Upon memorable occasions in the past in this state the people have proved that they would not be ruled by a political ring. Sut heretofore political rings have grown slowly and have bad their clammy fingers upon the public offices before the people became aware of their presence. But Senator Goebel has built up his po- litical machine in an entirely differ- ent way. Heretofore the corrupt organization has been perfected by a lavish use of the state patronage. But now a law is passed which at once brings into existence and power the best orgamized and most danger- ous political machine or factional or- ganization that has ever taken s hand in Kentucky politics. Under the guise of the people’s chosen repre- sentative three men chosen by a parti- ean legistature dictate the composi- tion throughout the state of the local electoral commissions. Three irre- sponsible men, clothed with supreme authority, select in each county three other men, who in turn select the men to preside at the casting of the bal- lots, The system is now almost com- plete. The three state potentates have appointed their local subordin- ates, making each and every county board practically partisan by ap- pointing in no case more than one member of the opposing party. The democratic press, or that por- ie servile to Goebel, tellens. that the members of the county boards are all honorable men, but the personality of the members of the county boards, or of the supreme board itself, for that matter, is of no importance. They may be, and are im many instances, men of good character, just in their public life, esteemed in business. But they have been chosen for partisan purposes, and they know it. They are placed thority to carry out the will of an oligarchy within their own party. Already there are heard mutterings of threatened revolt from their own recalcitrant and disgusted associates. If the system works out as it has been designed liberty is dead in Ken- tucky, and even democrats will groan under their self-imposed tyranny.

From the highest officers in the state down to the petty officers who wait upon the polls, in every county and elec- tion precinct, the politics of the state is in the hands of a machine more dangerous than any machine that ever before helped to control the af- fairs of this or any other state. ELLIS Rudy & Phillip 219 BROADWAY Ir is said that the ‘Peace Barbe- 221 BROADWAY cue,"’ heralded far and wide a few days ago to come off at La Belle park on September 3d, has fallen through because Mr. Wheeler, the democratic nominee, refused to meet Mr. Reeves in joint debate on that vccasion, At least this is what Mr. Reeves says. As the ladies who had the affair in charge relied mainly on this debate as an attraction, the whole event bas been cancelled. ILICITORS WANTED, CIVIL SERVICE EXAMINA- TION.
