A young man who seems to have
an ambition to accomplish something
worth while in the educational field,
and judging from that determined
expression in his frank open counte-
nance, he is going to succeed in the
undertaking. = daily Bulletin,

antly qualified for tie high Office

Successful in Great Undertakings.

position which he seeks, and his rec
ord as an educator has been one Of

Right Man in the Right Place.
We believe as state superintendent
of public instruction, he would be
the right man in the right place.
Galloway County Gazette.)
Mr.. Hamlet believes in the equal
ization of opportunities, and his
greatest wish in his work is to make
opportunity knock at the home of
every school child in Kentucky. We
like Mr.. Hamlet, and unlike most
politicians he improves on acquaint-t
ance. In fact, he is not n politician,
he is school man who is well equip
ped for the ofice.-(The Breckln-
ridge News, Cloverport }
Making a Fine Race.
He is a man of infinite ability and
capacity and stands upon a platform
that neither trims nor tergiyersates
that begs no question nor evades a
single issue. Mr.. Hamlet, man of
individuality and ability, an educator
and orator, is conceded to be the |
logical man for the place and is en-
dorsed by leading educators and the
press. Prof. Hamlet is out for the |
Democratic nomination and is maxi
ing a vigorous canvass; he stands |
for progression and has the unquali-
fled endorsement of his home people. |
He has the credentials of a sturdy |
Democrat and bears the highest |
qualifications of an ideal superin-
tendent.
Eminently qualified for the posi-
ton sought, we believe him to be
''the man" for superintendent of our |
state schools.
Prof. Hamlet Is a strong friend |
to the cause of advanced education |
and believes in square deal from
the smallest district to the most pro-
gressiye city in the country. He is
a friend to the common schools of |
the state, is a clean, sound and
teacher who has all the |
elements of success in his makeup
and is man in every way capable of
an officer of whom the whole
state would be justly proud.
1t is hoped that Mr.. Hamlet will
have no opposition before the Dem
Dcratic primary, for he is so thor
oughly Democratic and clean in his
views, SO well equipped from all
angles, that antagonism would be al
most unjustifiable.
Mr.. Hamlet has given a good ac-
count of himself. and his work at
is a monument to his
ability as a school worker and or
yanizer. He has made more than
good there and can make good at the
lead of Kentucky's school affairs. I'll
fou want to know what Barksdale
Hamlet stands for, just follow care
fully the creed of the man as pro-
nulgated by himself.-(H Henderson
