A BEAUTIFUL THOUGHT.

The keynote of the ideals of Govern
ment that have moved A. o. Stanley
during his public career were voiced in
a few words by Stanley himself in an
extemporaneous speech he delivered at
the State Fair in Louisville on Septem-
. Der 10Th. The gubernational candidate
was speaking of good roads and during
the course of his speech said:
What has preserved this govern
ment for $50 years or more? 1 will
tell you: The plain citizen seated in a
cane bottom chair on rag carpet, be-
fore an open fire place, with Bible on
his knees and his family grouped about
him, his head bowed, simply and rever-
emily asking God to>guide him through
the night, and arising in the fear of
that same God at dawn, to take up the
simple tasks of the day. He votes with
nc thought of profit to himself, but for
the good of his family and the honor of
his country and the glory of his God.
This is the power upon which this re-
public rests, and must forever rest"

A GOOD CITIZEN.

How is this for a definition of what
constitutes a good citizen, asks the
Todd County Times: A man who wants
to see the very best roads leading from
the very best homes to the very best
schools, churches and lodges, and who
is willing to do his very level best to
secure all OF them for all the people;
who wants to see the very best educa-
tional advantages given free TO the
poorest child, and doesn't kick at pay
ing his just part of the taxation neces-
sary to obtain them; man who is
grateful for what the com immunity has in
years gone by done for him, or may
haps is doing now, and is willing 10
demonstrate that gratitude by doing all
he can for the community in question -

Owing to the prevalence OF diphthe-

DO YOUR DUTY.

Is Kentucky Democratic State, or
adoubtful State? Is it one of those
States which can be always relied upon
to cast its vote for democratic principles
of independence and for the interests
of the people or is it, as some OF the
National Republican leaders like to
claim. one of those doubtful States,
which NAV now and then be garnered
bv the agents of the big interests and
swung by them into the money column?
Now is the time for all Kentucky
Democrats to settle that question in a
manner that will leave no room for
doubt. On November 2nd, the voters
of kentucky will choose a Governor
and a complete set of State officers to
guide the destinies of the State for the
ensuing four years. Let there he no
hair-line decision at the polls. The
vote in the Democratic primary showed
how many Democrats there are in Ken
lucky. 1t showed conclusively that
Kentucky is a Democratic State, that
it is, in fact overwhelmingly Demo-
cratic.
1t is now the duty of every Demo-
crat in the State to cast his vote for the
entire State ticket on November End.
Let us take nothing for granted. The
eyes of the whole nation are on Ken
lucky. Three years ago the nation,
disguised at Republican misrule, arose
and turned over the stewardship to the
Democratic party Today the Repub-
Iicans are hoping against hope for a
raw of light They want to shove the
thin edge of the wedge in somewhere
Let the Democrats of this State pre-
vent its being slipped between their
own ribs.
If there is a small majority for Stan
lev and the rest of the Democratic
ticket in this election, the Republican
leaders will claim that the country is
returning to the Republican fold. They
will be buoyed up to redouble their
efforts to regain control of the nation
in 1916.
But, a good, old-fashioned, smashing
Democratic majority in this years
State election will break their hearts.
1t will have u powerful moral effect on
politics from the Great Lakes to the
Gulf of Mexico, from the Atlantic to
the Pacific.
The Democrats of Kentucky must
stand shoulder against the common
enemy. They should forget the disa-
appointments that came to some of
them in in the primary. Last year,
after Beckham beat him in the primary
for the nomination for the United
States Senate, Stanley got behind
Beckham and stumped the State from
one end to the other in Beckham's be-
half. The men who supported Nc
Chesney and McDermott in the pri-
mary should fellow the example set by
Stanley and show that, in spite of
differences within the party, all Ken
lucky Democrats stand together when
fighting Republicans

Tip For Society Editors

Society editors may find inspiration in
the following from the Rushville News:
The bride and groom presented a regal
spectacle, never equaled since the proud
Cleopatra sailed down the perfumed,
lotus-bearing Nile in her gilded pagean,
to meet Marc Anthony, while all the
world stood aghast at the unheard Of
triumph. To describe the brides cos
tune beggars the English language; and
the imagination falls faint and feeble be-
fore the Herculean task. She was gor-
geously arrayed in a calico house dress
and pair of lace curtains floated like a
dream about her figure.
