deliver to the American people.

Praise without reservation or qualification is due to Mr..
Hughes for his clear, sound, and admirable words upon Ameri-
canism and preparedness. Il stand for an Americanism that
knows no Interior purpose" he says, for a patriotism that is
single and complete. Whether native or naturalized, of what
ever race or creed, we have but one country, and we do not
for an instant tolerate any division or allegiance" There is
no ambiguity about that declaration, no room is left for doubt.
Mr.. Hughes has done his part to take the hyphen out of Ameri-
can politics. The Democrats cannot do less, they will make over
lures for the support of voters with a divided allegiance only at
their peril. Fortunately Mr.. Wilson has spoken with no less
directness and sterner emphasis in taking the same position.
Mr.. Hughes declares his belief in preparedness entirely ade-
ouate for our defense with respect to numbers and equipment
in both army and navy" and that is Mr.. Wilson's position. For
the advocates of national defenseessness upon the one hand,
and for those who are in sympathy with the purposes Of Ger
man militarism upon the other, there will be no place in this
campaign unless they put forward a candidate of their own.
Mr.. Hughes will not be elected. His defeat is to be desired,
among many other reasons, for this good and sufficient reason
that the invasion of the Supreme Courts Chamber by needy
politicians in search of a leader, now for the first time IN Amerl-
can history successfully accomplished, may be rebuked and made
a precedent too dangerous for following. The ermine that we
have been taught to believe should touch nothing less spotless
than itself must not be donned for a few seasons wear to be
stripped off by a reckless party convention forcing it's wearer
into the dust and turmoil of the political arena. The Republic
cans have assailed the purity of that great bench. They have
mt the Justices who sit there under the almost irresistible
temptation to turn their minds aside from the questions that
alone concern them, to let their thoughts wander to fields of
contention where they should have no part. 1t is disturbing and
q menace to that judicial calm and impartiaity which should
prevail in that chamber and to which by the acceptance Of APP
pointment Justices of the Supreme Court should devote their
minds and their Hves.-New York Times.

large numbers and those groups
of voters who are dissatisfied
with President Wilson'S foreign
policy and the attitude of his
party on the tariff question.
This means in our judgment the
election Of the Republican ticket.
In the event Col. Roosevelt had
been nominated by the Republi-
can Convention, he and his
friends wanted Fairbanks as his
running mate. Roosevelt and
Fairbanks are, strong friends.
The delegates were almost unani-
nous for Fairbanks for Vice.
President. He received nearly
all the votes on the first ballot,
and on motion his nomination
was made unanimous. He will
be Il tower of strength to the
ticket.
The Progressives nominated an
eX-Democrat of New Orleans for
Nice-President, of course if he
runs he cannot get any votes to
amount to anything. Col. Roose-
welt will not accept the nominal
ton. He and the leaders will be
behind Hughes.
Hughes represents many of
the Progressive ideals. Most of
the Bosses" preferred some
other man. The people called
for Hughes. This is the first
time since Washington that the
office has sought the man. The
people will have their way. Let
every man who desires a change
in administration take courage
for we will surely win in No
vcmber.
Respectfully,

ballots and on the third all Is
Kentucky delegates voted for
Hughes.
Col. Roosevelt in my opinion
will not accept the Progressive
nomination. In fact it is the inn
preston here that he will be one
of Hughes strongest and best
fighters in the campaign. The
Progressive delegates here in
large numbers are coming out
strong for Hughes. Col. Roose-
welt and other leaders OF the
Progressive party deserve a
great deal of credit for bmying
their own personal wishes and
coming out for Hughes and to
service of the country. ! think
there is no doubt but what the
party will be united in this fight.
Hughes is one of the ablest
and cleanest men in public life.
He is regarded by those who
know him as one Of the very
ablest campaigners in the coun-
try. We may look for the most
vigorous and brilliant campaign
that has ever been waged in this
country. Hughes will not only
unite under the Republican ban
ner both wings of the party but
will attract to.him the Indepen-

Sampson in Lead.

A careful survey of the twenty
seven counties of the Seventh
Appellate District Of Kentucky
discloses that the majority of the
Republicans are favorably in
clined toward the candidacy of
Judge Sampson, and that he will
receive an overwhelming MAORI
ty at the polls on August 9Th.
Conservative men from different
parts of the district have spent
sometime in an earnest effort to
find out the exact facts, and have
submitted these facts to the edi-
tor of the Advocate for the bene-
fit of the public. There is not a
county in the district in which
Judge Sampson will not get
fair vote. While in the counties
eff the Cumberland River, he will
receive an unusually large vote;
and, especially is this true in the
Big Counties of Knox and Whit
ley. In Bell, Harlan, Laurel,
and Clay he viii roll =. large
majorities. There are some
other counties in the district in
which he will receive majorities,
but they will be smaller than
those in these Cumberland Valley
Counties. q All taken together,
conservative men acquainted
with politics are of one opinion,
and that is, Judge Sampson will
receive the nomination at the
hands of his party for Judge of
the Court of Appeals on the 9Th
Of August, next.

The Convention.
Chicago, ILL.,, June IL, 10

Editor Mountain Advocate:
Idesire to take this opportunity
to express my sincere thanks to
the Republicans of the district
for the honor conferred upon
H., in making me a delegate to
the Republican National Conven-
ton. The convention is over,
and as you no doubt have already
learned that we nominated JUS
tice Hughes for President and
former Vice-Pres. Fairbanks for
his running mate. predict that
this ticket will unite the party
and insure victory. Justice
Hughes had no campaign head
quarters and no managers. He
said nothing to hurt the feelings
of any other candidate. Every
body was treated considerably
and fairly. There are no sore
places. He has the confidence
and respect of the leaders and
voters in both wings of the party.
There is very little difference in
the platforms adopted by the
Republican and Progressive Con-
vention. Hughes in his accept
ance plants himself squarely on
the platform and comes out
strong for Americanism, tariff
and such preparedness as will
enable us to protect the rights of
American citizens on land and
sea, at home and abroad. His
telegram accepting the nominal
ton is an inspiration to every
American citizen. Col. Roose-
welt was candidate before the
Republican Convention. On the
first ballot he received 65 of the
1856 votes, on the second ballot
81 votes and on the third ballot
1914 votes to Hughes 949la votes.
Before the third ballot was taken
Col. Roosevelt sent telegram to
the Republican Convention re-
questing the delegates to nomi-
nate Senator Lodge of Massachu-
sets, but on a vote Lodge re-
ceived only seven votes. After
the End ballot the managers of
Root, Sherman, Fairbanks, Knox,
Dupont and Weeks got together
in an effort to defeat Hughes and
nominate one OF their number,
but it was impossible to check
the Hughes sentiment. The
people and delegates were for
Hughes. A large majority of the
delegates was of the opinion
that Hughes could come nearer
uniting the two wings of the
party than any other man in
either wing. Eleven of us dele
gates from Kentucky voted for

Bowel Complaints in India.
In a lecture at one Of the Des
Moines, Iowa, churches a mis-
sionary from India told of going
into the interior of India, where
he was taken sick, that he had a
bottle of Chamberlain's Collie,

with him and believed that it
saved his life. This remedy is
used successfully in India both as
