the mature who fix social custom

upon whom these restrictions press
most heavily. Every father is bent
on saving his sons from the vices
which he most enjoys, and every
mother seeks carefully to guard
her daughter from the indiscretions
which made her own youth roman

MORROW TO OPEN
INDIANA FIGHT

Governor Morrow will open the Re-
publican campaign in Indiana on Con-
stitution Day, next Friday. Septem-
Der H. with an address at a great
G. o. P. meeting at indianapolis.
An urgent Invitation was received
by Governor Morrow from the Indiana
campaign committee several days ago
but the governor withheld his reply
until learning from the Kentucky
committee that his services would not
be required at home on that day.
The governor will go to Indianapo-
lis Thursday night and will return to
Louisville after the speaking Friday
in time to catch the morning train
Saturday for Greenville, where he is
billed to speak Saturday afternoon
His speaking appointment calls for a
speech at Greenville in the afternoon
and at Central City that night, re-
turning to Louisville Sunday
He will accompany the Kentucky
delegation on the pilgrimage to Sem
ator Harding's home, leaving Louis
vile Sunday night at 1880 O'clock
and returning early Tuesday morning
Plans announced by Chairman Scar
cy call for an Introductory speech by
the governor, who will present mem
bers of the Kentucky delegation to
Senator and Mrs. Harding after the
speaking.
The governor will be much in de-
mand as campaign orator this fall,
but if plans Of the national committee
are adhered to his speeches will be
confined almost exclusively to Ken
lucky, Indiana and ohio.

HERRICK-PINCHOT
IN HARDING CAMP
(The Pathfinder) .

A new knight in the Republican
ranks is Myron T. Herrick, who was
ambassador to France during the
early part of the war. Just returned
from Europe, Mr.. Herrick declared
that President Wilson is alone re-
sponsible for the present chaos there
He asserted that if the men who sat
at the peace table with him had
known that he did not represent the
convictions of the congress and people
of the United States there would have
been no delay in establishing peace
Because he went to Europe to insist
that his league of nations program be
included in the war settlement" said
Mr.. Herrick, "a year was wasted at a
vital time. He added that European
statesmen persistently inquired why
the reservations adopted by the sen
ate were not submitted at the peace
table as the senators had demanded;
they would then have been accepted
by the peace council, he said.
Another Republican to become an
active campaigner is Lieut.. Col. Theo-
dore Roosevelt, son of the former
president. Speaking at Bangor, Me-,
Mr.. Roosevelt took a fling at the
Democratic candidate. I'm Mr., Cox,
he said, "the Democrats have chosen
a man whose shifty hypocrisy
thoroughly entities him to be the
leader of the party whose admins
tration has darkened the pages OF
our history during the last eight
years" Referring to Coxs criticism
of the Republican platform for not
citing the glorious part America
played in the war. Mr.. Roosevelt
said: Does he not know that it is
not good taste to praise your own
achievements, and it was the Repub-
lican party that fought the war?
There was not a male representative
of the close official family of the
Democratic administration who, to
the best of my knowledge, was, dur
ing the war, within the range of a
gun fired by the enemy"
A new recruit in the Harding camp
, is Clifford Pinchot, who was 50
thoroughly Bull-Moose that he re-
fused to come back to the old party
even after the return of Roosevelt.
After visiting Senator Harding he
said that they had differed in the past
and had said some hard things OF
each other, but he added: 1--WE are to-
gether now and l am for him. The
great task of the moment is to put
out of office the men who have de-
bauched and despolled the people and
the government of the United States.
/ want to help get this country out of
the control of the Southern reaction
aries by whom we have been ruled for
eight years.

is WILSON ALL-WISE?
FOREVER INFALLIBLE

Has the world so changed that the
policies of Woodrow Wilson, his
n-of-the-world" idea as en-
bodied in his League of Nations, are
the only ones acceptable today?
Is Woodrow Wilson all-wise? Is
he, and he alone, able to utter the
words, devise the plan, outline the
doctrine that will protect America
and save the world? Has he even
thought of protecting America?
These are a few questions in the
minds of thinking Americans today.
These thinking Americans have not
discarded the wisdom of Washington
and Monroe, and Lincoln, and all of
our illustrious leaders Of the past,
whose wisdom guided this great coun-
try through many a period Of world
tumult. They are wondering if this
wisdom isn't sadly needed today.
Think of this; If Washington, and
Adams. and Jefferson, and Madison,
and Monroe. and Webster, and Lin
coin and Jackson were here today to
express themselves upon wilson's
League Of Nations, their verdict
would be:
1--WE will have none of it."
Let us quote briefly from the
opinions of some of these great Am
orleans, expressed during the great
national crises of their day:
George Washington: We are an
Independent nation, and act for our
selves. We will not be dictated to
by the politics of any nation under
heaven.
Abraham Lincoln: We have for
borne from taking part in any contro-
versy between foreign states and be-
tween parties or factions in such
states. We have left to every ma
ton the exclusive conduct and man
agement of its own affairs.
Andrew Jackson: A strict adher-
ence 10 this policy (to make no en-
tangling alliances) has kept us aloof
from the perplexing question that now
agitate the European world.
Thomas Jefferson:' We have a
perfect horror at everything like con-
Meeting ourselves with the politics of
Europe.
These are but brief quotations.
History tells the true story of the
wise judgment of these men, who
helped preserve this great nation.
Shall we repudiate them, or shall
we repudiate Wilson?

COMMERCIAL NITROGEN TESTS

In the 1919 report of the Kentucky
Experiment Station the subject OF
commercial nitrogen tests is dis
cussed. The report says that the
question is often asked whether
commercial nitrogen can be used pro-
fitably on wheat and whether it
should be applied in the fall or in
the spring, Experiments have been
conducted for a number of years de-
signed to answer this question. The
reports state that the experiments
have so far shown no gain in yield
from the use of commercial nitrogen
applied in the fall, Profitable gains
have been made from the use of nitro
gen as a top dressing on wheat
where wheat follows corn. This APP
plication should be made, in the
spring as soon as growth begins and
should be at the rate of approximate
ly 100 to 200 pounds of nitrate of So
da or its equivalent, depending upon
the character of the soil and the con-
dition of the wheat.
