You are probably aware of the plar
that has been formed by certain parties
in Kentucky who are opposed tt
Governor McCreary and the present
State administration to reOrganize the
State committees at the coming State
convention. get control of the party
machinery and then elect Legislature
next year that will repeal all the re.
form legislation enacted at the last
session. AS part Of this plan the
people who are back of it are pushing
Mr.. ]. nj. Stevenson. of Winchester,
ais q candidate for chairman of the
State Ceatral and Executive Commit
tee in opposition to Mr.. Rufus Van
SAINT. who as chairman of the Demo
cratic campaign committee last year.
wrested control of the State govern
ment from the Republicans and elected
the entire Democratic ticket by MAORI
ties unprecedented in Kentucky for
many years. The people who are back
of this movement are the same ones
who fought Governor McCreary before
his nomination, sulked at home during
the fight against O'Rear, and who
after he was elected without their
help, made themselves conspicuous in
opposition to all measures in the Legis-
lature which the party promised in its
platform should be enacted into law if
they were elected.
The whole purpose of their move
ment is to secure State Central and
Executive Committee hostile to the
McCreary administration and then a
Legislature that will repeal all the re-
torn enactments of the last session, al
though the Democratic party was
elected on platform pledging the
party to the enactment of these laws.
A convention will be held in Paris
tomorrow. The county seems 10 be
for Champ Clark, and
the delegation to the State convention
will be instructed for him. But the
Democrats of Bourbon county should
insist on a resolution endorsing in
strong terms the present State ad-
and should instruct it's
delegates to vote for Hon. Rufus Van
SAINT for chairman of the State Central
and Executive Committee, so that the
State administration will pot be hamp-
cred by hostile State organization
and Legislature opposed to the
policies and recommendations of the
Governor.
1t is to be hoped that all staunch
Democrats will attend the county con-
vention to- morrow and use their In
f1uence to secure an endorsement of
Governor McCreary's administration
and of Rufus Vsnsant. who is in
perfect accord with him, ss chairman
OF the Democratic State Central and
Executive Committee.

A LETTER FROM GOV, McCREAKY.

A LETTER FROM GOV. McCREARY.
Frankfort. KY, May 16. 1912.
Dear Friend
You assisted me when was a candi-
date for Governor, and l am grateful
for the splendid majority which you
and other Democrats gave me at the
last November election / write to
you again because believe all Demo
Gratis should be active, alert, harmuos

regret that there 10 discord among
Democrats in Kentucky. elimination
and recrimination have been too pre-.
valent.
regret, also, that misrepresenta-
their support or endorsement.
At the beginning of the present cam
paign believed, to avoid discord, dis
sension and division in the uemocatic
party, it would be best not to instruct
our delegates to the National CONVEX
ton. but. as we already have dissen-
sions and div isions, it does not make
the same difference with me at pres
ent as when the-campaign opened.
If the Democrats. at the State con-
vention,. decide to instruct the State
delegates, and if the districts instruct
their delegates, / will. as | have al
ways done, faithfully submit to the
will Of the majority. / will support
as | have always done, the nominees

ENDORSE THE ADMINISTRATION

When the Democrats of Bourbon
county meet. in Mass Convention Oh
tomorrow May Is. it should be
their duty in this convention to en-
dorse the present administration of
State affairs. The principal issue at
this convention will be the selection
and instruction of delegates to the
Louisville convention.
Little interest has been taken in the
convention in this county but the wave
of public sentiment and support
seems at the present time to be strong
ly in favor of Champ.Clark and it is
more than probable that the Bourbon
delegation.will be so instructed.
Whether Bourbon county should cast
its vote tor Clark or any other of the
candidates mentioned for the nomi-
nation the endorsement of the State
administration should not be overlook
ed. and it is with this purpose in view
that the News calls the attention. of
the voters to the fact.
Four years ago Kentucky went
Republican by majority of $4,000 and
at the last election it was returned to
the Democratic foal by a majority in
excess of thirty-one thousand. The
present administration lead the party
to victory and it was through their
efforts that Republican rule was set
aside. The men who put up money for
the campaign and conducted an untir-
ing canvas should be- entitled to some
consideration and it behooves every
Democrat who has vote in the con-
vention Saturday to cast it for
resolution commencing the admins
tration.
There has been considerable discord
in the party here of late eminating
from conditions which existed in the
Democatic ranks. Some few have
sought to wrest the laurels for the
great victory achieved last November,
from those to whom they rightfully be-
long and assuming control will
eventually lead the party to ruin.
Harmony should exslst where discord
now prevails. .-

