ILLEGAL SALE OFEL|QUOR
SHOULD Be A FELONY
A Law Which Calls For Enact.
ment At Next Legislative
Session.

The tragic loss of three lives a.
Hickman as the result of the opera
ton of one blind tiger is not at all
surprising. Blood has been shed in
many other localities of Kentucky,
and a human life has been sacrific-
ed. simply because some contempti-
BILE cur set up gain of a few dol
lars for his own filthy purse as of
greater Importance and as a more
sacred right than the expressed will
of the people, crystalized into the
law of the land. Jail and fines have
no terror for the average bootlegger.
and as the Times has frequently
suggested, the evil will never be bro
ken up until the Legislature makes
the Illegal sale of liquor a felony,
punishable. even at the minimum, by
long term at hard labor in the
penitentiary. Why can't the next
General Assembly enact such law?
Todd County Times.
The News has long been contend
ing for the enactment of such
measure, and hopes that il will re-
ceive early and favorable considera-
ton from the next session of the
Legislature.
Punishment. other than capital, is
intended both TO reform the punish
ed and to deter others from a COM
mission of the same or similar Of
lenses. In other words the punish
ment must TT the crime.
A casual knowledge OF conditions
in any dry city of Kentucky re-
veals the fact that the present stat
ute against the illicit sale of liquor
falls short of doing this. The Jail
sentence and fine assessed against
bootleggers is thoroughly inadequate
to cope with the situation. especial

victions in this character of cases.

AN EARNEST APPEAL TO
OHIO COUNTY DEMOCRATS

Election day is but short time
away. In few brief hours the die
will have been cast. Kentuckians
will know whether. during the next
four years. they will be under the
management of the Democrats or
the Republicans.
The issues have all been discuss
ed. Every Kentuckian knows, or
ought to know. who the contending
candidates are and what they stand
for. The time for action is at hand.
The time for thought is past. II is
the duty of every Democrat in Ken
lucky, every man who loves free
dom and the rule of the people. not
only to go to the polls himself but
to see that his neighbor goes and
casts vote for Stanley and the rest
of the ticket.
II. Mr.. Democratic voter, there is
a man living beside you who. for one
reason of aonther. figures that his
vote will not be NEEDED. go after that
man. Make him go with you to the
polls. The Republicans are working
tooth and nail. They are spending
money like water in an effort to
keep down the Democratic majority.
A small Democratic majority will
please the Republicans almost as
much as would the election of their
ticket, for if the majority for the
Democrats is slight. the Republic
ans, though defeated. will still be
able to say that the country is turn
ing toward Republicanism and that
a Republican President will be elect
ed next year.
Should the race be close, every
Democrat in the State ought to hang
his head in shame. We have the
votes. Let's cast them. Let no
Democrat be compelled to say to
himself on the morning of Novem-
Der Sd. IL wish l had gone to the
POLLS

VITAL QUESTIONS PUT
TO KENTUCKY VOTERS
Which Should Be Answered By
Their Vote On Next
Tuesday. j.

Under Republican rule wallStreet

the Nation. The Democratic party
destroyed that control.
ARE YOU WITH WALL STREET

ton.
ARE YoU FOR THE EXPRESS
COMPANIES OR THE PARCEL
POST?
Woodrow Wilson drove from
Washington the paid lobbyists of
special privilege who fiourished I'M
der Republican rule.
ARE YOU FOR WOODROW WILL
SON OR THE LOBBYISTS
II A. o. Stanley is elected Cover
nor he will drive the lobbyist out of
business in this State. The Repub-
licsn party is the friend of the lob
byist.
ARE YOU FOR STANLEY OR
THE INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT?
The Republican party levied taxes
on the necessities OF the poor The
Democratic party levied tax upon
the incomes of the rich.
ARE YOU FOR A TAX ON THE
NECESSITIES OF LIFE OR FOR A
TAX ON WEALTH?
Woodrow Wilson has preserved
peace in this country without the
sacrifice of honor or the lives of our
splendid young men.
Are you not patriotic enough to
rejoice that Woodrow Wilson is
President?
A VOTE FOR STANLEY is A
VOTE TO SUSTAIN THE POLICIES
OF WOODROW WILSON.

Last week We had the pleasure Of
visit to the homes Of some Of our
friends out in Union neighborhood.
The beautiful country homes along
the way with the green fields OF
wheat constituted the most beauti-
full scenery that our eyes had beheld
Of late. The farms looked to be
one-third in wheat and the cereal
was never known to be further ad-
vanced in growth this early in the
season. The farmers in this vicinity
have a fine crop OF corn which they
will soon begin to gather. In fact.
| never saw a section in a more
prosperous condition than Union
neighborhood at present. The great
est handicap TO that neighborhood is
the hill known as Hates hill. on the
Dixie highway. two miles from town.
There is ledge of rock near the top
that is hard to pull up with loaded
wagon. Much money has been spent
on that hill but to no purpose. If
the County Court would appropriate
$3.50 and send an engineer out there
with what help the farmers of the
vicinity will give. that hill could be
graded down and made road that
would never burden travel in that
section any more.

The Bio Question.

The big question in Kentucky to-
day Is whether the people want to
stand squarely behind Woodrow
Wilson and the great things he has
done for the country in the past few
months. We believe that the peo-
pie are so strongly with Wilson that
they will give him an enthusiastic
vote OF confidence and encourage
ment in November by electing the
Democratic ticket by the largest me-
jority in recent wears. A vote
against the Democratic ticket Is
vote against Woodrow Wilson. --
