means the Herald writer reached
the inner chamber, and gave to
the reading public the first pos
tive assurance of a Democratic
platform convention, and the
date on which it is to be held is
outside of our knowledge of
prudent political action on the
part of our committee. Again
the Herald states:
Judge Reed wants the Democratic
State Executive Committee to call a
convention. The committe will accom-
modate the Paducah jurist, but will ask
him to be patient until after the pri.
mary is held.
From the above, it would ap-
pear that an intimate relation
exists between the Herald writer
and the majority part of our
committee; that it is more closely
allied to the organ of the COM
mon political foe than to any
Democratic publication, regard
less of past service or future
worth anG influence.

WED. MARCH. 20, 1911,

The announcement of Judge
William Reed, Of Paducah, for
the Democratic nomination for
Governor, dispels the mists that
have enveloped the party since
the withdrawal of Hon. Ben
johnson. His entry into the
race must-satisfy every Demo-
crat who lamented Mr.. Johnson's
action, and who sincerely be-
lieved that neither Senator Nc
Creary nor Mr.. Adams, could
bring to the polls that magrifi-
cent majority that awaits party
unity in opposition to Republican
forces. His announcement also
should be gratifying to the many
ardent admirers of his oppo-
nents, as it will give the party
a full and unobstructed chance
to choose its standard bearer
from a broad field backed by
character and ability. Judge
Reed comes before the Dem
ocrats of this State in response
to what he believes to be party
duty. He saw the tangled sit
uation into which our party had
unfortunately gotten, and obey
ed the call OF many true DEM
ocrats to broaden our opportoni-
ty in selecting a candidate for
Governor. He is a man of cour-
age and ability, a Judge and
Democrat. true to every convic-
tion of equal rights for all and
exclusive privileges for none.
In his announcement he asks
his party to take a position on
the issues that confront US by
adopting a platform, thus show
ing that he is not merely seeking
Office, but DESTROYS of doing duty.
No longer need dissension live in
our party, no longer any fear ex-
list that political chicanery would
throttle the will of the great
body of Democrats. It's a TRAN
gle again, with three sterling
Democrats of character and
ability contending for honors and
an opportunity to do party serv-
ice and public duty.

Strange. but true, the Louis
vile Herald, the only Republican
paper of general circulation, in
the State, gives the first tip of
the inside workings of the State
Executive Democratic Commit
tee regarding its attitude on a
platform convention. From the
Big Sandy to the Mississippi, and
from the Ohio to our Southern
border, Democrats have been
asking for platform, and many
of the leading papers of the
state have appealed to the COM
mittee to call a convention for
this specific purpose, but so far,
the only evidence of its realiza-
ton rests on the statement of
ARGUS" in the Herald, and is
as follows;
Urey Woodson is still raving because
the Democratic committee has moi
called convention for the purpose Of
framing platform. If Mr. Woodsor
will take the trouble to poll the mem
bers of the committee he will find tina,
majority of them favor a platform

ticket flom this district, but we
simply give this as a timely
warning that if there should be
an omission of this district it
would be a grave mistake which
would place the ticket in very
serious doubt. = Somerset times.

Pray tell us how many men do

Rock Island Is Building Shop
S'Strike Fences in Kansas.
Getting Ready to Fight Unions
in Their Demands.
WATCHWITH INTEREST
Result Means Much to COndi-
lions in This Country.
Other Items of General Interest
in Traffic World.

The Rock Island is expecting trou-
| bic from the union shopmen who have
threatened to strike and who have
! made demands on the road for better
working conditions. 1t is admitted by
general officials of the road in Topeka
/ that at this time a big force of car
peLTers is building high board fences
around the large and small shops over
the system. In Kansas these men are
now at work on the shops t Horton
and Herington-
The statement given out by General
Manager Sweet in Topeka and general
officials on other parts Of the system,
publicly denOuncing the union
shopmen's requests and openly
declaring independence against the
road circles.
VIII the Rock Island succeed in op-
Grating it's shops without union Ia
bor?' is the question the railroad men
are asking each other. 1t is the gen.
eral opinion that the road will win its
fight in case the shopmen strike. It is
predicted also that in case the Rock
Island does win this controversy-and
the strength and influence of organi-
zation among shopmen will be greatly
weakened in the railroad world.
The unioEs, of course, have a differ
TENT idea
It is evident that the Rock Island
will do all in its power to win over
the union shopmen in case they strike.
The public announcement from the
head officials indicates that the road
throws down the gauntlet to the would
be strikers. 1t is an open book that
the Rock Island will try to follow in
the footsteps of the Santa F'e and
open" all its shops.
In the statement issued Saturday it
will be remembered that the Rock Is
land officials took up every demand of
the employees and denied them abso-
lutely- Furthermore the officers either
pointed out that the demands were I'M
reasonable on their face. or they were
too expensive for the present business
and general conditions.
One characteristic answer read:
This demand means a tremendous
increase in the expenses of the COM
pany without contemplating any re-
turn in the shape of additional service
or of economy in any form"
The railroad world is waiting anxi-
ously for the outcome If the shop
men strike the outcome is still more
interesting. If the Rock Island is able
to obtain enough strikebreakers to run
their machinery-and run it success
fully, il will be a blow to union labor
and will mean the beginning of serious
situation in this country. Capital and
labor have made frequent attempts to
be harmonious, but with rather ques-
tionable success-and such impending
conditions the result is drawing nearer.
The Rock Island action is watched
closely by both sides.
