had the hotel under a lease from the
owners, George C. Webb, and 9TH

was $4,000.
The purchase of the prouerty

its hold on the patronage it has 80
long enjoyed, and that it will, In the
future, as it has in the past be Don

Paris would have been, at least tenn

Those Democrats in Kentucky who
believe that Governor James NJ Cox
of Ohio because of his great ability
and superior qualifications should be
the next President of the United
States, have decided to lay his, claim
before our Democratic voters with the
hope that they will join us in securing
delegates to the San Francisco con-
vention, who will favor his nomina
ton.
To secure a delegation from Ken
lucky to San Francisco it is first nee
essary that all Democrats who are for
Cox shall attend the county mass con-
yention to be held in the various cOun-
ty seats at 2 O'Clock in the afternoon
Of Saturday, May 1st, and see that the

day, May 4th, are Cox men.
This is no time for strife within the
Democratic party. The man who un-
dertakes to create the impression that
the cox MOVEMENT is a movement
in the interest of every individual
branch, wing or faction of the Demo
cratic party in Kentucky, is not we'll
wisher for party unity and party sue
cess.

son Camden of Versailles has accept

Cox for p esideI1t|

stratiOn in Ohio. He is broad-gauSel
in every respect and has proved that
he can draw strength from every ele-
ment of the voting population
We endorse Governor Cox because
we know James Nj. Cox to be one hun
dred per cent American, because he
has demonstrated his Americanism and
we know that he is the only kind Of
American that will be selected to the
White House as the successor to Wood
row Wilson.
We know that it takes an extraor-
dinarily good man Of the Democratic
party to even once carry the State of
Ohio which normally is Republican, by
over one hundred thousand majority.
Ana, so we know that when a man
carries Ohio three times as has Cox,
he is what the fellows who go to the
races call safe "hoss."
We want first capable man in the
White House and we want him TO be
a Democrat.
Cox is capable, Cox is honest. Cox
is a Democrat, and he is the best run
ner in our party as he seems to u.s.
That's why we are for Cox at this time
and that's why we want Kentucky %
be for Cox.
The COX HEADQUARTERS will be
open at the Seelbach Hotel at Louis
vile for communication from all who
are interested and believe that this
great man should be nominated and
where all Democrats will be welcome.
