Over the Vital Question of Reciprocity MANY SECTIONS ARE STIRRED But All Indications Point to the National Pact Be ing Adopted KKVIVATj OF CONFIDENCE Toronto Ont Aug 26Witht- he election which will decide the fate of the reciprocity agreement still more than three weeks off the fight In this great Industrial and agricultural province of Canada has reached a point where practically everthlng else has been neglected In the heat of the political battle R L Borden leader of the opposi tion has completed his Ontario tour having delivered more than thirty speeches In constituencies considered doubtful and will devote the rest of his time to Quebec and the maritime provinces where his own seat in Halifax Is thought- to be In danger Premier Laurler will return to Ontario next week to speak In sev era rural constituencies It Is the farmers vote both sides believe Is likely to decide the fate of reciprocity Every voter In a farm Ing community Is considered whereas In the city nobody seems to care whether or not the voter exercises his franchise This Is explained by the fact that ev city In Canada except King and Ottawa the seat of Government and the home of thousands of civil employes rives an over whelming Tory majority An unusual feature of tho cam palgn Is Clifford Sifton former Min Inter of the Interior In the Laurler Government has come out against reciprocity Mr Slfton Is a life long Liberal and was the Liberal member for Brandon In the House of Commons just dissolved but has taken the stump against the Issue favored by his party Itcvival of Confidence Montreal Aug 2GNow that Sir Wilfrid Laurler has addressed half a dozen meetings In his native province of Quebec which has given him his working majority In Parliament since 1S9C there Is a distinct of confidence In the Liberal ranks over the outcome of reciprocity Everywhere the crowds which greeted the Premier have been large the applause has been generous and on each occasion Sir Wilfrid has demonstrated anew that he Is still the Idol of the FrenchCanadians That the danger to Laurlers pres tige was great Is admitted by his followers In 1 lOS Henri Bonnie sa another victorious FrenchCann illan typo while not distinctly friendly to Sir Wilfrid was not openly antagonistic In the present campaign Bourassa has attacked Laurler and the Llberaal party vigorously Bournssa will not take reciproci ty seriously He holds that If Canada waited she would have obtained from the Democratic Congress practically all that the pact gives without making any return Ho asserts that reciprocity Is a cloud if the Government seeking to tilde the corruption and graft which i is he says have made him ashamed of tho party to which he belongs but above all It Is Intended to tll Iort the minds of the people from the naval question Sir Wilfrids reply to Bourassa Is that he Is In unholy alliance with the Conservative party with the solo object of bringing about Lau riors downfall If ho can convince the FrenchCanadian people of Quebec province that the fight Is igalnst Laurler In person he will go back to Ottawa But If he falls In this reciprocity probably will ran with him For Snip One saddle and harness mare also

the monstrous explanation advanced by Judge ORegr iIn defense of his declaration at Lout vllle that Senator Bradley Is one Senator on whose character there IIs no blot and on whose record ther Is no stain In his speech at Ellzabethtowi Judge ORear devoted many hun dreds of words to an attempted defense of that statement alleging It was due to some tlireat conveyed by some unidentified representative of Senator Bradley that Governor Bradley would surrender the caucus nomination unless he was elected Immediately Commenting on thls the Louisville Post says We admit that the assertion that Governor Bradley evep with the aid of Mr Reno scared Lillard and Charlton and McNutt and Mueller Into voting Mr Bradley Into the Senate sounds very much like comic opera and the last touch of the

In y dia of Shajee a Hindoo Prince who on a certain occasion showed him ij Belt almost as clever as Archimedes A high official had made a vow that he would distribute to the poop rr p the weight of his own elephant in slaver moneBut the great difficulty that at first presented Itself was thee inoge of ascertaining what this weight really was All the learned and clever men of the court q P n 1 seem to have endeavored in Vain to construct a machine of sufficient power to weigh the elephant At length Shajee came forward and suggested a plan which was simple and yet ingenious in the highest degree He caused the un wieldy animal to be conducted along- a stage specially made for the pur pose by the waterside into a flat bott med boat Then having mark ed on the boat the height to which e1eY ter was taken out and stones sub stituted in sufficient quantity to hold the boat to the same line The stones were then taken to the scales and thus to the amazement of the court was ascertained tho

was without stain Is arising to plague him upon every corner Like Ban quos ghost It will not down That he was Insincere In these remarks Is t I evident by recalling what he said 1 1upon a previous occasion Out of his own mouth Is he convicted In I his speech at Lexington Just threeI days before his convention speech thegave vent to tho following we quote from a stenographic report f In the Lexington Leader a Repub r lican paper t These lobbyists continued Judge ORear not only bribe Smembers of the Legislature to protect their Interests but i they ELECT United States Senators and decide elections They have elected them In Kentucky as well as In Illinois Ohio West Virginia and i Colorado Illinois Is not the only State that has a Legisla I I JackpotIf lobbyists have elected them In Kentucky says the knowing Appellate Judge Whom have the lobbyists elected In Kentucky To whom did Judge ORear Have we ever had n better of the machinations lobby the longdrawnout t11refer t the

