ANTI-HOG CHOLERA
CLUB ORGANIZED.

One Of the most interesting as well
as the most instructive meetings ever
held in the city. was that which was
held at the Court House last Saturday
afternoon, which developed into the
organization Of the hog raisers Of the
county and to be known as the AMT
Hog Cholera Club. DR.. Himmelber-
ger Of the Lexington Experiment
Station was sent here at the solc!ta-
ton Of some of the prominent hog
raisers of the county and gave a very
instructive lecture on this particular
disease that has proven so disastrous
and fatal. besides a great loss TO the
farmers of this and other counties.
Hog cholera is the most highly infec-
tious and contagious disease known to
this breed and should be handled and
dealt with like any other contagious
disease. II is known that IL can be
carried from farm TO farm by running
water, by dogs and birds and even on
the shoes Of man. A great deal can
be done to control this disease by the
farmers of the country, by the obser-
vance Of scrupulous cleanliness ia the
care of their hogs and by the adoption
of simple sanitary measures and by
good hog-farrl management.
To encourage this. the above organi-
cation was perfected last Saturday.
with w. b. Denny. AS President and
b. +. Robinson, Secretary.
Another meeting has been arranged
for County Court day in May and on
this occasion prominent speakers will
be on hand from the Experiment Sta.
ton. Every hog raiser in the county
should join this organization at once,
as there are TO be no dues and the
pledge that you sign is a, simple one
and can be had of Mr.. F. NJ. finder of
this city.

HON. A. 0. STANLEY
GREETED BY THOUSANDS OF ADMIRERS
ON MAY FIRST AT FRANKFORT.
: Opens Campaign For Governor.

A. o. Stanley made the opening
speech of his campaign for governor
upon the platform erected on the
grounds of the old Capital in Frankfort
KY, last Saturday. The enthusiastic
crowd that greeted him was very large
and was variously estimated at from
2500 to 5000. The speaker was intro
duced by Hon. John C. Noel, prominent
banker and one of the Directors in the
Tobacco Growers Association. He pre-
sented Mr. Stanley as one of the most
constant and faithful friends the tobsc-
&C people and farmers have had in
Kentucky.
Mr.. Stanley was enthusiastically re-
ceived by the great andiance and was
often applauded during his speech.
One section of the address was a splen-
did defense of the work of the National
Administration at Washington and of
President Wilson. In another section
his opposition to the idea of the
Democrats adopting the policy of State
wide prohibition was fully discussed.
He stated his belief in the principle of
County Unit Law and pledged his best
efforts to maintain the law upon the
Statue if elected governor and to en-
force the law both in form and spirit.
He used the follhwing language on that
subject
''If | am nominated and elected Gov
ernor. as verify believe shall be, |
solemnly declare to you to-day. with
all the emphasis of which am capable,
that | will exert all the power and all
the influence vested in me as the Chief
Executive of the Commonwealth to
maintain that law in all its integrity
and all its force ana if necessary,
will oppose by the free exercise of the
veto power, any effort from any source
whatever to amend or weaken it in
any respect, and ] shall earnestly en-
deavor to secure its rigorous enforce
ment in letter and in spirit in every
county and in every city of the Com
monwealth of Kentucky"
He criticised the leaders of Anti
Saloon League, Senator Beckham and
his opponent. Hon. Harry McChesney
for taking Judge Ed. C. O'Rear, late
republican candidate for Governor into
the Democratic Gibralter district of
Kentucky for the purpose dividing and
disruptIng the democratic party.
The central record. (Lancaster, Ky.) 18??-current, 1915-05-06

All the candidates for Gubernatorial
nominations have opened their cam
paigns with a speech except one.
Friends OF, all have done their best to
see that each candidate had repre-
sentative crowd at the opening. II the
friends of A. o. Stanley succeed in
delivering the votes in the August Pri-
mary as at the opening speech there is
no doubt left as to who will receive the
nomination. As reported Stanley had
thousands at his opening where the
other candidates had hundreds.
1t is said that the drift of the Cherry
strength, since his withdrawal is to the
ex-Congressman from the second dis
trict. With the republicans united in
spite of any attempt of the Beckham-
O'Rear campaign, the democrats of
this state are not going to take the
chance of humiliating defeat in Nov
ember by adopting Statewide prohibi.
ton. There may be some division
among democrats as to who should be
nominated for governor. but it is be-
coming to appear in this locality as if
there is no controversy about the liquor
question. Garrard county democrats.
as We observe it. are against statewide
prohibition and for the county unit law.
With practically united party in this
county upon that issue, many democrats
who supported Beckhsm for the Senate
have declared for Stanley for Governor.

CLEAN UP DAY.

