THE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM

THE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM
On the third page of this issue APP
pears the Democratic platform upon
hich the Democrats hope to elect
James B. McCreary for Governor at
the coming election.
In the issue of July 20, we publish
ed the Republican platform upon
which Edward C. O'Rear challenges
his opponents.
This is a chance for our readers
to compare the two side by side,
to study the merits and demerits of
each. These are the issues upon
which the future Government OF Ken
lucky rests. 1t is now in the hands
of the people to decide whether the
people shall rule" for the next four
years or continue to BE ruled" as
they have been in years past.
EDWARDS AND POWERS UNITE
II is reported that Don C. Edwards
and Congressman Caleb Powers pro-
pose a joint canvass Of the Eleventh
district for O'Rear. This announce
ment is even more surprising to some
than that of the two newspapers of
the Western part Of the state that
have declared for O'Rear. For such
actions there must be many reasons
and there are. Along with others. is
the absence from the Democratic plat
form Of single word in regard to
the re-districting of the State. Upon
this rests the representation of the
people in the legislative bodies and

per should have sufficient backbone
to take a stand for what IL considers
right. and l am frank to say The
Times will support Judge O'Rear
and the State ticket at the coming
election. While personally we have
no fault with Mr.. McCreary, yet we
feel that his failure to take a per-
manent stand on questions Of vital
interest. not only to the political par
ties. but to the home, church and
society, warrants our taking a stand
with the man who has backbone to
defend right and condemn wrong. We
find In Judge O'Rear a perfect gen.
tleman, brave as a lion, and. we be-
lieve. the man who will make the
grand old State of Kentucky a good
chief executive"
The Gazette received and publish

from Clarence Z. Woods, a lifelong
Democrat and former Mayor OF Rich

which he explains his reasons for op-
posing McCreary and states that
