FAVORS Miners
Like His Uucle W.O.Bradley
He Is For LabOrers.
Has Been the Wage Earner's
Friend Since He Was
a Boy.

CdHuludIS lot governor, was born
and raised among the miners OF
Eastern Kentucky. His father, the
Hon. Il. 7. Morrow, was an eloquent
speaker and was always a friend OF
the mining and laboring people of
the community in which he lived: was
alWhyE i'm sympathy with their cause
and always defended their interest
TT" knew the mining and laboring
people as only man can know them
VINO is enc Of them and lives among
them. Mr.. Morow's uncle Hon. VIM.
.. Bradley, was one Of the strongest
champions that the laborer of Ken
lucky ever had. He made the la
bOrers cause his cause. From the
time Of his earliest manhood when
he first became able to take part in
public discussions until the date OF
his death, he ,championed the cause
Of the men who toll He fought
their fight. In the Kentucky Legis-
lature; before various labor conven-
lions; in the chair OF Governor, and
in the Senate of the United States,
his voice was always eloquent in
favor of the great laboring class of
people who constitute the bulk OF
our population. The present can
didate for Governor, Hon. Edwin p.
Morrow. is the living embodiment of
the strength and vigor and energy
and integrity of his illusrtious father
and distinguished uncle. Like them
he has always stood on the side of
the laboring people. Wherever the
interest of miners and other wage
earners were at stake the voice of
Edwin p. Morrow has always been
raised in their behalf. He is a law
yer by profession and as such has
been continuously retained as the
attorney for the United Mine Work
ers of America in the community in
which he lived. He has stood by the
miners in their efforts to obtain a
just and equitable compensation for
the injuries they have received while
at work in the mines, and has stood
by the widows and orphans of the
miners where the miners lost their
lives while at work in the mines. He
has defended them in many instances
without pay whenever they have
needed a champion and were unable
to pay.
A few years ago there was a SER
ious car shortage, 1t was Edwin p
Morrow in Eastern Kentucky who
took up the question of getting the
railroads to supply the cars needed
in order that the mines might run
and that the miners might have EN-
ployment. Living as he does in
miners and having been trained all
his life by an illustrious father and a
distinguished uncle, Edwin u. Morrow
is perhaps the most thoroughly edu-
Gated man in Kentucky in matters
pertaining to the interest of labor
and wage earners.
He is now candidate for Governor
and he is making manly fight, Wig
orous, aggressive fight for a fair sys-
TEN of taxation, for the enactment
of laws favorable to the laboring
people. for the repeal OF such laws
as are against the interest of the
laborers and for a greater and better
Kentucky. The laboring class Of peo-
pie are locking 10 his support by
The thousands. They know that he
is an earnest, highly qualified, red
blooded champion OF their cause. and
that man with his ability and has
earDestness of purpose and his in
teerity OF character, and his eXper-
fence jan the cause of labor can bo
Of great benefit TO the laboring peo-
pie of Kentucky as their Governor

South. TIE is man OF absolutely
