Extract From Speech of Col.
Bennett H. YOUNG.

In his speech at Newcastle, on July 6,
in his race for the short term for U. s.
Senator, Col. Young calls on Mr.. Cam
den to define his attitude in politics. Fol-
lowing is an excerpt from his speech:
'It is useless tor me to tell you where
shall stand in the Senate on all ques-
tions. The Democratic platform is good
enough ior me. President Woodrow
Wilson has shown himself to be great
statesman. Maybe in detail every Dem
ocrat will not agree with him, but he is
honest and brave; loyal to the underly-
ing principles of Democratic faith. He
has been true to the party promises made
in the platform, and if shall be allow
ed to sit in the Senate | will aid him in
his endeavors, not only to keep Demo
cratic pledges to the people of this coun-
try, but hold up his hands in his patient
and wise efforts to avoid the awful loss
es of life and the millions of expendit-
ures in war with our sister Republic,
Mexico.
THE name of William Jennings
Bryan touches with quickening power
the minds and hearts of a vast majority
of Democratic voters, not only in Ken
lucky, but throughout the Nation. There
are here and there some ideas of Mr..
Bryan's that all Democrats do not ap-
prove. but-he received more votes than
President Wilson, and his influence in
the administration of President Wilson
has been far-reaching and he is now gen.
orally recognized as one of the most
brilliant and eloquent men that America
has produced.
I'm Kentucky a large percentage of
Democratic voters look upon Mr.. Bryan
as one of the greatest leaders of thoug hi
and action who has appeared in the po-
litical arena in the last so years. 1t is
persistently rumored and constantly as
serted in Mr.. Camden's own county that
he has never voted for Mr.. Bryan and
declined to take any part in any conven-
tions where he was likely to be candi-
date for the Presidency. | would under
no conditions in this matter do Mr.. Cam
den an injustice, but he owes it to the
Democratic voters of Kentucky to say
whether or not he has ever voted for Mr.
Bryan upon any of the occasions wher
the party made him its leader and stand
ard-bearer. IfMr. Camden will say tha
he did vote for Mr. Bryan, | shall be on
ly too glad wherever speak to correc
anY such rumor or impression.n

AChild Has Rights.

Everyone knows the capacity of a
child for asking questions, but it is not
everyone who recognizes that the child
has any natural rights in the matter. A
writer says child has a right to ask
questions and to be fairly answered.; not
to be sIubbed as if he were guilty of an
impertinence. nor ignored, as though his
desire for information were of no conse-
quence; nor misled as if it did not sig
nify whether true or false impressions
were made upon his mind. He has a
right to be taught everything he desires
to learn and to be made certain when
asked for information, il withheld, that
it is only deferred until he is older and
better prepared to receive it. Answer
ing a child's question is sowing the seed
of future character-The Harrodsburg
Leader.

"A Combination Against
Wilson.

Half way between Presidential cam
paigns. the Republican party is witho nj
a candidate or an issue. and the Pro-
gressives have candidate and an issue,
but no party. There is an old tale of q
man who could not walk, who climbed
upon the shoulders of man who could
not see, and one furnishing the motive
power, and the other the power of di-
rection, the two cripples reached their
destination. Naturally. some of the Re-
publicans and Progressives are now hop
ing to mount the far-seeing Roosevelt
upon the shoulders of the blind Repub
lican party, and so beat Mr.. Wilson in
the next race.
We don't belive the combination will
prove as successful as the com bination
of the lame man and the blind in the
fable. 1t is easy enough for politi.
clans to frame a terrible indictment
against the Democratic Administration
to-day, but will it look like true bill
two years hence? The new tariff has
not flooded the country with foreign
goods, and when the railroads get the
freight advances they ask for, or begin
to feel the slim ulas of the huge crops,
they will buy freely, and the very mod
crate dullness of the present momen,
will be forgotten.
Two years hence the country will have
had two ears experience with bank
ing system as much superior TO what
preceded it as the national bank system
of half century ago was. Perfect amIty
will have been restored to our Colon biar
relations, and the very large part of the
American people who do not approve ol
Mr.. Roosevelt's Panama conduct will
feel that an unpleasant spot has been
erased from the nations fame. The
present indications are that in 1916 Mex.
leo will be peaceful and prosperous, the
poems having access to the land, and the
general Government representing public
instead of combination Of military des
potism and financial monopoly. The
great trusts in our own country will have
been disintegrated, with the result of in.
creasing the prosperity of their compo-
nent parts, and of the country at large,
and of opening the gates 10 widespread
and healthful competitor.
What will Republican Progressive
combination avail against such record

Spirit of 76.

Governor James Bennett McCreary is
76 years old today, or rather, one should
say. 76 years young" for like Lillian
Russell he seems to have discovered the
Fountain of Eternal Youth. which Ponce
de-Leon searched for in vain At any
rate the latest pictures of the Governor,
which are appearing in the newspapers
now, show him looking as young as
when he was the States Chief Execu-
tive thirty-five years ago. II this doesn't
prove that the Governor has bathed in
the tabled fountain, it has at any rate
had the effect of convincing his friends
that he is not superapuated by any man.
ner of means. Gladstone was still a
power in public life at so, and the friends
of the Madison county statesman aver
that he, too. is like old wine-improves
with age.-Lexington Leader.

Sunburn And Tan.

One who comes back from a summer
vacation without what is commonly
called good healthy tan is regarded
as not having taken full advantage of his
opportunities. Most people feel that in
getting themselves well tanned they
have done something gmeritorious-some-
thing that, in an obscure way, is bene-
fetal to their health and well-being. So
strong is the superstition that people
will sometimes voluntarily submit their
arms and faces to painful sunburn, and
rejoice in the subsequent mahoganizing
of their skin. AS a matter of fact, there
is no special virtue in coat o: tan. 1t
is the protection that unaided nature al
tempts to supply to the skin when it is
attacted by the damaging ultraviolet
rays. IL filters the sunlight, and in that
way weakons or eliminates the force of
pelling nature to take these preven-
tive measures. a sun hat of light
brown or green will perform the same
service more efficiently.
The ultra violet rays have the merit
of destroying germs; but few persons, it
may be believed, feel it necessary TO ac-
quire coat of tan for that purpose.
In hot weather, it is we'll known. the
color of clothes is important. Certain
clothes heighten discomfort; others grea-
ly reduce it. Anyone freely exposed in
very hot weather to the red rays is apt
to suffer from over-excited nerves; in
fact, to these rays most cases of sun
stroke may be attributed. Red clothing
offers them free passage, and is there
fore not desirable. Blue is also unde-
sirable. for it offers no protection against
the ultraviolet rays. Green is of all col
ors the coolest and most restful. The
most comfortable rooms IN hot weather
are those decorated in green. They have
the further advantage of being, for some
reason, especially unattractive to the
house hy.-Youths' Companion.
