BEDFORD, KY, March 25.-The
Honorable Claude B. Terrell, of Trim
Bile County, today announced himself
q candidate for the Democratic nomi-
nation for State Treasurer in the
State primary Of August 4, next. He
will make an active campaign for the
nomination.
Mr.. Z Terrell is one Of the best
known Of the younger Democrats, who
have been active in politics and pub
lie life during the last few years, and
enjoys an acquaintance that covers
every section Of Kentucky. He is a
.rsx~s<< r,nro,>an.n.s,s Fsa.s.s.sH..-s.@,s -
l..e. clSit and banker INNS
2, .ai6 town. He has served the Trim
BILE and Oldham District in the Gen.
eral Assembly of Kentucky on three
occasions, twice without opposition,
and serving at two sessions as
Speaker of the House Of Representa-
tives.
Mr.. Terrell first entered State poll
tics In the memorable legislative ses.
sion of 1900, when the Goebel contest
was before that body. He was a
member of the Rules Committee OF
the House, one of the most important
positions at that time, and in the
gubernatorial contest, following the
assassination Of Governor Goebel, he
was a member of the Steering Com
mittee of the Democratic organiza
ton in the lower House. He was one
OF the five men of that body who
kept its records intact during the days
when W. S. Taylor prevented the Gen
eral Assembly from meeting at the
Capitol, and preserved those records
80 that they were later upheld in the
courts of Kentucky.
Mr.. Terrell came back to the legis
lative session Of 1912, and because OF
his former experience was easily
elected Speaker OF the House. He
was returned by his district to the
session of 1914, Oldham County Dem
ocrats setting aside the custom Of
rotation In order that he might b'
thus signally honored, and he wa!
reelected to the Speakership without
opposition In the House. AS presid
ing officer Of the lower House he haC
much to do with the enactment Of
important legislation during the ses
sions of 1912 and 1914.