Inc Mayor anu tltY Oouncll nave
ordered Friday and Saturday. May 18th
and 18th as clean up days IN Lancaster.
A town or city is as dirty or as at
tractive add clearf as its people make il.
1t cannot rise above the level of its
citizens. When travelling. you realize
that dirty city is made up Of dirty
households, inefficient citizenry. If
you do not keep your city clean. you
confess to unclean individual homes.
As a n al liveth. so in his home town.
If you believe in your town and have
testified to this belief by investing in
property or business venture, increase
your property values end your income
by adding to the cleanliness ana beauty
of it.
A mayor and council, cannot keep a
town clean. Neither can you depend
upon On efficient Board of Health or
sanitary laws. Ii takes concerted ac-
tion. community pride of all classes. in
all sections Of a town, to bring about
municipal cleanliness. Where fear of
the law fails to achieve results, sin
cere desire to make the whole town
clean, will do the work.
While you are at it, just remember
I. that it isn't enough to be clean your
sells and in your own home. 1t is the
cleanliness of your neighbors that counts
in the ultimate result. The flies that
breed in your neighbol s open garbage
pail. in the dirty alley behind the
grocery, in the refuse pile of livery
stable on the other side of town. will
carry germs of disease into your i'm
maculate home. Some one else's damp
cellar or seeping cess-pool can start an
epidemic which the sanitation of your
own home cannot overcome.
First cousin TO a refuse-strewn alley
is that weed-choked lot between you
and your neighbor. Under the weeds
Turk TN cans with putrefylng foodstuffs
hugging their Tin sides and breeding
more flies and mosquitoes, dirty rags
that ought TO be burned, half rotten
fruits and vegetables. perhaps even a
dead cat or dog or rat. Did YOU ever
think what sort Of stuff this is for your
children to trudge through, when they
strike out across lots on their way to
SCHOOL, Clean it up!
CLEAN YOUR STREET. You
don't think much of a woman who
sweeps the dirt from the hving-room
into the hall. and then out on the porch
and finally upon the walk or grass. Do
you think that neatly clipped lawn
and well kept gravel walks will com
mand respect from those who pass your
home, II they see that the sweepings
from lawn and walks have been flung
out into the gutter or street? Don't
you judge a neighborhood by the con-
dition of the cutters and streets in
front of the houses? Don't YOU see
them first and the front yards and trim
porehes next?
Clean Up. Clean Up. Help make
! this a hyless town and a sanitary town.

Prof. Cherry's card, withdrawing
from the race for the Democratic
nomination for Governor is dignifed
utterance and all who are acquainted
with Prof. Cherry's work at Bowling
Green will do justice to the motives
which induced him both to enter and
finally to abandon the race.
In his card Of retirement, Prof. Cher
ny makes no suggestion as to the
future political alignment Of his sup
porters and these will undoubtedly de-
eide for themselves as TO their future
course.
A lifelong worker in the cause of
temperance, Prof. Cherry has this TO
say in regard TO the issue Of State
wide prohibition:
There are thousands and thousands
of temperance workers who believe as
! do, and who are today resisting State
wide prohibition in the interest of tenn
perance and are regretting that efforts
are being made 10 make II an issue in
this campaign. Many believe that the
effort is not at this time fundamental
and that il will divide the temperance
forces, bring on reaction and do harm
rather than good

NAL School at Bowling Green stated
that he will probably be asked to re-

sumo the presidency of that institution,
which he vacated several months ago,
upon deciding to enter the Governors
race.
The regents OF the State Normal
School meet at Bowling Green June
next. The position of president has
never been filled since Prof. Cherry's
resignation. and it is believed that he
will agree to go back if elected in June.
The withdrawal of DR.. Cherry, leaves
five gentlemen aspiring the honor.
Others may and probably will with
draw before the primary. Hundreds
of democrats over the state were
pleased with DR.. Cherry's platform.

cratic principles, well and forcibly
stated. His was a program, if carried

new FRANCHISE WANTED
LANCASTER ELECTRIC LIGHT COMPANY
Submits Proposition For Tweniy-four
Hour Service.

At the regular meeting of the city
council last Monday night, the entire
board sitting, the Lancaster Electric
Light Company made a proposal to the
council regarding the twenty-four hour
service that they wish to enstall in this
city. This company has about two
more years before its present franchise
expires and they propose to surrender
this, provided the city will order an
other twenty-year franchise sold. as
the entire expense of refitting the plant
for this service will entail an amount
of possibly $40, 900 or more. Mr.. Alex
Walker who is one of the proprietors of
this company stated to the council that
if his company succeeded in getting the
new franchise. they would put in the
meter system entirely. the company to
furnish the meters, and make rate of
ten cents kilowat, the poles are to be
moved from the square to the first al
ley and that an underground system
could be run connecting to standards
around the square. The arc lights will
be eliminated entirely and the nitro
gen" system of lighting will be used
exclusively. While every citizen of the
town would like to see a twenty-four
hour service. yet quite a number are
opposed to the city granting so long a
franchise as twenty years. Mr.. Wal
kers company proposes to put in the
direct current" system. while we find
quite a number that favor the alter
mating" system. The only objection
raised to the alternating" was the
hazard, as the wires under this system
are charged to 2, 300 volts. Under the
twenty-four hour service. Mr.. Walker
stated that the service would be much
better and would be no more expense
to the city than under the present sys-

such franchise at this time. Quite a
number of the prominent citizens of
the town oppose the granting another
franchise for any specified time and
think the city should own its own cleo
trio light plant.
/ 1t is a well known fact that Public
Utility" stock is considered the best
and the safest stock that one can buy
and money can be borrowed on such
stock. without having to sell or vote
city bonds. This plan seems practical
to great many, as it doesn't increase
the taxes in the least, the plant alone
standing for its indebtedness. We are
informed that the city of Harrodsburg
owns its plant and are furnishing lights
to its citizens for six cents kilowat,
the city of Nicholasville owns its plant
and its service costs only seven cents.
If it is practical for Lancaster to own
its own plant, would it not at least bear
investigation. We own our Water
System and the expense of running
both plants together would reduce the
coA mat srially; one engineer could do
the work of two, one collector could
collect both for water and lights. We
are for the twenty-four hour service,
and if practical, we favor the city
owning its own plant.
