Local Men Touched"
Pickpockets Rob Judge Bailey And
Geo. c. Givens at State Fair

Several Stanford visitors to the
big State Fair at Louisville received
a trifle more than cordial well
come" to the city. They were COM
pletely "taken in" Mr.. George C.
Owens, on the Hubble pike, was
touched" for his pocketbook con-
tanning $12 while County Judge Jas.
P. Bailey, was "jostled" and his
pocketbook containing about $40 in
cash and several hundred dollars in
warrants, was removed from his
pocket. These warrants will be of
little value to the thief, however, as
Lincoln county at present has no
money with which to pay them and
should an effort be made to cash
them, a clew might be furnished to
the pickpocket. Judge Bailey re-
ported his loss to the Louisville po-
lice and the Post had the following
item about the theft: 81. P. Bailey,
of Stanford was the victim of a pick
pocket at the State fair grounds on
Thursday night. Money and papers
amounting to $885.50 was taken
from him. AS he was passing out of
the door of the pavilion where the
horse show was in progress, he was
jostled about and a moment later dis
covered the loss of his wallet. The
articles taken from him are a wallet
containing $40 in cash, three certif-
icates for $3.50 each on the treasury
of Lincoln county, one certificate on
the state of Kentucky for S57, a
note for $20.15 and other valuable
personal papers. The loss was re-
ported in person to the police de-
partment by Mr.. Bailey"

Beckham Sees Victory
In Demand for Speeches All Over
State-Wanted in West End

United States Senator ]. c. W.
Beckham returned to Kentucky from
Washington last week, and will take
an active part in the campaign to
carry Kentucky by a big majority
for Wilson and Marshall There is a
great demand for him from all over
the state. A number of the demo-
Gratis of the West End of this cour-
ty said this week that he would be
the most effective speaker who could
be sent to speak there and they will
make an effort to have the campaign
committee send him to Hustonville.
Senator Beckham is confident that
President Wilson will be reelected
if every democrat does his duty.
Speaking of the prospects he said:
81 believe the president will be re-
elected by a very large majority.
The success of his administration
has been remarkable and unprece-
dented, both in our foreign relations
during the European war and the
troubles in Mexico, and also as to
our internal affairs. The president
has at all times shown wisdom, pa
thence and patriotism. He has not
allowed himself to become panic
stricken by sentiment, or by the
many provocations of the most irri-
tating character, and he has won the
deep gratitude of the American peO-
pie in keeping this country at peace
while the rest of the world was
aflame with war. And, in addition
to that, his administration, with the
cooperation of the Sixty-third and
Sixty-fourth congresses, has given to
our people the most useful, far
reaching and constructive legislative
reforms of any administration in
half a century"

Looks Good In Pulaski
Chairman Joe H. Gibson In Stanford
En- Route from State Fair.

Col. Joe H. Gibson, of Somerset,
passed through Stanford in his auto
Saturday afternoon, returning from
the State Fair at Louisville. He
was accompanied by his friend,
John w. Whinnery, of East Orange,
N. J. Col. Gibson has just been APP
pointed Campaign Chairman for the
Democratic fight this fall in Pulaski
county, though for some reason or
other, the Somerset Journal per
sists in insisting that one Joseph
Rowe, former policeman at Burnside
is the chairman. No finer selection
for the place could have been made
than that of Col. Gibson, who has
led winning fights before, and is
backed by the active, working demo-
Gratis of Pulaski county almost to a
man. He has a wide reputation over
the county, knows how to organize
and will come nearere than any 9TH
er man to breaking in the rock-rib-
bed republican majority down there.
The best thing the Journal can do
! is to come out and support Chair
man Gibson like a man. The politi-
cal column of the Cincinnati Enquir-
Ell Sunday told the following about
the craftsmanship tangle in Pulaski:
Joseph A. Gibson, of Somerset,
banker, has upon application of a
host of Democrats in his home town
, and county been appointed by
Chairman Cantrill Campaign Chair
man for Pulaski county, and it is
said that the democrats under his
leadership are building strong or
ganization for the fight in the home
of Edwin P Morrow. 1t was an
.nounced that Joseph Rowe, of Burn
side, had been selected by the Pu-
laski County Committee for Cam
paign Chairman, but this developed
to have been incorrect, since there
was no certifcation to the state
headquarters that there had ever
been quorum present upon call for
meeting of the committee. Chair
man Cantrill sent representative
to Somerset to ascertain the facts
and following his report upon the
situation he asked the Democrats of
the county to say whom they desired
for Chairman. Gibson was named.

kind husband and father, and a
peaceable neighbor. Funeral SER

mains were laid peacefully to rest

Hubble Mare Too Game
To Win in Big Roadster Ring-Billy
Burton in the Money.

