back. The appointed time came
around and the woman did not
show up. Those who had assist
ed in the work became suspicious
and the book company was writ
ten to asking about its agent.
The reply stated that it did not
know Mrs. Wheeler. An inves-
tigation revealed the fact that
she had visited several Of the
adjoining counties and had done
the same thing.
The United States officers were
appealed to and they took the
matter up and located the wo-
man, and the citizens of Adair,
Metcalfe, Monroe and Barren
were this week notified to appear
in the Federal court at Bowling
Green to testify against her.

was a body blow to the liquor
forces and their candidates.
They would have suppressed it.
as they have done the Texas
letter. if they had dared to do so;
but the fact that Mr.. Haldemsn
had written the President leaked
out, and they were forced to
pu blish the correspondence.
They attempted to weaken the
force of the blow by running
misleading headlines over the
article; but the reading public
has long been wise to this
scheme. and it did not work.
In this predicament the liquor
interests had to make a new
move. The next step was to
find some one willing to misquote
the President. This was not a
difficult task, and in a few days
there appeared in the Courier
Journal an extract from a speech
made in Eastern Kentucky by a
liquor candidate for Governor,
in which he was quoted as say
ing referring to the Presidents
letter to Mr.. haldeman): For
that reason he 1.-THE President)
has again re-ssserted his earnest
hope thrt the Democrats Of
Kentucky will not allow them
selves to be divided into hostile
camps over the liquor question.
1t will be seen that the liquor
candidate deliberately misquoted
the President. There was not
a word in the letter to Mr..
Haldeman about Kentucky, or
the Democratic party. or the
present statewide movement in
Kentucky. That the public may
read the letter in connection with
this liquor candidates version Of
it, ! quote it in full:
