ing In Fulton.

rultOu, n.y., May lo.-DduhtTs VI
Groups One and Two, comprising
practically every financial institu-
tion in the southwestern counties Of
the State, unanimously adopted reso-
lutions Wednesday indorsing the
Dark Tobacco Growers Co-opera-
tive Association and pledging not
only substantial financial support
but active helpfulness in getting
the dark tobacco growers to Join
the association. This action was
taken following an address by Judge
Robert w. Bingham.
Growers Of 1851 acres of dark
tobacco in Christian County signed
over their crops to the associations
while the banks were arranging for
financial support and success of the
association. This leaves only 3,540
acres in Christian County to be can
vassed.
The resolutions follow:
AuOptcu yOuI
committee appointed on resolutions
desires to report as follows: First,
we have heard with pleasure and
profit Judge Robert w. Bingham's
address on cooperative marketing
of tobacco for the dark tobacco dis
trict and groups one and two of
the Kentucky Bankers Association
very heartily approve said plan,
and 1t is resolved by this associa-
tion that the members hereof rec
ommend the plan to the growers of
dark tobacco and that this associa-
tion pledge its active cooperation
and financial support to the extent
Of its ability.
Whereas the American Bankers
Association, through its committee
of public education, is striving to
take the bank to the people and
the people to the bank we indorse
the movement and pledge co-opera-
ton.
I'VE heartily approve of the eff
forts of the Kentucky Livestock I'm
provement Association and it's eff
forts should have our Endorsement.
ut is the sense of this associa-
tiop that an expression of apprecia-
tion for the fine addresses and in
terest manifested by men outside
the association who have contribut-
ed so much to the success of this
meeting be made and especially do
we desire to thank Messrs. George
z. Allen, James Speed, Judge Rob-
ert w. Bingham, T. l.. Young and
w. w. Peavyhouse, Deputy Banking
Commissioner.
"These two groups further desire
to go on record favoring better
schools, the construction of gooo
roads, more advanced agriculture
and all good movements looking to
the upbuilding of Kentucky.
sit is with sense of pride that
we point to the, strong condition of
our banks. They have stood the
strain of defation and depression
which has cast a shadow upon the
business world and we feel more
hopeful of the immediate outlook
for our farming interests.
I'VE indorse the action of our
in holding Joint meet
ing of groups one and two and in
choosing Fulton as the place of (
meeting. and we extend the thanks
to the bankers and citizens of Full
and appreciation of the association
for their splendid hospitality.

ST CANDIDATES IN
COIorless Primary Campaign
Comes to a Close Soon.

LABOR VOTE is REAL FEATURE
MeNeaI, Knapp and Stubs in
Struggle for Support.
Seven Republicans, 8 Demo-
Gratis Out for Governor.
LABOR VOTE is REAL FEATURE
BY A. L. sHULTz.

Candidates will next week finish
their vote hunting in the strangest and
most coIorless primary campaign the
state has ever known. There are all
sorts of frantic claims at the head
quarters Yet in spite of the dope
sheets the candidates are worried.
It is the big, quet, non-commltta1
vote that is worrying everyone. Peo-
pie who usually talk about pubic Is
sues and fight the battles of the grand
old party in every campaign have been
just as frank and candid this year as
in Former seasons. But Mr. Average
Business Man and old Bill snort out
/ nthe country haven't said great
deal. They have shown just as much
concern and emotion as tho a half a
dozen fliYvers had driven past their
house on a summer evening
Most of the interest, OF course, VIII
center in the governorship. Seven Re-
publicans and three Democrats give
the gubernatorial class the biggest list
Of Entrants since the primary law was
passed.
The big farmer vote and the course
of organized labor are matters Whlcn
produce most conversation. Lambert
son in the Republican contest ana
Davis, a Democrat, are the Two art
farmers in the running Farmer or
ganizations are demanding the next
governor The big puzzle in ranks OF
party workers is the result in Novem-
Der if one party dominates FARMER
and the other party fails The SIT
uation has occasioned a real fear in
view of the light manner in which the
voter seemingly carries his party re-
sponsibility this year
Labor Vote a Feature.
In the labor ranks it looks lige Nc
Neal or Knapp for the Endorsement
particularly in the burr eyed crowd
which wants raw meat and scuttle
of blood They have preached the
gospel which appeals most to this class
of voters.
On the other hand it might be Wen
to keep a weather eye on Stubbs when
the labor vote goes to the polls VIII
liam Allen Whites controversy with
Governor Allen may be directed to
the benefit of the former governor
Then, too. Joe Doliey has assured Ia
Dor that the selection of Stubbs would
be almost equal to the election of
favorite brother-in-law.
Stubbs has gained in the labor COM
rnunities lately. But a big conserva-
tive following is beginning to stop,
Ioolx@and listen. They are checking
up on the early reports that Stubbs
had ceased riding wild horses Out
in the farmer districts the Stubs gain
in labor centers is seemingly being
offset by a material turn of the rural
vote to Lambertson.
Topeka's big list of candidates has
nearly capsized the Doat. Early in
the campaign it looked as tho the old
home town would modestly ask for
the nomination of D. o. McCray for
secretary of state and quit. 1t looks
very much as tho McCray should have
the nomination on ice. Yet a dozen

