President Wilson as q Candidate

In his Jefferson day speech Mr.. Wilson for

ton, and with such adroitness as to suggest
careful preparation for the role His studlous
avoidance OF real issues, and his deliberate emf
phasis OF Inconsequentials mark him as the ex-
perienced politician, pretending frankness and
practicing duplicity. Grave questions Of inter
national relations were touched upon gingerly,
while the president modesty claimed to have
solved the economic and social problems OF the
country through legislation enacted since he
came into office. This challenge to criticism
will be met In detail. as time goes on, but 1t
Will be difficult choice to select one point in
his armor and say II is the most vulnerable, so
full OF holes is his covering.
The one-term plank OF the Baltimore plat
fern will be an awkward thing; no matter why
that plank was adopted. the president stood
pledged to ii until nearly two years after his
election. The banking law OF which he boasts
as the foundation for the present day prosperity

yet is open to all the criticism so vehemently
urged against II by the democratic, with the
addition OF the sectional fayoritlsm shown by
the administration in locating the reserve
banks The free trade policy Of the party, ira
ditional from the time OF Jefferson, who was
committed TO an agricultural and not a manu-
facing nation, has been abandoned by the presI-
dent since the passage of the Underwood bill
with disastrous results, aud the republican doc

CANDIDATES ron
CONGRESS ACTIVE

The race for the Democratic
nomination for Congress in qfhe
Ninth Kentucky District is becom-
ing very interesting. During the
past week two of the five candi-
dates seeking the nomination have
announced that they would speak
in Carlisle on Monday, June 18th,
which will be regular county court
day. Judge Riley, Of Rowan, and
Senator Hiles, of Bracken, are the
candidates who will ! address the
voters, and it is believed that Rep
resentative Duffy, OF Harrison, will
also appear and speak in his be-
half on that day. A large crowd is
expected to attend the meetings,
which have been well advertised.
There are five candidates seeking
theN Democratic nomination. The
best posted politicians of the dis
trict are inclined to the opinion
that Fields will win m walk, with
the situation as it now stands, and
it is hard to- find in the candidates
opposing him one formidable