State pay the I expenses of all primary elec I tions which various parties r Y may decide to hold leaving I the parties to determine for themselves whether or notj such primaries shall be heldI The Louisville Post a well rec 1 1ognized Republican paper whose editor Is heartily supporting Judge ORear and all of the candidates running with him recently had a column editorial comparing the platforms of the two leading parties n Kentucky Touching the liquor i question considered a vital Issue In Kentucky today the Post says Both parties declare for the passage of a straightout coun ty unit bill and there Is nor evasion of the Issue Of the I two the Democrats go per haps a trifle further by specif ically indorsing the opinion of the Court of Appeals as writ s ten by Judge ORear and con curred in by six Democratic Judges in the matter of tho caastitntlonality of the Cam mack bill And so according to the Post the Democrats seem to have slight ly the advantage on the county unit question because they go a little Republicansrf lthe primary election plank which l the Hartford Republican says is t as clear as mudJn tlfe Dento cratic platform thePost says Upon some other State Issues the party platforms are identi cal Both parties enter pledges for direct primaries for better schools and roads for direct election by the people of Unit ed States Senators for a unl form1 system of accounting for a war against the Third House and for a State examination of banksIt seems to be very clear to the Posts editor who takes a fall view of the matter Evidently thp Hartford Republican simply wants to fuss at the Democrats for political reasons only and cares little ol how sound the grounds are upon which It bases Its arguments It reminds us of the bashful young man who In calling upon his best girl Inquired about his prospective motherinlaws health As he ex plained afterwards not that he cared a dn but Just to get up more talk The Hartford Republican doesnt seem to b0 particular about the facts but Just wants to condemn the Democratic platform Concluding Its general summary of the Democratic and Republican State platforms the Post says Take them as a whole there Is In State Issues except In the vital matters of apportionment and the registration certificate act little to choose between them Both platforms are good Why cant our neighbor be fair enough to take a like view of the matter WORTH TRYING AGAIN The Democratic State Platform doesnt seem to please some of the Republican leaders who hold the selfappointed Job of censors for their party and they are trying to find all kinds oil fault with It They say It Is Insincere and that the pol des It advocates will never be put Into effect If the Democratic ticket Is elected How do theY know Have Democratic officials ever proved recreant to the trust reposed In them Have the Republican leaders any record to show as a sample of what ought to be done In State executive manners Rather havent they a pretty bad record along this line We rather think so and we believe the great mass of the people recollect tho bad performance of several recent Republican adminis rations Credit Is due Democrats for the Important progressive and worthy legislation that has been placed upon our statute books in recent rears accomplished by Democrats being placed in the administration of public affairs This is what Democrats promise In the futurenoth ing more nothing less Democracy Is a mighty good thing to trust in Four yearsthe Republican leaders of Kentucky pledged them selves for the county unit and what has been their record The most notable political incident during these years was tho corrupt deal made by Col Wm O Bradley with four alleged whiskey Demo crats by which the county unit was passed Into oblivion and the most able temperance advocate Kentucky had Beckham was defeated for the United States Senate Are the Republican leaders any moro sincere now The Democrats came out of the recent special session of Congress with colors flying They made a record which surprised their friends and rather dumfounded their enemies The predictions of Republicans that the Democrats would go to pieces and make a failure of their part of the session were not fulfilled The excellent record of the Democratic members shows what can be done in Congress with Democrats In power and It strength ens the party throughout the nation It Is saidthat Judge r ORear sent out letters to all Democratic and Republican newspapers of the State urging fair play and a high plane of conduct of the present campaign So far as The Herald Is concerned he will get It but we have quit kicking the clothes off the bed at night because we didnt get one of those circulars of advice Who would have thought that there are seventy thousand men In Kentucky who regularly sell their votes until Judge ORear called attention to this alleged fact Won del how he found it out Has he tny intimate acquaintance with the subject With both the leading political parties In Kentucky In favor of a county unit it only remians a matter of choice with the temperance menJhe Democratic party Is re ponslble for all our present tem teranca legislation Remember hat 4 You undoubtedly find some armedover Democratic principle- sn the Republican platform but if ou want straight goods with the t guaranteed brand on it votei the Democratic ticket The matter of an election especially a State election should be of vital Interest to every patriotic cit izen from start to finishAy THEY SEEM TO BE AFTER THE SEVENTY THOUSAND After Judge ORear was nomi nated by the Republican convention at Louisville so it Is stated on the most reliable information he call ed a meeting of the nominees He talked to the candidates on the ticket about the campaign and the election Then Judge ORear de manded that each candidate put up as his part of the campaign fund one years salary of the office to which he aspired This was to go Into a campaign fund and be used In addition to the fund which would be raised in the regular way Lets see about this If each candidate on the ticket put up a years salary he would draw If elected the result would be a cam paign fund of 26000 which would be used for the purpose for which such funds usually are used The amount named does not include the 6500 a year which the Governor draws and If Judge ORear should do as he demanded of the other candldatesthe campaign fund raised by the candidates alone would be 32700 which the cam paign committee would have as a nucleus for a campaign fund What is Judge ORear going to lo with this fund At Ellzabetbtown in his opening speech Judge ORear said that there are 70000 men In this State who will sell their votes at any tlectlonIs there any connection between the demand for one years salary and the statement that 70 300 voters can Jbe bought It cer alnly looks like the Judge was planning to go after some of those 70000 men who can be bought For a Judge of the Court of Appeals to demand onefourth of a nans salary lowland him In the office he seeks certainly is improper Why does he not go further and requIre everybody who Is promised a Job to give one years pay toward he campaign fund A big campaign fund could be secured In that vay and the 70000 might fatten as- a result Frankfort XewsJourI- Rl IEMOCRATS OF mSTmCTi i EXPECT TO WIN OUT

