WARNING
To Democrats They Cannot Af-
ford To Defeat County
Unit Bill By Gag Rule
Says Mayor Of
Richmond.

Ex-Mayor Clarence E. Woods, in a
letter to the Frankfort State Journal,
warns the Democrats in the Legislature
against the folly of tying their own
hands by passing a "two-thirds rule
that will throttle legislation of every
character not acceptable to the autocra-
tic Rules Committee He says:
"If the Democratic party, with our
overwhelming majority, again thus ties
its hands in the State Senate by two
thirds rule and again denies to the peo-
pie of Kentucky the right to vote as the
Constitution provides upon the burning
County Unit question, to which both
parties stand sacredly committed, and
shall nominate a candidate for Cover
nor not in perfect sympathy with such
legislation, shall feel it my duty to
refuse to support such a man. but |
shall take the stump for Judge O'Rear
from the Big Sandy to the Purchase
"And / believe that the greatly out
ragged, long-suffering and misrepresent-
ed temperance element of the Dem
ocratic party, whose tickets / have
never yet scratched, will equally as en-
Enthusiastically support that able, stain
less, courageous and consistent jurist as
a merited rebuke to the Linns and the
Combs and all such Democrats who be-
tray the wishes of the yeoman Demo
cracy to do the bidding of the unspeak-
able John Whallen, of Louisville, and
the ruinous politics and rotten policies
for which he stands.
while yet the light holds out to burn,
yet my Democratic party friends, who
we'll know l speak the truth, throw
themselves into this breach, take the
reins of legislation into their own hands
and scourge from Kentucky's new and
yet unpolluted capitol those who would
therein combine again for purpose so
transparent, to defeat the will of the
people by rules at once so un-Democra-
tic, un-Republican and un-American ."

The call of the sick and suffering found
a ready response in her heart, and even
when her physical strength would hard
ly admit of it, she ministered unto
them. Among the sorrowing and dis
tressed, she was a veritable angel of
mercy and there are few homes in
Hardinsburg that have not known her
sympathy, love and kindly deeds. In
her every day life and walk and the
manifold relations she sustained to
others she exemplified the christians
virtues.

continue her work, her place can not
be filled. Though dead, her influence
still lives; though she herself has
passed away, the work of her life still
endures in the lives and hearts of

In the selection of seed, he contin-

corn having long kernels affords the
best means of producing "A corn-ear

selecting long kernels quality must
not be overlooked. Frequently the
quality of kernel is very poor on ears

shaped kernels are those of good

the least space unoccupied"
