POLITICS BREAKS UP
TEACHERS MEETING

The regular neting of the Madison
County Teachers Association in the
court house Saturday was cut short
by a political address by Hon. Will
liam Wallace for the Republicans.
There were no arrangement made for
the next meeting Of teachers owing to
the abrupt termination of the session.
While the court room was filled with
instructors, many of whom had come
for miles, there was disappointment
upon the part of the politicians, if
they expected to hold this crowd, for
within three minutes after the an
nouncement had been made that the
room had to be given over to the
campaign crowd, Superintendent B.
F. Edwards suggested that the mat
ters in the interest of education be
passed and politics admitted, and
there was a clearing of the room, less
than half dozen of those in attend
ance remaining to hear the orator of
the day. There was much unfavor-
able comment by the teachers regard
ing the closing of the meeting in the
midst of the teachers program. The
regular procedure had been followed
in securing the room for the teachers
where they have been holding their
monthly meetings regularly. How
ever, politics took precedence over
education, and the political meeting
was allowed to go on.

CLOSING ADDRESSES
IN LOCAL CAMPAIGN

The Democratic campaign was clos
ed in Madison county Monday after
nooon by addresses by ex-President
w. G. Frost, of Berea, and Judge w.
r. Shackelford. An immense crowd
gathered in the lower court room be-
fore the hour for speaking, and list
ened with enthusiasm to every word
Both addresses were masterful. Hon.
w. B. Smith, the nestor of Democra-
cy, said few words, before the other
speakers arrived
On Saturday night, Col. r. C. Old
ham came over from Winchester and
spoke before a big audience in his
old home town. He made a brilliant
and unanswerable argument for
Democracy.
The final speech for the Republi-
cans was made Saturday afternoon
by Hon. William Wallace, formerly
Of Richmond, who is now practicing
law in Frankfort. Mr.. Wallace is
very popular local young man, and
made an address which appeared to
please the Republicans who heard him.
1t is probable that there has been
more speaking in the recent campaign
than in many years in Madison coun-
ty. Big crowds have been the rule
everywhere and a record sized vote
IS expected Tuesday.