morning that Dr Wayland Alexander was 1dd having passed away a few hours before at his residence In 1East Hartford Carcinoma of the liver Is the technical name of the disease which carried him away For many months he had been In falling health yet ho took part In the teachers institute held here 1just a year ago At the last he was In a helpless and pitiable condition scarcely knowing anything or any Ibody arid not being able to Hu down nursingdfailed to revive his waning energies and all his loving kindred could do was to ti itch and wait for the end It Is hard In n few brief sentences to chronicle the career and death of a man like Dr Alexander As for his life It could be made to fill thefgoodness and worth of It would not be told A man of tho most lova and affectionate disposition a person could hardly come Into his presence without a thrill of adml ration and respect But It was In the schoolroom where the brillian cy of his intellect and the tender ness of his heart shone with the best effect Every student loved him They couldnt help It It was his to seas tho student body with a personality that compelled obedience for the very love of It No educator In this section of Ken tucky ever had a wider Influence nor could claim a larger number of bright young men and women as the product of his schoolroom pass ed out fully equipped for the trials and vicissitudes of life Hundreds of these people now occupy promi nent positions on lifes stage and can trace their early and latest teaching to the noble and tireless Professor whose death we now mourn The worth of their lives pays constant tribute to his match less genius Dr Alexander rind taught at South Carrollton Owensboro and other places but It was in our own city In the memorable days of Hertford College when he perhaps won his greatest distinction as President of the Institution and a teacher of renown Ho was 72 years old at the time of his death and leaves a wife and daughter Mrs E L Miller of Chicago

Louisville and 0 M Shultz of Livermore two forme students of the dead Professor The interment followed at Oakwood CountyITeacliers fitting tribute to the deceased vet teacher Quite a number of from out of town were pres ent It was a touching funeral and every feature of it bore evidence of the high esteem and loving regard in which wits held the noble Christ ian soul who has passed to his long

car ry out the plot to drive Dr Harvey t Wiley from the Government service This thought must have suggested Itself time and again to the minds of the men and women who crowded the Moss Investigating committee rooms and heard Dr I Wiley lay bare the startling facts of a systemized fight against him because he Insisted that food manu facturers keep their products pure At times as Dr Wiley told of the fierce persecution he had endured his voice almost broke and ho t could proceed only with difficulty At times also the committee mem bers utterly dumbfounded by the Doctors statements were at a loss as to what questions to ask him next t Not only was It shown that Dr Wileys efforts to serve the public I nnd protect it from injurious and poisonous substances in food preparations had been absolutely block ed by the conspirators In the admin- Istration headed by Secretary of Agriculture Wilson and his con controlling Influence Solicitor McCabe but that the latest effort to force Dr Wiley out of office was based upon a letter which he never received and knew nothing about Not boastfully or eagerly but iIn response to questions by members of the committee Dr Wiley recit ed tho universities at which lie had studied the great scientific socie ties at home and abroad which have honored him in various ways and the recital wont a long way In re vealing to the committee the great public spirit and sympathy of this man who possesses a courage In public duty which neither threats from official sources nor opposition by the powers of evil have been able to break downI While the whole hearing was a succession of revelations that left a committee and spectators thunder struck the most astonishing testimony came when Dr Wiley told of his efforts to prevent the use of alum and sulphur dioxide In food f productsII jI powIIamount of constipation that Is pre alent throughout the country vII j considered its use a serious danger to public health and wanted It stop ped pending

has raised an Issue which will rage with unabated fury until the close of the polls In November 1912 When Speaker Champ Clark l i ithrew down this challenge In what f fisnow regarded as one of the most f brilliant and militant speeches of I his entire career It meant not only that the Democratic fight for lower cost of living was to be one to a fin i Ish but that Champ Clark himself tr was the man best qualified to lead- t I t fI Ithat tight r Republicans as well as Demo crats apparently realized this as j was evidenced by the fact that when the Speakers name was mentioned in connection
