HOME PAPERS
AND THE PEOPLE

One man in a hundred reads :
book; ninety-nine in a hundred reads
a newspaper. Nearly a century ago,
when the American Press. which Is
now a spreading oak, was III its gree1
twig. Thomas Jefferson said he would
rather live III a country with news
papers and without government, than
in a country with a government and
without newspapers. At the begin
ming Of 1913 resolve to at least say a
good word for your home papers.

Before the primary, each candi-
date should commit himself to a
written declaration. If he stands
for nothing he is not entitled to
a vote.
1t may be claimed that in many
of the offices, the duties are
purely ministerial; therefore,
no declaration is necessary. Not
so. The administrative machin-
cry of the county is but the in
strument to carry out the general
policies of a party in power and
as such officers each should be in
full sympathy withits plans and
purposes. In county affairs, each
officer from Constable to County
Judge, is an agent selected for
the purpose of securing to the
county the best government at
the least cost. Therefore the
gentlemen who want to conduct
the affairs of the Grand Old
County of Madison and the Beau
tiful City of Richmond for the
next four years, should speak out.
Otherwise it will be taken for
granted that they stand for moth
ing but the offices.
The Madisonian is listening.

THE STATE COLLEGE

This Institution, located at
Lexington, has been in the lime
light for some years. The dis
graceful things which have oc-
CURED there are fresh in the
memory of the people. The con-
troversy now on between the
school and the city as to the
establishment of saloons in the
400 feet limit, has grown bitter
and has been taken to the courts.
Judge Scott now has the matter
under Amusement. The "wets"
claim that the law is unconstitu-
tional,
The Special Act of 1912 pro-
hibiting the granting of whisky
licenses Within 400 feet of any
State University or any School
owned by the State in whole or
in part" is clearly constitutional.
It's in the power of the State to
withhold such licenses altogether
and the granting of a license can
not be demanded as a matter of
right. The State can select the
territory in which If will hermit
the sale of liquor or prohibit it.
1t merely exercised. its proper
police power in this act.
If the City of Lexington can
not or will not protect the Uni
versity, why not move it? Judge
Barker, it's president, advocates
moving it to Louisville. That's
Jumping from the frying pan
into the fire."
What fight the good people
of the State have against the
liquor traffic and its allies!
Why not settle the matter by
passing law prohibiting any one
from attending the State Uni
versity, the Normal Schools or
any other school, who wastes his
time drinking and carousing
around? The people pay for the
maintenance of these institutions
and they are not in a mood just
now to be trifled with by a lot of
hoodlums. Nor do the Institu-
tons want such characters in at
tendance.

DECLARE YOURSELVES

Since all nominations must
now be made by a primary cleo
ton, the time honored custom of
writing party platforms must of
necessity, cease unless, indeed,
the candidates themselves meet
and make a declaration of prin-
ciples either before or after nomi-
nation. Thus we may be called
on to vote for or against a man,
not knowing for what he stands
affirmatively or to what he is OPP
posed. 1t reduces itself at once
to a simple proposition of getting
an office. In other words the
ms want to stay in and the Outs
want to get in. The ms cry for
an endorsement although there
is nothing to endorse except the
fact that they drew their salaries
promptly. The Outs propose
nothing.
The people are not required to
act blindly. Men who seek an
office, either city, county, state
or national, should be willing to
state in writing the things for
which they stand. The County
Committee should see to it that
an opportunity is given to the
candidates to declare generally
or individually their policies.

Mr.. A. D. Miller to Make The
Race For Representative
Editor Register:

Editor Register:
Having read in your
paper of some weeks ago call signed
"a Number of Democrats, urging me
10 make the race for the nomination
for Representative of Madison county,
use the same medium to express to
those responsible for this compliment
to me my hearty appreciation of this
confidence and respect. After careful
consideration and consultation with
quite a number of our hes. known citi-
zens of the city and county, now ac-
cede to the wishes of many democrats
and announce my candidacy for the
nomination for Representative at the
primary election to be held on the End
day of August, 1913.
have the praiseworthy ambition 70
serve my county in this responsible of
flee If elected shall regard my office
as a public trust and will honestly and
zealousiy guard the interests of the tax
payers and of all the people.
Having cast my lot and become a citi-
zen OF Madison county some eighteen
years ago. young man with no means,
vet with ambition, have realized the
importance and need of economy, which.
with kind words and support from
friends and the public, has at least plac-
ed me in a comfortable living condition.
In governmental affairs economy must
be practiced as in the affairs of individ-
uals, and it will be my policy to pick
way in a clear light in order that pru-
dent economy may be carefully practic-
ed without leading us into short-Sght-
ed stinginess.
Not knowing at this time what our
farmers and other citizens hope TO get
in the way of legislation from the next
General Assembly, feel to write plat
form would be out of place, yet all may
expect me to be active in behalf of our
citizens, and always for those measures
in which our people are interested.
Fifteen years ago became identified
with one of your democratic newspa
pers and have fought for the party dur
ing days that were dark and gloomy. as
we'll as in prosperity, and in addition,
have contributed from my purse TO pro-
mote the interests of the party which
| have had the pleasure of serving these
years. yet do not feel that this service
alone should cause the democrats Of
this city and county to support me in
this race. Unless the voters of Madison
believe that will be faithful to the
trust and truly represent them at Frank
fort, then would be unworthy of their
support.
To fill this high and useful office is
the heighth of my ambition. and | shall
strive 10 do my duty in subj way that
my children, after I have passed on,
shall always be able to take some pride.
Soliciting the support and influence
of all democrats in Madison county,
shall from this date begin an active
canvass for The nomination for seat in
the House of the next General Assem-
bly,. Truly, Your Servant,

Inc sum is so StupendOuS as
to pass comprehension.
Let us again make some figures.
This sum parcelled out among
the ninety millions of people in
the United States, makes per
capita of $12.44. AS the average
family consists of five persons it
is evident that each family con-
tributes to this the sum of 1920.
To bring it home to us in a lump
sum, Madison, with its 10000 in
habitantS, pays tribute to the
National Government in the sum
of $373,200 annually. Yet some
people say that the people are
not taxed! 1t is true that the
sheriff does not collect this tax.
Yet you pay it on everything that
you eat and wear. 1t is collected
in the form of tariff and excise
taxes.
Added to this enormous bur-
den, come the State, County,
City and School taxes, amount
ing approximately to more than
the sums of one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars. The as
Sessed value of the property of
Madison county is the sum of
thirteen million dollars in round
numbers. A simple calculation
shows that our people bear a
burden of nearly $500 per hum
dred dollars of property.
The people are greatly OPP
pressed by this grevious burden.
They demand relief and relief
they will have.
The candidates for the office of
Representative must state plain
Iy for what they stand in the
way of relief. Its no time to
bubble.
In this connection we wish to
state that we make no assault on
the county administration. 1t is
