JUDGE O'REAR'S lNSINCERIIY.

Judge O'Rear has never made
a speech since the campaign
opened that he has not question
ed the sincerity of the Democrat
candidates, and the platform
upon which they are standing.
He is evidently of the opinion
that if he can get it firmly into

cashier of a New Albany bank
The Adair County news., 1911-09-06

the minds of the voters that he
is the only candidate who is in
earnest, that he will gain enough
votes thereby to insure his cleo
ton. 1t is only necessary to
cite one case to prove that Judge
O'Rear has not a sincere bone in
his body. Take his humiliating
surrender to Senator Bradley as
an example.
In a speech at Lexington be-
fore the Republican State Con- |
vention met he did not hesitate
to charge that the third house"
was guilty of corruptly influence
ing the election of United States
Senator. He did not mention
Bradley's name, but every body
knew he meant Governor Brad
ley, and it is a matter within
the knowledge of a number of
people that Bradley called Judge
O'Rear to account for making
the accusation. When the Re-
publican Convention met and
Bradley's wide popularity with
Republicans was shown, as it is
always shown in state conven-
tions, Judge O'Rear saw the ne
cessity of placating the real lead
er, and did it in a way that re-
fiected both on his courage and
his sincerity. He not only
pronounced Bradley 1.-The great
est living Kentuckian," but as
sured the delegates that his
election to the United States
Senate was without a blot or
a stain.
When Bradley was elected by
recreant Democrats influenced
by a corrupt lobby, Judge
O'Rear was on the Court of Ap-
peals bench, and sat day after
day beneath the same roof
where this scandalous conspir-
acy was carried out. If he did
not have personal knowledge of
how it was done he was in posi-
ton to have known what every
intelligent person in Frankfort
knew-that Bradley could not
have won without a deal with
the lobby that would not bear
the light of day. Judge O'Rears
career shows that he always
keeps his ears to the ground and
mis- nose lifted in the direction of
the wind, with an eye peeled for
the main chance, and if he did
not see and hear and smell what
was going on at Frankfort dur
ing that disgraceful essiOn
which eliminated in Bradley's
election, then he lacks the intel
ligence and the foresight to be
Governor of Kentucky, and it
would not be safe to trust him in
that high office for the lobby
would steal the Sta,e House
from under his eyes without his
knowledge.

God combined not his sun

God combined not his sun
beams to the nourishing of po-
tatoes and corn. His scattering
of sunshine was prodigal. Con-
template. He filings the auroral
beauties around the. cold shoul-
ders of the north. He hangs the
quivering picture of the mirage
above the palpitating heart of
the desert. He scattered the
sunbeams like scattered gold up
on the bosom af a myriad of
lakes that gem the robe of ma
ture. He spangles the canopy
of night with star jewels and
silvers the world with the re-
Elected beams from on high.
He hangs gorgeous curtain of
the Occident across the sleeping
room of the sun.
"God wakes the coy maid of
the morning to step timidly from
her boudoir of darkness to climb
the steep Of the orient, to fling
wide the gates of morning and
to trip over the landscape, kiss
ing the flowers in her flight.
She arouses the world to her.
aid with their music the coming
of her king, who floods the world
with effulgent gold. These are
wasted sunbeams, are they? |
say to you that the men or wom-
en- who by the use of money or
power are able to smoothe one
wrinkle from the brow of human
care, or to change one man or
sob into song, or to wipe away a
tear, and to place in it's stead a
jewel of joy, is public benefac-
tor. Such was Riley Grammar.
"The time has come to say
good bye. For the friends and
loved ones not here to say the
word let. me say goodbye, old
man. We will try to exemplify
the spirit of your life as we bear
the grief at our parting. Words
fail me here. Let those flowers,
