O'Rear Dodges Question.

then asked him the following ques
tions:
Do you endorse President Taft's veto
of the farmers free list bill1
Do you endorse President Tafts veto
of the bill reducing the existing tariff
taxes on wool and wooden goods1
Do you endorse President Taft's veto
of the bill reducing the existing taxes
on cotton goodsl
Do you endorse the votes against the
farmers free list bill, which were cast
by Senator bradley and Representative
Powers and your campaign chairman,
Representative Langley
Do you endorse the Payne-Aldrich
tariff bill which President Taft signed,
and which he said was the best Repub-
lean tariff law ever passed.
Do you endorse the pardon by Gov.
Wilson of Finley, Taylor, Howard and
Powersl
To these great questions which every
man, woman and child is interested in
and which contribute to the happiness
and comfort of the people and which
are attracting attention in every state
in the Union, Judge O'Rear makes the
following response: ITO tell you the
honest truth, have not read one of
the bills. have been too busy getting
to be governor of Kentucky to think of
those things"
Judge O'Rear seems to be like mary
other Republicans. They care but little
about the comfort and happiness of the
people, but are busy trying to get into
Office, and their legislation has been in
the interest of the classes and not in
the interest of the masses, but Judge
O'Rear must not become a demagogue
dodger and plead ignorance when he S
asked great and mt ortant questions.
When Judge O'Rear says he has not
read the vetoes of President Taft,of the
farmers free list bill, of the wool and
woolens bill, and of the cotton bill, he
does not excuse himself for not answer
ing my questions, and will continue to
ask them, and the people will believe
that If this distinguished Judge. who is
candidate for governor, has not read
these important bills, and the vetoes
sent to congress by the Republican he
endorsed for a second term as president
he is very negligent of his duty, and
should take teps Immediately to inform
himself as to the bills and vetoes re
ferred to-

If
by Radyard Kipline

(T If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it you
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubling, too;
If you wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about don't deal in lies
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good nor talk too wise
If you can dream-and not make dreams your
master;
If you think-and not make thoughts your
aim;
If you meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two mpostors just the same
If you can bear to hear the truth you we spoken
Twisted by knaves to make trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken
And stoop and build 'em up with WORKOUT toos
If you make heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch and toss,
Ana lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe word about your loss;
If you force your heart and and snew
To your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them "IIold on'
II you walk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings-nor lose the common touch
If neither foes loving friends hurt you;
Ii all men with you, but too much
If you fill the upforgivng minute
With sixty seconds worth of distance run
Yours is the earth and everything that's in it,
And-which is more-you'll be a my son

O'Rear's Reckless Statements

his most reckless and unauthorized
st ,tement was made in his speech al
H ardinsburg on September 5. He says:
"Siace on platform stands approved
bv the Democratic nominee for COVER
nor and the Democratic press, what
reason has any Democratic voter not to
vote for it?"
If he will read my speech and be can
did he will find that spent much time
severely criticising and opposing the
first part of the Republican platform,
which is as follows:
We recognize the high character and
ability, and the distinguished public
services of President Taft, and cordial
ly endorse mis- administration, and I'M
reservedly endorse him for lenomina-
ton in 1e1l. We heartily commend
our Repu olican senator and represen
tatives in congress for the assistance
they have given to the national admin
istration.
"We approve and endorse the Re-
publican administration of the affairs
of the state, ETC."
am sure there is not Democrat or
a Democratic newspaper in Ken lucky
that approves that part of the Repub-
lican platform to which l have referred
OF course, the various sections of the
Republican platform which contain
principles which Democrats have been
endorsing for years are not opposed,
but all other parts of the Republican
platform, inconsistent with the Demo
cratic platform, are opposed by me and
by Democrats generally.
Judge O'Rear, in his speech al May.
field, on August 81, asked me the fol-
lowing questions: 'Are you in favor
of the extension of the county unit law
in Kentucky, ETC., and when did you
come to that conclusionP Which were
promptly answered by me in my Bowling
Green speech as follows; II have already
said in my speech 10 lay that ! endorse
every SCCtlOu vi TUG (SilONAalAS plat-
form adopted at the state convention at
Louisville on August Is, 1911, but will
say now specifically am in favor OF
the extension of the present local OPP
ton law as applied to the sale of liquors
so that the citizens Of each and every
county in the state may determine for
themselves whether spirituous, vinous
On malt liquors may be sold therein. y
These are the exact words of the state
Demo cratic platform.
81 came to this conclusion some time
ago when the question of the extension
of the county unit law became promi
nent, and | regarded It as the best plar
to settle an important question.
If Judge O'Rear had read on the day
of the state Democratic convention the
published account of the views of the
state Democratic candidates for Office
he would have known that and al
other candidates for state Offices were

O'REAR CALLED
BY MsCREARY
Declares He Must Come out in
The Open on PardOns. Makes
Plain Speech at Kuttawa---
Campaign Opened
IN FIRST DISTRICT

Kuttawa, KY, Sept. y The Demo-
cratic campaign was opened In the
First district by Senator McCrearv, the
nominee for governor, this afternoon,
before one Of the largest crowds that
ever attended political speaking in
Lyon county. Before the speaking
Senator McCreary held reception at
his hotel and Democrats from this and
adjoining counties called to assure him
of their support in the contest to free
Kentucky from the yoke of Republican
ism.
Senator McCreary discussed the Dem
ocratic state platform along the lines OF
his opening speech at Bowling Green,
and his utterances rang out true on
every plank. His contrast of the adj
ministration of state affairs under
Democratic and Republican rule caught
the crowd and made deep impression
on his hearers. He appealed to the
First district Democracy to do its full
DUTY in November, as the eyes OF the
nation we're upon it, and the shouts OF
I'VE will that followed, showed there
was no doubt about the Democratic
Gibraltar outdoing itself for the state
ticket.
The speaker showed his old time vigor
in going after Judge O'Rear, his Re-
publican opponent, for his reckless
statements on the stump and attempt
to dodge the questions that had been
propounded to him. Senator McCreary
said:
