London, May l5---A pauper of sixty
Augustus West by name, who became
an inmate OF Wandsworth Infirmary
theo ther day, claims to be a direct
descendant Of George II. He declares
that his grandmother was Princess
Lavinia' OF Cumberland, who died in
1871 after unseccussefully appealing
to Queen Victoria for recognition of
her claim to be of royal blood.
The Cumberland claim was first
made in 1917. when a Mrs Olive Ser
ros alleged that she was the daughter
of Henry Duke of Cumberland, brother
Of George III, and grandson Of George
H. The question was raised in the
house of commons, but her claim was
rejected, and she died in 1884 Her
daughter lavinia's subsequent efforts
to establish her royal lineage were
supported by many famous men.

Democratic speakers urging upon the
people the necessity for going to the
polls and voting to uphold President
Wilson and his peace policies for the
American people.
The one feature of Chairman Rhea's
campaign which particularly stands out
in the political battle just won was in
his handling of the political situation
in the city of Louisville and the Fifth
Congressional district. Confronted
when he undertook to make the party
campaign with the fact that the head
of the ticket had lost Louisville in
the primary last August, and coming
out of that city in the election of
Tuesday with over twelve thousand
majority for that nominee, Democratic
hats are off to their chairman. Fur
Their, he had to deal with the fact that
Louisville had had the habit for sew
eral years past of only weakly sup
porting Democratic candidates and
very often giving majority against
them at the polls. Out of all of this
he brought a result that far sur
passed the expectations of those who
were associated with him in the fight,
the largest Democratic majority the
Fifth district has given in over quar-.
ter OF a century.
The same clever methods that
brought this about in Louisville
served as we'll in pretty nearly every
section of the state in the election
of Tuesday. Every Congressional dis
trict worked tremendously with the
State Chairman, and in every one of
them the vote was nearly such as it
would have been with local races on
in the counties.
That the victory just achieved
paves the way for Democratic success
in the State election of next year is
the opinion of the party leaders and
every one conversant with political
affairs in Kentucky. 1t demonstrates,
they say, that the party is harmonious
and united.
