No Democrat should allow him
self to be gulled by the shallow
claims of the enemy. They have
no money with which to make
this campaign, but Bradley's
nephew and Hunters son both
know the gum shoe" tactics
thoroughly. That's the way
they hope to ride into Office.
Just by the surprise route.
Watch 'em. Urge your Dem
ocratic neighbor to go to the
polls and take his neighbor along
with him. Kentucky is a Dem
ocratic State by fifty thousand
and Stanley and the rest of the
ticket are entitled to the full
Democratic vote. Gum Shoe
tactics will only win when you
are off guard. Go to work right
now and find who is who in
your neighborhood. Tell your
county chairman the condition OF
things and do your part toward
voting and no complaint can be
found with you or your Democ.
racy. Let's see if we can't out
do all former elections in the
way of big majorities. Let ev.
cry man do his part in electing
Stanley and the Democratic tick
ct and just so sure it will be a
forerunner of great victory for
1916 throughout the nation.

WAR SITUATION.

With the drive at Serbia by a
heavy force of Germans and
Austrians led by Field Marshal
Won Maceensen well under way,
the Balkan situation is bringing
forth new developments almost
hourly.
Serbia has definitely broken
with Bulgaria, the Bulgarian
Minister at Nish having been
handed his passports.
A Nish dispatch late last night
stated that an aeroplane coming
from Bulgaria subjected the Ser
bian city to an aerial lombard
ment, killing five persons and
wounding two others.
The Bulgarian military author
tiles have taken over the rail-
road from the Bulgarian seaport
of Dedeaghatch on the Aegean
and Mustapha Pasha in Thrace,
forty miles of which line runs
through Turkish territory.
London hears unofficially that
the Greek Government twill pro-
claim an attitude of benevolent
neutrality, toward the Entente
Allies.
Advices from Nish through
Athens state that the Serbians
believe Greece will not abandon
Serbia, as Serbia and Greece are
equally threatened by the new
developments, in the Balkans.
Bulgaria's intention to enter
the war on the side of the Cen
trail Powers is proclaimed, Ber-
lin dispatches state, in a mani
festo to the Bulgarian nation.
The manifesto states that it
would be suicide for Bulgaria

The Republican spellbinders
have much to say about the ex-
travagance of the present admis-
istratiOn, but when the figures
are shown the Bradley and the
Wilson administrations, in the
way of expenditures, lead the
Democrats. General Garrett
made a speech in Shelbyville last
week, and took occasion to de-
fend the present administration
and he did it to the satisfaction
of his hearers. The Republicans
are large on making misstate-
ments. What Barksdale Ham
lett did for them in Western
Kentucky, last week, was a
plenty.

If the Democrats will only
come to the polls on November
End and vote for Stanley and the
entire Democratic. There is no
earthly reason why the entire
ticket should not win by an i'm
mense majority. We ali know
now that both the Senate and
House are absolutely safely DEM
ocratic. Then what is the use
of electing Morrow Governor?
He would only be a figurehead.
His vetoes would amount to moth
ing for they could be passed over
his head at any time. With
Stanley as Governor, the Dem
ocratic party will be in position
to do some valuable Democratic
legislation. The State would
then receive adequate compensa-
ton from its law makers. If
Morrow should be elected, all the
people could hope for would be
time and money thrown to the
winds. Our Republican friends
who have the good of the old
Commonwealth at heart and es-
pecially the independent voters
can readily see the uselessness
in voting for: Morrow. Vote for
Stanley and the entire Democrat
ic ticket and thereby render your
State valuable service.

Mr.. R. B. Trigg, Democratic
candidate for the State Senate,
and Mr.. Ray Montgomery, Dem
ocratic candidate for the Legis-

and will do everything in their
power to get the vote out. 1t is
generally conceded that Mr..
Trigg will be successful at the
polls, but there should be no let
up upon the part of his friends.
While the Legislative district is
Republican, Mr.. Montgomery's
friends claim that he can be
elected, as encouraging reports
IN his race comes from Cumber-
land county. Mr.. Montgomery's
supporters confidently believe
that he will carry Adair county
by a good majority, and it is not
impossible for him to win in
Cumberland. Every Democrat
should be at work

The most encouraging news

The most encouraging news
comes from State Democratic
headquarters. From reports sent
in from all Congressional dis
tricts. it is believed that Mr..
Stanley and the entire ticket will
be elected by forty thousand. In
voting the Democratic ticket you
vote to endorse Woodrow Wilson,

not to align herself with Ger
many and her allies. II
According to the quoted text
of the manifesto, parts of serbia
have been promised to Bulgaria
by the Teutonic Powers, whose
victory is declared to be assured.
In that victory, it is affirmed,
the desire for the union of all
Bulgarian people will be realized.
The Venizelos party in Greece
will not oppose the new Govern
ment, Paris hears from Athens,
as overthrow of the Cabinet
would mean dissolution of the
Greek chamber, which it is con-
sidered, would be hazardous at
the critical time.
An Athens dispatch states
that prominent Greeks consider
that King Constantine has gained
prestige by his recent course,
which former Premier Venizelos
has suffered a corresponding
loss. General sentiment in Ath-
ems, the dispatch declares, SEEM
ingly is that the Kings policy
has saved Greece from a war III
to which M. Venizelos would
have led it.
Again there is little but artil-
lery action reported from the
front in France. Much of this
was of a violent character.
There has been much trench
fighting, however, near Tahure,
which the French recently took
from the Germans.
Paris reports a heavy bonn
bardment by the Germans of
French positions on the Cham
payne front. Two of the places
mentioned as in the fighting
zone-St. Hilaire and St. Souple
are on the strategic railroad at
which the French have been
driving.
Berlin announces progress in
the great drive at Serbia, de-
claring that the movement of
the Teutontic forces across the
Danube, Save and Drina rivers
is proceeding favorably.
