ANNOUNCEMENTS
THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
SHIP NOMINATION.

ShlH NUN INA lON.
JUDGE Frank Z. Da ugherty. of
Bardstown, and Ryland &c. Mu
sick. of Jackson, 'in the 9th Cor
gressional District, are the con-
tending candidates for the Demo.
cratic nomination for Attorney
General. Which one should the
Democrats nominate?
Dangherty lives in the 4th
Congressional District and spends
a great deal of his time In the
city of Louisville Musick is
originally from Scott County ,ibut
lives now, and has for years, in
Jackson, Breathitt County. He
is well known in Central and
Northern Kentucky. He is So
Der and industrious man. He is
a clean, upright man and recog-
nized as a good lawyer He is
aggressive and believes thorough
ly in a better and more enlight-
enedand progressive Kentucky.
But what of Judge Daugherty?
He was once Commonwealth At
torney of the 10th Judicial Dis
trict. His nomination for that
Office was very doubtful and in
1915, his opponent, whom he had
defeated for the nomination in
loco, came back and won over
Daugherty for the nomination for
the same Office. By reason of
these two fights and for other
reasons not necessary to mention
here, Daugherty is looked upon
as not a very strong candidate in
his own bailiwicb.
But there is another reason
why Daugherty should not be
nominated and one that every
Democrat who loves his State
and his Party should carefully
consider. Eli Brown is Judge
Daugherty's sponsor and cham
pion. The moment Eli Brown
heard of any worthy, honest and
capable Democrat being urged to
run for Attorney General, he
would Immediately set about,
with every means at his command
to stop such a movement. He
would not only use messengers
but letters and kilograms in his
efforts to keep them out Of the
race. Brown claimed that Daugh.
erty has already organized the
State with his assistance and
that no one has a chance to de
feat him; that certain powerful
influences are behind Daugherty,
which spells victory.
Such methods have been
adopted and used by Eli Brown
on men who were not even seri-
ously thinking of running for
the nomination but whom Brown
had heard mentioned for the
place. He even attempted to
prevent Ryland Musick from run
ming as he frowned on and dis
couraged the entry of others
against Daugherty. Brown was
determined, if possible, that
Daugherty, should have no oppo
silion. Why should the bosom
friend and rich beneficiary of
Stanley's administration champ
ion Daugherty's campaign? Is
he to be appointed special coun-
sci in important cases like he
was in the now famous Hardness
tax case in the City ct Lexlngtoa?
We do not know Mr. Musick
personally, but before discussing
the respective merits of these
two men for the place they Seek.
we set about honestly and COZ
scientiously to obtain the truth
as to both of them. Neither can
didate is under any obligation to-
