JUDGE STOUT, A DEMOCRAT"

The Hartford Republican, in its
last issue, in a manner reminiscent
of its windmill-fghting during the
dogdays of last years campaign,
threw familiar fit of frenzied
partisanship over the new Kentucky
general registration law. Its spleen
over what it tries to make its
henchmen think is an effort at dis
chisement is laughable in its
childishness. As for our contem-
porary's slur at Judge Robert l..
Stout, one of Kentuckys ablest and
most tairminded jurists, one would
conclude that il is trying TO out
Lasker LIsker. Apparently, in its
estimation. the most conclusive ar
gument over a question of fact is a
plea in confession and avoidance
This or that may be true. but
your grandfather was the Kaiser's
best friend or "a Democrat--de-
clared the law must stand -, But
what's sauce for the goose is
ssuce for the gander." Four years
ago last fall several thousand DEM
ocrats really were disfranchised in
Ohio County, as the result of a
state law, interpreted by Judge
Slack, REPUBLICAN. Appar-
emily il is all right for the whole
Democratic party Of Ohio County to
be disfranchised by a technically,
but when a few members of both
parties are faced by possible tenn
porary denial of suffrage on ac-
count of illness, which might occur
on election day as well as on regis
tration day, a hrrible howl of "un-
fairness. goes up from the Republic
can ranks.
Perhaps the registration law is
imperfect, but in its essential ele-
ments il is step toward fairer
elections. Its provisions apply
alike TO both parties and no class
If voters is unfairly Disseminated
against. Its only object is the
elimination of corruption from our
politics and such result should be
welcomed by all good citizens. As
Judge Chas. A. Hardin aptly puts
it: Amy organization which puts
itself on record as opposing cleo
toral machinery which insures pure
elections is doomed TO fall"
AS 10 expense, the Republicans
statement is misleading. The reg
istration this year may cost $4,000
but a large percentage of the regis
tration equipment is permanent,
the magnitude of the registering
process will be much less in sue
eeeding years and as a result the
cost will not be third of the Re-
publican's figures.
A little inconvenience and ex-
pense should weigh little against
the ultimate safeguarding OF that
palladium of democracy, the un-
hampered exercise of the right OF
suffrage.
