MENT.
The Courler-Journai thinks western
Kentucky lacks a wholesome senti-
ment'. Newspapers are responsible
to a great degree for public sent

immediate vicinity; but The Sun
charges that the Democratic press Of
the Purchase, where IL has not OPEN

has encouraged 1t, Willingly or I'M
Willingly, first by failing to speak out
against lawlessness when 1t appeared:
secondly by publishing prejudiced
articles; thirdly by suppressing and

forcement Of exact Justice, which the
Courier-Journal says would indicate
wholesome sentiment.
The Sun, and then the Louisville
papers, dragged the ugly truth to the
light in the face Of the denial of little
local papers. II was not until SOL
diers came and the information was
widespread that the western Ken
lucky press was forced to give even
partial news OF the outrages.
Now the Courier-Journal charges
that 'The failure OF local officers
TO apprehcnd and convict night rid.
crs has been due entirely TO the alb
sence of determination upon the part
of officers TO administer the law. cou-
pied with an absence of a wholesome
sentiment upon the part of majority
Of the citizens to see II enforced"
We disagree with the Courer-Jour-
nal. The majority is not entirely
lacking in that Wholesome senti-
ment" but the majority has been
permitting night rider dominated pri-
maries TO name its ticket and then
voting for II. It Is not necessary that
majority Of party membership

THE, LESSON FROM DUN's RE.
VIEW.

Dun's Review OF Saturday says:
Substantial progress toward indus
trial recovery was made during the
past week, a very large number OF
wage earners resumlng work in the
mills. Yet the resumption was By 20
means uniform many undertakings
being deferred until after the elec-
ton"
Let US aBalyze that A worldwide
panic has had us IN its grip for q year
but the United States is recovering
first and evidences OF recovery have
been manifest since early spring. No
-one has doubted the resumption. Dur.
Ing the panic prices held up. wages
remained up and farm products actu-
ally have advanced. The principal
n not the only effect on trade, was
the sudden determination OF an tx
trayagant people TO cconomize and
difficulty In collections. a difficulty
that H. just now aggravated b. defer
rcd Gales OF tobacco IN this section.
Now with resumption taking place
and rorkiDgmen resuming their old
employment at the American wage
scale. isn't that evidence that
conditions for resumption are

Can you afford to risk him right at
this juncture?
What does he advocate? Cutting
down the tariff, regardless OF every
thing. He favors compelling a man
who controls the 25 per cent Of a
product, and that includes inventors
to take out a government license. and
compelling him to stop when he con-
trolls so per cent OF the product. To
do that a system OF federal espionage
would be necessary; for no man would
voluntarily limit himself. What

He favors guaranty OF deposits in

a reckless fellow entered the banking

more on deposits than a good banker

Bryan fayors a law prohibiting a

He doesn't say anything about pre-
