Mr.. Paul Strother, local agent FOL
the Ford automobile last week plac-
ed an order for seventy-fve ma
chimes to be delivered to him within
the nexe twelve months.
This, we believe, is the largest
single order ever placed for auto
mobiles from city this size in the
State. The machines win be ship
ped to him in lots of six and twelve
and after the opening of the large
Ford assembly plant at Louisville
within the next sixty days, it is not
thought that there viii be any
trouble about delivery.
Mr.. Strother has been unable tc
supply the demand for this popular
car this summer. He will receive
twelve cars this month. He is a
wide-awake hustler and the Ford
agency is in the hands Of man who
will do everything he can for the
concern he represents.

TO ED MORROW

Latt F. Mclaughlin, who was de-
feated for the Republican nomina-
ton for Governor, has written a
pheasant little note" to E. p Nor
row, the successful aspirant of the
party.
Mr.. Mclaughlin calls his note a
'1etter Of coincidence" and can ex-
preston of his heartfelt sympathy"
As the Republican nominee for Gov
ernor, he tells Mr.. Morrow he viii
have to spend some Of his time and
means on a doomed campaign" as
he has "no more chance to win than
snowbird has to live in hades." He
adds:
'You committed suicide at Lex
iagsoR and the victory for our party
was there assassinated. The trap
closed on us on August Z and the
deadfall will get us on November 2
unless your soul awakens from self
ishness and you have the magnan-
unity to withdraw before the certi-
ficate of nomination is handed to
you."-Frankfort State Journal.

AT LOUISVILLE
Falls City Selected BY Democratic
Committee at Meeting Held

That there viii be absolutely nc

and there is said to be every proba-
bility that no suggestion of State

In any event, it is certain that the
platform viii pledge the party to
maintain the county unit law.
There was considerable discussion
among the Democratic arrivals Sat-
urday in regard to the so-called
Texas plan. After a recent hard
party fight in that State the Texas
Democrats adopted a resolution al
their State convention that the laws
on the statute books relating to the
liquor question were satisfactory
for the time, and the party nominee
for Governor pledged himself to We
to any bill Of any kind relating to
the liquor question. This resulted,
so the advocates of the plan say, in
taking the liquor question entirely
out of State affairs. The victorious
Democratic faction in Kentucky
state that this is exactly what they
want to do. They aver that they
viii preserve the county unit Lii,
and as they believe existing laws
are satisfactory many Of them fay-
or declaration pledging the party
to leave untouched the present
liquor laws in Kentucky.
