JUDGE HOWELLS STUFF FUNNY

Following is a pertinent letterfrom a Hopkinsville independent

ationEditor Evening Post

In todays issue of the CourierJournal Judge W R Howell ofChristian county Is liberally quotedand groat weight is evidently givento his utterances To those who knowthe Judgo the stuff is too funny tobe noticed To those who dont knowhim it is well enough to say that hohas never been and never will ho

JudoPurely by accident ho slipped in as

Commonwealths Attorney andsometimes attends to the duties ofhis office but for many weeks hasmade Frankfort his headquartersand since Mr Ooehel was shot knowslittle if any more about local senti ¬Aguhmldov ¬

less null Kentucky need not be dis-

turbed¬

I because of his existenceI have been In close touch with tho

w element in tho Democratic partywhich opposed what is known asGoebolism and know personallynearly every one in this city whoopenly stood for true Democracy andif thoro is but ono who has weakenedI have failed to find him The op- ¬

position here is very strong so muchso that the County Election Boardhad to throw out about 760 votes tokeep the Republican majority downto normal In addition to this oneprecinct in particular which has anormal Republican majority of oighygave Mr Goobel twentyono ma-jority

¬

This all in the face of thefact that thoro was a strong antiGoebol element among tho Demo ¬

crats with not a Republican in theprecinct for Mr Goebol Other pre ¬

cincts wero manipulated very muchin tho same way Instead of West-ern Kentucky being solid for thegnn at Frankfort which is headedby Blackburn and Beckham it isjust the opposite Tim Demo ¬
