HEAD OF "ANOTHER TICKET
FOR SHERIFF" GETS SORE

IN the last issue of THE BOURBON
NEWS several political announce
ments appeared. We tried to say
something nice about each individual
that was running for Office and had
given us his announcement.
For the past eighteen months there
has been considerable talk of an "op-
ent incumbents, Messrs. w. G. McClin-
took and Ollie Marshall, with Mr.
Robert Gilkey added as deputy. MI
merOus tickets have been suggested
and on the eve of announcing. at the
last minute they all got cold feet"
Feeling assured that when the Nc
Clintock ticket handed in their official
announcement that there would be no
opposition, we prepared the customary
complimentary notice calling attention
to it, and we made it little strong,
as we believed the boys deserved the
best that could be said about them.
However, the day after the notice had
been put into type, ANOTHER tickle.
had been formed to take chance.
They brought in their announcement.
AS customary, we attempted to say
something nice about them, and to
modify the elaborate notice we had al
ready in type about the McClintOck
ticket, but in marking out the cream
of the bull we failed to lift out the
last sentence on the following lines:
int -hn 70
ct, has worked untiringly for all the
nominees who have been candidates
in the past on the Democratic ticket,
and has spent both time and money
freely to defeat the Republican who
may have had the nerve to try and
defeat a good Democrat in Bourbon
county. He is fearless. honorable and
efficient. and VIII G's' word is taken
as his bond. He should not have op-
position"
Mr.. Clarke, who is financing the new
ticket. is very much incensed at the
He should have no opposition and
thinks that we should make n correc-
ton, and in fact, demanded it. II he
could not get it in THE BOURBON
NEWS he would get it elsewhere. In
reply we told MIR. Clarke that we
would take the matter under consider
alton and would probably explain it to
the readers of THE NEWS why we
had said that Billy McClintock should
have no opposition
! After considering the matter thor
oughly, we have decided to grant Mr..
Clarke's DEMAND, and to say, that

for, we are glad of it"

Keeping Graft Out of
