CHARLES E. SHEPARD.

The Kentucky Irish American this week presents its Republican readers the picture of Charles E. Shepard, candidate for nomination for Clerk of the Police Court at Tuesday's Republican primary.

Mr. Shepard is a well known and popular citizen, for many years prominent in trades union circles. He is the only representative of organized labor running before his party, which will make a big mistake if it does not nominate him. As a member of the Council Mr. Shepard has watched the workingmen's interests and will receive a large vote from that source. He possesses all the qualifications for the office, and the action of his party is being watched in this case with no little interest.
