THE WINCHESTER OPENING.

A representative of this paper attend
ed the mass meeting at Winchester
Monday to take steps to make the Dem
ocratic State Gambaign opening there
early in September an occasion never to
be forgotten in the history of toe Ken
lucky. 1t was most enthusiastic gath
ering of Democrats which filed the spa.
cious circuit court room to the doors,
many having to stand, after the extra
supply of chairs had been taken.
County Chairman John NJ. Stevenson
explained the object of the meeting and
called to the chair Hon. j. Z. Garner,
who had previously been selected gen.
eral manager and chairman of the com
mittee of arrangements, who made an
inspiring and eloquent recital of Clark
county's former efforts and promised
to more than eclipse them in the com
ing event. Senator Abram Renick. Hon.
/. G.. Stuart and other leading citizens
made short addresses pledging their
hearty support while many farmers said
put me down for fat bullock" "a
pair of fat lambs. several sheep"
and other things galore. Committees
for every necessary purpose were
appointed and the concensus of opinion
was that the $4,000 necessary for the big
barbecue would be more than subscribed
and those who know the Democracy and
the ambition of the people of Win
chester and Clark county feel sure that
no one will be appealed to in vain. Ev-
erybody, Republicans and what-nots
will vie in the effort to put the best
foot foremost and prove the wisdom Of

Cantrill in accepting the invitation to
have the opening of the state campaign
there. Winchester is an ideal point for
the gathering of large crowd. The

people to come from all parts of the
state and especially from the eastern
section which has peen somewhat neg

trine. The mountain people will be
there from as far back as the salt
works on bitter creek and Democracy
will have free course and be glorified.
The opening will lkely occur on the 9th
Of September, the day after the ded-
ication at Hodgenville and 1t is expected
that President Wilson, who is to be prin-
cipal speaker there, will be induced to
stop over on his return to Washington
and address the assemblage.
An invitation is extended to the
voters all over the state to attend, as
sured of warm welcome and an in
tellectual and physical treat, as the
most distinguished speakers will be on
hand and burgoo and other good things
will be as free as the pure air of the
section. mo one shall go away

The newspaper reports were erron-

steps are not being taken in the matter
of building the dam, and We are not

That Republicans hike Republics are
ungrateful was never more fully dem
onstrated than in their shabby treat
ment of Col. John w. McCuloch, of
Owensboro, who was turned down for
an untried and comparatively unknown
man, whose party service does not
compare with his. The position of
National Committeeman is purely one
of honor with no emoluments and yet
it was taken from Col. McColloch, who
could always be depended on to raise
and contribute to campaign funds when
ever they were most needed, just be-
cause the timid heads Of the party
feared the charge that it was not hon
est in its anti-liquor declaration, If they
had distiller as one of their leaders.
Col. McCulloch deserved better at the
hands Of the party he had served so
long and so faithfully and those who
think he was slaughtered for expediency
are going to resent the treatment ac-
corded him when they mark their bal
lots in November. There are some
sores that wont heal, especially those
