can win is when he is elected on a.
ticket without opposition, and this was
the case of w. N. Cook, county judge
OF Allen County, who went into Office

with silver spoon in his mouth, for
he has always been fortunate. having

has been honored time and again with
other political offices.

lican, he has been regarded as very
conservative one, with apparently lit
tie interest in politics until his elec
tion last fall, by a combination of Re-
publicans and disgruntled Democrats.
Even then he regarded his chances OF
election so remote that he did but
small part in the canvass.
For many years he has been in the
hemp buying ard manufacturing Dusi-
ness and has accumulated quite a for
tune. Judge Scott has absolutely no
official training unless his service as
a member of the Board of Aldermen
of this city be taken into considera-
tion. Mayor Thomas A. Combs,
Democrat, appointed him to the posi-
tlon, giving as his reason that he
needed him as an adviser in the busi-
ness and financial matters of the
city-a statement that was used by
the Republicans for all that it was
worth during the last campaign.
Those who know Judge Scott best
claim that he is consecrated to duty
and predict that while his administre-

none of the arts of the politician and
is generally regarded as a cold propo-
sition.
A FORTUNATE JUDGE.
Last August DR.. J. d, Fitzpatrick was
nominated for county judge of Letcher
County, over his protest, and although
he was a strong Democrat and the
county is 500 Republican majority, he
was elected in the November election.
That was his first step into political
life, for he has always been devoted to
his medical profession and has good
practice at Whitesburg.
JAN IDEAL AND LOYAL JUDGE.
It will be hard matter to say too
many good things about Hon. A. w.
Pickerill SO think the people of LaRue
County, and no one could censure
them because he is truly an eXtraordi-

Politically Judge Benton is a Demo
crat, and he has always taken an ac-
tive interest in the affairs of the party.
In April. 1902, he was appointed cir
cult Judge by Gov. Beckham to fill the
vacancy occasioned by the death of
Judge Thomas J. Scott. In 1903 he
was elected to the full term without
opposition. In 1909 he was renomi.

in the judicial history of the State

Distinguished
Judges
By A. Louise Babbage.

In the one hundred and ten counties
in Kentucky a king could put his
crown on the heads of, at least,
score of reliable just judges, who have
perfect executive ability and are
pleasing the people for whom they are
acting as public servants.
MOUNTAIN JUDGE.
A typical mountain man, strong in
character, honest and upright, is Hon.
b. A. Fuson, Judge of Bell County
Court He stands in the front rank Of
the judges of our State. Since his
election last November he has taken
firm stand for the good of Bell Coun-
ty and the rights of his people. One
,kpf the best moves which has been
made for this county for years is the
recent purchase of the farm and the
establishment of the County Infirmary
for the poor, which was due TO Judge
Fusons influence. This will shut OFF
one of the largest revenues of graft
known in that section of the state.
DETERMINATION
NEVER FAILS.
Determination is the secret of sue
cess declares Judge r. r. Wedding,
who made two races for the nomina-
ton of county judge of Ohio County
before he gained the coveted distinc'
ton, and his election to the office of
county Judge came as easy as falling
off a log. He has been prominent in
politics for twenty-five years. and has
shown himself eminently qualified in
every way as presiding officer for the
Fiscal Court of his home county.
Judge Wedding is a lawyer of high
standing.
HONOR IN
HIS OWN COUNTY.
A prophet receives honor save in
his own country, but Judge Robert
Lee Stout, county judge of Woodford
County, has proved fact contrary to
this proverb. He is a bluegrass man
from the crown of his head to the
soles of his feet. having been born and
reared in Woodford County. which is
the birthplace of his parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Robert II. Stout, who are still
living. Judge Stout's political career
began in 1898, when he was elected
city attorney of Versailles, the county
seat, and ever since he has climbed
steadily to the throne.

A SUCCESSFUL POLITICIAN
OE GRAY SON.

Judge C.. w. Clagett, who is now
serving his second term of Office for
Grayson County, is fifty-six years old.
He was born and reared in the same
county, and lived on a farm until
elected county judge in 1905. He
served the county as sheriff three
terms.
His first term as judge was most
satisfactory to the people, and he was
again elected in November, 1909. upon
the Democratic ticket, as he is an un-
compromising lifelong Democrat. He
is a staunch Cumberland Presbyterian
and stands high in social, political and
religious circles.
w. r. sHAcKELFoRD
A PLEASURE TO ALL.
w. r. Shackelford, the county Judge
of Madison County, was elected to
that office in November, 1909, and as.
sumed the duties thereof on January
3. 1910. Judge Shackelford, being hui
man, has faults, but these are over
shadowed by his virtues; from know
ing him, one comes to love MIN, and
his virtues stand ont so prominently
that his faults disappear into nothing
ness. He may sometimes make mis-
takes of judgment-though his judi
cial career furnishes few instances OF
such. He will never be aught but true
and just to litigant. or to one who
has claims of any sort on mis- consid
Grafton, and he never lacks the cour-
age to maintain and defend his convic-
tions, and contend for what he te
lieves to be right and just.

popular man and just Judge. Misses

LIVES ON
OLD STAMPING GROUND.

ment is Judge George William Coul
ter, of Danville, Boyle County. JudIv
Coulter is in his fifty-eighth year OF
age and has spent his life in Boyle
County on farm. He is now living

ity until 1897, when he was elected
high sheriff for two terms, then judge
of the county-the office he now holds

better officer, and Judge Coulter's po
litical success is attributed to that
fact, and also the fact that he always
attends strictly to his own business
and leaves other peoples business
alone.
