JUDGE BARRY FOR OLLIE JAMES

JUDGE BARRY FOR OLLIE JAMES
Hon. e. Barry, editor of the Ben
ton Tribune-Democrat, is the first
Democrat to "come to-" and he
sounds the call in Marshall county
for Ollie James to assume the leader
ship Of Kentucky Democracy.
In an editorial this week he says:
After the smoke OF battle has
cleared away and we have had time
to take stock and try to see where
we are at 1t seems that the uni
versal verdict of the Democrats of
the state, that we must have a re-
organization of our party, and on dis
tinctly Democratic lines.
There is no other Democrat in
the state. that comes so near filling
the ideal, of Democratic leader as
ollie James. He is not machine
Democrat. Neither Is he an anti
machine Democrat.
"He is simply and truly Demo-
crat; one who stands near to the
heart of the people. He Is a man
of the people and fully recognizes the
intelligence and the rights of the
great mass of the common people.
He has a national reputation and as
much influence in congress as any
member of that body. And when 1t
comes TO the state of Kentucky, he
is known from Catlettsburg to Hick-
man, as the biggest and best Demo-
crat in the state. With Ollie James
as leader and organizer; with able,
clean and aggressive young Demo-
Gratis that he can call around him
from every part of the state; with
the advice and encouragement he
would receive from the old Demo-
cratic heroes of many successful
campaigns, he would rally all the
Democratic hosts of the state and
present a solid front to the enemy.
that would overwhelm them in de-
feat and put them to route in the

WAS THE STAKE THE SENATOR
SHIP OR THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY7

II would seem from Louisville and
Frankfort dispatches that the Dem
ocratic state machine has still some
thing to learn about the will of the
people" and that sort OF thing. No
one doubts that the Democrats of
Kentucky, through its representatives
In the legislature, are bound by the
primary year ago to send Governor
Beckham to the United States SEN
ate, regardless of where they would
like to send him now. But that OBJ
legation goes no further. The Frank
fort machine was repudiated in its
every ramification by the vote No
vember 5. That Governor Beckham
was saved by sheer luck in some in
stances and by grace of a gerryman-
der In others, does not even anchor
ate the verdict of the people, and
particularly OF the Democratic peo-
pie.
They demand. not only a change
of party administration at Frank
fort, but a change of leadership in
the state, and In the Legislature. Yet
we observe signs that the state adj
ministration is working TO organize
the legislature, by choosing the
speaker OF the house and the presi-
dent pro tenn of the senate, and Civ
ing the latter authority to name
committees.
That is going. further, perhaps,
than the Democratic members OF the
legislature will authorize. Those
Democrats, who held their seats in
the legislature. are much chastened.
They realize that it is up TO them to
make good, not by adherence to
repudiated organization, but by at
tending to the peoples business, and
they will have a state Administered
zion with them, actuated by the same

blushing mendacity. Il am always at
your command"
l had received letter from Mrs.
Bowser setting forth that was wanted
at the house Of Doddridge Knapp, and
her prolixity was such that l was I'M
able to determine whether she or Mrs.
Knapp or Luella wished to see me.
But as all three appeared TO be con.
cerned in II pocketed pride and re-
sentiment, and made my bow with
some nervous quavers at the Pine
Street palace.
AS was speaking cast my eyes
furtively about the room. Mrs. Knapp
interpreted my glance.
she will be in presently" There
was to my ear trace OF mocking
laughter in her voice as she spoke, but
her face betokened only a courteous
interest.
'Thanks-I hope So" said in lit
tie confusion. I wished knew wheth-
er she meant Luella OF Mrs. Bowser.
You got the note7" she asked.
1T was a great pleasure"
Mrs. Bowser wished So much to
see you again. She has been singing
your praises-you were such an agree
able young man."
/ cursed Mrs. Bowser in my heart.
Il believe there was some arrange
ment between you about trip to see
the sights OF Chinatown. Mrs. Bowser
was quite worried for fear you had
forgotten II, so | gave her your adj
dress and told her to write you a
note"
l had not been conscious OF expect
ing anything from my visit, but at this
bit OF information / found that had
been building air-castles which had
been invisible till they came tumbling
about my ears. / could not look for
Miss Knapps company on such an ex-
petition.
"Oh," said !. with an attempt to con-
ceal my disappointment "the matter
had slipped my mind. l shall be most
happy to attend Mrs. Bowser. or to see
that she has a proper escort"
We had been walking about the
room during this conversation, and at
this point had come TO an alcove.
where Mrs. Knapp motioned me TO a
seat.
Il may not get chance 10 talk with
you alone again this evening" she con-
tinued, dropping her half-bantering
tone, "and you come so little now.
What are you doing?"
Keeping out of mischief"
YES, but how?" she persisted. you
used to tell me everything. Now you
tell me nothing"
"Mr. Knapp's work" began.
"Oh, Of course. don't expect you
to tell me about that. l know Mr..
Knapp. and you're as close-mouthed
as he, even when he's away"
Il should tell you anything Of my
own, but Of course, anothers-"
Il understand" Mrs. Knapp. sitting
with hands elapsed in her lap. gave
me a quick look But there was
something else. You were telling me
about your adventures. you remember
You told me two or three weeks ago
about the way you tricked Darby
Meeker and sent him to "Serria City"

RECIPROCITY With France
DELAYED UNTIL LATE FALL
Recent Agreement Entered Into
With Germany Re-
sponsible.

Washington, Aug BIT is said, at
the state department that developments
in the matter of the conclusion of the
new reciprocity arrangements between
American and France are not expected
in the near future, or indeed until well
along into the fall. It is even possible
that the projected new arrangement
will not be signed this year. So much
public interest has been excited by the
German American reciprocity arrange
ment concluded last J inc that it may
be deemed advisable by the administra-
ton authorities to allow congress at
the next session to expires its opinion
upon general extension of the exist
ing reciprocity arrangements before
submitting to that body any new ar
engagements other than that with Ger
many. AS a matter of fact that ar
rangemcnt would not necessarily come
before congress- a section three of the
Dingley act authorizes the executive
branch of the government to make such
arrangements without reference to the
senate or congress, But in the case
of the new German arrangement in
addition to the changes already made
in the customs regulations in this
country, substantial notifications of the
administrative features of the existing
Dingley tariff act have been promised
to Germany, and this promise cannot
be redeemed except by the act of con
gress, so that the subject is sure TO
come to the fore early in the approach
ing session, with the possibility OF pro
Voking long tariff debate.
