Only few days until the voters of
the old Eighth congressional district
are to be asked the question whether
or not they endorse the efforts that
Woodrow Wilson has made to make
the world safe for peace for all time
to come. Will they send man to
Washington to heckle and critcise
him OF man who will ever be found
supporting him in his great work.
There is no other question involved in
this special congressional election.
Do you, Mr.. Voter believe that
Woodrow Wilson is doing right in adj
vocating the peace treaty and the
League of Nations to preserve world
peace, or are you with Senators
Borah, Lodge and the others who
seem to care for nothing except to
make political capital. On the one
hand stands Judge Hardin with Will
son and on the other King Swope
against Wilson. Take your choice.
The Courier Journal stated the case
cogently the other day in the follow
ing.
Opposed candidates in the Eighth
Congressional District are King
Swope, Of Boyle county, and Judge
Charles A. Hardin, of Mercer. The
Republicans will make an energetic
effort to capture a Democratic dis
trict by electing Mr.. Swope. The
Courier-Journal would not assail Mr..
Swope, but it can say, and feels
obliged to say, without the slightest
intention of discourtesy to the Re-
publican candidate, that it hardly
can be argued that his qualifications
for the Office he seeks, as indicated
by antecedent activities and achiev-
ments, are equal to those of the
Democratic candidate.
Kentucky. normally a Democratic
State, should at this critical period
of history, the beginning of the re-
construction period in Europe and
the readjustment period in America,
when Congress will be called upon
as never before for wise decisions,
have in Washington as her represent
tative men who will support the
policies of the Democratic party,
which more truly than those of the
party now in power in Congress re-
fleet the sentiment of the majority
in America. The death of Repre-
sentative Helm robbed Kentucky of
one Democrat in Congress. Another
should be sent to fill the vacancy
Judge Hardin is an ardent Democrat
and capable man.
The Republicans will concentrate
upon the election in the Eighth Dis
trict effort which would at regular
election be devoted to several dis
tricts, hoping to make the loss of a
seat in the House by the Democrats
seem slap at the League of Nations
which many Republicans in the Sen
ate oppose. Democrats should keep

this in mind, at election time and be-
tween this time and the election,
and leave undone nothing that need
be done to insure for Judge Hardin
a victory sufficiently decisive to show
where the Eighth District stands and
how Judge Hardin stands in the
Eighth District.
Judge Hardin, far from uttering a
Macedonian cry, sends telegram to
the chairman of the National Demo-
cratic Congressional Committee in
Washington, saying he does not need
assistance, which has been offered

What makes the Senate nag
