STOCK, CROP AND FARM NOTES

Over 1000 acres of land were
signed in Montgomery county Monday
at the tobacco meeting addressed by
President LeBus and {. H. Bergman.
A large crowd attended the meeting
and much interest was manifested.
Harry Howell and Crawford Mason
were appointed county solicitors, and
will make house TO house canvass
for signers The first loose sale will
be held there on Saturday, and tobacco
is being received and made ready.
President LeBus informed the grow
ers that if they made the loose leaf
house success he would install large
rerdying plant in Mt. Sterling.
The poolers in Montgomery county
feel more encouraged over the ten-year
plan than of any plan for years. and
believe they will sign up at least 5,OOO
acres.
Before leaving Washington for
Kentucky Monady night Representa-
tive J. G.. Cantrll had an important
conference Z with Senator Bradley
about the hill providing for semi

! tobacco in the hands of manufacturers
and dealers. This bill, introduced by
Mr.. Cantrill. has passed the House and
is now on the verge of being reported
/ by the Senate Census Committee.
The Kentuckians decided that pres
sure is to be at once eXerted for a
favorable report, which will probably
be forthcoming, and agreed also to
permit no substantial changes in the
bill. An amendment en- behalf OF
Pennsylvania cigar dealers raising the
exemption from dealers manufacturing

Every effort is being made by
some Republican papers of the
State to discredit the work of the re-
Gently adjourned Legislature, simp-
ly because il was Democratic in
both Houses, and the local organ
here is barking at the heels of its
leaders. In q long TRADE against
the various bills passed, the Hart
ford Republican lays special stress
upon the one in regard to hunting,
and says the country boy who wants
to hunt on his own land must pay
$1.00 for the privilege. This, of
course, is not true, as this license
tax applies only to promiscuous
hunters, and anybody can hunt on
his own land as much as he pleases.
This is only sample of its misrep-
resentation.

cause we answer his LAME and
SIMPLE MINDED attacks with
some vigor that we are. MAD.
Nothing of the kind, old boy
1t is a BAD SIGN when you
get a chronic notion that all
around you are MAD.
In a recent issue the Republican
called The Herald a yellow pup"
We submit that anybody who would
make a yelled insinuation and cow
ardly attack upon a mans charac-
ter, like the above, is not possessed
of the principle of a yellow pup, or
any other color of canine. 1t shows
the method of the assassin of char
acter and convicts the Republican
of being such. Further along in
the same issue, the Republican
says:
This paper has never in the
least sought TO injure any per-
sons reputation. 1t does not
deal in vague insinuations
against its fellow citizens, eth
er.
Taking these two quoted para
graphs into consideration, We leave
It to the public as to whether or not
the Republican has lied.

VOTES or WOMEN THIS
YEAR FOR PRESIDENT
More Than a Million Feminine
Votes May Be Cast
This Next Fall.

While the campaign managers
are combining their arguments and
appeals to the male voting popula-
ton of the Nation and will contin-
ue to do so until the polls are clos
ed in November, it should not be
forgotten the women are going to
cut a very important figure in the
selection of a President of the Unit
ed States this year. 1t is quite pos
sible that they may decide the cleo
ton.
II is estimated that about $780,
900 women will be entitled to vote
in the Presidential election of this
year. This is about one-fourteenth
of the probable vote for all the
candidates. Women vote in Cali
fornia, Idaho, Colorado, Wyoming,
Utah and Washington, States hav-
ing thirty-seven votes in the Electo-
raj College. Neither of these States
is pivotal by any means, but all of
them are debatable, and it is con-
ceivable that in closely contested
election, their votes may decide the
issue. California alone has 672,-
The Hartford herald. [volume] (Hartford, Ky.) 1875-1926, 1912-03-20

900 women entitled to vote. In that
State the fair sex predominates by
a large majority, a peculiar fact in
the face of the general impression
that women are scarce in the Far
West.
There is prospect, too, that
three other States may be added to
the list of those in which women
may vote before the Ides of Novem-
Der. Oregon, Wisconsin and Kan
sas will vote on equal suffrage
amendments in September, with a
healthy prospect that all those
States will vote for the enlarge
ment of the franchise. These States
have twenty-seven electoral votes,
which added to the thirty-seven in
the five Western States, would make
a total of sixty-four votes in the
college of 531 Electors, or more
than one-ninth. Presidents have
been elected by very narrow mar
gins in the Electoral College and it
would seem that the campaign man
ayers might do we'll to devote lit
tie special attention to the woman
vote this year.

RECENT ASSEMBLY BEST
IN THE STATES HISTORY
The Louisville Times says:

The Louisville Times says:
The General Assembly of 1912
has done some things that it ought
not to have done; it has left undOne
some of the things it ought to have
done; it has not at all times been
deaf TO the appeal of the spokesman;
it has at times mistaken partisan
ship for patriotism; but, judging its
work as a whole, making allowance
for the briefness of the session, the
mass of bills to be considered and
the influences always at work to
prevent good legislation, the Gen
eral Assembly of 1912 will easily
take rank as the best in the State'G
history. To Mr.. McDermott and to
Mr.. Terrell. presiding officers of TIE
Senate and the House, is due no
small share of the praise.

and the keen activity of the men as
ISOLATED with him, got a very big
lead on all the other candidates,
and that up to q short time ago
there was nothing but very poor
seconds. There can be mo gainsay-
ing that Speaker Clark has gained
steadily. There seems to be no
doubt that the Harmon movement
is making Roadway. Practically all
the so-called advanced progressive
States are lining up behind Cover
nor Wilson. His own State, accord
ing to best information, is likely to
have a split delegation. Hostility
there to Governor Wilson is very
bitter on the part of the machine
leaders, and they are working Wig
orously to prevent the instruction
of delegates for DR.. Wilson. d.
Speaker Clark has an advantage
in that Sc of the 76 Democrats thus
far elected are instructed for him.
His first block of SO came from his
own State. Then he split the 20
from Oklahoma with Governor Will
son, and two days ago got the full
delegation Of 20 from Kansas. Gov
ernor Wilson has only the 10 he re-
ceived from Oklahoma None of
the other candidates has any.
In their analysis, experienced psi
iticians say it is impossible to meas
ure the strength of the various can
didates at the present time. sThe
Harmon strength, they assert, has
not been disclosed. 1t is still under
the surface, while, they add, prac-
tically all the Wilson sentiment has
been found and developed. Nearly
all the leaders, however, say that at
the present time Governor Wilson
has a plain lead on all others.

statement that he made a few days
ago:
Il did not believe that Mr.. Roose-
welt had any chance for the Presi-
Dental nomination before his Co.
lumbus speech. Since then feel
perfectly sure that his candidacy
will amount to nothing. His repu-
diation of his promise, made Novem-
Der s, 1904, that under no circum-
stances would he be a candidate
for or accept another nomination,
followed by his statement of De-
cember II, 1907, that he had not
changed and would not change his
decision, convicts him of insinceri-
ty, for which the American people
will hold him responsible.

The trouble with some young
men is that they do not understand
the dignity of manual labor. They
do not realize that honors and for
tune may be more readily gained
outside OF the so-called learned pro-
LESSONS than in them; and that II
is just as honorable to swing a
hammer or to hold plow as 1t is
to make a speech in court or to am
putate a limb. The lesson young
men should be taught as early as
possible is that it is not 30 much
what a man does for a living as how
he does It, and that manual labor is
as honorable as any other.
