was a candidate for County At
torney and L. c. Duff was a candi-
date for County Judge and the gem
tlemen who opposed us in the pri-
mary had control of the County or

election that they took the nomin-
alton from us by force and fraud.
We have four Precincts or Wards
in Hazard and our opponents had
control of about two hundred illegal
and floating votes which they voted
at each of the said Wards and then,
not being satisfied. they obtained
about three or four dozen new suits
of Overalls and took these voters to
a basement under a storerOOm in
Hazard and had the voter change
his old clothes for a new suit of
overalls and in this way they again
voted the crowd and voted them at
each of the four Wards. We at
tempted to correct this by organizing
a fusion ticket and Il. c. Duff, the
man who makes this affidavit, headed
that ticket as the candidate for
County Judge. E. c. Duff was after
wards elected County Judge on the
Republican ticket and served four
years.
During that four years, James
Halliday, the other gentleman vino
makes an affidavit, was Tailor of the
County and he and Duff conducted
themselves in such a way, became
so immoral and corrupt, that the
people of the County defeated Duff
for reelection and also defeated the
brother OF Halliday for sheriff, al
though they were the nominees Of

EMPIRE,

Fair and Warmer" presented last night at the Empire theatre, with May Allisen-dainty and appealing May Allison-as the star, has, to use the effective if coIloquial expression, all other pictures we have seen be- fore completely backed off the map.
 The hilarious sage success of Avery Hopwood, which was presented for so long in New York, other parts of the country, and in London, with such success, has been done into pie ture form not only without the loss of any of the intrinsic punch and hu- nor, but with an additional merit. The play which Selwyn and Company offered on the stage has been produc- ed exceptionally well by Screen Classics, Inc.
 May Allison is at once charming g and delft in her portrayal of ingenious young Blanny Wheeler, whose hus- band isn't half the gay dog he wants her to think he is; and others in the cast-Pen Trenton, Eugene Palette, Christine Mayo, William Buckley and Fife Conley-give the star splendid support. The quality of the produc- tion bears testimony to the value of Maxwell Karger's supervision; and Henry Otto's skill in direction is mo- ticeabIe throughout.

POETS-

The name of Douglas Fairbanks has become a synonym for pep and action. That's the reason he's so popular-and in His Majesty the American" which opened a weeks stand at Polls last night, the young movie star continued in his course of capturing the fancy of his public.
 Just because Doug wanted to find f;s mother, he turned a. kingdom top ;x..sdrvy. And when Doug starts out "a Go something, he generally does it up brown.
 Fairbanks has never been seen to better advantage. He romped and frollicked through the play in his customary debonair manner, and fin putting out a really excellent feature was given the assistance of a capable cast, headed by little Marjory Daw- herself a prime favorite. His Ma jesty, the American will cure the blues-there's no doubt about that.
 Fatty Arbuckle made his reappear- ance on the screen last night in Back Stage" a farce built around Fatty's exploits in the theatre. Those who haven't seen Arbuckle as a Shakesp pearian tragedian have a gen uine- treat coming to them. ' Bound and Gagged" the new serial continued on it's winning way, the third episode adding new tension to well worth while. Pathe News and National Topics concluded the pro- gram.
 Fairbanks and ArbuckIe, plus d very good vaudeville show headed by the Cansino brothers, direct from the Winter Garden, will be seen begin ming today.
