IN POLICE CIRCLES

There are number of 'leftovers"
in the way Of minor cases which may
be heard in city court Friday night.
There are no new ones, the past week
having been unusually quiet in police
circles. Unless there is decision to
try the old ones, it is very probable
there will be no court Friday. Last
week there were no cases booked un-

WILL YOU TELEPHONE THE VOTEIN
YOUR PRECINCT TO THE DAILY REGIST

The most complete election
news service ever received in
Richmond will be furnished the
Daily Register election night by
the Associated Press.
The news will be telephoned in
to this office each hour from six
o'clock at night until three o'clock
the next morning. A special
phone circuit is being cut into the
Office now by local Manager Har-
ris.
For the first time in its history
the Associated Press will cover
every county in Kentucky and the
United States by phone report.
The Daily Register must furnish
the vote in each of Madison coun-
tvs 80 precincts to the Associated
Press, SO that tabulations may be
made of the entire vote and ma
jorities in Kentucky as quickly as
possible. In order that this may
be rushde the Daily Register IS
calling for volunteers in each
precinct to phone in the result of
the vote for presidential electors
and for congressman as quickly
as the vote is counted in each pre-
cinct.
The Daily Register will appre-
ciate if greatly and it will be con-
ferring a real favor if some one
in each precinct will wait at the
polls in each precinct until the
vote is counted, then rush to the
telephone and phone 90, the Daily
Register office at Richmond. The
time is so short that the Daily
Register will not be able to per-
sonally solicit some one to do this
work, but is calling for vclun
teers. Won't some one in each
precinct make it a point to see
that the exact vote-not ma lori
ties-is phoncd to this Office as
soon as the counting is complete
in his precinct? If friends who
will do this will phone the office
or write in their name before

'VziING TO TRADE OF

The fac that all the Repub'iesa
Ire is now being centered en
Senator Beckham is clear preof
that the party ha, given up al
hope of carrying the state fer

Republicans are willing to trade
off the Glance of electing Harding
if they can get Ernst across IN
this state.
The Importance of re-elcctins
Senatr Beckham was stressed by
Governor Cox in his speech at
Ashland this week 1t would be
a futile thing to elect Governor
Cox president and then have the
senate filled with men who would
not support his policies. Senator
Beckham favors the League Of
Nations and the other progressive
policies advocated by the govern
or. Richard P. Ernst wants to
scrap the league, as he said at
Munfordville, the United States
does not get one dollar or feet
of ground out of it. Governor
Cox will need men of Senator
Beckharn's stamp to redeem the
Democratic platform pledges.
The anonymous distribution Of
scratched sample ballots is, there
fore las much directed against
the success of Governor Cox after
he becomes president as against
the candidacy of Senatr J. c. w.
Beckham. Anything that is done
to injure the possibilities of Gov
ernor Cox's administration differs
little from vote against Govern
