The November election passed OF
quietly in this city and county
Tuesday. In fact, if it had been much
quieter, it would have made a dis
tinct noise. There was very little in
terest displayed, and the vote was a
rather light one. The fact that so
many voters of the city and county
are now in the army and navy ser
vice, and the enforcement of the in
fluenza ban was given by the cam
paign managers as reasons for the
falling off in the vote. A new fea-
ture of the day was the submission
to each voter of what was practically
a QUESTIONABLE, in which he was
asked history of his life,. the real
object being to assist the Government
in the work-or-fght regulations.
Bourbon county complete gave for
Senator, Stanley, D., 1858; Bruner,
R., 1872; for Congressman, Cantrill,
d., 1868; Hammond, R., 1918. The
vote is given in tabulated form In
another part of this issue.
In the Seventh District, composed
| of the counties of Bourbon, Clark
Estill, Fayette, Franklin, Henry
! Oldham, Lee and Powell. Stanley's
majority over Bruner was SAL;
Cantrill over Hammond, 1884. The
election of Stanley for Senator wa:
conceded by a majority ranging close
to 5000.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO NEW
DRAFT REGISTRANTE.

Registrars for military service
must be classified in accordance with
the Selective Service Regulations and
not in accordance with the brief in
dicatory. statements of the ques-
tionnaire. These subdivisions are
merely to be regarded as guide to
indicate the proper subdivisions act
ually belong.
This instruction was mailed Wed
nesday by Major Henry F. Rhodes,
Chief of Selective Service in Ken
lucky to all the local boards In Ken
lucky. The occasion for this instruc-
ton is that many of the question:
aries were printed before the last
draft law was passed by Congress
and as a result there is a conflict be-
tween some of the provisions of the
statute and the QUESTIONABLE.
For the present the involuntary
induction of registrants of Septem-
Der, 1918, class shall be construed to
include only registrants who were on
September IL, 1918, between the ages
of 10 and So. In the induction OF
men into the army the age of the reg
istrant shall be construed to mean the
age ON September IL.

THE INFLUENZA SITUATION AP-
PARENTLY IMPROVING

From all indication the influenza
situation in this city and county Is
very much better, and the authorf-
ties are now more than ever confident
that the critical stage Of the disease
has passed, and that from now ON
the situation will be better While
the epidemic shows signs of having
abated there have been only few
new cases reported. The authorities
were not prepared to state yesterday
just when the ban would be lifted
and Paris allowed to resume its nor.
NAL way of living.
While conditions are so much bet
ter in the city the Board Of Health
has warned the people against re-
taxing in the slightest the most
rigid observance of the regulations
that have contributed toward stamp
ing out the disease. In their opin-
ion there would be yet some. danger
in lifting the ban on pulic gather
ings, and that they had not as yet
felt justified in even assuming such
a possibility.
g.. At a meeting of the State Board Of
Health, held at the Seelbaeh Hotel,
in Louisville, Wednesday, the ban
was lifted in only three counties In
the State-Jefferson, Graves and
Warren. In other counties the clos
ing order stands as it was at first
, issued, except by application to the
various County Health Boards and
their action, If favorable, must first
be approved by telegraph by the ex-
ecutive members of the State Board.

To the Citizens of Bourbon County.

| AS resident pastors of the county
we wish to give full and unqualified
endorsement to the United War Work
campaign, which is to be conducted
/ throughout the Nation during the
coming week. We are in hearty and
unanimous accord with the united
program for raising these funds for
welfare work among the soldiers and
hope and believe that generous and
| unselfish support will be given the
campaign by the loyal citizens OF
Bourbon county.
! AS you doubtless already know
the seven War Work organizations
that are recognized by our govern
ment and that are uniting in this
campaign for funds at the request Of
President Wilson are: The Y. M. C..
A, the Y. w. G.. A, National Cath
alic War Council tx. of c., Jew
ish Welfare Board, the War Commu-
nifty Service, American Library Asso-
citation, and the Salvation Army
Never before In the history of the
world has there been such a union as
this of religious and social welfare
bodies in a common and concerted
effort for the good of mankind. In
our opinion this united effort at this
time BODIES no ill, but only good, to
the cause of righteousness in the
earth.
If any person insists that his con-
tribution should go specifically to any
one of these organizations named
that privilege will not be denied him,
but the idea of such specific giving

mittee, and we most respectfully sug-
gest that the people of this county

land let the National Committee pro-
rate the total upon the percentage
basis that has already been worked
out and agreed upon by the seven or
Examinations participating. Let it be

We wish very earnestly to call at
tention to one other very important
matter. WHATEVER the OUTCOME
of the PRESENT PEACE NEGOTI-
ATOMS, THIS UNITED CAMPAIGN
MUST GO OVER. The world is now
looking upon the disentegration of a
large portion, if not nearly all, OF
Central Europe. Russia has already
4 gone to pieces, Austria-Hungary Is
being torn to bits and in fashion
that is almost pitiable, Turkey may
likewise crumble, and it is not beyond
the range of possibility that wher
the German army is forced to sur

Isee that they have been betrayed BY

Our whole national Organization il.
united in conviction that the War
Work activities of the seven organi-
zations must continue to be- pressed
with full and increasing vigor. That
whenever peace comes it will be fol-
lowed by long period of demobiliza-
tion- Military authorities say it viii
take fifteen months to bring Canadian
Army home, and eighteen months for
Australian army. ALI military author
titles with whom have consulted In
s1st 1T will require over twelve
months after peace is declar-
ed to bring American Army home.
This rehabilitation period win pre-
sent greatest need for our work and
by far our greatest opportunity.
Therefore. there should be no hesita-
ton or change in any of our cam
paign plans, except that of enlarging
them and redoubling our efforts to
secure, if possible, ffftey per cent over
subscriptions.

Will have to wait, and it would seem
in all fairness that armies of our
country, being the last over, should
be the last back We must, there
fore, accustom ourselves to a long
period of rehabilitation, even though
the war should end soon.
Generalization means demoraliZa-
tion," is an expression that has gone
out of the experiences of armies in
the past. This should not, must not
be true of the demoboIization after

| tanned by our soldiers in the canton
ments and on the field will come to
naught. But whether it, is true or
not, will depend upon the manner in
which these welfare organizations are
supported and enabled to carry on
their work
Therefore, whether the war ends
this week or next year, we must go
over the top with this drive for every
dollar and probably more will be
needed before the period of demobili-
zation is over.
