CONN LINN
COMES VERY NEAR OCCUPYING
THE GOVERNORS CHAIR
FOR AWHILE.

Frankfort. Ky. Aug. 23.-Al-
though IL was some weeks ago that
Gov. Wilson went to Baltimore with
Mrs. Wilson. leaving the state I'M
expectedly. It has Just become known
here that at that time Kentucky
came close to having a Democrat In
the governors chair for a few days.
Conn Linn. of Murray, would have
been acting governor during the alb
sence Of Governor Wilson from the
state. II certain things had happen
ed. and 1t was only chance that they
did not.
Mr.. Linn il president pro TEN.
of the senate and the law says that II
the governor and the Lieutenant
governor shall be out OF the state at
the same time or shall both resign
or both die. the president pro TEN OF
the senate shall act as governor. Gov.
Wilson found he had TO go TO Bal
timore with Mrs. Wilson. lie start
ed out to locate Gov. Cox. and found
that the lieutenant governor was In
Atlantic City having a good time.
Gov. Wilson telegraphed Gov. Cox
and asked him II he could come to
Kentucky. Gov. Cox wired to know
how long Gov. Wilson would be out
OF the state. but the reply. only a
few days" did not reach Gov. Cox.
by some chance.
That is where Mr.. Linn lost out.
IL the last message had been re-
ceived by Gov. Cox and IL he had
known that Gov. Wilson would be
out of the state only couple OF days
Gov. Cox would have stayed in At
lantic City and let Mr.. Linn act as
governor. Gov. Cox said he thought
Gov. Wilson was going to be out OF
the state a week or more. or he
would not have broken up his vaca-
ton to come to Kentucky. Gov. Cox
said he would have been perfectly
willing. as he had confidence in Mr..
Linn and would have been satisfied
to let the reins of the state govern
ment be in Mr.. Inns hands.
What good story that would
have been, II It had happened, the
newspaper men here now fully APP
preciate. To have had a Democrat
acting as governor. during Repub-
lican administration. even though IL
was for only few days. would have
been of interest all over the coun-
try. II is not improbable that Mr..
Linn will have chance to act as
governor. however, before Gov. Will

Ragged is the garden with all the
summer flowers overblown and all the
autumn ones half bursting in rich
and reckless profusion. Ragged are
the fields with molly armies of weeds
and briars that choke the tender
grass and gadding vines. Ragged is
the orchard with sun-browned peach
trees and apples trees bent heavy
with half-green fruit. Ragged the

After all there are no other
growths so human as weeds They
cling to man and follow him all over

sets his foot. The Indians called the

tables seem to claim the land for

Eleanor Beckham has something
more to be proud OF than Just being
eight years old. She can say with
pride that she Is the only child ever
born in the old governors mansion,
or High street.
In all the history OF that historic
old place, the governors who care to
live there, all had grown children.
This fact was disputed several years
ago, a writer declaring that Mr..
Simon Bolivar Buckner was the first
child born in the mansion. Mr..
Buckner, however, was about two or
three years old when his father was
elected to the highest Office in the
grand old commonwealth.
II is possible, but hardly probable,
that another child will be born there
-as the next legislature Will, no
doubt, see "just cause and proyoca-
tion" to build a governors mansion,
more beautiful. more pretentious and
in a more desirable spot than the
present one.-State Journal, Frank
