HIS CAMPAIGN OPENED
Bowman Spoke in the Court House Friday
Night Judge Young Had Something
TO Saw.

Frank Bowman Friday night at
the Court house opened his campaign
for the Democratic nomination for
Representative. When he began
speaking the crowd was slim, but as
he progressed a good many more
came in.
Mr., Bowman outlined his platform
as follows:
~ He was for Folk for United
States Senator, although if elected
he would vote for the choice of the
people.
~ He believed in the laws formu-
lated and enforced by Governor Folk,
including the primary election law,
which he said Judge William Young
did not endorse in full.
(3) He believed in honest politics
andin getting rid Of the bosses.
For several years, he said, he had
been charged with being a disturber
in the Democratic ranks and it had
been predicted in this campaign that
his candidacy would split wide open
the Democratic party in this county;
but he was a disturber only insofar
as he favored getting rid Of boss
rule. He referred to a letter which be
wrote to Judge E. S. Butt of Mayhem
early in the year and said that he
understood that a mar in Lexington
had that letter, which fact show ed
bossism.
IF I go. to the Legislature e." he
declared, 81 am going right and as a
white man.
He then read a lengthy editorial
condemning Senator Stone, which he
said Judge Young had written for the
Lexington News in 1902. He stated
that a man could not write such an
editorial and now be in favor of Stone
if he were honest and sincere.
He went on record as favoring the
enforcement of the local option law,
the submission of constitutional pro-
hibition to the people of the state,
the direct election of United States
Senators, the initiative and refer
endum.
Judge Young was present and spoke
up twice. The first time he denied
the assertion of Mr.. Bowman that he
had received 500, 600 as probate Judge.
The second time was after the end of
Mr.. Bowman's speech. Judge Young
then took the floor and stated that
The editorial Mr.. Bowman had read
lad never been published, but had
been suppressed by common consent.
He scathingly denounced Mr.. Bow
nan for making a deliberate mlsrep-
'esentation and left the room.
Mr.. Bowman then said that al
the editorial had not been
published, half Of it had been set up
it was suppressed only because

New Yorker Saw Beauty In Sign,
Where Maiden Lady Could Not.

A party OF tourists was being shown
around Ciudad Juarez, the little Mexi-
can town just across the Rio Grande
from FL Paso. Texas. Every one was
delighted with its picturesqueness,
and in particular a maiden lady. who
went into raptures about each new
sight.
1T Is all 80 quaint" she said, These
adobe houses, the old church, the mar.
row streets, the little plaza, those
dreadful,looking men wearing som.
broros; everything breathes the splr-
1t OF an old.world civilization, 1t Is
so different from our United States"
That's So" assented a New York
man who had been listening. For

you find anything SO antique, 81 full
OF inherent beauty 80 charged, us 1t

easy matter to give It up for good,

suffering with nervous headaches for
seven weary years. but kept drinking
coffee.
"One day ! asked her why she did
not give up coffee as q cousin OF mine
had done who had taken to Postum.
But Mother was such slave to coffee
she thought It would be terrible to
give It up.
Finally, one day, she made the
change to Postum, and quickly her
headaches disappeared. One morning
while she was drinking Postum SO
freely and with such relish asked for

and gave her some to take home, but
forgot to tell her how to make 1t.
THE next day she said she did not
see how could drink Postum. found
she had made 1t like ordinary coffee.
So I told her how to make It right
