Republican Candidate A. E. Will
son opened his gubernatorial cam
paign at Maysville Monday, speaking
to fair crowd. His speech was an
aggressive attack on the Democratic
administration, abusive at times,
and it is evident that a strong effort
is going to be made to get the sup
port of disgruntled Democrats. He
attempted to straddle the prohibition
question. In addition to MIR. Wilson
and Senator Cox, there were present
a number of the other candidates on
the state ticket, including Dr.. Ben
Bruner, candidate for Secretary of
State; Judge James Breathitt, of
Hopkinsyille, candidate for Attorney
General, and ]. G. Crabbe, of Boyd,
candidate for Superintendent of
Public Instruction.

ASSOCIATION ALL RIGHT.

The Dark Tobacco Association is
Meeting the expectations of the
people and putting itself squarely
on the side of law and order. The
District committee at Guthrie, the
county committee of Christian and
that Of Montgomery county, have
all gone on record and if the wishes
of the association are carried out,
we shall soon hear no more of night
riding.
Nearly everybody is joining the
association because the prices are
better inside than out and if the ir-
responsible element that is in it can
be controlled, the organization will
become a permanent blessing to
every grower Of tobacco. Then any
defect can be corrected and all
viii be well. It's the aqitators,
the boycotters and raiders who are
cansing all the trouble, Send them
10 the rear and let's pull together for
good order and a good organization.

following resolutions were unani-

our attention that Hon. Malcolm

ties in his state, by offering rewards
and assistance to the various county
and district officers; and has called
upon Hon. ]. c. w. Beckham, gov
ernor of Kentucky, to cooperate
with him in his efforts.
And whereas, certain newspapers
and various citizens have assumed
that members of the Tobacco associ-

various depredations committed in

to hold the farmers organization res
