this fall would make success easier

Gov. Black did not follow Morrow
in naming a list of seven persons,
men and women, whom he would ap-
point to the State Board of Control.
He promised, however, to confer with
leading men and women of the State
before naming members of the State
Board of Control. The present law
he said, provides for board of five
members, but he favors Smaller
number.
Regarding Mr.. Morrow's criticisms
in connection with the Hardness tax
Compromise whereby the State was
deprived of millions of dollars in
taxes, Gov. Black said that within
three days after he succeeded Mr..
Stanley as Governor he directed that
an inquiry into this matter be started
while the only remedy, if a wrong had
been done, is through the courts, he
said, and the case is now pending.
The Governor charged plagiarism
on the part of Mr.. Morrow, asserting
that he had adopted as his own at
least two planks in the Democratic
platform. One of these calls for a
separate department of labor, and
the creation Of the Office of State
Labor Commissioner, and the other
would bring about production on
oil.

The governor endorsed the pri-
mary election and scored the "boss-
controlled" convention of the Repub-
lcians at Lexington, where, he said,
the G. o. P. ticket was named in adj
vance and the voters ignored.
Declaring that no candidate can
pose as being free from imperfec-
tions, he denounced the blantant crit
icism and fault finding" of his OPP
ponent and declared that he resented
being ignored by Mr.. Morrow, who
had devoted most of his attention to
the administration of Gov Stanley.

until the members terms expire in

work in connection with the readop-

Rhea Attacks C. o. p. Leaders.
Probably the most biting speech
of the opening was that of Mr.. Rhea.

Of Louisville, the "sub-boss."

mission of Mr.. Ballard recently be-

less per barrel for flour in Louisiana
than he charges in Kentucky.
Mr.. Rhea then referred to Mr..
Morrow's plan for eliminating poll

penal and charitable institutions of
the State. Persons whom Mr.. Nor

HARRIS Sees Victory.
Lieut.. Gov Harriss, in brief
speech, said the Democratic party
was united as never before, that it
had been true to the people, had. re-
deemed every platform pledge made
in 1915, and that with leader such
as practicable, sensible Jas. d.
Black" is was sure to win in Novem-
Der.
Mr. Morrow" he said, "and those
associated with him, tried to make
the people believe that the issue in
this campaign was narrow, person
al one, because Mr.. Stanley, when
Governor, did not do things to suit
the Republicans"
Mr.. Harriss added that Morrow had
been claiming to be better man
than Senator Stanley, butahas never
attempted to compare himself with
Governor Black.
Mr.. Harris said that the Republi-
cans tactily admit that all legislation,
except the State primary law, enact
ed by the Democrats under Stanley,
is good. They oppose the primary law,
he charged, to justify selection of
their candidates Eat the behest of q
coterie of Louisville politicians"
Holds League An Issue.
The contention of the Republicans
that the League of Nations is not an
issue in the present State campaign
was scoffed at by Mr.. Harriss, who
charged that they were attempting to
mislead the people like they did in
the Eighth district.
At the time King Swope, Republi-
can, was making his race for Con-
gress from that district he did, not
have the nerve to touch on the Lea
que Of Nations, Mr.. Harriss said, but
following his election, Republican
newspapers claimed that his success
was due largely to opposition to the
league.
Mr.. Cohen, in his address, said the
Democrats should not forget that
they have a real race on, but prophe-
sled that they would win if all Dem
ocrats go to the polls on election day.
Thirty Republicans, Mr.. Cohen
charged, are now on the State pay
roll. He told funny story or two
that convulsed his hearers with
laughter and when he left the stand
he was roundly applauded amidst
shouts of "Bring in another horse.

BIG MEN OF AFGHANISTAN
SETH Merchants, About Whom This
Country Knows Little, Are People
of Much Consequence.

The world is still a large place and
contains variety of men. The manu-
facturer who enters foreign trade
makes many discoveries that were not
disclosed in his school days. For. ex-
ample, in northwestern India he may
meet the SETH merchants. who con-
duct the trade Of Afghanistan. These
Mohammedan traders are men Of con-
sequence, and have their connections
throughout Asia. Before Russia disin-
tegrated they had branches in Petro-
grad and Moscow. They have their
places of business in all the central
Asia markets of importance, such as
Bokhara and Tashkent, and buy and
sell in Tientsin and Shanghai. Clearly
such merchants are men of conse-
quence in vast territories our own part
of the world scarcely guesses at. To
merchandising they add banking SELL
ing drafts on strange cities where a
European bank would look as out Of
place as an Afghan caravan on the Lin
coin highway.
These observation-disclosures of central
Asia may add to their adventures II
the Afghans persist In their warlike
demonstrations against the British in
India.

BAD DEBT BRINGS WEALTH
Texas Farm, Thrust on Kansas Banker,
Now Rich in Oil.


Thirty-live years ago J. z. Miller, Jr.,
now governor of the Kansas City Fed
eral Reserve bank, was forced, because
Of bad debt of 1854, to take posses
sion of an uncultivated farm of 100
acres five miles west Of Granger, Tex.
During the intervening years Mr.. Mil
Ter never was able to find anyone who
would cultivate the land nor anyone
who would buy it. Whenever the taxes
fell due, he was reminded that he
owned the land. There never was a
time that $40 an acre would not have
bought the farm, with the owners best
wishes thrown in.
The farm, so long a thorn in the side
of it's owner, now has become a source
of great wealth. An oil lease specula-
tor recently gave Mr. Miller a bonus Of
twice the former value Of the land for
the oil rights, Mr. Miller retaining one
eighth royalty. Wells were drilled and
recently one began yielding 1900 bar
rels day.
Experts now estimate that the 100
acre farm which never earned any,
thing, will have a production Of $4,000
barrels Of oil a day when completely
drilled.
