STACKS REVERSAL RECORD

While the Hartford Herald is par
tisan to the core, we are not willing
to believe 1t would consciously mis-
represent a question of. determine
BILE fact relative to a Republican,
hence we call its attention to its
plain duty to correct it's recent state
ment of Judge Slack's reversal re-
cord. Its statement was that Slack
had been reversed in forty-five per
cent of appealed cases passed on.
Judge Stacks own statement, and
we assume the Herald would no soon
err assume that he would made false
statement than we would assume 1t
would, is, that III cases appealed
from his court during his term and
passed on by the Appellate Court
show that 73 cases were affirmed
and SO cases were reversed, making
per centage of reversal of "a per
cent Here is question of record
which the Herald-we concede
through misinformation-h mis-
represented, and in common fairness,
alike to the Judge and to its readers,
it should correct. We thank the Her
aid for raising this QUESTION of rever-
sails But for its raising the ques
ton we should not have found excuse
for compe ring the e5 per ecu; re 'er'
sal reclrl Of judge Birkhead with
the "a per cent record of Judge Slack.
Softly let us counsel, neighbor, there
is nothing in Judge Stacks record as
sailable and you only stand Chance

The bootleggers of this judicial
district are said to be very general
ly for Glover Cary in his race against
Claude Smith for commemorative at
torney. Mr. Smith vigorously prose-
cuted the violators of the liquor
laws, and the good citizens of the
district should, and we believe will,
see that he does not suffer at the
election because of his faithful dis
charge of his duty in protecting the
public from these law violators.

REPUBLICANS; ATTENTION!

We would respectfully call the at
tention of the Republicans of Ohio
county to the following example of
the character of partisan campaign
methods being followed in Davies
county, where that party is in desper-
ate dread of the election of Republic
can county officials.
Ralph Gilbert, Democratic con-
gresham from the Eighth district
throws the following firebrand into
the political camp:
A vote for any Republican Of
ficer from constable up is help
to prolong this Republican mis-
rule, and is thus an Endorsement
of it. 1t is vote of approval
for the betrayal of every cam
paign pledge made by the Nation -
al Republican platform from the
betrayal of Armenia to the re-
duction of taxes. 1t is a vote of
approval of Gov. Morrow's adj
ministration from its abandon
ment of dignity to its pardoning
of notorious criminals. II is an
endorsement of that party. which
has succeeded in making our me-
tropolis the haven of organized
criminals, conspicuous in the
news items only by its infamy.
RALPH GILBERT.
Fellow Republican, take this ex-
cerpt with you to the election and
Just before entering the voting
booth give it a final reading, and
then if you think you can afford to
vote for any Democrats on the coun-
ty ticket, go ahead.
From this same letter Gilbert ad-
dresses to the Democrats of Daviess
county appears these comments,
which are a fragrant insult to every
Republican in Kentucky.
Our Republican governor cannot
leave home to stay overnight with
out getting his pajamas burned off,"
Travellers fear to visit Louisville,
lest the police steal their automo-
biles."
Again, Republicans, when you go
to the polls keep in mind these base
insults offered by responsible Demo-
cratic leaders to your party, and
think then if you can afford to lend
aid and comfort TO the very people
who openly and flagrantly insult you.
The Hartford republican. (Hartford, Ky.) 18??-1926, 1921-10-28

Moonshiners and bootleggers ev-
erywhere are daily growing in bold
ness and audacity and, when observ-
ing that Ohio county was no exception
to this rule, we made an effort to
attract public attention, through a
front page editorial to the necessity
of present action toward abating
this disturbing and dangerous evil,
the Hartford Herald, instead of sup
porting such a necessary movement,
attempted to make chap political
capital out of the matter by insinuat-
ing that the public officials were not
doing their duty. Now that a kill
ing of an innocent man has resulted
from the evil upon which we called
the public to lend its effort toward
we hope the Herald will
awaken to its responsibility as a
newspaper, to stand four square for
country first and party afterward.

MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION

Attorney, greensboro. KY,
Dear Sir: At meeting Of the
Owensboro Ministerial Association
held today II was unanimously voted
that a letter be sent to you; express
Ing our commendation an dapprovai
OF your course of action looking to-
ward the freeing of our city from inn

behind you in this and all similar is

support and approval of all law-abid-
ing and God-fearing citizens.

