SMITH IN THE RACE. Former District Attorney An- nounces for Attorney General, The Louisville Post says: “The Hon. W. M. Smith, until a few months ago the United States district attorney for Kentucky,bas announced himself as a candidate for the demo- cratic nomination for the position of attorney general, as was anticipated in the Evening Post some Lime ago. Mr. Smith hails from Mayfild, Graves county, but since his retire- ment from the district attorneyship he has been practicing law in this city. As the federal prosecutor he made one of the best records ever known in that office. In the recent trial of ex-Banker J. M. McKnight he conducted the prosecution single banded,and to his untiring efforts in the case is due the credit for securing the conviction of the banker. Mr. Smith will be opposed by the Hon. R.
