The Elizabethtown News is equally
as positive that no democrat who
stands for statewide prohibition can
be elected governor as we are that no
democrat who makes a fiat-footed re-
fusal to give the people a right to
vote on this big question can win.
The liqusr organs have repeatedly re-
ferres to Tennessee as an example of
how the prohibition question has split
the democratic party wide open, and
have Therefore argued that for the
same reason IL should not be made an
issue in Kentucky. Taking their own
example: the history of the past few
years in Tennessee demonstrates con-
clusively to our mind that we are
right in our contsstion stated above.
After prohibition became the issue in
Tennessee-as il is new in Kentucky
the democrats were defeated and a
republican governor was elected ev-
cry time the democrats nominated a
Wet candidate for rsat office. Last
year the Tennessee democrats profit
ed by their experience, and nominated
a Dry candidate and won the govern
orship. The way it looks to us, exact
| ly the same situation will develop in
Kentucky, and Kentucky democrats
should profit by the experience of
their brothers to the south of us.
About $4,000 democrats all over
Kentucky refused to 90 to the polls
and vote for S. W. Hager for gov
ernor of Kentucky in 1907 because
| they believed the report which was
assidsously spread that he was not
sound on the temperance question.
Now Hager, and the man who was
his campaign manager in that losing
race-Hon. Henry B. Hines are di
recting the fight for the candidate
who is favored by the liquor interests
for governor in the coming democrat
ic primary, A. o. Stanley. How many
of those $4,000 democrats who
wouldn't vote for Hager, because
they thought he was favored by the
liquor interests, will be willing to
vote for Stanley, who, they know, is
the choice of this element?

The First BAPTIST church of b,

The First Baptist church of Boston,
one of the oldest organizations of the
Baptist denomination in America has
begun weeks celebration in honor
of its 250th anniversary. At the time
the church was organized, in 1865,
the Puritan founders of Boston were
bitterly opposed to any latitude in re-
ligious belief and the Baptists were
denounced as heretie- and disturbers
of the peace. A law had been passed
forbidding any persons to meet for
worship without the consent of the
magistrate, and members of the new
church were for years prosecuted,
fined or imprisoned.
