All l his while, however, there Is no sus pension In the work of organisation going on In the back office.

Instead of the rich, red blood of Vir ginia, Ice water shall flow through the veins of the people; 'Isms' which In one word would blot Kentucky out of the galaxy of stars and recreate her In the dread Image of Maine and Kansas."

The present situ ation will be Intensified many fold. .It does not require nn expert to reason this out. The most superficial can do I will go further and say that be cause of the administration with Its re ports every five minutes of new action and of heavy fines, the country Is al ready beginning to drift toward the rocks of financial depression.
