Ex-Gov. J. c. w. Beckham spoke In
the Y. NJ. C. A. building in Fleming,
the new city, in Letcher County,
Thursday night, in the interest OF his
candidacy for the United States Sen
ate. and handled the issues in force
full, splendid manner. The crowd was
made UP of both Democrats and Re-
publicans. That Mr.. Beckham is un-
usually popular in Eastern Kentucky,
there is on question. Letcher County
will give him a large majority; in fact
both the McCreary and Stanley fol.
lowers predict that Beckham will get
as many votes as both of them. The
same is true OF other mountain coun
ties. All along is true Of other
mountain counties. All along the
route OF the Lexington & Eastern

HON. G. M. THOMAS REPLIES
TO THE HON. J. c. CANTRILL

Hon. G.. M. Thomas late Saturday
afternoon issued the following reply
to the letter of Congressman Cantrill
published in Fridays newspapers:
ITO the Democrats of the Seventh
Congressional District:
THE Honorable ]. Campbell Can
trill has sisued a statement through
the press in which he finds fault with
me for failing, in announcing myself
a candidate for Congress, to renew
my allegiance to the Baltimore plat
form, and boastfully proclaims, as if
appealing to Democrats to look and
see for themselves, that he is actual
ly for once in line with the expressed
will and judgment and temperament
of his party.
Nov the gentleman is perfectly
aware, as is every one acquainted
with the facts, that no individual has
ever questioned my absolute loyalty
to my party and to it's nominee,
can not help thinking that the gentle
mans present attitude is assumed and
proclaimed for the purpose Of kicking
up sufficient dust to obscure his stand
with reference to party affairs in the
not very distant past.
How Beckham Was Defeated.
ct is very generally understood
that a great Democrat, his party S
nominee for the United States Senate
was defeated a few years ago and q
Republican elected in his place
through the agency of this gentleman
who now so loudly proclaims himself
an advocate of his party's platform.
Governor Beckham, in a State
wide primary, received the Demo
cratic nomination for United States
| Senator. He was entitled to the sup
port, not only OF every Democratic
member of the General Assembly tt
which his nomination was referred
but it was his due to have the loya
sympathy and aid Of every individual
Democrat within the borders OF Ken
lucky, whether a member OF the AS
! semblyeOr not.

cratic caucus Of that body laboret
