If the Buckeye Democrats will just lay aside their personal grievances and unite on any good man they can wipe out the Republicans in the approaching contest. There is some talk of starting a factor here to make smoking tobacco.

There is no reason at all why it couldn't be manufactured at just as much profit here as anvwhere else. The Danville Advocate very truthfully and pointedly observes that some people who oppose the now Constitution have never read the old one, and were they told that it was the now instrument wouldn't know the difference." It is an important matter, and every voter should take the trouble to thoroughly inform himself on the subject so that he can vote intelligently A vast amount of printed matter in opposition to the new Constitution is being sent out to different portions of the State and distributed among the people. This work costs money, and no small amount. "Who is footing the bills? People who contribute to such a fund don't usually do so simply because they want to spend money. An answer to this question might be of service to people in doubt as to whether the adoption of the new Constitution would prove of benefit or detriment to the people at large.

Georgetown Times. General Beatty, one of the prominent Republicans of the Buckeye State, pays Governor Campbell the following tribute Governor Campbell may have niadc.mls takes, but in manliness of bearing, In atteutlou to public duties, In courtesy to those who call at the executive office on official business, in dispassionate and Intelligent consideration of public affairs, in courageous treatment of incompetent or dishonest appointees, In tool, deliberate, methodical action, and in earnest desire to maintain the honor of the State and promote its prosperity, he has had no superior In the Gubernatorial olllce uitliln the past fifteen ears. Hols not only better than his party, but stronger; and if Forakcr think anj body Is going to have to use his ow bo.islful language' a glorious a pleasing a sort of restful In defeating Campbell, he thinks the thought of iv fool." This is strong language to be spoken of a Democrat by Republican, but it is well merited. "Vu believe it was that wide awake journal, the Louisville Times, that made the discovery a few days ago that if the now Constitution should bo adopted, Kentucky could make no appropriation for the "World's Fair at Chicago in 1S93. To bear it out in this statement the Times quoted the following section of the new organic law The credit of this Commonwealth shall never be given or loaned in old of any person, association, municipality or corporation.

No sooner did this appear in the Times, than the Owensboro Messenger, the Richmond Climax, and other papers that get their cue from the Louisvillo Courier-Journal crowd, joined in the cry. They all wanted the new Constitution defeated because it wouldn't allow the Legislature to appropriate any funds for an exhibit at tho World's Fair. They didn't carry their investigations far enough, however. If thoy had done this thoy would have found that the objectionable section was exactly similar to tho provisions on tho subject in the organic law wo have been living under for years. Here is what tho present Constitution says (Article 2, Section JW): Tho credit of this Comraomveolth shall never be given or loaned in nld of nny person, association, municipality or corporation.

A comparison shows that tho section about which such a hue and cry was raised is takon word for word from tho present Constitution. "Wonder whether the Times, tho Messenger, tho Climax and tho other papers will bo fair enough now to acknowledge they wero wrong. As tho Louisvillo Post remarks: "Neither of theso provisions can affect tho right of tho Gonoral Assembly to appropriate a sufficient sum of money to make a proper exhibit at tho "World's Fair. In doing this tho State will not violate tho old or now Constitution. It would not bo "a gift or loan to any person, association, municipality or corporation." For tho Farmer.

The Limestone Stock Farm will close the season July 1 with McAllister, as he goes into training. George Washington is on record as saying: "Orchard grass is of all others, in my opinion, tho best mixture with clover; it blooms at precisely the same time, rises quickly again after cutting, stands thick, yields well, and both cattle and horses are fond of it, grcon or in.hay." Wheat is being harvested and is making a fair yield. The straw is somewhat short and so is many of tho heads, but the latter are well filled, and if wo don't have too much rain before threshing timo the crop will of better quality than usual. Tho grass seed crop, while quito a short one, is some bettor than was anticipated and the prospect of big prices stimulated tho gatherers and in some places considerable seed was saved. Tho buyers and sellers are widely apart in their views, 80 cents being offered and $1 asked.

It is reported that one of our large farmers has sold his crop of 1,500 bushels for August delivery at tho latter price. Winchester Democrat. A Big Peach Orchard. The Hustonville correspondent of tho Danville Advocate says: of King's Mountain, owners of tho largest peach orchard in Central Kentucky, are now picking and shipping to market. Thoy estimate their present crop at bushels early peaches.

They employ during tho season of picking and packing 150 hands. They have also built a dry house with two large evaporators, with a capacity of 150 bushels daily. This is ono of tho largest industries in the landand is paying the gentlemen quite handsomely for their investment. This extensive orchard is an old worn out farm, formerly owned by Green Bar-nett, who, in former years, with a good season, could raise 3 or 4 barrels of corn per acre, and was satisfied with the returns. This peach orchard lies within an hour's walk of 'Mc Wharton tho finest fishing ground in all this region." i County Court Doings.

James fehackleiord resigned as guardian of Bertha Lee Moran, having previously filed a full settlement of his accounts as guardian aforesaid.

Anna Rene In the 2:30 List. Says the Paris Record Anna Rene, by Cyclolie, dam Naomi, by Twilight, won the two-year-old stake at Springfield, 111., Tuesday in 2:33 and 2:30.

Clay, owner of Cyclone, had promised him if she entered the 2:30 list in her first nice.

Anna Rene is tho new two-year-old wonder we spoke of a few weeks since, and something wonderful may bo expected of her before the season closes. "Snip Nose and Dr. Sparks both trot this week at Springfield, and on Saturday Unole Jack will take his string to Bloom- ington, 111., where ho expects to be in it a few times." Denominational Doings. Elder C. P.

The Cumberland Presbyterian Church in Kentucky has 243 organizations, 185 church edifices, with ar seating capacity of 05,350, worth $254,000, and 15,358 communicants. Tho prayer attributed to Lyman Beecher some people feel inclined to repeat. It was: "God help us not to despise our rulers; and God help them not to bo such men that wo can not help despising thorn." Buggies Camp Meeting.

A "Uomeless" Novelist.

Mr. David Christie Murray has been recounting to tho good people of South Australia how ho become a novelist. On bis first arrival in London he found, like so many others, tho difficulty of getting employment on the press. Before the turn of the tide came, he says, ho had four days' wandering in the streets, and at nights sat on the benches of the Thames embankment in most curious company. He was at last helped by the late John Lovell, of the Press association, afterward of the Liverpool Murcury, who "invented" Bome work for him, and sent him two guineas in a pill box, labeled "To be taken immediately." London Tit-Bits.

A Curlons Apache Belief. Tho Apache Indians' religious belief prevents them from committing murder in the dark, if a dozen Apaches should discover a man sleeping by his camp fire at night no amount of money would hire them to attack him until the sun came up. Thoy believe that if they kill a man at night their own souls will walk in eternal darkness forever. Knowing this curious superstition, hunters, scouts, trappers and others traveling through the Apache nation move about during the night and lay by in some safe retreat during the day. St.

Louis Republic The word catarrh, as popularly used, means either nasal catarrh or bronchitis. Nasal catarrh is often helped by snuffing up, so as to carry it into the mouth, a weak 'solution of salt and water, repeating the operation several times a day. Where the disease is very persistent, it is well, when possible, to try a change of climate. In bronchitis tho case should be attended by a physician. The fact that many of the houses of Portland, and San Francisco are built of redwood is given as a reason for the few destructive fires that occur in those cities.

The wood is almost uninflammable, and, though a fire will smolder in it, it never blazes.
