What Is The |ssue?!

Under tits heading. we propose
to notice some of the ems, dis
cussed as an issue between the
candidates for Con gressmen in the
Eleventh district
Senator Bosworth, who spoke
in Mt. Vernon recently. referred
incidentally to the tariff, to the
fact that he had brother who is
a Democrat, to the arrest Of II n.
Z. ). Powers in connection with
what the Senator : brother did or
didn't do in the matter and also,

Kentucky history detailing the
deplordble Incidents that led up 10
the arrest of Caleb S. Powers.
1t is unfortunate for us; citizens
and voters of the eleventh district
that the discussion of such
themes serve to boost any man
aspiring to Ofies within our gift.
We uigress for moment to in
quire what prestige or what
qualifying fitness men are entitled
to claim by reason Of their partici
patton in the incidents referred to
Viz. The arrest, incarceration.
trial and conviction of Hon. &. S.
Powers or Senator Bos worth'S re
lation to his brother, or any thing
the latter did or didn't do ia the
arrest of the former.
This chapter. and all the deplor-
able incidents connected there
with ought to be relegated to the
dump heap of oblivion.
We grant You fellow citizens
that the Tariff is an issue always
has been. and always will be, till
the principles involved are prop
erly understood and judiciously
applied in justice and equity to
the entire people Of our country
and the world.
Therefore Mr.. BoswOrth or Mr.
Powers will be in their line of
duty, when intelligently discuss
ing the tariff question and its
bearing on the rich and poor, the
high and low, the multi-million-
aire and the day laborer.
Good Roads has been, a hob
by in politics that has been rid
den too much, to be fresh and
vigorous and such clashes as it
has been forced to engage in.
1t is not an issue in this cam
paign, as every one is in favor of
1t who is capable of doing some
independent thinking.
The liquor question like the tar
iff is vital, it is therefore the duty
OF voters TO understand what
candidates attitude is toward it,
whether he favors the manufac
ture and sale o. l. or otherwise.
