DR.. Mahaffey, of Owsley county,
is contending that he is the best
qualified man for the Senate.
This we deny. To place the two
men, side by side, and face to
face, no stranger would hesitate
for a minute in choosing Mr.. Ar
nett. DR., Mahaffey, while we
have nothing to say against him
personally, is a man of the

thing that we do despise it is to
hear any man bowling for Caleb,

Attempted Suicide.

On last Saturday night at
about II o'clock, Mrs. Emily
Cartmell, wife of E. T. Cart
nell, generally known as Zig"
Cartmell, took carbolic acid with
suicidal intent, and is now how
ering between life and death as
the result. 1t is not known what
caused her to attempt to end her
life as her family relations were
pleasant. Mr.. Cartmell works
as clerk in the store of c. w.
Womack and did not go home on
Saturday night until quite late.
Mrs. Cartmell's sister, Mrs. Nora
Cottle, went home with Mr..
Cartmell that night and they
had not been at home very long
until Mrs. Cartmell took the
dose of poison. Mr.. Cartmel
had retired and after she had
taken the acid his wife fell on
the bed by him. He arose and
hurried for DR.. w. II. Wheeler
who went and administered an
antidote. Mrs, Cartmell is in 9
very critical condition, but hopes
are entertained that she will re.
cover.

An Earnest Appeal.
West Liberty, KY.
Oct. 80, 1913.

I Fellow citizens OF the county
Of Morgan:
AS next Tuesday is the cleo
tion, | want to appeal to you to
go to the polls on that day and
cast your vote for me and for all
of the democratic ticket. | be-
lieve that every county nominee
will be elected by a handsome
majority, but don't get apathetic
on that account. Go out to the
polls and. see that all of your
democratic neighbors go and
vote. Let's make the majority
in this county so big that it will
deter the republicans from put
ting up a ticket next time.
Let's give an old-time majority
of 900. We can do in if we all
so determine.
The national government is
democratic for the first time in
many decades, and it is fulfilling
its promises to the people in a
way that is making it possible
for the laboring people to once
again prosper. 1t is a genuine,
old-time democrftic administra-
ton with honest, capable men
at the helm, and we are begin
ming upon an era of prosperity
for the farmer and laborer.
The state administration of
Kentucky is democratic and the
democratic party of this State
is seeking to bring about, many
reforms that will directly aid
and effect the farmers and la
borers of our native state. 1t is
seeking to so amend the tax
laws so that the property of the
rich and of the corporations, that
have heretofore escaped the JUS
portion of taxation, will be dis
covered and taxed equally will
the property of the farmer ant
the laborer. Corporations ant
associations which derive thei
franchises and rights from tn,
people which engage in bust
mess of a public nature ant
which have been unjustly filch
ing vast sums from the people
will be made to pay taxes on tn,
franchises that they enjoy b!
reason of the peoples consent
The policy of the democrati,
: party is, and ever has been, {,
! put as low a rate of taxation a
) is consistent with the actua
needs of good government, an,
to equalize the burden of taxa
tion on rich and poor alike.
To successfully carry out thi
program it is necessary that W
elect a democratic House an,
Senate in the next General As
sembly. This district is YER
closely divided between the tw
o parties. If the other four cour
$ ties in the district vote out thei
: normal party vote it will requir

y county to elect me. So you Sc

School Notes.
BY Arnold H. Webb.

DT hluVlu lie WGpu'
Monday after the institute, the
West Liberty Graded and High
School took up the regular work
again. 1t seems almost like be-
ginning new again, but it was
not long until we were fully in
step.
AS school progresses, we be-
come more fully aware Of the
fact that here in West Liberty,
as in other places, parents do
not appreciate the opportunities
afforded their children as they
should Il do not mean all the
parents.) Some parents seem
to have the idea that children
can consult their own conven-
ience in regard to an education.
Some children would act wisely,
but the majority Of them will
not act wisely. They do not
realize what life means and that
a struggle is before them. You
WOuld not for a moment think of
permitting your boy or girl to-
leave home and attempt to pro-
vide for themselves at the age
when you allow them to decide
for themselves about securing an
education or not securing it.
You say, and rightly so, that
they cannot succeed in providing
for themselves as they should be
provided for; and | say that if
they are not wise enough to sup
port themselves, they are not able
to determine wisely about their
future. Then whose dhty is it
to determine and to execute? 1t
is the duty of the parents to
both determine and act, and if
they do not do their duty, they
have not only sinned against the
child, but against God and the
State. Against God in so much
as you have not caused the mind
that he has given the boy or girl
to be cultivated; and against the
state in so much as you are al
lowing voters to grow up, who
are ignorant of the principles of
| free and Just government. Fhis
country is not in danger from
other nations, but it is in danger
from within. We have forces
undermining our system that on
! ly the most intelligent action on
the part of the masses can coun.
teract. Graft and corruption ir
politics and government can only
be eradicated by being price
pried into by an intelligent anC
honest citizenship.
Now it is not only the parents
duty to enforce attendance il
school, but also to take interes
in their progress. We have thC
child only for a few hours pc
day, you have him at least TIVE
thirds of the day. You hav,
him in a way that the teache
never has. You have the di
rection of his or her affairs, ant
there is no power under HEAVIER
that can say you nay. But i
you fail in a wise direction o
your children, you are laying tn
foundation for their ruin.
| have heard parents complain
Of the fact that they could no
secure obedience from their bo
or girl who were not older thar
twelve. What does such condi
tion mean? 1t means the be
trayal of a sacred trust. 1t
J laying the foundation for heart
| aches and failures. 1t is tn
switching of a life from the roa
/ to honor and success to that of
criminal. Disrespect for tn
laws of God and man is frs
planted in the mind of the chill
by allowing it to disrespect tn
. rules at home. 1t is begun ther
and nowhere else.
