket of beer to Olden'’s wife, who dey clined to drink it, and gave it to some men who were in the house, When Fitzgatrick learned this he wentover and began abusing the woman right before her husband, A sick child began crying and Fitzpat- rick struck it: The woman re- proached her husband for allowing a man to abuse his wife and child in their own house, and Fitzpatrick was ejected. He dared Olden out side, and when the latter went out threw & brick gt him. ‘The fight ensued and the cutting took place. Fitapatrick walked into the house and began groaning, dis- closing the wound, from which the entrails protruded. The verdict of the coroner's jury was that the deceased died from a knife wound inflicted by Dock Olden, and recommended that further in- vestigation he made by a court of inquiry or grand jury. A Warrant was eworn out this morning before Judge Sanders against Olden chargiug tim with wilful murder, The prisoner was brought into oom and stated that he was able to| employ @n attorney and asked for) jge Campbell. “The witnesses all ion absent the case was continued, Olden afterwards consulted with his attorney and waived examination | being held over without bail for grand jury action.
