Kennedy's Democratic Record
IN PULASKI COUNTY

Everyone should be made acquaint-
ed with the conduct of Mr.. H. C. Ken
nedy after his defeat six years ago
in the race for Circuit Judge He went
to Monticello after the primary, and
had Cress to meet him at the home
of Kennedy's brother, John, and
there they conferred one whole Sun
day afternoon, and planned to defeat
Judge Bethurum. They tried to car
ny out the plan, but failed, and the
whole story of his deception and
treachery will be fully exposed dur
ing the coming campaign for Circuit
Judge. The same Kennedy following
closely on the heels of his bolt in 1915
bolted and made speeches for the
Democratic ticket in Pulaski county,
in the year 1917. He will not attempt
to deny this, as this is one time he
openly fought a Republican ticket.
In order that the minds of the voters
may be refreshed on what he did that
year, an editorial that was published
in the Somerset Journal, the Demo-
cratic organ of Pulaski county, Sept
ember %, 1917, is herewith copied.
1t is as follows:
"The speaking at the court house
last Saturday in behalf of the DEM
Ocratic ticket by Judge Kennedy
............ land was well attended.
In fact the Court house was over
flowing, numbers leaving because
they could not secure seats. The
speed hes of these gentlemen were
to the point, sledge hammer blows
were struck, a spade was called a
spade, no one being left in the dark
as to their attitude toward the
Democratic ticket"
After speaking all over Pulaski
county that year for the Democratic
ticket, this same Kennedy went to
Sloan's Valley, some Is miles south
of Somerset, on the day of the Nov
ember election of that year, and acted
as precinct worker for the Democrat
ic ticket. He was seen there by DIR.
Thomas Ralston and Mr.. r. H. Hal
comb, of Burnside, KY, who tell the
story of his conduct in the following
statement:
"The undersigned state that they
were on the election grounds at

SlOan's Valley precinct, Pulaski,
county, at the general November
election. 1917, at which general
election the county officials were
elected, and also the magistrates.
"They further state that H. C.
Kennedy was present at the polls
at said precinct in said election,
was there as a precinct worker for
the straight Democratic ticket,
and worked for said ticket, and
fought the Republicans till noon on
said election day.
(Signed)
''Dr. Thomas RalstOn,
''R. HI. HalcOmb."
In letter written by the said Ken
nedy to prominent Republican in
Rockcastle county, Sept. 18th, 1920,
he admitted that he bolted the Pu-
laski county Republican ticket in
1917, in the following language:
"What l did i'm Pulaski county in
some of the local races in 1917, is
no secret. When go on the stump
there will be no denial"
This same Kennedy on October
22nd, 1917, signed an article, and had
copies of it published and scattered
throughout Pulaski county appealing
to the Republicans of the county to
follow him into the Democratic par
ty, and vote the straight Democratic
ticket that year. A copy of this cir
cular is in existence. 1t is too long
to copy in full, but a portion of it is
here copied for the information, Of
the voters. 1t is as follows:
In our opinion there Is but one
remedy for Pulaski county, and
that is for a while TO turn its af-
fairs over TO the Democrats. They
have nominated some clean, hon
est, capable men for the county Of
fees, and their election would mean
the redemption of Pulaski county"
The voters responded to this ap-
peal, but not to Kennedy's liking.
They elected the straight Republican
ticket from top to bottom, the ma
jorities ranging anywhere from 239
to 1884, practically all the candidates
that he fought winning by something
like thousand majority each.

DDS q campaigning.

VhH " 'omBo"'th'ts
Judge Bethurum will not stOop so
low as to enter into mud singing and
dirty campaign, but will, as has been
his policy all the time, continue his
campaign ON the highest plane, giving
no attention to false vharges. His pol
icy is to tell the people why he should
be honored at this time with the Re
publican nomination for Circuit Judge
and unless some one else can give bet
ter reasons, Republicans should cast
their vote for Bethurum and all other
candidates who have been true to their
party and can show the best reason
why they should have the office.

EOR many years the Standard Oil
Il Company New Jersey has main
tanned special division of its staff
whose activities are devoted en-
tirely to the development of new
products and the constant improve
ment of those already being manu-
factmed. "A large share of the
work of this Development Depart
ment centers around the produc-.
ton and quality of STANDARD"
Motor Gasoline.
AS a result of continuous research
work and exhaustive, practical road
tests conducted by this Department,
we are able to announce the pro-
duction of a decidedly improved
quality of gasoline.
The 1Standard" Motor Gasoline
which is now obtainable at every

line he buys. In fact, he usually
doesn't care about the factors. He
is interested, first, last and always,
in the quality as it is delivered to
him. So, without a wealth of tech
nical information, the motorist
measures gasoline quality by one,
and what is after all the final, de-
Gliding test, namely-its behavior
in his motor.
Gasoline must be good not in one
respect but in all respects. To make
it seem better, even to an expert,
without really being better, is not
an improvement. Our present prod
uct is really better from every
standpoint-so much so that you
will quickly notice the difference.
1t has never been hepractice of this
company to claim economies and
technical merits for its products
which the average ,motorist could
not prove for himself. Give 'sStand-
ard" Motor Gasoline trial. This is
all we ask you to do. We are con-
fident that, purely on the basis ofits
performance and economy, you will
use it regularly. Try it today.

OUTING DAY
ENDS SAFETY WEEK
Work Done During Campaign
Considered Highly Successful
BY National Safety Officers

The last day of Safety Week has
arrived with only four accidents re-
ported in Annapolis during the week
The record OF No-Accident Week
throughout the State is regarded by
the local campaign committees and
the National Safety Organization Off
GERS, who have been watching the re-
suits closely, as remarkable. and as
proof of the splendid effectiveness OF
the policy of keeping constantly in
the public mind the slogan Don't Get
Hurt
A general survey OF the campaign
results was made at a meeting OF the
No-Accident Week Committee yester-
day at the Merchants and Manufac-
turers' Association rooms in Balti-
more 1t was the unanimous opinion
of the members that the campaign
has more than measured up to expec-
tations. both in the matters of acci
dent-prevention results and the
amount of general interest aroused
There was informal discussion at the
meeting of the proposal that per-
manent organization be created to
constantly promote safety throughout
the State. Action on the matter was
postponed until further meeting TO
be called in about two weeks's time.
Appointment of large numbers OF citi-
zens as deputy traffic officers TO aid
the police in seeing that traffic laws
are obeyed is one of several means
proposed.
Today is Safe-Outing Day. Its title
carries the full suggestion of the
safety lessons it is intended to i'm
press, and in view of the number of
drowning accidents reported In the
Monday papers as the result of week
ends on the water. it is wise choice
for Saturday.
Don't spoil the picnic by losing one
of the party overheard is good slo-
gan for the weekend.
Tomorrow is set down in the pro-
gram as Thanksgiving Day"

caught in a pound-fishing net off
Thomas Point at the mouth of
West river by John Hallock and
his nephew. Bernard Hallock.
The two fishermen went to
their nets early this morning, and
noticing the unusual weight,
thought they had made an un-l
usual catch over night. II soon
developed, however. that the
great weight was caused by the
presence of the shark, which had
become entangled in the meshes
and was making big fuss. 1t
was with much difficulty that
Hallock and his nephew could
haul the net. and this was ac-
complished only after the big
finny specie had been killed by
blows dealt over its head.
Then they hauled the fish into
their motorboat and brought it to
Annapolis and placed it on exhi-
bition for time at the city dock.
The fishermen plan to cut the
monster into bits for use as crab
bait. The shark was of what is
