district and who is also contesting the seat of RepreSen tative IIunter was married in London last Thursday to Mis Lida IIoge The wedding was a very quiet affair There is scarcely a doubt about the guilt of Tames McDonald who has been arrested charged with the murder of Miss Shaefer the Bedford Ind school teacher His bloody coat and muddy shoes were found in his house and when taken to the scene of the crime he quivered and fell in a swoon He is a marriedman a teamster and his object was assault Secretary Hay has addressee notes to Russia and Japan invit ing their cooperation in the move- ment started by the United State to preserve the integrity of China by the abservance of the neutral ity of that nation in localizing the field of war Secretary Hay has r ec j eve d enough fav- orable replys from the European Powers to warrant this action No ieference is made to Korea An American warship will no doubt be sent to Chemulpo to majntain communication with the American Minister at Seoul The George bill passed the Ken tucky Senate on the 10th provid ing that the people be allowed to vote to change the constitution to change from the secret sys tern of voting and return to the viva voce way We believe that a change in the manner of voting would be good and wholesome to the State but are not particular ly stuck with the viva voce sys- tem however we much prefer it to the present We favor a gen eralregistration law and can see no reason why it should not ap ply to the country as well as to the cities Registration is a safe- guard against illegal voters and along the borders of our State as well as in the interior Such a requirement in our judgment is absolutely necessary and would not be a burden to the voters nor an impositition on any political party After registration is required Ye believe that every voter should vote by ballot either secretly or openly just as he chooses We do not believe that the law should specify that it should be open or closed but allow every man the right to determine K for himself Whatwe need is a f system that will give every man r the privilege to do as he prefers We have never favored the be- behindthe tainpo1icy neither have we everfelt that the law was a protection to the timid In our opinion it affords an op portunity to the floaters to sell to both parties and to cover up the crime As we see this secret system it serves as a cloak for manyto cover up the sale of their suffrage and claim respectability and to the open honest voter to independta ence We hope to see the system abolished and return to the un restricted ballot to be used only by registered voters whose rights are unquestioned in every case First Victories For Japan Japans naval victories over Rus- sia to date show the following vessels sunk damaged

captured on Korean coast Four Russian whalers reported captured- S For several months the rela tions between Russia and Japan have been in a strained condition and at times war seemed inevita ble then again it wouldappear that diplomacy would solve the situation and the dark clouds of threatened war would give way tQ the bright and hopeful signs of peace and goodwill but diplo mats were not able to handle the trouble and the arbiter is the cannon War has been declared and some of Russias powerful ships have been destroyed and disabled by the deadly aim of the Japs The people of this coup try are familiar with the trouble that prompts those nations to en g ge in the bloody deeds of war and while our government has declared neutrality yet the sen- timent of Americans are decided ly faverable to the Japs So far as we are interested and so far as we are able to understand the situation we do not believe Japan to be wholely in the right nor Russia entirely wrong The ava rice of Russia has led her too far east has placed her in territory that should be free from her grasp and her aggressive busi ness methods are menacing toI the interests of Japan but Japan has been hasty and turned loose her guns before the workers for peace had reached the end or ex hausted all resources and hopes Russia is strong in arms and means but must fight her battles at great distance from home Japan may win Russia may be the victor but one thing cer thin millions of money will be squandered thousands of lives blotted out the world made poor er but likely wiser War is a dreadful game It strikes down the innocent as well as the guil- ty it leaves desolation despair and ruin it changes happiness to misery and leaves mourning in itsJ wake We trust that these na tions may early settle their troubI les
