of the Texas" road at Lewisport.
After being arrested and remaining

KENTUCKY REPUBLICANS
see ONLY DEFEAT AHEAD
Taft and His Stolen Nomination
Mean Victory for the
Democrats.

Chicago, ILL.,, June 22.--In the
dark hours of the night a man from
the headquarters of the New York
delegation, where the indefatigable
Mr.. Barnes still makes plans and
eounterplans, arrived at the Great
Northern Hotel to sound the Ken
lucky delegation for the twentieth
time on the subject of third can
didate. The visitor failed to arouse
a spark of interest.
Let the leaders settle it," repli-
ed the Kentuckians, and others OBJ
served, Mr.. Taft got us all into
this, let him take the nomination
and get the defeat"
1t is impossible for anyone not in
Chicago to appreciate the dull des-
pair which pervades every branch
of the apparently victorious wing
of the Republican party. At every
hotel men can be heard to say that
they have given up all hopes of be-
ing elected to Office on Republican
tickets.
In the general overthrow candi-
dates for local Offices expect to go
down with candidates for Governor
and Congress. The Republican par
ty, even the Taft delegates say, is
wrecked, and Crane, Penrose and
the National Committee are held re-
sponsible.
That Roosevelt will run as the
of third party, is consid-
cred certain. but that ticket will
hardly be launched before August.
The Roosevelt leaders are saying
to-day:
80 .et- ns-al go. -hnme- first and see
what the people think"
The Roosevelt convention will
probably be held in Denver, al
though ST. Louis and Indianapolis
are being mentioned.

The Breckenridge News regrets
that in it's last issue the adver-
tisement of one of its county banks
was, through a Misunderstanding as
to copy" left out for the first time
in twenty-five years, and SAYS the
banks president regretted it,"
This is certainly a commendable
and remarkably long record for
banks advertising. Usually, bank
officials seem to think that their in
stitution's business announcement
should only appear in the semi-an-
nual statements, though just why,
nobody knows. Any good business
should be constantly advertised, and
in this matter the banks should
really take the lead.

In the June issue of Our Coun-
try" of Louisville, that little jour
nal comes out with another TRADE
against The Herald. in an article
headed Temperance, Starting
out, il says;
In several recent issues we
have INDUCED in a discussion
with the Editor of the Hartford
Herald. In this discussion We
have been considerate of the
feelings of our opponent, but
strange to say, our good-nature
seems rather to have riled our
dear friend and to have caused
him to say some very harsh
things against us because we
do not take the same view OF
temperance that he does.
The Herald has never been at all
"riled" in any way or form, and the
only harsh" words we have ever
used. we're embraced in the tenta-
tive charge that Our Country" is
backed by the liquor interests of
Kentucky, daring it to deny or dis
prove this allegation. Further
along in its Temperance" article,
referring to The Herald or its
scribe, Our Country" says:
He believes that prohibition
will cut off the supply of liquor
from the people, whereas every
reader of this paper must know
that prohibition does not pre-
vent anyone from buying all
the liquor that he wants.
He believes that prohibition
lists desire to prevent the use
of alcoholic beverages, where
as We know that the prohibit
tionists would rebel against
prohibition if in any case it
should operate to prevent the
purchase and use of liquor.
The above paragraphs are so pre-
pOsterous and so untrue that they
do not deserve any answer or spec.
ial attention. The question at issue
is not as to whether Prohibition al
ways prohibits, or whether or not
from a biblical standpoint, il is
right or wrong to drink liquor. TIE
main and only question which start
ed this controversy months ago
which has never been answered and
which we have repeatedly and YET
defy our esteemed contemporary to
answer. is simply this: is OR IS
NOT OUR COUNTRY" AN AL
