WHALLENS DECIDE TO
QUIT POLITICAL GAME
For Years They Have Been Pc.
liticaI Leaders in City of
Louisville.

The Louisville Times Of Saturday
says:
The Whallens have quit politics
People in all walks of life in the city
sat up and took notice. while politi-
cal circles were stirred to their
depts, when it became known to-
day that the two Whallen brothers
Col. John H. Whallen and his life
long partner and co-worker in every
undertaking, James P. whallen-
had definitely and permanently re-
tired from politics. and neither OF
them would ever again take part in
a political campaign.
The announcement, sudden as IL
was startling, came as a surprise to
all except a very few OF their init
mate friends, though it appears now
that this step has been contemplated
by the Whallen brothers for some
time, and that Col. James Whallen
has been largely instrumental in
bringing this end about. His heart
and soul have been set for a good
while upon both of them getting out
OF politics entirely, and, when not
engaged strictly with their business
interests. spending the rest of their
time in travel together. and with
their families, taking life easy,
free from care and worry.
ut is known that Col. Jim Whal-
len has far more influence with Col.
John Whallen than every one else
in the wide world combined, and
while they always act as a unit on
every proposition, in business as well
as politics. those closest to them say
that the younger Whallen's judg-
ment has controlled their course and
policy as often as, If not indeed more
often than, that OF Col John him
self. Now that they have agreed to-
gether to quit politics. get out of
the political game. and given their
positive word to that effect. every
man who knows them realizes that
It is final"

the committee together for the pur-
pose of calling a platform conven-

The committeeman in the letter
declare that it will be folly for the
Democrats TO nominate candidates
without a platform. They inclose a
copy OF resolution which they want

ASKS JUDGE O'REAR SOME
IMPORTANT QUESTIONS

In announcing his candidacy foi
the governorship, Judge O'Rear il
admirably outspoken. He tells
frankly and IN the main clearly just
what he proposes TO stand for. and
in this respect he is, thus far in the
present campaign. alone among the
declared candidates. s;one other
has. as yet. thus taken the voters in
70 his confidence.
The Judge. however, might have
gone further. There are before the
state other important issues than
those on which he defined his views.
There is, for instance the problem
Of lawlessness. from which Ken
lucky has suffered so much.
What is TO be done TO uphold the
authority Of the law?
What is 20 be done TO redeem the
state from mobs?
What IS 10 be done 10 secure the
performance Of their duties by the
officers Of the peace?
Other States seem TO have found
answer 10 some Of these questions
by FORGETTING the commissions Of GER
tain officials on failure TO DO their
duty. No State ore than Ken
lucky needs 20 find the answers 70
all Of these questions.
