Democratic Candidate For Legislature
States Views On Local Issue

Mr.. Editor Owing to persistent
runors that / haye withdrawn from
the Democratic primary Legislative
contest, | wish to state this publicly
particularly to all Democrats, that
such report is not true, and that shall
be d factor until the count shall show
whether the Democrats OF White Clay
Greek Hundred desire me 10 be their
color bearer n the coming campaign
Also, the issue has been raised that
favor sewer system for our town,
and for that reason ! should be defeat
ed at the primaries, as i'll the event OF
being elected Representative | would
lie an obstacle i'll the way Of those
who @oAld ail the movement now TAX
ing shape, 10 better the sanitary con
tilinn.
1t is true that | do favor a sewer sys-
tem or some iurIn Of ssntatlOn that is
always desirable in an active growing
town the size Of ours.
1t is also true that il the PROPOSE
ton mate-ia,izes TO the extent of 60
ing before our Legislature, our Rep
resentatIve. III case there should be
municipal contention, would be in a
posti II to radically influence legisla-
ton relating threeto.
Perhaps II would not be ON of place
at this point, to say that TO neglect
our manifest duty along this line a
few years longer, is to endangcr cur
material prosperity and progress, as it
is already endangering the fair name
of the town we all love so well. the
place of our homes. Our city water
IS pronounced pure, our food supply
has not been questioned, but the satu-
ration OF the soil and the condition Of
the cutters i'll and about the town
are, to say the least, highly in evi-
dence. The shortsighted and shallow
arguments put forth that sewer sys-
TEN would increase rents is without
reason as matter of fact the expense
entailed upo nowners of property by
the necessity of cleaning closets and
cesspools, represents the interest on
a larger sum OF money than the pro
rata property assessments needed TO
install sanitation system would be,
to say nothing of improved health
conditions. But suppose, for the time
being that there should be small in
crease in rents by reason of contem-
plated Improvements. is it not more
than compensated for by the increased
immunity from serious illness?
The man who opposes sewers is as
liable to be victim as the man who
favors them in which case he must
meet doctors and nurses bills of fifty
to one hundred dollars more or per-
haps an undertaker's bill of a like
amount, besides sorrow of heart

Kalamazoo, Mich. May 1S.-En-
Enthusiastically defending Taft, to
whom he referred as "the president
who doesn't try to deceive the peo-
ple," Vice-President Sherman open
ed the congressional campaign here
today. He said: Taft has moved
steadily forward in the path of duty.
Without reflection on his predecess-
or, may say he is less spectacular,
and is bringing about in a quiet
way, without friction. many reforms
in the government which the reports
of the departments will show"
Sherman declared the election of
a Democratic house would not be
a liquidation of the recent tariff
law, but OF the Republican doctrine
of protection. He said. We've en-
tered a national campaign to control
the next house. The tariff law, un-
der which We are now operating. will
be the principal issue of the cam
patgn. Were II thoroughly under
stood, and not misjudged, the con-
tinued Republican supremacy would
be assured. A Republican majority
will be construed as an endorsement.
A Democratic majority will mean

POPULATION OF
PADUCAH WILL Be
INCREASED 5000
Tip Out That Census will
Show Not Less Than
$4,000 People
School Census and Directory
Corroborate.
TWO THOUSAND WEST OF CITY.

Paducah's population will show an
increase of 5000. or gain of 500
annually since the last census was
taken While the enumerators are
commanded to silence. this tip reach
ed the street today from a reliable
source, that the enumerators, eleven
census, would average $500 names
apiece. giving the city a population
Of approximately 27,50O. The last
census gave the city 22,464.
The school census shows an in
crease of 21S in the scholastic popu-
lation over last year and "a fewer
vacant houses. while the Caron direc-
tory solicitors report that they are
finding fewer vacant houses than
they did two years ago. They make
no forecasts and their estimates are
compiled after the copy is prepared
for the book at Louisville; but they
have no hesitancy In saying Paducsh
will show a substantial gain in popu-
lation over last year. This company
always figures the population more
coneervatively than do rival con-
Germs.
An average increase of 500 an
nually In decade. in which a severe
panic occurred. and when no special
boom was experienced. is more than
the most optimistic citizens had ex-
pected. and many declare they will
be surprised n the figures reach a.
600. especially astonishing will be
the fact. when Il Is considered that
the greater part of Padueah's more
recent growth has been westward and
outside the corporate limits. II is es-
timated that the failure OF the gen
'eral council 10 extend the city limits
westward has cheated the city out of
not less than 1000 population, to
which she is Justly entitled In the
census Considering the densely set
tied communities on the west cor
poration line. Paducah may easily
claim her 10000 population, when
the census reports are made public.
