Republican nomination for Lieutenant
Governor to be voted for at the primary
election to BE- held on Saturday, August
9TH, 1915.
Judge Walker was born and reared
IN Garrard County, and it goes without
saying that we would all. regardless of
our politics, be pleased to see him get
the nomination. He has been a prac-
tici1g lawyer at the Lancaster bar
since ne received his license in August
1894. While reared in a democratic
family Judge Walker became a repub-
lican early IN life, and casthis first vote

Bradley for governor in 1895. and his
first vote in National race for VIM.
Mckinley for President in lS96. His
belief and conviction in the merit of
protective tariff made him republican.
He believes that the prosperity of this
country has been due largely to this
policy; and that we should have such a
tariff as represents the difference in the
cost of production in this country. and

high standard of Anne cican wages, and at
the same time create and maintain a

our products in the United States, and
our ihotto should be America for
Americans. He is also a firm believer
in the gold standard. and the highest
efficiency in our monetary policies.
Judge Walker became candidate on

tion recently held in the city of Lexing-

for a fair apportionment bill so as to |

SENATOR JAMES STAND
AGAINST PROHIBITION

1t is known that Senator Ollie M.
James has split entirely with Mr..
Bryan on two big issues.
Senator James stands sqparely with
President Woodrow Wilson, both IN
favor of local option as against pro-
hibition, ana upon the ground that the
President ard his cabinet are the ones
who have the real responsibility for
handling war matters.
All of Senator James appointees in
Kentucky are working hard for Mr..
Stanley's election, believing that MIR.
Stanley is the only candidate who agrees
with Woodrow Wilson on the Temperance
question, and who stands squarely upon
the Democratic platform.
Senator James has publicly stated his
unalterable opposition to prohibition.
On the floor of the United State
Senate. January l6, 1915, Senator
James declared his stand with President
Woodrow Wilson for local self govern
ment in each county. He had Presi-
dent Wilson's Shannon letter read to
the United States Senate from the
Clerks desk.
The people living in one part Of
Kentucky cannot force their will upon
other parts Of the State. Local self
government is given to the people Of
each county which together constitute
the State.
This is what Senator James told the
United States Senate.
This 10 whsre hs stands.

ENLARGED HOMESTEAD TALK.

Newspaper dispatches from Washing
! ton state that approximately 100000
acres OF land in Stanley and Haakon
counties within the Pierre land district
have been designated as open to entry
under the enlarged homestead law. The
land in Jackson and Lyman counties.
included In the same land district, has
not yet been designated.
At the local office, nothing at all has
been heard about the designation of the
lands in this district. approximately
200, 900 acres would be thrown open to
entry under the enlarged homestead law
in this district if all the land which
should be eligible to entry is designated.
OF this amount, about ohe-half is land
which has been entered under the old
homestead law, but which must be des-
ignated in order to allow of the add.
uonal entries made on land contiguous
to it. OF the other half probably the
larger amount has already been applied
for, and the applications are now held
awaiting the action of the General Land
Office with regard to designation. The
action taken with regard to the Pierre
district, gives rise TO the belief that it
may not be very long now until some-
thing definite is known as to what will |
be done with the land in this district.
Under the enlarged homestead law, |
land entered must be in reasonably |
body" Under recent ruling |
by the Commissioner of the General |
Land Office, it is held that this require |
ment is not complied with, where an |
entry is made in such shape that it en- |
closes an isolated tract, the ruling being |
made with reference to an application |
in this district The applicant was
forced to withdraw one forty for which |
he had applied, and make application |
for the forty which had been isolated !
by reason Of the way in which the FIRST
application had been made According |
to this, the General Land Office is deter |
mined that there shall be no applications
allowed unless the land applied for is in |
as compact a shape as possible. thus |
making it impossible for any one to Sc
cure an entry and at the same time iso-
late certain subdivisions with view to
the same at public sale after
wards.-Rapid City Guide.

mand from packers sold at not far
from steady figures, but the bulk of
the rangers were neither good beef
or good feeders and were slow sale
OF unevenly lower prices. Cows and
heifers were in very fair request and

LAW HELD REPEALED
Supreme Court Upholds Right Legislature
TO Repeal Initiated Law Richards
Primary Law Knocked Out

Pierre, Nov. 4.-That the legislature
has the power to set aside the law initi-
ated by the people, is the holding of the
supreme court in an opinion written by
presiding Justice Mccoy in which the
lower court of Beadle county is sustain
ed IN the case of the State ex rel Rich
ards ct. al. VS.. Whisman et al This is
the noted Richards primary case" in
which the legislature by direct Iegisla-
ton enacted new primary law and re-
pealed the initiated law which has been
in effect for the past four years. The
court holds in brief that the initiative
amendment to the constitution does not
limit the powers Of the legislature TO en-
act laws, but only gives to the people the
power to command the legislature to act
on any measure which may desire to
have enacted, and when so enacted the
legislation is subject to the same action
as any other law. On the contention
that the legislature had no right to add
the emergency" provision to the prim-
airy law they enacted, it is held that so
long as no attempt was made to apply
the referendum to the primary act, that
issue is not before the court.