other Topeka aspirants for congress
sionaI and state jobs hasn't aided any
of the home town boys.
Out in the state there is quite a
tendency to look for a nice soft place
to wallop Topeka McCray. who was
out far ahead of the hounds, may be
safe-altho a little extra help prob
ably won't do HIM any harm. Yet the
other candidates with Topeka after
their names may have much to worry
about.
Porter-Hopkins Fight.
State interest in the campaign has
been almost as keen in the Porter
Hopkins fight for supreme court JUS
t1ce as in the governorship. Hopkins
has gathered a world of free advertis-
ing by starting things. For three ana
half years, tho, he has had more
newspaper space than any man in the
state house except Governor Allen.
Justice Porter. tho, has merely been
one of the strong members of the
bench and the more he worked the
less newspaper space he received.
That's the way of a court that is
merely keeping the law on straight. E
Returns from an inspection of the
Hopkins records have been rather gen.
orally received in the last few weeks,
tho. The fact that Hopkins sent sc, 900
campaign circulars to the state print
ing plant to be printed at taxpayers
expense hasn't aided his cause greatly
called by William Allen White for
taking an endorsement from the EN-
poria editor who had previously an
nounced he was for Justice Porter.
The attorney generals fight with a
half dozen entrants has a lot of un-
certainty. In spite of the fact that
Topeka has two candidates for the
place. most of the shrewd dopesters
figure the final fight will be between
Tom d. Smith of Hiawatha and
Charles CsrffFith nF
sent assistant attorney general. Smith
ran four years ago and displayed a
lot of ability in landing votes
Fred Seaman of Topeka scrambled
who was formerly Miss Fooster's as
sistant, entered the race in the last
hour. Jesse w. Miley of Crawford
county, president of the State Teach
ers' association, has a strong organ
ization behind him. Unless a few
M1ley-Wooster battle with the anti
fag and no powder puff brigade hold
ing the cross roads for Miss Wooster.
For Insurance Job.
The fight for superintendent of in
surance is going into the finals in a
cloud of dust. 1t looks as tho all of
the candidates are claiming it is a
race between themselves and Emmett
d. George. In his campaign George
has admitted he is not a technical in
suranoe man. He is a policy owner,
he declares, and will apply practical
business ideas instead of scientific
theories in the office. AS there are
more pohcyholders than men who
claim to be insurance experts, Georges
candidacy is likely to have a decided
following.
Unless some of the candidates break
legs or suffer strokes of apoplexy,
everyone will be out chasing the fes-
tive voters next week. There are 81
candidates for state office in the Re-
publican, Democrat and Socialist pri-
maries- The fellows on Kansas ave-
nue. and in the state house have been
doing a lot of high powered worrying
and figuring lately. Maybe they are
all wrong.
Maybe your own dope is best after
all. Fact is this looks like the best
sort of a year for the destruction of
primary prophets.
