Promising Young Southcrncr.
M X. BRYAN, having announced that he
lPl would shake from his feet forever
the dust of Nebraska and remove his larcs
and penatcs to Florida, should not have
found it necessary TO make an additional
announcement that no expected to partici-
pate actively in Florida politics. He might
have left that much TO the intelligence OF
the public which knows, after quarter Of
Il century of more or less intimate acGuaint-
ance with the Commoncr. that wherever he
resides there he will he politically engaged.
But to remove any possible vestige OF doubt
and TO disabuse the public of any foar-or
hope--that he had decided TO Quit politics
and live thereafter on the garncred fruits
thereof, he follows his first announcement
with second. To the effect that from this
time forth he. u Floridan of F!oridans. will
be a part and parcel OF Florida politics,
which he expects To help in shaping. Rather
naivcly, too, he intmates that it is not i'm
possible or Improbable that with Florida
as his fulcrum he may move national poll
tics this way that. In tho land made
famous by Ponce de Leon. his political life
renewed. he hopcs-onc may read between
the limes--to start all over again. Once
more reading between his lines, he would
not b. adverse to going to the United States
Senate, via Florida and, successful there
what moro natural than that he should as
pire TO the presidency? lie has done that
thing before. and there is no reason to be
licvc that his second political existence will
vary, except i'll minor details, from his first
one.
MIR. Bryan, having deserted the West and
come South, young man." has all the
vigorous enthusiasm OF the pioneer. He
likes the South generally, and Florida par
ticulary. He says so frankly and boldly,
just like that Ills affection may be dccp
cncd by remembrance that the South fol-
lowed him faithfully in all his campo gna
and was present at every dcbacle at which
lie oic!atcd But that is ancient history
HOW. so why mention it? Ills face is 10
the future as he enters upon new political
career lie finds the South, now his by
adoption. also his in political principles
lie says so himself Taking for granted his
pro-emincncc in Florida politics as It fat
accompN. lie rises without further ado TO
"a discussion OF national issues, such as
enforcement OF prohibition. the establish
mcut OF universal peace through disarmn-
mcut. the reduction Of taxes III a manner
! equitable TO The masses. and in The clim-
I nation OF monopoly and privilege" and in
/ them hc senses the Sonth's oneness with
him. Why. then. he argues--still between
the lines should not the South continue
| to follow him. even to the point of drafting
I him into leadership?
But Il is not impossible that MIR Bryan
! Is taking little 100 much for granted Per
haps his position in Florida politics is not
already prepared for him He can. OF

RENEWED INTEREST IN BREED
ING INDUSTRY IN KENTUCKY

The Importance of the thorough
bred to the security of the United
States is forcibly brought home to us
by some comments of Col. F. s. Arm
strong, Chief of the Remount Service,
,Quartermaster Corps, United States
Army.
Stressing the point that for years
it has been increasingly difficult to
obtain good calvary mounts, Colonel
Armstrong calls attention to the dire
need of them which the A. e. f.
F. would have experienced had the
world war continued a few weeks
longer, and to the relation Of the
breeding industry to the question III
supplying army mounts to the army"
he says, ais close. A large number OF
officers are of the opinion that the
cross between the thoroughbred stall
lion and the grade farm mare will
produce the best type OF cavalry
horse. For several years the thor
oughbred horsemen have done much
to aid in the production Of cavalry
horses; and at the present the varl-
GUS racing commissions and jockey
clubs have signified their intention
of doing greater things"

One story was to the effect that the

place by President Jefferson Davis

been placed in the secret archives OF
the War department.
The duplicate of the seal, in gold.

FARM BUREAU HEAD TO SPEAK
HERE.

One OF the most instructive farm
meetings ever held in the Blue Grass
region will be in the form of a ban
quet to be given by the Bourbon
County Farm Bureau, in this city, to-
morrow evening, at six o'clock.
This entertainment has been ar
ranged in order that the farmers of
Bourbon county might meet Hon. j.
R. Howard, president of the Amer
lean Farm Bureau Federation, with
headquarters at Chicago, who will
address the meeting. President
Howard has never before visited
Kentucky, and speaks, as a rule, at
State meetings only, so that Bour-
bon county is to be particularly ia
vored by the presence of the chief of
the National organization.
Several other speakers of note and
prominence in the Farm Bureau
movement are to be present and will
make short addresses. Among these
are Gen. E. H. Woods, of Pageville,
president of the Kentucky Bureau
Federation; Godfrey Morgan and j.
Is. Crenshaw, secretary and treas
urer, respectively, of the State orga-
nization.
Invitations have been issued to six
hundred farmers of Bourbon and the
adjoining counties of Fayette, Clark,
Montgomery, Scott, Harrison, Wood
ford and Nicholas. Many of the
presidents of the other county Blu
reaus of the State have been invited.
The ladies of the North Middletown
Womans' Club will serve the ban
quet, which will be held in the Ma
. sonic Temple.

PARIS APPLICANTS CONFER
WITH PRESIDENT

Judge H. Clay Howard, of Paris,
who is an applicant for the position
or Minister to Peru, a position he
held some years ago, was a caller
at the White House, in Washington,
wednesday, accompanied by United
States Senator Ernst. They held a
short conference with President
Harding, during which Judge How
ards claims for the position were
presented.
Upon leaving the Executive Man
sion, Senator Ernst told the newspa-
per men that the only subject dis
cussed at the conference was the
matter of appointment. No intima-
ton was given as to what action
the President may take on the rec
ommendatiOn. Judge Howard's
chances for the appointment are
thought, however, to be very good.
