Edwin p. Morrow, the Republican
nominee for governor, opened his
campaign at Bowling Green Monday,
and from Democratic newspaper re-
ports the crowd must have been all
that could have been desired. The
speech is a masterful arraignment of
the mismanagement of Kentucky's
affairs by the Democrats. 1t is SIM
ply unanswerable. His specific
charges against Supt. Hamlet, who
is now the nominee for Secretary of
State, are astounding and will pro-
duce a sensation. The enormous in
crease in the State debt, with raise
in salaries and increase in needless
Offices cannot be denied by Mr.. Stan
ley, for he has already made the same
charges in his primary campaign.
Now he is running on a ticket made
up largely of the men who have
hleped deplete the Treasury and are
simply rotating from one job to an
other.

Why should the Democratic plat
form makers attempt to take all the
credit for the State law giving aid to
counties for road building? The law
was introduced and championed by a
Republican and voted for by almost
all Republicans in the General AS
sembly. Besides it was advocated
by their 1911 platform. Unless it
is well administered there will be
no credit for anyone. This is when
it may be made blessing or an inju-
ry. The bare law itself merely rails
es the taxes of every tax payer in
Kentucky five cents on the hundred
dollars worth of taxable property.
We have heard it charged that the
fund is being consumed by an army
of boy civil engineers on high salar-
les, and that the work is being him
dered, or stopped, in many places by
their whims and hair splitting decis-
ions. 1t may be too soon to claim
credit for this measure, or at least
for its administration. We may
have to class these Assistant Road
Engineers, employed at the expense
of this road fund, along with Mr..
SANKEY'S Deputy Fire Marshals, whom
described as infesting the State
like a gang of buzzards.

In all our observations of Demo
cratic conventions we have never seen
one so void of enthusiasm as the
platformless convention which broke
up in a riot. The biggest Man in
the United States Senator Ollie
James, used all his vocal power and
campaign genius to start the needed
enthusiasm but it came not; he
spoke of the great constructive leg
islation but the usually faithful
horde could recalfs only the soup
houses of last winter and the thous-
ands of idle people now roaming the
streets of cities, hungry and jobless,
while the country abounds in rich
harvests, and green vegetables are
more plentiful than ever before but
beyond the reach of the man out of
work. They could recall having seen
this summer green beans being Of
fered at 15c per bushel, potatoes at
s1.25 per barrel and cabbage and
onions around soc per barrel and
hearing the complaints of the market
men that his receipts were insufficient
to pay the hauling. No applause
came. The great voice Of "the Big
gest" reverberated through the hall
and fell on the audience like wet
blanket, much, we ragine as have
the efforts of the Russian generals
when trying to rally their army to
stay inevitable defeat.
1t remained for Senator Beckham
to give them a chance to show the
real spirit which lowered in the bos-
oms of the host and until he appeared
their temperature was below normal
and they had refused to salute the
flag, but when reused by him with the
proposition that "Watchful Wait
ing" was the advice of the ninety
five thousand Democrats who voted
against Stanley, the whiskey candi-
date, they fired on it with a ven
geance and pandemonium reigned.
A torpedo had been launched from

other reasons, Colonel. While Ow-

or not it could hold Democratic Ma

The war trade is merely a stop
gap. With return of peace we shall
be just as we were before. subject to
whatever impairment OF energy and
resources our belligerent competitors
may have suffered.
Let no one deceive himself. No
destruction by war is possible which
will not be replaced by year or
two of peace. And if one imagines
that the prodigious debts which will
be outstanding will impair ability to
compete in trade, let him remember
that it is only by increased energy
in industry and trade can those debts
be met, and that both the nations
and their creditors will agree in fl
nancing the means of paying debt

The following from the Hartford
Herald is unfair and entirely misrep
resents this paper:
The Hartford Republican goes
out of its way and without cause
makes an unkind personal attack
upon Messrs. Birkhead and Rim
go-the former Through the
Owensboro News) because he did
not call special term of court
to investigate alleged election
Irregularities, and the latter
because his attorneys invoked
the plain letter of the law in his
defense of Tanners contest suit
Judge Birkhead called a special
panel of the grand jury, which
has just adjourned, TO investi-
gate all kinds of wrongdoing.
The editor of the Republican is
lawyer. He must know that
after the statute had been cited
in the Tanner-Ringo contest suit
there was no basis no suit
upon which to continue action
in the matter, as the presiding
Judge ruled.
AS all our readers know, we made
no personal" attack on either Judge
Birkhead or Mr.. Ringo. We copied
and article from the greensboro News
which made certain charges against
the Judge and in am editorial we call

personal attack on him? Under its

anyone, and will never do so. But is

NO PLATFORM IS
ADOPTED BY DEMOCRATS
Convention Adjourns in Disorder
Without Acting on Report
Of Committee.

II is claimed by many persons
present that the Democratic Con-
vention Tuesday adjourned without
adopting a platform.
At first glance the idea of a plat
form convention failing to adopt a
platform seems too absurd for cred
ence, but conditions will elucidate.
The committee on permanent or
ganization reported not ready and
Senator James suggested, in order to
save time, the reading of the report
of the committee on resolutions. Az
ter the reading of that report a del
egate moved to postpone further ac-
ton on 1t as the committee on per-
manent organization was ready to re-
port. Motion agreed to. In fact
the platform could not be adopted
before the permanent organization
was affected.
Report of the committee on perma-
nent organization read and apopted.
Prof. II. II. Cherry introduced as
permanent chairman and speaks to
the convention. after which Senator
James and several members of the
platform committee spoke for the
resolutions. Speeches by Stanley,
Cohen and others followed. but in
the meantime Senator Beckham. who
had not been in attendance at the
night session, came i'm and was in
troduced to the convention. Up TO
this time the well oiled steam roller
had not creaked or slipped a cog.
Stanley had personally directed every
movement. The body of the dele
gates know little and care less about
what was being done. The removal
of national committeeman, Trey
Woodson, State Chairman Vansant
and w. b. White and A. G. Rhea,
members at large OF the State Gen.
trail Committee, the most unpreced-
ented and high-handed political rob-
berry ever attempted by a convention
was made without voice of protest.
Senator Beckham is a skilled politi-
clan, and seeing his party headed for
the rocks he moved to reconsider the |
death sentence it had just passed up
on itself in removing from its leader
ship its most trusted generals. Then |

The War Takes the Place OF "a Tariff.

The War Takes the Place OF Tariff.
AS to the home market the war
takes the place of a Tariff, and a
very high Tariff at that. Before the
war important lines of American
manufacture were suffering greatly
from the effects of the Democratic
Tariff and the weakest seemed likely
to be forced out of business. The
holding of our domestic markets will
be a matter of legislation.
So will the foreign trade, for that
matter, but assuming legislation
which will put Americans on an
equality with foreign competitors,
there will still be serious problems.
Trade in war materials is profit
able while il lasts. but a sudden
peace would disorganize American in
dustry almost as badly as the out
break of the war. What would

ing powder and shot If peace were de-

many Ohio county people know, is
not the worst one published by that

Mr.. Ringo was not bound by the

mt have to rely on technicality. He
should have courted an investigation.
This was no ordinary law suit. His
opponent had charged that he had
secured his nomination by fraud and
bribery. Mr.. Ringo escaped the tes-
timony by taking advantage of a
technicality. Now, Mr.. Herald, this
is no personal attack on Mr.. Ringo or
Judge Birkhead. AS we have stated
heretofore,we are personally fond of
both of them. However, they are
both asking the people to continue
them in Office eighteen years. We
think we have a right to at least no.

their conduct in obtaining their NOM
