While the Republicans and Pro-
gressives are dividing theRepublican
vote and the election of the Demo-
cratic nominees seem certain. it will
not do to take anything for granted
in a political contest The Repub-
Leans as a rule vote early and often
and il behooves the Democratic
voters TO go to the polls and cast
their vote for the nominees. That
is the only way TO make victory
sure More political battles are lost
by Over-confidence than from any
other cause.

We have il from one OF the lead
ing Baptists of Hartford that the
members OF his church throughout
Ohio county are especially thankful
to the Hartford Republican for in
forming them that Gus Wilson is
not a member Of the Baptist church.
The Republican says that although
Wilson tries to make it appear that
he is a member Of the Baptist church
by saying he was raised a Baptist
that in reality he belongs to no
church.

A strange thing happened in
Louisville last week. A saloon keep
er petitioned the court to allow him
the custody of his little son, by his
former wife who is now married
again. on the plea that the present
husband OF his erstwhile spouse
drinks liquor. Evidently the saloon
keeper knows just what kind of
father whiskey makes of a man. In
cidentally the saloon keeper might
remember that there are other faith
ers and few other step-fathers be-
sides this one, in the city.

There must be something radically
wrong with Gus Wilson when prac-
tically all the leaders of the Repub-
lican party condemn him as untrust-
worthy and inefficient They regard
him as a shallow, selfish politician,
lacking in sincerity and ability. In
the reorganization of the Republican
party, they are realizing the neces-
sity of getting rid of the old react
ionary office-holders like Wilson
who has lost the confidence of the
people. IL is a modest estimate to
say that Gus Wilson will run $4,000
votes behind his ticket.

When Augustus f. Wilson ran
for Governor he had great crowds
to hear him speak and hundreds of
Democrats voted for him. This year
his speeches have been frost and
audiences have been most disheart-
ening in point of numbers and lack
OF enthusiasm. At Greenup the 9TH
er day. although he had been adver-
tised for weeks. the Republican
Committee, could not get as many as
40 people to attend his meeting. At
other points in the same county he
had as few as 9 people to hear him
speak. If the frosts that have de-
scended upon Wilson had fallen up
on the crops of the State. Kentucky
would be bankrupt and its people
would perish of starvation.
