Kcnton Looks Up Law.
Joe Kenton. secretary of the county
election board. stated last night that
he had been asked By several candi-
dates to order Il recount, but he found
no provision in the law for siieh. pro-
cedure.
"Thc law authorizes a recount ir
primary election, when asked for oS
candidates" said Kenton. but does
not coll for any such action in gen

cast for county candidates in the elec.
ton last Tuesday"
T. l.. Wallace, assistant county at

Kenton with reference to the law OF
the subject.

AFTER WARDS

All full we'll do | remember
Each quadrennial November
How each sep rate dying eniber
OF hope bursts into flame
As we read the proclamation
Ard the bold representation
OF some hero of high station
Who hath won prophets fame.
But when hopes are at their highest
And a victory seemeth highest
And our throats are at their dryest
Comes disconcerting flash.
Then clearly see our blunoer
All too late to get from under
Without being wrenched asunder
From hypothecated cash.
And our sadness and detection
Gets no solace from reflection
That our wives gave us direction
Not to stake our hard-earned stuff. "
But while faith is all-abdng
That we're still adept at hiding
Ugly facts prone to colliding,
Yet still, by Jnks, it's tough.
