True Function of Governor.
1T is known of all men that Percy
Haly proposes either to nominate him
self as governor of Kentucky or some
respectable figurehead of his own Sc
lection whom he can own and con-
troll and that men shall be ineligible
to position on the all-powerful board
of assessment and valuation, whose
names do not appear on his exclusive
roll of honor co., I shall fight with
all the energy / possess and shall ex-
ert to the utmost all the authority
vested in me to prevent the intermed-
ding by an officeholding trust or
Petty political hierarchy with these or
any other Offices in the state, and i
shall fight every concerted attempt to
dictate nominations for national, state,
district or county Offices. ~
The function of the governor and
those associated with him is to trans
act the business of the state in such
way as to rebound to its credit and
to that of his party and the security
and prosperity of the people and not
to construct an endless chain of Office
holders, from street sweeper to chief
magistrate, for the purpose of main
tanning perpetually in power a polit-
ical triumvirate and a pampered and
protected lobby. 1 shall fight the
Haly Rhea Shackelford triumvirate
now in control as bitterly as 1 shall
fight any other individual or combina-
tion which may seek to pillage our
state.

legitimate business and industry,
whether large or small, to encourage
the investment of capital in and the
development of our unrivaled and as
yet almost undeveloped resources; to
promote the construction and opera

that our people may find better and
speedier access to the market, the
mill, the school and the church. AS
means to this end, l favor the aboli-
tion of prison contract labor and the
employment of the convicts on the
roads of the state.
Il shall vigorously endeavor to pro-

In his statement Mr.. Stanley promises
that if elected he will rid the state

Mr.. Stanley's Statement.

"One of the greatest issues which
will confront the Democracy of Ken
lucky at the ensuing August primary
election will be the control of the
state board of valuation and assess
ment and the tremendous powers in
herent in it. The Democrat who is
to be elected governor must turn
face of flint toward every proposal to
use this board for putting screws to
any public service corporation which
may refuse to do it's bidding, or for
rewarding with any character of priv
ilege or exemption such corporations
as may agree to become part and par
eel of the political machine. For IN
less a governor of Kentucky can keep
clean the board of valuation and as
sessment he can not give an honest,
economical and efficient administra-
ton. He is.in' chains.

memory Of my dearly beloved

christian home in Okolona, Miss.
on Thursday evening, April 18th
1915, surrounded by his beloved
companion, son, daughters, sons

friends, at the ripe age of near
seventy-tWo years. The writer
has been personally and intimate
ly associated with him for near
twenty years, and had ample
opportunities to know and OK
serve his work Of love, daily
walk and noble christian virtues.
He was modest, reserved,
placid, and retiring in manner
and temperament. He practiced
the religion of the great apostle
James, in administering unto
the widows and orphans, and to
those in trouble and distress.
and to further know the lovely
children, reared by his worthy
companion and self, fully sub
Stimulates the fact that he was
marvelousley fitted for his great

he will hear the great mandate,
Awake thou that sleepe t.
