FOR adams.
Editor of the LeitChfieId Gazette
Comes Out For Adams for
Governor.
(From Leitchheld Gazette. J

There are two aspirants for the
nomination for Governor. What
ought men who have the welfare
of their party at heart to do as
between these two men? 1t seems
to be conceded that they are both
good men and that either one
would make a good Governor.
Which one of these men will make
the stronger race before the peo-
pie next November? Let us be
candid with each other. 1t is a
fact recognized all over the State
that it is very doubtful whether
Mr.. McCreary can be elected.
You may inquire from almost any
part of the State and you will
hear of large numbers of Demo-
Gratis who are swearing they will
not vote for him. BY no means
is this opposition confined to Cath
olics alone but is found among all
others. Then, the Republicans
are evidently of the opinion
that McCreary is going to get the
nomination and that they can
beat him. No other explanation
can be made of the fact that so
many Republicans are seeking the
gubernstorial nomination at the
hands of that party, a nomination
which has usually gone begging in
this State. They see at least a
fine chance to be elected. If the
head of the Democratic ticket is
defeated it is likely the entire
ticket will be. Why should we
jeopardise the ticket next fall in
the interest of any MANI Why
should we even put the ticket in
the least danger9 Can anbody
give a good reason for such a
course9 The political trend is
toward the Democratic party all
over the country. Anybody we
may nominate, who is acceptable
to the majority of the Democrats,
can be elected Governor of Ken
lucky next November. Nobody
seems to have anything to say
against Hon. William Adams.
He does not belong to any faction.
He has made no enemies. He is
in the prime of life. There is no
reason why every Democrat in the
State would not not vote for him.
His nomination assures the sue
cess of the Democratic ticket.
Here are two horses entered for
a race, one OF them has three lame
legs, and the other one is as sound
as dollar. AS wise man on
which one would you bet your
money?
1t is the duty of the Democrats
to nominate as their candidate for
Governor the man who can make
the strongest race.
The editor of this paper has
nothing against Mr.. McCreary,
but is writing in the interest of
the Democratic party in Kentucky.
Why put it in the doubtful col
umn when we can so easily place
it where there will be no doubt.

1t is said that nursing is one OF
the most inviting fields of human
service and that its financial re
turn surpasses any other occupa-
ton open to young women. 1t de-
velops all the native graces OF
womanhood and leads the way to
positions of trust and influence.
The demand for more nurs-s is a
world wide call.
The Philadelphia School for
Nurses, located in Philadelphia,
Pa, has undertaken to meet this
demand by Offering free scholar
ships to young women in all parts
of the country. Room, board,
