BEHIND WITH THE JURORS
is THE STATES RECORD
The Cadiz Record says:

The Cadiz Record says:
The State of Kentucky now owes
the Jurors of Trigg county $685.
So, $527,O3 of which has been due
for over sixteen months, and the
balance of it has been due nearly
nine months, and still there is no
prospects of this money being paid
any time soon, Gov. Wilson has
squandered nearly 100000 Of the
peoples money during his admins
tration in scattering soldiers broad
cast throughout the State. with very
little IL any good accomplished.
These soldiers have been paid their
money promptly, but you jurors
who are forced by the law to serve,
must wait from twelve to eighteen
months for your money. And Judge
O'Rear endorses all this in his plat
form. So if'YoU want this state of
affairs to continue, then vote for
O'Rear and his crowd of hungry
pie-hunters; but IL you do not, then
vote for McCreary and the Demo-
cratic ticket. You may not have
had to serve on the Jury during the
past two years, but you cannot tell
how soon you will be forced to.

Temperance advocates throughout
the State do not want anything
more than the famous McCulloch
letter to prove the insincerity o.
Judge O'Rear and the hypocrisy OF
the whole Republican campaign.
This letter broke the thin veneerinG
of an alleged temperance crusade on
the part OF the Republican ticket
and showed how money was being
solicited from the liquor interests
to run it. Gov. McCrcary has plant
Cd himself squarely upon a County
Unit platform. and nothing has or
will happen to show his insincerity
in the premises.

Less than two weeks now until
the election. Let all Democrats who
take an interest in the success Of
their party's ticket, lose no time in
these few days. 1t has been thor
oughly demonstrated that 1t was the
stay-at-home vote that has defeated
the Democratic ticket in recent
years. This ought to be sufficient to
arouse every Democrat to action.
Every vote counts and only by poll
ing our full strength can success be
expected at the polls.

In these closing days Of a hot
campaign you will probably hear
tales detrimental to the Democratic
candidates started by Republican
bosses who have become desperate
in a losing tight. These same bosses
have threatened to spring sensations
before election day. and inasmuch
as they have not made good SO far,
their scheming work may yet be
looked for. 1t may be well to be on
guard. though nothing they may
spring should be believed.

We have not seen any OF the NOV

/ Russian government is contemplating

passports, has reached Washington.
The advices to the state department
are unofficial but they are accepted
as trustworthy and accurate.
Already the Russian ministry has
prepared bin which win relieve Jews

STA, OF the necessity of having their
passports yiscd hoy the Russian diplo-
matte and consular offices. The at
titude of the Russian government has
given great satisfaction to the admin

Russia's action in the matter is
purely internal, looking to the amend
ment of the existing regulations other
than TO changes in the organic law of
the empire The froer admission to
Russia of American Jews on business
enterprises is the first step i'm the lib
eralization OF these regulations.
The change i'm the conditions lies
in the fact that the Russian embassy
at Washington no longer hcsitatcs to
wise the passports issued by the state
department to any American Jcw who
desires 10 visit Russia il ne presents
credentials or other necessary evidence
To show that ne is on a legitimate bus
iness mission and is in no sense AN ag-
itator or wants 10 remain permanent !

apply. for the reason that the Russian |
government stll maintains the doc

Iuire new nationality without the

government.
The immediate result Of the changed
