After beating all the bushes in the
Safe for candidate for Governor,
the Louisville Post is coming around
to the common sense view of the
situation. 1t has evidently been
reading this little back woods sheet.
After referring to the charges made
by Bradley against the Democracy
of the State, and recounting the fact
that Mr.. Clay is falling in with tho
Bradley idea to beat Hardin, the
Post comes to this conclusion:
1--WE have one objection to Hardin,
and that is his silver fanaticism, but II
the Republicans are going to conduct
their campaign on the lines indicated by
Clay-and we think they are--Clay's
nomination would be surrender in adj
vance and Hardin's. to use the phrase
9 tile hour, is the logic Of the situa-
tiOn."
"Hardin is ready to answer Bradley,
to answer any one In the manner indi-
Gated. He would not allow the party
to be placed on the defensive. He
would apologize for nothing. lie has
not by i,nuendo or insinuation accused
any Democrat nor cor demned the pol
icy Of the party.
Hardin believes the party can be de-
Tended; can be successfully defended.
lie knows how baselcss are the ISLANDERS
Of the enemy. He has nothing to con-
ceal; nothing to be ashamed of. He
would enter the campaign confident,
courageous, aggressive.
About month ago, after hearing
both Clay and Hardin speak, the
PRESS said:
"If Republicans insist upon making
the Dick Tate matter, and state affairs
generally, the issue In the coming cam
paigd, the Democrats ought to nominate
Hardin and gladly take up the gauntlet
"The PRESS don't care straw whcth-
er the name Of the next Governor is
Hardin, Clay or Stone. or somebody
else. Just so he is sound Democrat
and all right above the eyes. But with
the opposition crying out mismaDage-

Gently built in Colorado. Everybody
who has ever seen a picture of a cliff
dweller's town Or Of pueblo village
knows what an adobe house is. The
adobe house is made of a peculiar
sticky mud and is always sun driei.
The bricks vary in size and are gener-
ally about 4 inches deep, 6 inches wide
and 16 inches in length, while the outer
walls of the adobe building proper vary
from 2 to feet in thickness. One old
mission in New Mexico boasts o. an
outer wall six feet in thickness.
CuriOusly enough, the exact recipe
for mixing this adobe is held as a Sc
cret by the Mexicans and half-breeds.
Not even have they disclosed the neces-
sary amount of hay or straw to make
up perfect adobe brick. Mayhap The
Egyptian told it to the Aztec and this
wonderful race to the ancestors Of the
present. The building of an adobe
house must necessarily be confined to
the months between May and August,
at least in Colorado, Arizona and New
Mexico, for frost is death to the I'LL
baked brick The adobe is prepared in
the old-fashioned way-that Of tread
ing-and when the mud is worked to
the proper consistency by the nervous
feet of the Mexican it is placed in molds
of the required size. The mortar is
also of mud, but dries quickly, and is
as solid as modern cement. Wealthy