Bob Moreland, formerly of STAN
ford won the roadster championship
at the state fair early last week with
his great road horse Peter Valpa.
The mare which Senator r. L. Hub
BILE, of this city sold to McCray
Brothers, of North Middletown, was
an entrant, but so game that she
would not stand when lined up by
the judges and so failed to get a
part of the money, though none of
the entries had anything on her in
the way of speed. The finish in the
big stake which had $500 added and
was for roadsters, stallion, mare or
gelding, three-year-old or over, was
as follows: Peter Valpa, R. E.
Moreland, first; Miss Actwell, T. H.
Ezell, second; Black Matt, R. w.
Smart, third; Rosa D., w. G. Shrop-
shire, fourth; Bleucher, Powhattan
Stock Farm, fifth. Bleucher, which
got fifth money, is the very hand
some black stallion which w. B.
Burton, of Lancaster has been stand
ing each season and which is so pop
ular in this section. Bleucher also
took the blue for the best stallion,
standard bred, and made a great
show every time he was brought in
to the ring.

give very interesting and pleasant
entertainment at the school on Fri
day evening, September 22nd, be-
ginning at 7:30 o'clock. The pro-
gram has been very thoughtfully ar
ranged and promises to entertain in
the most pleasing manner. The
"Hoosier School," represents one so
years ago and is full of pranks and
fun. A small admission of 10c and
15c will be charged and a large
crowd is expected. The program
will be as follows:
Song -Kentucky Schools, Chorus.
Welcome Address-Francis Tim
berlake.
Recitation-"Little Boys Lament
Clayton Ellis:
Playlet-" The Months" ~ girls.
Recitation-"My Troubles" Mart
Owens.
Broom Drills girls.
Recitation-"Be Polite" Henry E.
Pruitt.
Dialogue "Taking Census" Jo-
sephine Myers, Wesley Gilmer.
Reading-"Talk Over Phone"
Lottie Merriman.
Play-"Hoosier School," 10 pupils.
Misses Fields and Peavy-
house.
-"My Faith Look Up
to Thee" Girls.
Our school, which is taught by
Prof Walter Moser and Miss Mary
Peavyhouse, is crowded. In Miss
Peavyhouse's room there are in some
cases three pupils occupying the
same seat. The attendance at our
school, based on the census for this
year, has broken all records. The
attendance speaks we'll for the dis
trict. Regular attendance means
much for the pupils, and the teach
ers can accomplish so much more in
so many ways.
This record attendance is not on
ly pleasing to the teachers, but the
trustees share the pleasure and are
proud of the record of the More
land school. We have been hoping
that the Lincoln County Board of
Education would be able to have
erected an additional room on our
school grounds and give relief to the
crowded conditions. Although there
are number of the older pupils
who cannot be forced by the delin-
quency law to attend school, who are
not enrolled. We urge all patrons
to allow nothing but sickness or
death to keep your children out of
school. This will cause them, the
teachers and all interested never
ending pleasure and the pupils, some
of whom do not realize the import
ance of an education, will, in after
years, shower you with blessings to
their last day.
Raymond Durham, son of Mr.. ]. J..
Durham, and one of the brightest

ADAIR LOOKS GOOD
HELM TALKS TO APPRECIATIVE
AUDIENCE MONDAY
Follows Ed Morrow at Columbia And
Shows Beyond Doubt Why Will
SON Should Be Reelected

Congressman Harvey Helm return
ed Tuesday morning from Columbia,
Adair county, where he spoke to a
large crowd Monday. 1t was court
day and voters were there from the
far ends of the county. Hon. Edwin
p. Morrow had the call on the court
house, he having been advertised to
speak there for nearly month. Mr..
Morrow spoke, after lengthy intro
duction by Judge Wallace Jones and
made what Mr.. Helm termed "a cred
liable republican speech" He was
not abusive nor did he ridicule the
opposing party, as so many of the re-
publican spellbinders do. He touch
ed on the Mexican situation, and de-
clared that President Wilson should
have declared war on Germany for
sinking the Lusitania. He was with
out doubt forgetful that Congress,
and not the president, calls the coun-
try to war, apd this being the case,
some big republican leader might
have introduced a resolution calling
for war. But this was not done, as
all know.
The republicans listened well to
Mr.. Morrow's remarks, but they were
evidently not in a humor for ap-
plauding as that demonstration was
conspicuous by its absence. Mr.
Morrow's discussion of the tariff was
what might have been expected of a
republican speaker-they all claim to
want high protective tariff.
AT the conclusion of his speech,
Mr.. Morrow left for Lebanon where
he was billed to speak that evening.
He insisted on the crowd remaining
to hear Mr.. Helm and it did so and
was well repaid for so doing.
Congressman Helm was introduced
by County Attorney Gordon Mont
gomery, a close relative of Hon. c.
F. Montgomery, of Liberty. Mr..
Montgomery led his relatives fight
in Adair in August but he is just as
warm for Mr. Helm now as he was
for Senator Montgomery then. His
speech was splendidly received and
from what can be gathered, he really
Outd;d himself. Mr.. Helm found MS
hearers most responsive and he adj
mits that he never spoke to a more
courteous audience. His references
to Mr.. Wilson were vociferously ap-
plauded, many of the republicans
joining in the cheering. Congress
man Helm declared hat the reelection
of President Wilson means continued
peace and prosperity and that now,
above all others, is the time to con-
slider the man. He told of the
achievements of the party under
democratic rule and said that four
years more Of it would put the coun-
try in such shape that the people
would want the democrats in power
for all time hence After he had
concluded his remarks, many of his
hearers gathered to shake his hand
and pledge their support to him and
the entire democratic ticket in No
vember. Quite a number of former
Progressives were among those who
extended warmest congratulations
Mr.. Helm was greatly pleased with
the days work and feels that it was
a regular field day for democracy.
He thinks that Adair county is in bet
ter shape from a democratic stand
point than it has been since it was
placed in the Eighth congressional
district, and he expects good reports
from there in November.
