Frankfort Ky Jan 14 James B

McCreary was today elected United

States Senator from Kentucky to suc ¬

ceed W J Deboe whom he will all rr

ceed In less tban two months The

two houses of the General Assembly in

separate session stopped all other busi ¬

ness on the stroke of 12 today and

took a ballot for SenatorIn the Senate the vote stood 23 for

McCreary 11 for Deboe and 1for jxGov Bradley The vote for Bradleywas cast by Senator W H Cox of Ma

soa county nthe House the votestood 74 for McCreary and 24 for De ¬

boe

Having received a majority of all thevotes cast in each bouse Mr McCreary

Is the duly elected Senator as the Con-

stitution

¬

provides that where a candi-

date

¬

receives a m ij rltyof the votesin each separately it is not necessary

to take a joint ballot But as pre-

caution

=

the formality of another votein separate housES will be observed

againnext Tuesday on account of thefact that the Constitution Is not clearas to which Tuesday is the one intend-

ed for the election Mr McCreary Is

in the city but he did notappearatthe Statehouse today After nextTuesday Gov Beckham will issue hiscertificate of erection

JTbe ComultiteeSWhen the Legislature appropriated

a hundred thousand dollars to be used

It necessary to apprehend and bring tojustice the murderers of Wm Goebel

many papers cried shame and assumed

that the money would at once besquandered After seeing the namesof the committee and especially thatof Col WMMoore with whom we

are well acquainted wehad no fears of

such a result Later we learned thatthe other members of the committeewere made out of the same kind of ma-

terial as Cool Moore and we were suretherewould be no waste of money

Recently the committee met and cer¬

tain detectives came forward and de ¬

manded the reward for the convictionotYouLsey1I0h no said the com

mittee we paid your expenses and 8

ties

¬

it was while you were working forthe State and the State bought yourtime and paid for it and the results ofyour labor belong to the State Ofcourse the boys felt sore but the peo ¬

Worth ConsideringThat portion of Governor Beckhams

message welch he refers to the good

feeling teat now exists between peopleof different political parties is worthyof especial thought That a full under ¬

standing may be bad of his effort tobribg together the citizens of Kentucky for commercial advancementand to do away with the bitternessthat the heated and unfortunate po

litical contests of the past few years

have been productive We produce

that portion of the message

The dark cloud ut internal dissen ¬

slons that huqgoy r uVtwo years ago

in the unhappy differences then exist ¬

ing has disappeared and given way tothe sunshine of a better and more

rational feeling The unfortunatebitterness of that period caused by

extraordinary political conditions isfast disappearing and our people fully

realize the superior advantages of di ¬

verting their time and attention totbelndustrial progress of the Staterather than to the activities of heatedpolitical controversies and contestsnotwithstanding the many mlsrepre-

sentatlonsandslandersuttered by out ¬

siders concerning the conditions in theState and the frequent publications offajse and Injurious articles in sensa-

tional journals whose regard fqr truthis subordinate to their desire forromance itjs nevertheless a fact thatthe supremacy of law In Kentucky to-day issuch as to give every citizen asperfect a guaranty or prq ectiop of

life liberty or property as can be found

in anyState of the Uuion We havesuffered much by these false and ex

agera ted reports butit Is now happily

within our power to give absolute as ¬

surance to all that a condition of peace

and respect for the law exist fromone end of the State to th9 other lathe mountains of Kentucky whose

people have been the objects of muchunmerited abuse and have been charg ¬

ed with lawlessness and crime youwill find a most favorable condition ot

affairs The public officials there aredoing their utmost to enforce the law

and the people beginning to realizethe vast riches locked in their moun-

tains¬

are offering every opportunitya

and inducement for the investment of

capitol and the opening up of this un ¬

explored field of natural wealthThere is no reason why it should notbe done yndwe may confidently look

forward to a wonderful advancementin that part of the State in the nextfew years I am sure that it is yourdesire to encourage this spirit every ¬

where as far 1S it Is possible to dp so

by legislation and while in framinglaws to carefully guard the interestsof the people as a whole at the sametime to show a spirit of liberality andfairness that will aid in the develop ¬

ment of the resources of the StateWith the limitation placed by theConstitution upon the length of yoursession it fortunate that the circum ¬

stances are such as to enable oq togive your entire time to the considera¬

tion of matters that affect the subs-

tantial and business Interests of the

CommonwealthThein the weUi

chosen language is well calculated toinspire in the legislators a thoroughunderstanding that the time has come

for them to leave off heated and Un ¬

wise political discussion and proceedin the work advancing the Interestsof the State upon a higher plane of

actionItto the credit of the Governor

and to the advantage of aU Kentuckycans that such a feeling Is thus expressed by the executive it is a note of

warning to the untutored youngstersand a tocsin of great joy to the busi ¬

ness people who bear much of theburden of taxation Politics Is a good

thing about election time and It Is amans duty as itis his privilege to talkit and become infrrmedjand inform hisassociates but there are times for allthings and the shortsession of thelegislature should as it doubtless willbe devoted to furthering the jptereBteof the State and placing her abreastof others tn the race fUr tne goalofcommercial prestige DanTlllpiNews
