Savoyard argues Jos Blackburn faces the entrenched Kentucky political machine led by the Goebel era system. He claims the machine controls nominations, uses patronage, and orchestrates primary outcomes in Bath and Rowan counties with biased election officers and sheriffs. Blackburn’s best path rests on western state strength and Louisville support, while rivals like Paynter Young and McCreary shape the slate.

Tipping and the Law
From the Chicago Chronicle the anti tipping law in New York is unlikely to succeed. It argues tipping stems from selfishness and vanity and cannot be cured by statute. Bribery and cowardice drive tipping, and laws will likely become dead letters as reform must come from the people themselves.
