GARNET FOR GOVERNOR.

James Garnett is being boosted
for the Democratic nomination
for Governor of Kentucky by a
number of staunch friends and,
while not personally acquainted
with the gentlemen, from his
reputation as an able man he will
doubtless make a strong candi-
date.
Mr.. Garnett has had some ex-
perience in affairs of the State
and has, perhaps, the e needed
qualifications to make an able
official and will, doubtless, serve
the people of Kentucky in such a
way as to honor the position and
make way for better government
in our State, a thing most desir-
able. One of the qualifications
needed, however. is a desire to
serve the State of Kentucky. eff

useless laws, and enforce the good
laws now on the Statute books

hope the Democrats will find
such a man for the next Guber-

Al the Brink.

There comes a time in the life
of every man when he pauses
upon the brink.
He is face to face with the
crucial moment of his career,
when another step forward mayi
mean riches, yet wealth that is,
stained by the odium of deliber-
ate and intentional wrong. ,
If he takes the forward step
his fate is sealed. He may re-
pent of his act and make restitu-
tion, but the memory cannot be
eradicated from the minds of his
generation. 1
If he retraces his steps and
sets different course he may
not achieve the riches that are
all but within his grasp. But he
retains honor, which wealth can
not buy; respect, which integrity
alone will command; and con-
tentment, which is the heritage
of clear conscience.
The friend of today whom you
admire and welcome to your
home did not respond to the
stained Establishments of a gilt
tering future. He chose the
path of honor. &
The man whom you shun, the
one to whom your door is ever
closed, took the forward step.

cleanse his soul, but an eternity
cannot clear his name.

Grabbing the News.

ONE of the peculiar things in the
Idaho political situation today is the
almost universal attack being made
upon NJ Alexander. Reams Of copy
and an endless chain of words have i
common objective; an assault upon Mr..
Alexander, his record as a governor
of Idaho and the things he is saying to
gain that position again.
One forgets that there are other
Democratic candidates They are
completely submerged by the Alex
ander personality, merely a group of
names named to fill vacancies on a
state ticket. Republicans do not mince
matters when Alexander is under dis
cussion. And, if anything, Progress
i've spokesman use just a little more
vitriolization, a little more of the
naked truth.
No politician ever was more care
less with public utterances than is
Alexander. He seems to have an utter
contempt for fact and justifies any as
sertions by the end to be gained. Cor
rections Haunted before his disturb the
Democratic standardbearer not one
bis Coolly he goes ahead, springs
something new and complacently waits
for the new attack to begin, knowing
that publicity at least will crown his
efforts. Mr.. Alexander is appar-
emily operating on the hypothesis that
adverse publicity is better than none
and that the voting public likes bun
combe.
Careful observers are convinced that
in Canyon county the fight is between
[. c. Moore and Samuels. Alexan-
der is almost certain to run in third
place and a poor third at that. Farm
ers are almost solidly for Samuels at
tracted, we presume, by his morator-
ium proposal which even Mr.. Samuels
knows full well he can never achieve
IN Idaho. In justice it must be said
that Mn Samuels is conducting a dig.
nitied campaign, one that stands as a
beacon light of clean politics when
contrasted with the line Of stuff Mr.
Alexander peddles.
But Alexander gets the publicity
