SER FOR
INAUGURATION
Frankfort Busily Arranges Details
For Notable Event Decem-
ber 9Th.

Frankfort, KY, Dec. 1.-Frank-
fort and Franklin county, probably
the most stalwart in their Democra-
cy in the State, judging by the last
two state elections, as usual have laid
aside partisanship in anticipation of
the inauguration December 8.
Democrats and Republicans, with
out distinction, are working on plans
to entertain the visitors and arrange
ments of detail The crowd from
out of town for the most part will
be Republicans, but to Frankfort it
is new Governor and new local
committee in charge, and the COM
mittee has only one idea and that is
to show some former committees
that they overlooked several things
to make the event notable.
1t is evident this early that the
inauguration will excel in the one
feature dear to the heart
of capital city residents brass
bands. There are going to be more
bands than ever before. Frankfort
people know from experience that
they can't have too many bands in
a parade, and numerous marching
have reported that
they are coming with their own mu-
sic.
