BOWLING GREEN MESSENGER.

The Messenger is not in the
business of boasting any parti-
cular candidate for office, nor are
its editorial columns for sale.
But we are constrained to re-
mark that it is a hopeful sign for
the state Democracy when so
many good men are offering for
places on the state ticket. We
notice in the current issue of the
Adair County News that Hon.
James Garrett has announced
his candidacy for the office of At
torney-General.
This office has not always, and
if we must say it, rarely, been
filled by the most competent
lawyer. 1t should be held by a
man who can cope with the best
Of the lawyers of the state, for
the Attorney-General is elected
to represent the states interest.
He is the peoples hope often
against corporate trust and pri-
vate greed. He should be able
to stand up before the hired
spokesman of the persons and
corporations who are expecting
to get the best of it.
While not committing this pa
per to the the candidacy of Mr..
Garnett, as an honest journal,
the Messenger desires to say for
him that he is yonng. energetic,
honest, intelligent and the peer
of any lawyer in the state in
point of ability.

Attorney General.
TAYLOR COUNTY INQUIRER:

The Democracy of Taylor coun-
ty is pleased to learn that our
neighbor, Adair, will offerN the
name of James Garrett to the
Democrats of Kentucky for the
nomination for Attorney General.
Jim Garrett needs no introduce
ton to the voters of this section
and will no doubt receive the un-
qualified endorsement and in
struction of this, as we'll as other
parts of the State. He will GER
tainly be the choice of those who
are anxious to see a good, clean,
straight ticket named. He has
been at the service of his party
in all the campaigns since he
reached his majority, has been a
faithful servant in the places of
honor and trust given him. In
all cases he has remained true to
his party and supported her NOM
inees and will bring no little
strength to the State ticket. He
is capable as a lawyer and fitted
by nature and experience to fill
the office of Attorney General in
way to reflect credit on his ma
tive heath, his party and the
Commonwealth. While he is in
every sense a democrat in all it
implies, yet he would be public
official that would lay aside obi
cations to party and adhere un-
f1inchingly to truth, right and
honesty-an impartial servant of
his State, looking after the well
fare of all her citizens.
Let us hope the State ticket
will be made up of nominees like
this that will appeal to all classes,
that will present the Democratic
party united, not only to win;
but to win and bring honor to
our State for the manner in
which the public affairs are adj
ministered. We say
For Attorney General
JAMES GARNETT,
of Adair.

This editorial Is a statement OF fact
with the exception that names are
changed. for good reasons.
John Smith was, and Is, good
average citizen.
He was born on farm, and laid the
foundation for his education In the
typical little red school house on the
hill
Then he was sent TO college-and
sowed a few wild oats. but was SEN
sible enough not to spend any great
length of time at this foolish occupa-
, ton.
John Smith returned to his home
and in ten years was the leading
lawyer at the county seat
Here, when he had worked up his
practice TO safe point, he married
the sweetheart OF his school days.
And in two more years-the Little
Red Cart.
But the owner OF the red cart died
after two years OF baby life, during
which John, junior, was loved as fond
fathers and fonder mothers ever Will
love interesting babies.
whereupon John Smith, leading at
torney. began to drink, also TO pay
undue attention 10 several giddy
young women in his town who did not
seem to feel any very keen pangs be-
cause fingers were scornfully pointed
at them. or because Mrs. Smith failed
to recognize them on the street.
Is Il necessary to put down In cold,
unresponsive type that Mrs. Smith
was heartbroken? Is there any use

THE LITTLE RED CART

trying to describe her anguish? Her
baby was dead; her husband had de-
veloped traits Of character unbeliev-
able In so good a man; she knew that
his law practice was dwindling; she
had signed a mortgage on their home.
But she kept the Little Red Cart
and many nights when her husband
was absent from home she fell at last
into restless sleep, holding the pitiful
remainder OF happiness on her knees.
At o'clock one morning Lawyer
Smith returned to his home. Mrs.
Smith had long since ceased waiting
for him
He stumbled. and fell, but that was
not unusual.
He cursed, but that was not un'
usual
Then the curses stopped and all
was still.
The wife OF the man who had fallen
into less clean ways crept from her
room. There she saw in a broad shaft
of moonlight, her husband, on prayer
full knees, holding up the Little Red
Cart, in unsteady hands. His lips
were moving, mutely at first; but
presently she heard the words:
please help me, Father. for the
sake OF the little man who used TO
play with this cart. and for the sake
of my wife who bore him"
Mrs. Smith, a radiant happiness on
her face, softly went tiptoed back to
her room, for she knew that prayer
and her prayer would be answered.
