Beckliam's Boom.

The session hadn't closed before
Haly and other friends OF the COVER
nor were declaring that he should lie
a Nandidate two years hence against
McCreary. In fact, at the banquet
given in honor of the election of
Paynter. several of the speakers
touched upon the splendid victory
and predicted that Senator Paynter
would hardly get accustomed to his
surroundings In the senate at Wash
lngton before he would have the pleas
ure Of presenting Senator Beckham
to the bar to be sworn in as a mem
Der of that body
The campaign to land Beckham in
the senate was far more strenuous
one than was the Paynter fight. Nc
Creary had been more closely in
touch with the party in Kentucky
through, as Gov. Beckham said in
one of his campaign speeches, the
"judicious distribution of govern
ment pamphlets and garden seed
and with his great wealth, was a
live candidate. He gathered to his
support the Blackburn faction and
all OF the disgruntled element which
must come as result Of half dozen
years spent by one man In the ex-
ecutive Office, and the disappoint-
ments which will come to many as
pirants in that time. Added to this
was the. further fact that the COM
pact organization which made the
Paynter fight was broken up by the
candidacy of several OF its members
and their interest in other candidates

Herman Newcomb. the Louisville
candidate. Realizing that this would
be the entering wedge in the senator
ial fight against Blackburn. he ald
those with him devoted all of their
energies TO electing to the speaker
ship Henry II. Lawrence. young
newspaper editor of Trigg county.
The Blackburn faction put forward

deceased, and one of the brightest
members of the session preceding.
With the power of the state admir-
stration behind him. II was a fore
gone conclusion to all but Mr.. Mil
ler's advisers that Lawrence would
win. The vote of Louisville was re-
lied upon by Blackburn to land his
candidate in the speakers chair. The
Blackburn campaign failed and Law
renee won. The senatorial contest
following was just as complete vic
tory for the administration, and. as
said at the beginning Of this article.
the first man whose hand Judge Payn
ter grasped. and the man to whom
he uttered the words of thanks. was
Gen. Haly. The victory of this ses-
sion was more complete through the
election of commissioner to control
the state prisons and reform schools.
and the creation OF a board of control
for taking charge of the charitable
institutions of the state. To the pres
dency Of this new board Gov. Beck
ham appointed Gen. Haly, as an evil
dence of his ability and his conf
dence in him.

-Daytona, Fla, Jan. 25.-The outlook for good
racing at the Ormond- Daytona races is poor to-
day In addition to bad weather conditions
with light rain falling, four Of the leading
there was danger that they would not be able
to make repairs in time to start Az
The blowing out OF the cylinders of F1etcher's
car was the worst OF these breakdowns and It
was reared that he might not be able to race
during the remainder Of the meeting. Lancia
and Christie were busy repairing their cars,a and
the Vanderbilt car, which has not yet started,
lacked the finishing touches to put it in racing
trim.
Hemery's suspension which still continued in
force, was felt as loss to the interest and
excitement IN the races On today's program
there were eight events as follows:

Fifteen miles handicap for American touring
cars, fully equipped.
Ten miles, Corinthian championship

finished went under the, former record.
In the second heat of the fve-mile open cham

Buying Cars Early.

The automobile buyers are placing
their orders with the local dealers much
earlier than heretofore, especially for
the larger touring cars In seasons
past, more particularly last season, few
orders were placed before the Chicago
automobile show, which occurs early in
February. and the rush of orders then
placed with, the factories was SO large
that many were disappointed in deliv-
cries. All of the large touring cars as
well as many of the smaller ones are
being shown at the local garages and
business has been most encouraging to
the dealers. The Moulton-J Jordan Motor
Car Co. made sales at the New York
Show for three large Peerless cars to
George G. Christian, j. B. Gilfllan and
w. a. Ramsey, the two former ordering
in addition to the touring cars, limous-
inc bodies for fall and winter use. The
same company have made sales this
week to +. T. Heffelfnger and Russell

and to John Bovey and R. B. Shute Of
