W00DSON and
HAGER WARRING
0wensboro Editors lab Each
Other In Vicious
Manner.

Owensboro, KY, May 1.-TWO
Democratic editors, Urey Woodson, of
the Messenger, and Judge S. W..
Hager of the Inquirer, have been
pummeling each other editorially for
a week. Some very uncomplimentary
things are being printed. Woodson,
who was formally Secretary Of the
National Democratic Committee, says
Judge Hager is a "Dick Knott Demo-
crat," and that every party man who
does not see the way he does is
dominated by the liquor element"
Judge Hager has replied. Under an
editorial captioned always a Knock
err" and among other things, he
says:
"The editor OF the Messener has
an unenviable reputation as knock
er on everything and everybody not
dominated by him, at home and away
from home.
'It matters not how meritorious a
man or thing may be, he must be
asked to give his sanction, and that
can not be obtained except as he is
allowed to be undisputed master. He
has never stood for anything that
meant the uplift of Owensboro, be-
cause his chief occupation is not up
lifting meritorous things but knock
ing them.
"His specially is politics and he
would sacrifice his best friend IL it
would aid him in any Of his political
undertakings. He will feign friend
ship for a person in order to gain
that persons help at crucial time,
when his political fortunes are in
great jeopardy, and Immediately he
wins through this feined friendship
he tosses the men who aided him in
to the political discard and turns upon
them his batteries of abuse. He has
treated friends thus right here in
Owensboro and within the recent
past. He has since abused men who
saved his scalp in the Democratic
convention at Owensboro, which elect.
ed delegates to the district and State
conventions, just prior to the Balti-
more. convention.
"Not only does he turn against
friends at home who help him, but hi
is equally as ungrateful to those ol
national prominence that have really
secured for him all the political hon
ors he has ever had. He knows, ant
everybody In Owensboro knows, tina
but for the friendship of William
Bryan. the owner of the Messenge
would never have reached any dis
tinctiOn as a national character d
politics. Bryan once believed in him
but the Nebraskan was not to b
continuously fooled by the deceptiv
mask Of the political hypocrite, an
he let the National Committeemal
from Kentucky drop. He couldn'
stand for alliances the Owensbora
had made"
There Is no telling what the out
come will be. The Inquirer, unde
the management Of Judge Hager, ha
struck a stride most progressive. Hi
paper is on record for municipality
owned utilities. The idea is oppose
