Plea for Boy Graduates

. j
In the fuss and furry made over the
sweet girl graduate the boy who gradu-
.ates at the same time is hardly getting
the attention which he deserves. In the.
years 10 come. If he does his duty. he
will earn money for the support of the
girl, who during the present month Is
the center Of all eyes. He will be
elected to the city council and possibly
to congress; he Will preach the gospel
and practice law: he Will start a fac
tory or open business In large de-
gree the future welfare of the country
will depend upon his intelligent and
honest activity. The prejudice against
the college graduate which never had
a sound foundation in fact, is gradual-i
ly disappearing. He has shown his
force in almost every department of
life. until it has come To be admitted
that the so-called self made man does
not hold monopoly of all the brains
and energy in the country. So. while
all will unite in drinking toast to the
maiden In her{white frock and blue rib
bons. similar IL not an equal honor is
due TO the newly made bachelor of arts.
The college man of today knows as well
as any one can tell him that all his flu
ture success depends most largely upon
L his own unaided efforts The world is
his apple and his education is simply
| the knife With which he must peel 1t.

since his election. He seems fairly en-

charge his democratic opponents might
find it expedient to bring against him.
He has said that he dared not take the
chance Of getting Justice from the Ken

them seems reasonable. Meanwhile, for
the time being. he is an exile from his
home. broken in health. impoverished
and distressed. a victim of political
rascality with which he could not con-

has done well to accept the decision OF
the courts and retire, but in due time
and somehow republican government in
Kentucky must be restored, and the
will of the people must rule again.
