The Closing Speeches

The Democratic candidates arc now
in North Christian aud have been
since Tuesday making their last
speeches before the election. They
have made tLis return visit 10 tell thp
white voters, what the Republican
candidates had TO say to their colorod
brethren, in South Christian. This is
d kind of campaign the Big -Four does
not relish and on Tuesday most Of the
Boyd ticket flew the track and broke
for the night meetings of South Chris
tian, leaving thcir Democratic oppo
nents to finish their appointments
alone. Several speeches have been
ma lie in tho extreme northern dis
tricts this week and two more to-day
and tomorrow will complste the list
with the exception OF the final joint
powwow and hurrah at the Court
House tomorrow night. This meot-
ing will of course be mere test OF
lung power on the part of the respect
i've sioes and viii not change a vote
either way. In fact the People have
already made up their minds how
they will vote and we believe Il large
majority of them will vote against the
ticket that represents all that should
be condemned by good citizsns, re-
gardless of party. iEl-1

More than one colored man from
Christian county, who was driven by
actual want to steal something to eat
is now serving a term in the State
prison, and yet their crimes are the
essence of purity compared to tht
systematic stealing that prevailed il
the sheriif's Office during the recen,
season of corruption. The thief who
can sit down at table with o eool
head, a steady nerve and a guilty
conscience and deliberately rob and
pilfer from widows, orphans, poor and
needy old men and even from ths
dead, is tho meanest and most infa-
IN gus thief who ever disgraced a law
o'ing community with his Shiny
presence.

So far as the KENrUcKlAS is con
cerned the campaign is closed. Tn
next issue will convey to the peopl
the news of victory or defeat. Unles,
the indications are misleading and un
less we underestimate tho mo i
standing OF majority of the ,ot' r:
of Christian county, the big Four
ticket is doomed to defeat. A major.
ity OF the people may go on record as
endorsing dishonesty in its most des-
picable form, but we will not believe
it until it is done. If honesty is to
prevail, if corruption is to be con-
demned, if the most audaclous gang
of criminals ever permitted to run at
large are to be convicted or driven
out of the county, if the people are to
anticipate the work to be done by the
next grand jury and if the standing
OF Christian county as law-abiding
community is to be maintained, then
honest men must be elected next
Monday.

Part of section IA, Registration Law;
"At the said election no vote shall
be received unless the person offering
to vote is on the registry provided in
this act, and If his vote be challenged
by an officer of the election, or by a
by-stander, unless he exhibit to the
officers of the election the certificate
of registration issued to him in ac-
cordance with the requirements Of
section twelve and thirteen Of this
act. Provided, however, that any
person whose name is properly re-
corded on the registry provided by
this act, and who has lost his certifi-
cate of registration, shall be allowed
TO vote after he shall have been
sworn by one of the judges of the
election and shall have stated under
oath that he has lost said certificate
of registration and that said certificate
has not passed into the hands of an
other person with his knowledge or
consent"

County Offices more closely con
Germ the people than any other Of
fetal positions. Local officers have
to deal with the people direct and for
this reason such officials should be
chosen from the best and most capa.
ole men. Whenever in any county
the dominant party becomes SO cor
rupt that bad men control its councils
and improper nominees are placed
upon tickets that are supposed to be
backed by insincible majorities, the
time has come foi a revolt and hon
est men should look more to public
interest than party success. Such a
state OF affairs now exists in Christian
county and the Republican party has
put out a county ticket that represents
nothing that is good and commenda-
BILE in the party. Personal criticism
might be freely indulged in and some
weighty objections raised against the
nominees, but this is not campaign
OF personalities. Far more important
issues command the attention of the
tax payers Of the county and upon
the great question OF honesty and of
ficial integrity against fragrant cor
ruption and systematized robbery in,
the sheriff's Office, the case now goes
to the jury, made up of the voters Of
Christian county. 1t is time for
mon OF integrity and reputable char
acters to stand together and see that
the stigma of electing ticket
stamped with fraud is not placed
upon the county. The triumph of
such an element would be blow to
the prosperity of the county that
would be felt for years. Immigration
would be repelled, capital would be
driven out and decent people would
feel like leaving the county.
