In Kentucky the democrats are
hopeful Of the oftsetting influence
Of several factors which have come
into the picture late in the cam
paign. Senator Barley, an out.
standing dry leader, has returned to
the state after = long absence and

for Smith. Another democrat. for

A year ago Camden quit the state
ticlset on the race track issue, and
help elect republican governor.
The Tennessee democrats rest
much reliance on Senator Mcclellan.

and a pepulaS figure in the state. He
is candidate for reelection and il
campaigning for Smith. Other con-
sticuous members of the Smith or
ganization. include Representatives
Hull and Byrns, who are among the
ranking democratic members of the
house. Hull Is former democratic
national chairman and received the
support of his state at Houston for
the presidency.
There is no general agreement as
to the issues involved in these states.
But both in Tennessee and KEN
lucky the democrats have devoted
large part of their campaigning to
a denial that Smiths election would
give the Catholic church undue in
fluence at Washington.
In the coal country of eastern
Kentucky they have blamed the re-
publican administration for the lake
cargo coal decision. which they de-
scribe as an injustice to Kentucky
miners and mine workers.. Here
and . in the neighboring state Of
West Virginia. the republicans have
replied that sole responsibility for
this decision rests with the non-po-
litical interstate commerce commits

Neither Kentucky nor Tennessee

Hoover campaigners in both states
have been charging, and the demo-
Gratis denying. that Governor Smith
favors material liberalization Of
the immigration laws. In both states
prohibition is argued warmly and
both sides are asking the support

part in its deliberations or conclu-

own words over his own signature,
from the closing paragraph Of his
statement announcing the wheat
price: "Mr. Hoover, at his express
wish, has taken no part in the de.
alterations Of the committee on
whose recommendation I determine
the Governments fair price, nor has
he in any way intimated an opinion
regarding that price," Here il the
statement Of DR.. Harry A. Garfield,
Chairman, by President Wilson'S ap-
pointment, Of the Committee which
recommended the wheat price to the
President. "Mr. Hoover had abso-
lutely no part in this matter other
than to urge upon President Wilson
that some action be taken to protect
the American Farmer"
We are taking the liberty Of en-
closing herewith two pamphlets:
HERBERT HOOVER AND AGRI-
CULTURE" from q speech delivered
by Hon. Frederic M. Sackett Of Ken
lucky, in the United States Senate
on April 90, 1928. and "HERBERT
HOOVER'S RECORD AS A
FRIEND OF THE AMERICAN
FARMER" by Mr.. j. r. Howard,
former President of the American
Farm Bureau Federation. Please
read the pamphlets at your early
leisure and if you can comment edi-
torially upon the fact that Mr.. Hoov-
er took no part in setting the price
of wheat in 1917, you will do con-
siderable towards combating this
propaganda.
Newspaper men are interested in
fair play, and in seeing to it that
political campaigns are fought upon
the issues, not upon misstatements
of fact.
We sincerely hope that the cam
paign in North Dakota this fall will
be fought in the open and our vot-
ers given every opportunity to be-
come acquainted with the real is
sues and the records Of the candi-
dates. H. F. HORNER.

ALCOHOL AFFECTS BUSINESS
To the Editor of The Tribune:
DR.. Siegfried Weiss, of Vienna, in
his recent address before the
Worlds Dairy Congress in London,
told the dairymen that they could
not have a normal market for their
product until there was a reduction
of the alcoholic drinks. Ee empha-
sized that "by example and good
counsel, all educational and moral
forces must wage war against the
narcotic effect Of alcoholic liquor,
and against the temptation which
alcoholic drinking habits and con-
VITALITY exercise"
Since drunkenness, which is the
effect Of the narcotic drug alcohol,
is abnormal and makes the drunkard
subnormal, no business can reach it's
normal stage while drunkenness
prevails among its potential GUS
toners.

Editor, Bismarck Tribune:
Supporters of Smith are spreading
propaganda throughout tie state
and particularly among our farmers
to the effect that Herbert Hoover
was responsible for fixing the price
of wheat in 1917 at $500 per BUSH
Ell. This propaganda is absolutely
false. Mr.. Hoover had nothing to
do with determining the price Of
wheat. A brief review of the facts
will prove this contention.
In the summer Of 1917 the allied
Governments had consolidated their
buying agencies and through this
buying power over the surplus would
control the price Of American wheat
the moment the exports of the new
crop would begin. They contended
that they could buy sufficien. wheat
in the Argentines and in Australia
at prices from SIPS to $3.50 per
bushel. To protect the American
farmers from this situation Presi-
dent Woodrow Wilson appointed a
