A TIME FOR SERIOUS
THOUGHT.

A question vital to the Demo-
cratic party confronts it today.
Theissue is the strict observance
of Sabbath laws and the temper
ance question. Governor Beck
ham stands squareIy, is committed
to the enforcement Of the Sunday
laws and pledged TO the temper
ance cause. Voter, what are you
for and how will you vote Noyem-
Der 6thl Be careful, be serious.
be sure you are right before cast
ing your ballot. The destiny OF
your beloved State for years way
down the future may be on the
balance now, and your vote may
break that balance.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1906-10-31
AMEN.

Rev. Mark Coils in the closing
paragraph of his sermon before
his Lexington audience on the
question of saloons said: Il may
have some saloon keepers present,
| would in no way hurt the feel
ings of any one of you. Many of
YOU are kind-hearted fellows. You
will feed the hungry and clothe
the naked. But that does not
atone for the awful wrong you are
doing the community in making
many more naked and hungry; in
running the young men of our
city; in breaking the hearts of
mothers and of fathers, and in
helping men on to everlasting per
dition. Let me entreat YOU to
think Of these things and to quit
this cruel business.
Another step would be to kecr
the lids on and to stand by and
vote into Office those people who
endeavor to do right at the risk OF
losing their political lives. -
would rather be right than Presi
dent is the true principle.

DESERVE THEIR PUNISH
MENT.

The murder of an inmate asylum
by employees of the institution is
horrifying. The trial of Pharris
and Adams at Lexington reveals a
degree of cruelty and heartlessness
not to be expected in civilized
community. Their conviction was
merited and possibly the sentence
was too mild. No doubt the SUI
perintendent of the asylum will
have his eyes opened to the de-
plorable condition of affairs.

Governor Beckhem Is an open

and is also seeking to enforce the
laws closing saloons on Sunday;
during the last session Of the Leg
stature, the Governor in all right
ways and on all proper occasions
lent mis- influence to the enact
ment of the County Unit Law and
il is unquestionable that without
this support Of the Governor,
these laws could not have been

tude of the Governor and on ac-
count of other legislation opposed
by the liquor interests. these in
terests have lined up solidly fol
the punishment Of the Governor.
They are ready to use enormous
sums of money and all strategy OF
which they are masters to accom-
pIish the defeat of Mr.. Beckham
for the Senatorial nomination.
This is not revenge alone; fai
more, it is persecution. Let it be
remembered that Gov. BeckhaH
is the first of Kentucky's Govern
ors to identify himself with the
temperance and reform move
ment and vigorously to antago
nize liquor lawlessness and a
