the other candidates for State
Offices, several Democrats of
national reputation will be pres.
ent. 1t is expected that many
thousand willlbe Tin attendance,
and everything points to a big

that the subordinates named

A year ago this November the
Republicans somewhat surprised,
themselves by carrying both
branches of Congress. and many
of them quickly assumed that
that meant that they could not
lose the coming Presidential
race. But the fight being made
upon the peace treaty by Senator
Lodge and others is injuring the
Republican party very seriously.
It may be that the tide is on the
turn. The Republicans had the
cards after their success of las
November, but their representa-
tives in Congress are playing
them very badly. Ali that thi
Congress has done is summed u
in the repeal of the tax on sod
water and OF daylight saving. :

gentlemanly, presentation, of his
candidacy. While he is an ar
dent Republican, and stands for
the principles laid down in the
State Republican platform, he
had not an abusive word to utter
against the opposite party. He

ENCOURAGING TO DEMOCRATS.

The Lexington Leader, the
leading Republican newspaper in
that section, thus admonishes
the Republicans not to be too
confident about the result of the
election in November.
''If the Republicans of Ken
lucky haye an idea it will be
comparative easy to defeat Gov
ernor Black this fall, they may
wake up in the morning after
the election to find that they
were sadly mistaken.
But Judge Black was not the
weakest candidate in the Demo
cratic primary. He was never
in the slightest danger of defeat
at the hands of Judge Carroll.
He will poll in the general cleo
ton ten thousand more votes
than Judge Carroll would have
polled.
"The Republican party mana
gers can not afford to rest any
hopes whatever on presumptive
weaknesses of Judge Black.
There is fight enough in this
campaign to satisfy the most ag-
gressive leader. "-Jessamine