and Executive Committee.
From The Kentuckian-Citizen I

From The Kentuckian-C Citizen.
A County Convention will be held in
PARIS. Saturday. May Is, for the pur-
pose OF selecting delegates to the
State convention at Louisville, which
will select the Kentucky delegation to
the National convention at Baltimore.
1t IS conceded by all that Bourbon
county is overwhelmingly for Hon.
Champ Clark for President and dele
CATION will be sent from Bourbon in
structed for him.
There is. however, another fight
going on under cover of the Presiden-
tial contest that is of far greater i'm
portance to Kentucky than any infiu-
enee it can hope to have in the choice
of candidate for President. and it is
the fight to elect Democratic State
Committee hostile to the Governor and
control the party machinery for the
purpose of antagonizing and iniLrinp
his administration.
The people who are making this
fight are backing Mr.. John M. Steven
son tor Chairman of the State Central
and Executive Committee, and the
Governor and the men who were
chiefly instrumental in securing his
nomination and election. are for Hon.
R. b. Vansant.
Mr.. Vansant was Chairman of the
Democratic Campaign Committee last
year and elected the whole ticket by
such majority as has not been seen
in Kentucky for years.
The Democrats of Bourbon County
should understand the purpose Of this
fight. If it succeeds it means that the
people who are hostile to the Cover
nor will secure control of the pa,ty
machinery. that the Governor will find
himself hampered and hindered in all
bis purposes. that a Legislature will
be elected next year that will repeal
ali the laws which the last Legislature |
enacted in fulfillment of the pledges
made by the party in it's platform, and |
the old ring and 'interests'' which |
nave controlled theDemocratic party in |
Kentucky for years will again be in the
'addle.
Governor McCreary and the State
deserves the commend
ltion of the State and Bourbon County
should put its foot down, good and

palace added to the misery of the
young empress. She noticed that the
czar was angry at her because she
was tendeavoring to introduce in Rus
STA western reforms and that she con-
sidered herself more intelligent than
the entire household in the palace"
In the meantime storms of unrest
had broken out in the land, and or
ders were given to pacify the discon-
tented at all cost. The empress did
not know of the horrors that were per-
petrated in Russia, and when she
learned OF them she consoled herself
in the thought that all the cruelties
directed against the Russian people
were not committed by order of the
czar. She believed that the GEAR, like
herself, was ignorant OF what was go
ing on in the land
But she soon found out her error.
Then her suffering grew ever more In
tense. She looked with disgust upon
the clique surrounding her, upon their
hypocritical smiles and greetings, but
she was unable to change anything
even In the palace. It was then that
she became seriously ILL.,
When the empress had recovered
she divided her time between her chill
dren and her desk She turned once
more to the reading of books and also
devoted considerable time to writing.
Nevertheless the feeling that she was
alone and misunderstood in the palace
weighed heavily upon her She grew
ever more and more melancholy.
One day, after having worked for
some time upon the tragedy she was
writing. the empress entered the
czar's study. She found him seated at
his desk looking over numerous docu-
ments. He frightened up when she
entered and he kissed her hands.
why are you so sad ?" she asked.
Il am thinking OF the future OF our
children" he replied.
The empress looked at him sur
prised.

looking into his troubled eyes.

he said cheerfully, yet with shade OF
confusion
eOh, know about it,"
No. l mean another plot-a new
one. They have just learned OF it to-
day" And shaking his head he
added:

And he described to her in detail
the conspiracy Of the terrorists
against his life. They became more
sad than before The shadow of dan
ger was still lowering over their
heads.

A Paris newspaper. the Femina, put
the following question to It's women
readers recently: What do you think
CHASING them in order of impor-
tance-are the ten principal failings of
men?" The majority of the women
said egotism was mans most besetting
sin. And what is egotism? 1t is
simple and unadulterated selfishness;
and that is mans chief fault, accord
ing to the women. And then these
faults come next in answers: inf
deity, jealousy, intemperance. cow
ardice. That is so-selfishness is the
taproot of them all They are all
logically connected. Following these
five leading sins come, in the women's
answers: immortality, despotism. tenn
per, stupidity and idleness. 1t will
be interesting to follow these an
swers in grading the sins, and pursu-
Ing the gradual descents- from egotism
to laziness. 1t will be found that they
preserve a natural order. For in
stance, infidelity follows egotism.
cowardice follows intemperance, des-
potism follows immortality, and idle
ness is just behind stupidity. The
answers are interesting and just. The
women know more about men't fail
ings than men do. They know morf
than they let on.
