PROF. T. M. SCOTT CONDEMNS
BRECKINRIDGE'S CRITICISMS

I'm last Saturdays issue of The
Herald, Mr.. Stivers quotes me as
denouncing Mr.. Breckinridege's Sc
we're and unreasonable criticisms Of
Mr.. Baker. / was not intending
what 1 said at an interview or
WOULD have probably made my
statements in a different form. How
ever, he is substantially correct in
what he said. After reading what
he said, and after Mr.. A. S. Thomp-
sons sweeping statement, 1 thought
possibly 1 was mistaken about the
views of my compatriots in Bourbon
county. My impression has been
formed from expressions which had
heard around the business places of
our little city. So l concluded I
would interview a few men and see
what were their true convictions
upon the subject.
81 saw some thirty prominent bus
mess men Of the town and county
and failed to find one who endorses
Mr.. Breckinridge's course, and found
some very bitter in their denuncia-
tions of his senseless attacks, and
most of them accounted for his po-
sition because of a crouch he had
against the administration. 1 do say
Mr.. Breckenridge is pursuing very
unwise course. l cannot see how he
expects to help win this war by his
denunciation and criticism of the
men who are devoting their best tai
ents and abilities to do all they can
for our country. To say the least,
| Mr.. Breckenridge has not given Mr..
Baker fair deal. He has the most
gigantic undertaking upon his
hands that has ever fallen to the lot
of man, and in the opinion of those
who are in position to know, ne
has made good. Mr.. Wilson endors-
es Mr.. Baker and that is enough for
me and should be for every loyal
| patriotic American.
IF, after fair trial and after a
fair and reasonable time, Mr.. Baker
fails, Mr.. Wilson will be absolutely
certain to remove him, for Mr.. Will
son, more than any other man, will
be held responsible for the war, and
will rise or fall in the estimation of
the people of this great country, by
/ the way he conducts this war. He
could not afford to keep a man at
the head of the greatest department
of our government at this critical
time were he incompetent.

a controversy, but since Mr.. Stiver7
has seemed to put me in a class by
myself, I felt it due me and my fel-
low citizens of Bourbon county, to
be put right on this most important
question.
81 do not hesitate to say that
have never known a more loyal and
patriotic set of men than those OF
Bourbon county. After my investi

course.

STATE FOOD COMMISSIONER AID.
DRESSES LARGE AUDIENCE

A large audience gathered at the
court house Tuesday night to hear
the address by State Food Commits
sioner F. NJ Sackett, of Louisville.
The crowd was much larger than
expected on account of the weather
and condition of pavements and
streets.
Mr.. Sackett's address was a most
excellent one, from every viewpoint,
and was we'll calculated to impress
upon his auditors the necessity Of
food conservation by every one.

BLUE PENCIL FAMINE
MAY CHEAT SOLDIERS
OUT OF THEIR VOTES
Internationai News Service:

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. April %
A famine OF blue pencils may cheat
Indiana soldiers and other absen-
tee voters out of a chance to cast
ballots at the polls next November.
The danger is real. il was believed
here today, following receipt of a
letter from Ele Stansbury. attorney
general. by L. w. Henley. republican
state secretary, in which Stansbury
said hat a canvas of Indianapolis
stores failed TO produce any blue
pencils.
The law says the ballots must be
marked with blue pencil. No other
kind will do. Furthermore, the blue
must be uniform. No running up
and down the color scale is tolerated
by the law. This is provided by law
so that one ballot cannot be dis
tinguished from another through
lack of uniformity. Since the SOL
der ballots are to be tossed into
the ballot boxes with others. it is
obvious. Stansbury says. that the
marking must he identical in color
with those east in Indiana.

in a culvert near the soldiers home

The story OF how an agent OF the
federal government rushed here
from Washington and joined special
agents Of the Indiana bureau of the
department Of justice in running
down the source Of the note. which
obviously was destined for Potsdam,
has just come to light.
The federal agents arrived in
Marion on Thursday and then be-
gan the hunt FOR Hun spies. They
called upon the county council of
for aid, and the sheriff assigned
Deputies Bert Fowler and John
Ruggles TO the case. To Deputy
Fowler fell the honor of tracking
the kaiser's agents 10 their lair.
Asks Friend to Help.
After exhausting the regular
methods of spy hunting, Fowler dis
covered a friend who might help.
Across the top of the paper were
the words:
"AIee-Morse telegraph code, ap-
proved by the United States civil
service commission"
"Alee-Morsel'' There's the clue.
The friend knew two young men
named Alec and Morse, so on Sun
day morning the deputies and secret
agents rounded up Thurman Morse,
10 years old, student at the Marion
Normal institute. and Claude Alec,
b~ookkeeper at the Standard Chain
works.
The officers showed Morse the
message. Translate that" he was
directed. and he did, exactly as the
government operative had done.
Where did you get hat code? ?" the
officers demanded.
I'VE invented it," was the reply.
Then the bitter truth came out.
The department Of justice agents
had travelled all the way from
Washington and indianapolis just to
spoil a boys war game. The youths
explained that Durward and Gerald
were a couple Of boys who were
wise" to their secret and wanted
to "swipe' their code.
The government men gave the
boys a lecture on the dangers Of
tampering with code stuff in these
trying times and then went their
way. seeking bigger game.
