When the Legislature adjourned
some time ago, it was supposed
that politics in the state would be
very quiet for some time to come.
But it appears that this is not to be.
For though Lafe Young had been
defeated at the last minute, he now
makes the announcement that he
will go into campaign at once to
secure the nomination before the
primaries next year. He promises
to make at least three speeches in
each County before that time and
intends to make q fght on recipro-
city with Canada as the ckisf argu.
ment in faver of his selection.

4 POLITICAL PaARIsEF.

Replying TO an assertion in the
last issue OF The Herald in which we
said, 1T is not so important as to
which Democrats are nominated as it
is that all Democrats should support
the nominees OF their party" the
Hartford Republican says:
The Herald is very much mis-
taken when it takes this posi-
ton. II is important and more
important than any party should
nominate the very best men for
Office than it rs that they should
he supported whether good or
bad.
This kind Of blind partisan
shin is over, ever in Kentucky.
and a nomination whether good
or bad, by either party. is no
more equivalent TO an election.
And some more OF such sagacious
observations, in confused language.
all of which would appear all
right If thew we're backed up by the
proper spirit Of consistency and
practice upon the part Of the observ-
er.
II the Hartford Republican will
cite a single issue during its career
as a newspaper and party journal
wherein it failed or refused to sup
port the nominees of its party,
whether good or bad men-includ-
ing the impossible Bill Taylor. the
unutterable Gus Wilson, and a few
more of equal unsavory political rep
utation-if II will show US just one
instance where It batted an eyelash
when its party rammed nominations
down its throat. on account OF their
unsuitableness, why, we'll have good
cigars all around and a rattler for
The baby, all at the expense of The
Herald. True. II did come along
with P nost-election Prowl because
Mr.. Roosevelt had foisted Mr.. Taft
u0on its unwilling conscience, but
files Of IT'S paper will show that H.
supported the gentleman 10 the Lost
minute of election day and waited
until after he was President TO saw
what II should have said before.
But, disguisino its grimace, It is ev-
on now shouting for his reelection.
The Hartford Republican is a fair
specimen of the purer-than-thou
journals. those pharisaical bigots
that strain at a germ and swallow
an eleven-foot hipDopotamus. They
always have good medicine, some
wholesome advice, for the other fell
low. while their own aggravated case
goes unattended. Such a mote-pick-
ing attitude would be amusing II it
were not disgusting.
We repeat that IT will be the duty
Of all good Democrats to support the
nominees of their party and we want
more consistent and reliable author
ity than the politically hide-bound
Hartford Republican to show us
wherein we err in the premises. We
have confidence in the integri-
ty and discernment of the voters to
make the proper choice.

REASONS FOR ELECTING
SENATOR'S BY PEOPLE

Seven main reasons are set forth
why the Constitution should be
amended and the Senators chosen by
direct vote of the people instead Of
by the legislatures of the respective
States. The reasons are:
II will make the Senate OF the
United States more responsive to the
wishes of the people of the United
States.
1t will prevent the corruption Of
legislatures.
1t will prevent the improper use
OF money in the campaigns before
the electorate. by men ambitious TO
obtain a seat in the Senate of the
United States.
II will prevent the disturbance ard
turmoil of State Legislatures and the
interference with State legislation
by the violent contests of candidates
for a position in the United States
Senate.
II Will compel candidates for the
United States Senate to be subjected
to the severe scrutiny OF a campaign
before the people and compel the Sc
lection OF the best-fitted men.
II will prevent deadlocks, due to
political contests in which various
States from time TO time have been
thus left unrepresented.
" will nopularize government and
tend TO increase the confidence Of
the people of the United States in
tho Senate of the United States.
