GINGER EXTRACT HELD
TO Be INTOXICATING

Druggists and soft drink estab-
Hshments which are selling a ginger
extract containing about 80 percent
alcohol had better look out, if the
higher courts sustain a decision OF
the Richmond court this week that
uch drink is intoxicating, and sub
jects the seller to a charge of vio-
lating the local option law. It is said
that cases of sale Of this drink which
have so far come before the authori-
ties, have been those who innocently
did SO, not aware of the Intoxicating
qualities of this bevrage.

nominated or elected this fall for a
full term in the gubernatorial chair,
the above statement still holds good.
His speech today is the opening In
his campaign for the nominations and
election, and it is peculiarly fitting
that Gov. Black shoul come to Rich
mond to deliver this address, few can
didates who have gone before the
people have ever had so strong a
hold upon the democracy of Madison
county as Gov. Black, and unless
there should be some remarkable
change in the sentiment of the peo-
pie here before August End, it now
seems certain that he will carry this
county by large majority over all
of his opponents.
There is good crowd in town to
attend the opening of his campaign.
All brougt reports that Gov. Black
is very strong in their several com
munities. With Tom Rhea out of the
running, predictions are being free
ly made by the friends of Gov.
Black that he will receive more votes
in the primary than all of the other
candidates combined.
Attorney w. H. H. Reynolds, of
Stanford, headed the Lincoln county
delegation to the. speaking. Mr.. Rey-
nolds is campaigning for Gov. Black
in Lincoln. He said that Gov. Black
will sweep Lincoln by an overwhelm-
ing majority both in the primary and
in the regular election. Others here
from Lincoln were Editor E. C. Wal

Gov. Blacks address began at too
late an hour for the Daily Register
to give the meat if it in today's is

salient features Monday. As the
governor did not reach town until
o'clock, the Daily Register was un-
able to obtain an advance copy of
his speech.

.REPUB. CANDIDATE
WELL KNOWN HERE

Perhaps the best locally known man
on the republican state ticket en-
dorsed for nomination this week is
Hon. James A. Wallace, of Estill
county, brother Of Hon. C.. C. Wal
lace, of Richmond. Mr.. Wallace often
visits Richmond and has many warm
friends here. In its Sketches Of the
republican candidates, the Lexington
Leader had the following about Mr..
Wallace which win be read with in
terest by his friends here:
The selection Of James A. Wallace
banker, and prominent business man,
Of Irvine, EstilI county, for the nom
nation for State Treasurer, was a
happy one for several reasons. In the
hrst place he is an able and success
ful financier; secondly, he is widely
known and popular, with the rank and
file of the Republican party and third
~, 1T was a deserved recognition of
the Republicans of the upper Ken
lucky River Valley, who have always
loyalty supported the Republican
State ticket. Mr.. Wallace is cashier of
the Farmers Bank of Estill county,
at Irvine and has aieded materially in
the developement of the industry in
his section. For several years he was
circuit clerk of Estill county, and car
ried the county by such a decisive
majority, that he was later put for
ward by his friends for the Repubh-
can nomination of State Treasurer
four years ago at the Louisville con-
vention but which he lost by very
narrow margin. With the pluck and
courage which has been one of his
dominant characteristics thru life,
however, and strongly believing, in
the maxim eff at first you don't
succeed, try, try again." he has
"come back" and his friends believe
that this time his ambition will be
fully rewarded at the November cleo
tion, when he will be declared by the
voters the next State Treasurer. Mr..
Wallace, who is a brother to the Hon.
c. c. Wallace, of Richmond, for years
one of the prominent Republican
leaders of Madison county, fire.
quently mentioned for Congress in
the Eighth district. has been active
In Republican politics in his section
for the past decade, and has been a
delegate from this district to several
national Republican conventions. He
is regarded as one of the strongest
candidates on the State ticket.

LAME DUCK LED THE WAY
(By Associated Press)

Washington, May 1.-THE Ameri-
can naval seaplane NC-4 under Lieu
tenant Commander Read attained its
first objective in its Atlantic
flight, having landed safely at Horta,
Island of Fayal, Azores at 9:2O Wash
ington time, this morning, after wind
ing its way from Trepassey Bay, New
Foundland in Is hours and 1S minutes
The NC-1 and the NC-3 were then ap-
proXimately 100 miles away.
Lieutenant Commander Read reach
ed Horta several hours ahead of his
schedule, officials having estimated
that 20 hour would be required to
reach, Ponta Delgada, in face of the
fact that the NC-4 was the "lame
Guck" of the division from the time il
started from Rockaway Beach, Long
Island. 1t landed twice to make re-
pairs on the way to Trepassey and
later intalled three new motors. De
pite these handicaps, it led the way to
the Azores practically all night but the
machine which achieves the distinc-
tion of being the first to cross the At
lantic will be that which arrives at
Lisbon, Portugal first, the European
landing place of the flight. and then
starting for the last leg to Plymouth,
England.
While the performance of the NC-4
is view as the most spectacular in the
history of heavier-than-air craft, yet
it equalled the American navy record
for neither duration nor distance. The
greatness of it's feat is said to lie in
the fact that the flight was entirely
over water.