Republicans who want to land Ken
lucky safely in the Republican col
umn should lend a helping hand to
give the county ticket at least 1900
majority. The county is the prime
unit of political organization, and if
state and national elections are to be
won, the county organization must
be kept strong and vigorous. A Re-
publican vote for a Democratic can
didate for a county office is lending
the enemy club to beat you with
al the next election.
The Hartford republican. (Hartford, Ky.) 18??-1926, 1921-10-28

When the smoke of political bat
tie obscures for the time the better
sides of our natures, it is good to
have a little spark of feeling IL
Eliminating the battle haze, and we
very sincerely express our apprecia-
ton and gratitude for the little COM
pliment our contemporary pays us
this week relative to some softn@ss
of sentiment we INDUCED at the go
ing hence of an humble colore1
friend of ours. The in2iden: is the
more pleasing as it illustrates that
after ali the stress and strein OF po-
litical contests, deep down in our
hearts we are all akin.
The Hartford republican. (Hartford, Ky.) 18??-1926, 1921-10-28

A comparison Judge is not neces-
sarily a man who has no political
convictions, but one who keeps his
court free from possible POLITICAL
bias. The appointment of trustees
of the jury fund has no possible in
fluence in the administration of JUS
tice; the appointment of jury COM
missioners does, for upon juries de-
pend largely the results in the ter
mination of suits and prosecutions.
During Judge Stacks six years in Of
flee he has appointed ~ jury COM
missioners, SO, or exactly one half
of which have been Democrats. Dur
ing Judge irkhead's twelve years in
office he appointed 144 jury com
of which 141, or practi-
cally all of which were Democrats.

Republicans, remember that Mr..
Wilson, Mr.. Cox and Mr.. McAdoo
are still strong for the League of
Nations, and for McAdoodling the
railroads. A vote for a Democratic
candidate for county office is lend
ing encouragement to the Democratic
organization which stands for all you
fought to save the country from last
year. Can you afford to have 1t said
that you have helped revive the
corpse?
The Hartford republican. (Hartford, Ky.) 18??-1926, 1921-10-28

The Courier-Journal said the vot-
ers should decline to remove q judge
who had done his duty. We quoted the
paragraph, and then laid awake half
a night trying to devise some plan to
get that paragraph before the readers
OF the Hartford Herald. Finally we
evolved it. We know how hard it is
for a young man to take dare, 90
we dared the Herald to publish IL,
and il did.

Two years ago, when circuit
court campaign was not of present in
terest, an greensboro Democratic
leader of high rank in local politics
told the writer that Claude Smith had
made the best commemorative at
torney this district had had in many
years. And he told us in what way
he had made the best officer. He
said that when Mr.. Smith was elected
commonwealth attorney Owensborc
was overrun with gambling houses.
That his thorough prosecutions had
closed the open joints entirely, and
that gambling was more nearly sup
pressed in greensboro that at any
time in his memory That the red
light" district, so long the blight
and curse of the city, and source of
revenue through petty fines, to pro-
scouting attorneys, had been broken
up through Mr.. Smiths invoking a
perpetual injunction against both the
inmates and the landlords of such
houses, which finally closed these
tester spots. Habitues had for time
out of mind paid annual tribute in the
way of fines to commemorative at
torneys, but by proceeding against
them, as well as against the owners
OF the houses they occupied, by per-

a lady who hOnOrs me with read
ing this column with some degree of
interest, recently commented, you
certainly selected an appropriate title
for your paragraphs. l never know
what to look for next. From sage
advice to sound philosophy (she is
extravagant with adjectives), and
from almost cruel jibes at intimates

such a variety of subjects?" told

took my pen in hand and turned the
spirit loose. And that is about the
way of it.
Three times in the lives uf the
humblest of us we attract little
attention; when we are born, when
we get married--if we do not live
maids or bachelors-and when we
die. Whea we are born small,
very small, number attend and rejoice
the event; when we get married a
larger number allow us to occupy
the spotlight for a brief interval. Per-
haps more attend upon our marriage
than our birth because they then get

pears. Every one is willing to giant
a favor when assured it will never
again be asked, and then it is an at
tention that none need to withhold be-
cause nobody envies the dead,
A little while ago l sat by car
window in quiet but pleasing admira-
ton of the magnificent picture au-
tumn had painted with the leaves of
the hills for a canvas, and reflected
how Indifferent our friends who live
in these hills are toward this greater
than an Angeles painting. But /

much of my life in the hills Then !

life that gives II interest. II the
stars in the armament, to which we
rarely give more than a. passing
glance, were to blaze forth only once
in a hundred years mankind in their
wild admiration would drag the in
fants from their cradles and the in
valids from their couches to view the
splendid and inspiring spectacle.

whose mother had died when they
were very small and who had lived
