Cooper would bring about harmony

MURDER IN LEXINGTON

That was a terrific indictment of
Lexington Judge Charles Kerr gave
the Blue Grass capital when he said
it and Fayette county furnished more
homicides in the past year than
London, England, with all her teem-
ing millions. We haven't the figures
handy but we know something of
Judge Kerr and he would make no
such statement without the facts to
back him.
Lexington has been blessed with
several killings the past year in the
Red Light district, but, so far as
close reading would permit, We have
failed to note that single murderer
was sent to the electric chair by a
Fayette jury. In only one instance
we remember was a life sentence in
posed. One slayer got off absolute
ly scot free and another was sent
to lunatic asylum from which he es-
;caped only Wednesday night. The
victims Of these crimes rest in I'M
;mpurned and unhonored graves while
their slayers breath the air they
8 contaminate and actually mingle
with men who claim to be respectable
I! u, the cafes of Lexington.
We hear much Of killings il
Breathitt county. Nearly every
newspaper in the United States will
publish the story Of killing in
Breathitt, but if such thing lap
pens in Lexington it is either moi
told at all in the outside press or Is
buried inside the papers publishing
it without any unduly prominent
headlines. Breathitt has suffered as
a result and We doubt if even
Breathitt county can equal the rec
ord of Fayette last year in the reck-
less disregard Of human life shown
by its gun-users.
If some of those who make it
practice to loaf around questionable
resorts could be sent to the electro
chair, regardless Of their pull with
the police and with the community II
would help nightly to clear the an
down in that populous and wealthy
county. The trouble in Fayette
county is partly with the police III
Lexington in their failure to clear
out the restricted district of such
vagabonds and with the alleged re-
spectacle men of the city who as
sociate with the cattle that infest
these joints and then attempt t.
mingle with men who have some
trace of self-respect. The jurie,
themselves are also to blame 70,

on officers. The officers separate and
go in different directions in The hope OF

the convict, who surprises one Of the

best Scotch singing acts before the

Lauder concert company being with that

Scotland and the British isles. Before

Stirling was leading soprano in the

Unfair Request of Newspapers.

The Republican state committee will
hold meeting at Montpelier, July 10. at
| p. m. to consider plans for the state
campaign. The committee must realize
they have difficult problem on hand
if they hope to have Vermont roll up
an old-time majority at the September
election. Conditions are so mixed party
unity such an unknown quantity that
to readiust all these will take more
than ordinary effort. 1t would seem a
far wiser course for the committee to
use funds at its disposal in reaching
the voters through newspaper publicity
than has heretofore been the custom
of piecing it out among individual work
ers in the several localities in the state.
One dollar spent in forcible newspaper
ad. would reach more people and bring
greater returns than ten dollars spent
in personal work among the voters.
The newspapers in the state have been
great force in campaign work. Nearly
all of this has been done gratis. This
is unfair. A dollars worth of newspa-
per space means the same to the pub

Popular Choice of President.

Congressman Norris of Nebraska, pro,
gressiye Republican, has introduced a
bill providing that presidential primaries
be held throughout the United States on
the first Tuesday in May each presiden-
tial year and delegates be elected at the
same time to attend national conyen-
ton to be held on the fourth Monday OF
that year, the representation in the con.
vention to be determined by the strength
OF the different political parties in each
state. At the primaries the voter would
express his first and second choice for
president, and the results Of the election
certified by the state officials and for
warded the secretary of the interior,
who will count the votes and declare the
result. II any candidate received ma
jority of all the votes, he would be the
party nominee without any action by
the convention, but IL there is no major
ty the convention woudl select can
didate.
We are not acquainted with the details
OF the bill, but believe the general plan
of it is good. 1t would destroy the un-
fair influence OF the South in selecting
Republican candidates and would give
the people full expression of their will.
These are two results that we believe
would be beneficial and just to the pub
lie. We certainly hope some improve
ment will be made before another presi-

The contract for this building is about

THE UNsEATING OF LoRIMER.

In declaring the election of Senator
Lorimer invalid, the United States Sem
ate has taken a high stand. and that
position is bound to be reflected in a
more pure civic life throughout the en-
tire country. This is the more empha-
sized by the large majority which voted

able reversal from the vote on the for
mer occasion, when Lorimer was allowed

ators. But the majority of that jury
believed that corrupt methods and prac.
tees We're employed in the election, the
judgment being based on the evidence
educed in the long -drawn-out hearing,
and without imputing to Mr.. Lorimef
any guilt in the matter, they decided
that such use of corrupt methods and
practices rendered the election invalid
whether or not the votes thus wrongly
influenced had any effect on the result
OF the election. 1t is a long step toward
that goal of civic righteousness which is
so much to be desired in this rather
Shiny political life of ours, and while
Mr.. Lorimer may be an innocent victim
of the rigor of that Interpretation, it Is
nevertheless necessary that a firm and
clean-cut stand be taken in order that
politics might be purified.
As to the effect of the decision, it ia
apparent that the Lorimer case is u
warning to one and all that new tone
is entering public life and that the pub
lie demands that nothing but straight
forward methods be pursued in the in
terests of any candidacy, and, moreover,
ii holds the candidate responsible for
the acts of his lieutenants. This is only
a beginning of the fight for purer cleo
tions in the United States, but it fur
nishes strong incentive for renewed
efforts along that line. May the spirit
which unseated Lorimer spread.
