Jim Garnett'S Popularity.

Hon. James Garnett, Democratic
nominee for Attorney General, is
not only one of the ablest lawyers in
Kentucky, but his popularity is &C.
extensive with his acquaintance. 1t
is conceded that he will get more
Republican votes in the Eleventh
District than any man on the ticket.
When Jim Garnett's name is men,
toned in Adair AMI adjoining coun-
ties, they do not think of him as q
politician, but only as a loyal friend
and neighbor, whose talents are sec
ond to no mans, and whose charac-
ter is of the highest.
He began his speaking campaign
last week at Danville, and his ad-
dress was received with great favor.
He is clear, forceful and and logical,
and so fair is he even to his political
opponents, that those who hear him
are convinced that he is not of the
average type of man who seeks Of
flee. His ability as a lawyer is IN
questionable. He will make one of
the greatest attorney generals Ken
lucky has ever had. Mr.. Garrett
will speak here next Monday.

Old Democratic Leaders Back
in Line.

Four years ago. hundreds Of prom
inent Democrats publicly announced
themselves for Augustus f. Wilson
for Governor. In all parts of the
State there we're defections from
the Democratic ranks. and the cam
psign had hardly started before the
situation became serious.
Conditions this year are entirely
different. The Democrats are thor
oughly aroused. confident and en-
thusiastic; the Republicans are divid-
ed into factions, discouraged and
disorganized. All of the old party
leaders who gave spirit and charac-
ter to the Democracy in the past,
are lack in the ranks again. taking
their places with the boys in the
trenches, and asking no recognition
except the right to vote and work
for the success of the ticket. This
is as significant as it is gratifying.
Ii means that thousands Of those
who in other years kept aloof from
the party because they differed with
it on some question of policy, have
organized among themselves a home

James Making a Winning Fight.

All doubt Of Democratic success
can be dispelled by reading the news
paper reports of Ollie James trium.
plant journey through the State.
Wherever he has gone immense
crowds have greeted him, and the
enthusiasm is greater than has been
aroused IN years in any political
campaign. This is not entirely due
to Mr.. James magnetic personality,
although popular with all classes.
1t is caused by the desire of the
Democrats to show by their pres
ence that they are going to send TO
the United States Senate a man who
will vote exactly opposite to Senator
Bradley. They recognize that one
vote in the Senate may mean the
control of that body, so closely are
the parties divided. 1t was not nee
essary for the Democratic speakers
to raise national issues in this fight
The voters themselves are asking
questions about the tariff and the
trusts and they have made this great
ssue feature of the campaign. All
the efforts of Judge O'Rear to con-
fine this contest to State matters
have only convinced them that the
Republican party wants to change
the subject, because it cannot face
the people on its record in Congress
and in the White House.
The legislators to be chosen in No
vember will not only elect q Senator
next January, but nineteen Of the
State Senators will hold over for
two years and will vote for Bradley's
successor in 1914. Kentucky has
never engaged in more far-reach-
ing contest. 1t concerns a Govern
orshiD and all the State offices; two
United States Scholarships. and will
have an influence on the election OF
a President next year. That is why
Champ Clark. Speaker of the House,

Governor Marshall of Indiana, Will
liam ]. Bryan. and all the great ma
tional figures are rendering their
aunDort IN the Zen uckv Democrats.
They know how vital it is to success
in the nation that Kentucky should
vote right this year.
Eloquent as Ollie James always is
upon the stump, he has revealed
new powers of oratory and logic in
this campaign. His speeches are de-
ing a world of good for the party,
and wherever he has appeared Dem
ocratic hopes have been frightened.

Saratoga Grown Celery

S. G. Hunter has some of the
finest celery ever grown in any
country. 1t was grown in his gar
den and shows what can be done
here in the way of fancy garden
ing. The planting of this celery
was an experiment and when Mr..
Hunter secured the plants and set
them out the result was doubtful.
But every plant grew and thrived
to full maturity and he now has
packed away in his cellar a winter
supply Of that succulent Vegetable
equal to that grown in any mans
country east or west. This is just
another evidence of what the soil
here will produce.

To Collect Road Tax

Section 1862, of the Wyoming
Compiled Statutes, provides that
every able bodied man between
ages of 81 and so shall pay a road
tax of 81 per year. The law pro-
vides that this may be paid either
in work or cash az the person may
elect. Section 1857 provides that
the road tax of every person living
within the limits Of an incorpor-
ated town shall be paid to the
Treasurer of such town.
During the recent session of the
County Commissioners, Mayor
McKillip went before it and made
arrangements whereby the road
tax due from the residents of the
Town of Saratoga is to be collect
ed by the Marshal and turned in
to the town treasury. This mon
ey, when collected, will be applied
Mayor McKillip says, to the bet
torment of our streets.
