ASHLAND. HOME OF HENRY CLAY MCDOWELL
the trial against the man who Is now
being tried second time by a jury
composed of the voters of his own
neighborhood will be decided by time.
Throughout the entire campaign so
far most of the women of the district
have been against him, and their opposi-
ton has not been lcsscncd by the fact
that his managers have revived many
old scandals concerning members of
such families as do not now countenance
his candidacy. In return for these tao
tics ON his part an old scandal of a
financial nature, in which he figured as
principal, has been raked up against
him. In many places flags and banners
and transparencics bearing notices di-
rectly referring to the social signifi-
canoe of the campaign have been dis
played, and these have in several in
stances added greatly to the existing
tension. At one place flag inscribed
with the words, Protect American Wo-
manhood, was torn into small pieces
and tramplcd under foot by the crowd.
and this action, SO the telegraph states,
was participated i'll by some Of the wo-
men who were present.
Mr.. Owens. like Major Mcdowell, is
something of u turf devotee, and this
characteristic is held up rs being against
both OF them among the Methodists and
Prcsbyterians Of the district, who are
very numerous.
1t can be readily seen why the in
habitants of the Ashland district, no
matter what their preferences regard
ing the congressional domination may
be, are already tired of the present cam
paign. They are proud people, and
the charges and countcrchargcs that
| have been made and are sure to be made
later are likely to duplicate some whose
standing III society and public life has
always been unimpeached till now.
Very few of these charges - perhaps
none of thcm-will be proved. In fact,
they are and will be of a nature ex-
trcmcly difficult % suhstantiate But
they will be quite as difficult to disprove
and are certain to leave lasting stains,
whether true or not.
1t is this that excitcs approximations
of bloodshcd, for with regard to the So
cial honor of the women of his house
hold the Kentuckian has held from time
immemorial that the only thing that
will wipe out n stain is gore. II shoot
ing once begins there Is no telling
where it will end or for how many
generations the fcuds il cnGcnders will
last The fact that there arc yet rising
of two months to be lived through be
fore the holding of the Democratic con.

him later in life His father was n
prominent street railroad magnate, and
young Singerly displayed such shrewd-
ness in the management of his sire's
properties that he made n fortune His
father left him $3.50, 900 worth of street

In 1877 Mr.. Singerly bought the
Philadelphia Record. which, under his
management. became Successful and

in many enterprises and seems to pos

which fortune smiles upon him is shown
by his experience with the thorough

yearling. Frank Van Ness bought him
for -, $50 and sold n half interest in
him to Mr.. Singerly. As n 2-year-Old

takes but a mighty short time to do n
lot of very effective shooting and it is
matter for surprise, this year of blood
and disaster and rcprisals, that the she'd
ding of blood in the Ashland district
has been delayed so long.
The public is we'll informed regard
ing the pre-existing facts of the situa-
tion-the circumstances, that is, of the
legal contest i'll which he came Off Sec
ond best; that w. c. p. Brcckinridge,
the sitting member from the Ashland
district, had to go through, with Made
line Pollard for an opponent, and the
opposition that has developed against
him on social purity grounds. The pub
lie should also be aware of the fact
that down to the present time Demo
cratic nomination i'll the Ashland dis
trict has been equal to an election; that
the battle now raging is for the nomi
nation only, and that it is quite within
the bounds Of possibility that there may
be more than one Democratic nominee
this fall. If there Is. the fight for the
election will doubtless be harder one
than that for the nomination. Colonel
Breckinridges chief opponents i'll the
present fight arc Owens and Settle, the
first named being perhaps the more
prominent of the two.
William G. Owens Is u citizen of
Georgetown, KY, n town located about
60 miles from Lexington, the state cap
ital. He Is man who has already made
a record rs a public official, having serv-
ed many years in the state Legislature
and more than ono term as speaker of
the lower house Moreover, he is not
unknown outside of Kentucky, for Mt
the last national convention of the Dem
ocratic party he was made temporary
chairman and won praise by the digni-
fled manner with which he acquitted
himself ON that occasion. He is about
46 years of age, bachelor, and his
family, like the BrcckinridGc family, is
of the blue grass ariStocracy. He is n
lawyer with good practice and lib
eral income. His personal habits arc
indicated by those who know him when
they speak of him as "a free liver and
convivial spirit, but OF unsullied repu.
tation." When it is added that he plays
as stiff game of poker rs any man IN
the state, it will be clear to tho reader
undoubtedly that he is n typical Ken
lucky gentleman. Between him ant
Breckenridge there has long existed {
bitter personal feeling. and that fact nc
counts in some degree for tho cXtraordi
nary vigor which Mr.. Owens has in
fused into the present contest.

always been on terms of friendliness
with Breckinridgc, and they have spo-
ken from the same platform during the
present campaign. Mr.. Settles fight
has in many ways lacked much of being
as vigorous as Mr.. Owens. In his ad-
dresses Settle has been SO careful in the
matter of illusions to the Pollard scam
DIAL as to excite serious apprchensions
that his canvass is merely a blind in the
interests of tho colonel In other words,
it is claimed by some Owens men that
Settle does not hope to be nominated,
but does expect TO divide tho opposition
to BrecEinridge's nomination. and so
bring about the latter's success. OF
course this is Indignantly denied by Mr..
Settle and his friends, but this denial
does not appear to be taken as being
greatly significant, because it is n de-
NAL and not an admission that would
be put forth if the charges were true,
and nothing is added to its weight by
the fact that Breckinridge's friends are
quite as strenuous in voicing the denial
as arc Settles
