Much interest centers in the out
come of the municipal election in
Louisville, where owen Tyler, vice.
mayor under the Barth administra-
tion. seems to have successfully
avoided the real issue and made the
open town" his slogan. The real
issue in Louisville is the return to
power of the infamous gang of cleo
ton thieves and sluggers, which the
election of Mr.. Tyler assures. Even
those citizens, who sincerely believe
in what they term personal liberty, A"
should remember what Mr.. Tyler's
stands for. 1t is not the
man himself nor his policies, so
much as the crowd that has elevated
him to political prominence, that Is
a menace to the peace of Louisville.

LIMIT OF JAP IMMIGRANTS
BOUND 10 RUNITED STATES

Toxic. Oct. 3O.-A delegate from
the japanese residents OF San Fran
cisco interviewed Foreign Ministrr
Hayashi today and fully explained
conditions In that city relative to the
prejudice against japanese. He
pointed out that the feeling for ex-
clusion was directed against the uu-
desirable immigrant alone, and that
American employers welcomed hon
est japanese laborers. He requested
that the foreign office permit emigra-
ton of 900 honest emigrants month
ly through Seattle and San Francisco.
Minister Hayashi replied that at
present it was advisable to limit the
emigration to half that number. He
further assured the delegate that ev-
erything will be done to protect Jap
anese interests, and at the same time
the importance of stop
ping anything calculated to iniure
the traditional friendship of both
countries.
The government would hereafter,
he said, supervise the kind of emf
grants allowed to go out.

that candidates nomination. On the
other hand, all Democrats were cor
daily invited to participate. Now,
we learn, when It is too late, that:
Every voter who took part in the
recent Democratic primary in Padu-
cab at which Tom Harrison and his
associates on the Democratic ticket
were nominated. are under a sacred
pledge TO support the entire ticket at
the November election. Every man
who took part in that primary is pre-
sumed to know and to understand the
terms imposed upon him by going
into IT, No man who entered that
primary has a moral right to scratch
the municipal Democratic ticket, any
part Of the Democratic ticket, for by
going into it he gave an implied
pledge that he would support the
nominee Of that primary"
Surprising some great moral issue
Is up at a primary, and one candidate
represents one side of It. and another
candidate represents the other side
of It, Here is a man, good citizen
and a Democrat. He can not con-
scientiously vote in support of the
immoral side of the issue. nor can he
conscientiously support its candidate.
Above all else he wishes TO save his
party from taking that side. SO he
goes to the primary and votes against
the domination OF his party by i'm
moral policies and immoral men. He
is defeated, either by chicanery or by
a real majority of the votes. BY thus
taking part in the primary, his obli-
cation to his country. to his neigh
bors and to his own soul, is not salts
fed. He can not conscientiously then
vote in favor Of those evils, when an
other political party has opposed
them with a candidate and policies.
that are identical with those he voted |
for at the primary. He has not done
his full duty as a citizen when he
votes in the primary.
He did not vote in the primary,
because he Intended to vote that
ticket at the election. He voted be-
cause he was a Democrat, had sup
ported the ticket in the past, and. all
things being equal, would support ii
in the future; but his freedom as
sovereign citizen was not surrendered
to the politicians that happened, at
the primary. to carry away the plums.
He still has the right to vote as he
pleases. He still owes the duty to
his country and himself to vote for
the men and the policies that are
best for the country.
There can be no honest difference
OF opinion on this subject. II the
Democratic party adopts as a princi-
pal the theory that man, who enters
into a primary election. must sup
port the whole ticket, then a warning |
should be duly published to that
effect before the primary, instead OF
an invitation to all Democrats to take
part. The result of such course. is
The vote would be linn
tied to the yellow dog" element Of
the party.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

Hereafter If any Democrat in Pa
ducah desires to reserve to himself
the rights of a free American citizen
to vote for whom he pleases for local
Offices, he is warned by the party
organ to stay away from the primary.
Unlike any other party nomination,
the one conducted In Paducah implies
an obligation on the voter to support
the ticket, even II he has to violate
every obligation OF good citizenship,
morality and decency to do it. In
other cities, We have heard of the
obligation being specifically imposed
on candidates at primary to sup
port the ticket, IL they are defeated;
but we never before heard of the
voters being thus bound and gagged.
Indeed, the specific obligation i'm
posed on the candidates, rather dis.
poses us to the opinion that no such
Implied obligation rests on the voters
Else why should the candidates be
required to make such an agreement?
We had supposed any Democrat
Who voted that ticket the year be-
fore. was considered a Democrat and
entitled to take part in the primary,
convention. caucus or whatever
method Of nominating is employed.
A primary was held in Padueah last
spring. and no one was warned be-
fore the city primary that he could
not vote unless he intended to sup

have the most at stake refuse to see
the handwriting on the wall. ssuch
