JOHN NJ. TINSLEY MENTIONED
FOR REPRESENTATIV

Coming events cast their shadows
before them. Next year is the year
for the election of county and dis
trict officers and already the po!iti-
cal pots have begun TO boil. News
reaches us from Barbourvile that
Hon. John NJ. Tinsley is being urged
to make the race for Representative
from the Legislative District com
posed of Knox County Some bad
selections have been made in the
past for this Office due to the fact
that it is not a paying one and men
qualified to fill the Office do not care
to go thru an expensive race in the
primary for hte nomination. 1t is one
of the most important offices in the
State. The voters of Knox County
could make no better selection for
their Representative than Mr.. Tins
ley and it Is our opinion that he
should be given the nomination with
out pposition.-Corbin Times.
The Advocate has called on Mr..
Tinsley to get his views on the above
and finds that it is true he has been
solicited to run for Representative.
Mr.. Tinsley thinks it is a little early
as yet to decide. especially since the
remuneration in connection with a
fight for the office makes it a doubt
full honor.
We believe that in this instance the
Republicans should got together and
decide that Mr.. T!uS'cy shall repre-
sent us without opposition. lie will
do so with credit to US ard 10 him
self. How about IL?

BARBOURvILLE MAN
MAY LAND U. S. JOB

That Sawyer Smith, of Barbour
Vile, Ky, will be the next United
States District Attorney for the East
ern District of Kentucky was "tip"
being circulated here yesterday.
Mr.. Smith served as assistant when
Edwin 'P. Morrow, now governor,
was district attorney, with headquar-
ters at Covington. While nothing of
definite nature can be found to in
dicate that the Barbourville man will
land the plum, the Eastern Kentucky
politicians are giving credence to the
report.
Joseph Spears, at present United
States Commissioner, located at Cat
lettsburg, is being backed for United
States Marshal for the Eastern Dis
trict under the Harding administra-
tion. Spears formerly was deputy
United States clerk, with headquar-
ters at Covington, and his many good
friends in that city announced Mon
day that there was movement on
foot to secure his appointment at the
proper time. There are said to be a
number of candidates for the place.
