Kentucky State Memorial.

In the European war, 2,726
Kentuckians, both men and
women, gave their lives in the
various pursuits of that tragic
enterprise that humanity might
be free; that autocracy might
not again menace the race and
the world might bea better place
in which to live.
The record Of KeEtucky's part
in that momentous struggle adds
a new and luminous page to the
history not only of the Common
wealth but of the nation-a page
in which the story of her price,
less sacrifice. the courage of her
immortal sons, the patriotism of
her daughters, will be a source
of inspiration and pride through
out all the years to come. Of
that magnificent army Of men
who turned their faces, when
duty called. toward the battle
fronts of Europe, that twenty
seven hundred did not return, is
inspiring testimonial to their
historic valor in defense of the
flag and the principles of free
government for which their fore.

Ed MOrrow's Chestnuts.

In opening his campaign for
Governor Col. Ed Morrow devot-
ed a good deal of his time in dis
cussing old Republican chestnuts
He declared that if elected he
would abolish a lot of useless
Offices. We have heard a good
many candidates for Governor
promise this, but we have never
seen any Of the offices abolished.
Bradley promised it, yet when
he was elected he found a Re-
publican to fill every Office at the
disposal of the Administration.
Gus Wilson was very positive
that the people of the State
should elect him in order to get
rid of a lot of them. Not a single
office was abolished, and the
people can expect nothing better
of Morrow than Bradley or Viii
son.
The candidate from Somerset
also talks about the wasteful ex-
travagance of the Democratic
party. So did Bradley and Will
son, but instead of decreasing
the expenses of the State they
both increased them.

Welded On A Stump.

1t was in Mariposa county, Cal
ifornia, a locality noted for trees
of enormous growth. The top of
a redwood stump, smooth and
level as the woodmen's saw had
left it, and over twenty feet in
diameter, was the place chosen
for this wedding ceremony. Dec
grated with the wonderful wild
flowers of the region and sur
rounded by giant trees, no place
chosen could be more beautiful
or impressive.
The bride and bridegroom, the
minister and fifty guests, ascend.
ed a few flights of steps about
six feet to the top of the stump
and found seats provided and
ample room for all.
After the ceremony seats were
removed and dancing took place,
