MAY NOT PASS SHIP BILL
Senate Not Likely to Pass Measure at
This Session.

Washington, Feb. 3.-The admins
tration ship purchase bill is still in a
tangle, with the chances against its
being put on the statute books at this
session of congress.
The administration leaders in the
senate in maneuvering for votes were
seeking to appease the seven Demo
cratic insurgents by conceding an
amendment which would limit the gov
arnment's participation in the shipping
plan to two years, thus making tn
government ownership scheme purely
a temporary measure. While the SEN
ate leaders were proceeding along this
line, however, President Wilson was
after the votes OF Republican Progress
sives. who demanded that the govern
ment should go into the shipping bus
mess ON a permanent basis.
II the ship purchase bill is recon-
mitted to the senate committee on
commerce it probably will be with in
structions to report it back to the SEN
ate within two days.

In making his opening announcement
DIR. Cherry's theme is "A Greater Ken
lucky" and some of the things for when
he declares are as follows
THE need of making few vital laws
ana the strict enforcement of laws al
randy made is greater than the need for
TIE making of many new laws"
He is opposed to any increase in The
tax rate. but favors a revision of our
tax laws-and a reorganization of our
financial system, so that waste and ex-
travagance will be eliminated and econ
omy substituted. to the end that the state
debt may be extinguished and the BUSH
ness of the state run within its income
He opposes any extra appropriations
until the state is able to meet her obliga-
tions promptly.
He is opposed to 1.-The secret control Of
government by machine manipulators
who pool the peoples vote and sell the
offices to the highest bidder" and also to
the control of legislation by the represen-
tatives of great corporate interests, and
would favor the enactment of a corrupt
practices act" and to the making of such
other laws as will secure fair elections
He faVors adequate regulation of rail-
roads and other public service corpora
lions to the extent that exorbitant rates
and unjust burdens may not be imposed
OF the people.
He favors an "anti-paSS" law, in COM
pliance With the demands of the consti-
tuition.
He declares that less politics and more
business is what Kentucky needs
Recognizing that universal progress
hegins and ends with the SOIL he would
strongly advocate all legislation for build
ing up our agricultural interests and for
lettering conditions in rural Kentucky
such better roads and the further de-
velOpment and improvement of our rural
schools, so that the boys and girls i'm the
country may have equal advantages
with those i'm the city.
He believes that some reorganization
of our penitentiaries and asylums is me-
cessary and that the present convict la
Dor system should he abolished.
He says the people have right to de-
mand that every dollar paid for The
maintenance of government render dol
lars worth of service and that every per-
son elected or appointed to government
position should render honest labor and
do a fun DAYS work.
he is q strong advocate of temperance
and would insist on a rigid enforcement
of all temperance laws, and If any bill
were passed to take a step backward on
this subject he would veto it. He feels
that the cause of temperance would suffer
if any effort were made to substitute, at
this time, statewide prohibition for local
option with the county as the unit.
IL you endorse this character of man
and the principles he advocates, Mr..
Cherry would appreciate your support,
ami il you feel like writing him he would
be glad to hear from you.

Paris, Feb. 3.-The official COM
muniQue states:
From the sea to the Lys the yer
man artillery made an unsuccessful at
tempt to silence ours. In the sector
Of Arras there was cannonading all
through the night of Feb. 1-2, but no
infantry attack was delivered. Near
Scissors we damaged several Of the
enemy's batteries, and at st. Paul We
repulsed an attack by small body OF
infantry"
Dispatches from Berlin quote the
Reichsan Zeiger as publishing the fol-
lowing statement from the German ad-
miralty:
England is about to ship to France
a large number of troops and great
quantity of war material. We shall
act against these transports with all
the military means at our disposal.
Peaceful shipping is urgently warned
against approaching the northwest
coasts Of France, owing to the serious
danger, as they may be confused with
ships serving warlike purposes. Ships
to North sea ports are recommended
to take the route north of Scotland"
The recent assaults of the Ger
man army are characterized IN
the Russian official statement as "fe-
rocious and distinguished by great
tenacity" on the entire Russian front
In a new drive toward Warsaw.
The fighting reached it's fiercest
along the whole line last Saturday and
Is now continuing in the same pitch.
The Russians admit that part Of the
assault on the Russian line, particu-
larly in the highly important territory
In the region of SochacZew ami Borji-
NOW, on the road to Warsaw, has been
| successful, and that the Germans
drove them back to the second line or
trenches, but the Russians deprecate
the value of any gains made by their
| enemy.
On the other hand the Russians
claim gains on the lower Vistula, and
say that they were able to repulse at
tacks of tie flercest nature at other
points.
Military readers of the communica-
ton of the war Office say that they be-
lieve that the Germans feel that they
have marked time long enough and
that if Warsaw is to be won they must
drive on with all their power, regard
less of the cost.

Washington, Feb. 3-The success
Of the immigration bill vetoed by
measure on the number of members
in attendance when the bill is called
up in the house on Thursday. A care
full canvass made by those who would
pass the bill over the presidents veto
and those who would defeat the legis-
lation, shows that the issue will be de-
cided by very narrow margin.
The house at present is made up OF
425 members. OF this number PIT are
on record in favor of the restrictive
immigration legislation proposed. One
hundred and thirty-nine members are
on record in opposition. The votes OF
nine members are in doubt, these
members having failed to answer to

marked the passage of the bill in the
house. OF the nine 1t is under stood
that five will vote in the negative.
This would give 2S2 votes in favor Of
passing the bill over the veto, just four
less than the required twothirds.
Owing to the uncertainty as to the
number of members who will be pres

unable to say what will be the out
