Lawrence County Man
Has Known Judge John
Carroll from BOyhOOd

CITIZENS OF LAWRENCE CO.:
Often do we hear grumbling about
conditions; often do we hear criti-
cisms OF our officers; often do we
blindly cast our vote for man who
does not have our interests at heart.
So-when the opportunity come up,
and REAL MAN presents himself for
office, it is time that right thinking
people look to it that such man be
placed in our offices OF trust, and the
interests of the people cared for; and !
feel it my duty to speak of man who
is now asking for office upon the
Democratic ticket in the person of
Judge John d. Carroll.
i am not chance acquaintance of
Judge John d. Carroll. We were born
and raised in the same county in Ken
tucky-Henry county. / have known
him since his boyhood days when he
wore patched breeches; l knew him as
the barefoot boy: as struggling
young man; as lawyer just starting,
and as a successful Judge of the Su-
preme Court of our State. HE WAS
A POOR BOY-if there ever was one;
HE is A SELF MADE MANI there
ever was one; HE is A MAN OF AND
FROM THE PEOPLE. He knows, the
needs OF the people. and he has the
courage and honesty of purpose to
confront the enemy Of the great com
mon people and secure from them the
rights that are due to us. He is an
honest, Christian gentleman; one who
is so beloved that he was elevated to
Supreme Bench upon two occasions
without opposition from either party.
He is not a politician, and they are
against him because they know they
can not control him.
Knowing Judge Carroll. as ! do, ]
am exerting all my influence in his
behalf and II nominated will continue
the fight to the end.

ADMINISTRATION, VOTE FOR

JUDGE CARROLL
FOR GOVERNOR

The Louisville Post, an Independent
newspaper has the following to say
about Hon, John d. Carroll for Gov
ernor:
John d. Carroll is the man the DEM
ocrats of Kentucky should, at the
State primary which is now close upon
us. nominate for the important office
of Governor. He is the best equipped
man for this office Of the mon that
are offering in either party and IL
elected he would make better Gov
srnor than could any Of the others.
1t is our deliberate opinion that he
would be $4,000, perhaps 10000 votes
stronger before tho people in Novem-
ber than his principal opponent for the
nomination, Governor James d. Black.
Judge Carroll has occupied unique
position all through this canvass.
From the day he first made known his
intention OF leaving the bench OF the
Court OF Appeals and Offering for Gov
ernor there has been no denial in any
quarper OF his ability TO make a good
Governor. He has made an admirable
Judge OF the Court of Appeals and an
admirable presiding officer as Chief
Justice. He was a member of the
Constitutional Convention OF Kentucky,
and is the author OF the standard book
upon Kentucky statutes. He under
stands Kentucky, her people and her
public men. He is a man of high per-
sonal integrity and undoubted firmness
OF character. With such attributes
there is every reason why Ihe should
make both good Governor and a good
candidate.
Judge Carroll has remained in the
race while other candidates have come
and gone, and the list OF good men
who are supporting Judge Carroll has
been lengthening every day,
The truth, then. is that Judge Car
roll is the best fitted man to the Gov
ernor OF Kentucky for whom the peo-
pie can vote this year, and he 10 q
man who, in any company, would be
pronounced strong material for this
office. He stands now on his own
merits He is making his own race; II
nominated and elected he will himself
be the Governor and the State will
have good Governor.
The Evening Post hoped, week or
two ago, that Governor Black, after
passing from the office OF Lieutenant
Governor to that OF Governor, would
evince qualities OF leadership. II he
had shown strength OF character, had
shown a determination to clean house,
he would have become the logical can
didate for the Democratic party: for
he could point constantly to acts done
to results achieved, while other candi-
dates would be of necessity confined
to promises as to what they would do.
But the opportunity has como TO
Governor Black and he has let II slip
from him; he has shown himself in
capable OF leadership. or else unwilling
to take a firm stand. The fact that
the opportunity for strong action came
to him and that he failed TO make use
OF it puts him in much worse posi-
ton than IL he had never become
Governor and the opportunity had not
been his.
