the Counties of Barren, Metcalf and

" hen Adair County came into the

County expressed their willingness to

was conceded to be Barren's time to

every one, it matters not the

are found, and if the proof is
sufficient, should be put to death.
Such action upon the part of the

THOUGHTS ON THE SENATORIAL
RACE.

The Adair County Democratic
Committee publishes a preamble
and a bunch of resolutions in to-
days News, dealing with the
Senatorial outlook in this the
10Th district. The News knows
as well as the committee, that
under the implied agreement
that it is Adair's time to furnish
the Democratic candidate, and
there was no other thought in
the minds of the Democrats
throughout this county. With
this inImind MIR. ]. R. Garrett
announced his candidacy. and in
a very short time thereafter Mr..
C. Haskell Miller, who claims
Metcalfe as.his home, but in re-
atty he spends the most of his
time in Glasgow, announces for the
same: position. Now some party
or parties about Glasgow is back
ing Mr.. MILLER, and is not look
ing to the interest of the Demo
craticjs. party.EA There must be
fair sailing ain this District to
win in thesss. November election,
and if a serious contention has
arisen, and is not averted, there
is not the. slightest chance for
the Democratic candidate, il
mattersEnot who he may be, to
win at.:November. A fair mind.
ed man need not hesitate to come
to this conclusion, Adair county
hassacted square with Metcalfe
andsBarren county, and at this
time she demands justice. By
the way, the Edmonton News,
Democratic paper, stated editor
tally, last week, that it wa
| Adair's time. Look over thu
situation, and if you want to SCI
the district represented by
Democrat, do your best to brini
about a reconciliation. If tn
committees of the three countie
meet and decide that it is no
Adair's time, then Adair Wi
have no candidate, and will sup
port the nominee.

Americans fought to "estab-

fore unbelievable that they
would allow the fruit of that VIC
tory to be spoiled to satisfy the
ambition of a few selfish parti-
sans. Because the League of
Nations is the only guarantee
that can be offered to make the
victory over militarism lasting,
the American people are making
their approval of the covenant

L OlQ anu QJQ IL WITHOUT any
political ambition. At that time
Senator M. o. Scott, of Edmon-
ton, was the representative of
the District composed of Barren,
Monroe and Metcalfe. To his
valient service, efficient political
sagacity and his sterling Democ-
racy the district dropped Mon !
roe with 1000 Republican ma
jority and took Adair with her
300, making a Democratic dis
trict by 600. Senator Scott filled
his term when Barren claimed
next. 1t was granted by Met
calfe and Adair under the agree
ment and policy that each coun-
ty should take it's term. This
time it is Adair's time and &C.
cording to party policy, in the
district. Mr.. Garrett should not
have opposition outside of his
county. The democrats of Adair
stood loyalty by this policy and
| know they are true and genu-
inc to it yet, but if they are to
be made a foot ball for the
heavy Democratic end of the
district it seems to me that it is
a little dangerous for party sue
cess. If Barren supports the
Metcalfe man his nomination is
assured. If Adair is defeated
in such a manner is the nominee
assured of election? To my
my mind it would be very doubt
full for resentment is human. l
do not know Mr.. Miller. / take
it that he is a worthy Democrat,
but he ought to see that he is
out of harmony with party pol
icy and not only endangering
his own chances of success, but
the district as well. 1t would
be gratifying to me to see some
action assuring the established
policy to prevail. / am not in
Kentucky political scraps. I'm

Whereas, according to what is un-
derstood to be an implied agreement
and custom among the Democrats of
the 10Th Senate rial District, the De- (
mocracy of Adair County is entitled
to furnish the candidate to be nomi-
mated in the coming primary for the
term beginning Jan. 1, 1920, which
right is conceded to Adair County by

Whereas, the District in the last
gubernatorial election gave a major
ity for Hon. A. o. Stanley of only
222 votes and for Senator Trigg -
votes, and at the November election,
1918, the District was carried for A.
o. Stanley, the Democratic Nominee
for o. S. Senator by only 40 votes,
and if controversy should arise be-
tween the Democrats of the Counties
composing the District as to their re-
spectiye right under the time honored
custom which has been adhered to
for many years, it might injure the
Democratic State Ticket as well as,
the nominee for Senator, and in order
to avoid this apparent danger the
Democratic Executive Committee of
Adair County, after careful consider
alton of the facts herein stated, adopt
ed the following resolution:
Be it resolved by the Executive
Committee of Adair County that the
Democratic Executive Committees of
Adair, Barren and Metcalf Counties,
should meet at Edmonton on the 18th
day Of May, 1919, and the convention
so assembled should determine

custom which has prevailed among
the Democrats of the 19tn Senatorial
District shall be continued,
2. What County is entitled to fur
nish the Democrat candidate in the
coming election.
When these questions have been de
termined the conclusion so reached
shall be published and the respectiv,
candidates shall abide the result, 81
that the nominee can 60 to the peopl
unhampered by any claim of violation

Deer Hunters Getting Busy
(By Associated Press)

Houghton, Mich, Oct. 81
There is a feeling among local
sportsmen that this will be the
last deer hunting season for sew
eral years to come; hence, a
lively demand for licenses is ex-
pected when the sale opens Nev.1.
1t is declared to be the purpose
of legislators to popose at the
next session a closed season on
deer for term of ten years.
Deer are being steadily extended
in the woods of northern Michi-
gan and in late years hunters
themselves have supported laws
that have served to diminish the
number of deer that may be kill
ed in a season. That number is
now one pc rhunter.

Texas Preachers Organize
Against Sunday Funerals

Dallas, Texas, Nov. Sunday
funerals are being discouraged in
several Texas cities. The Dallas
Pastors association recently adopted
resolutions against Sunday funerals,
except where health rules necessitate
burials on that day, and now the
minister's organization in Cleburne
has adopted similar resolutions. Ac-
ton in both cases was taken to avoid
possible strikes of grave diggers and
other associated with funerals. The
clergymen pointed out it was desira-
BILE to permit undertakers, florists,
grave diggers and others in this class
to observe the Sabbath as day of
rest.
