Not New to Us.

Former Circuit Judge Allie w
Young, of Morehead, now chief
counsel for one OF the largest
coal corporations operating in
Kentucky, was one of the Dem
ocratic leaders who attended the
unwilling of the William Goebel
monument at Frankfort last
Wednesday. Il am not just now
on good terms with that man, "
remarked another strong Demo
crat as Judge Young passed his
view, but l want you to know
that in a short while he is going
to be the most powerful politi-
clan that the mountains of Ken
lucky have ever known. He is
astute and he is fearless. He
knows the political game from \
10 Z, and he has a pleasant,
forceful way of getting men to
enlist under his banner. Those
big coal companies have brought
thousands Of men into eastern
Kentucky, and they will bring
thousands more during the next
few years, and you may rest as
sured that 90 per cent. of them
will be Allie Youngs friends,
and that he will know for whom
they will vote. John c. c. Mayo
and Rufus Vansant are strong
men in the Democracy of the
mountains, but Allie Young is
going to be politically stronger
than either of them. Cincinnati

One Of our most estimable
readers, whose only fault, from
our point Of view, is his fond
ness for the G. O. p, strenously
objects to the presence of the old

appeared so long at the head OF

we are constrained to believe
there is 70 necessity for his
presence, except during cam
paigns and out Of Difference for
those who differ with us, we
have concluded to give the Ad-

Mt. Sterling, KY,
Dear sir:
In looking over the route card
of the Prince of Tonight Co., |
see they play your city. We
played them two years ago and
they gave good satisfaction,
again last Wednesday my audi
ence was moro than pleased and
was highly complimented as the
show being so much better than
the season before.
| make it point after each
performance to stand in my lob
by to ask different ones their
opinion of the attraction played.
l never had one but spoke in the
highest praise of the Prince of
Tonight.
l think you would be like my
self if you were personally as
sured from a disinterested party
that a show was good you would
put more life in boosting it up to
your patrons. l will say that
you cannot praise this attraction
too high.
Yours truly,

If the statue of "the martyred
Goebel' could speak, wonder
what it would have to say to and
of the politicians who have been
trading on their professed loyalty
to Goebel's memory to build up
political machines with the sim
gle object of personal prefer
ment? AS we recall it, Goebels
platform was loyalty to the
