File:Urey Woodson (1859-1939) in the North Platte Semi-Weekly Tribune of North Platte, Nebraska on 18 July 1913.jpg

Says "Hog's Eye" Is All Right. Urey Woodson, of Owensboro, Kentucky, former secretary of the Democratic National Committee, is still of the opinion that the "hog's eye is done sot." In 1904 Mr. Woodson, then secretary of the national committee, was so sanguine of the election of Judge Parker that he would not listen to any of his friends who suggested the possibility of Democratic defeat. "The hog's eye is done sot," declared Mr. Woodson, using the mountaineer expression of old Kentucky. After the overwhelming defeat of Judge Parker Mr. Woodson was firm in his contention that the hog's eye was "sot," but that it was only looking into the future. Now, when politicians meet Mr. Woodson they do not joke him. "The hog's eye is surely done sot," said Mr. Woodson the other day. The former secretary of the national committee was in good spirits over the confirmation of his candidate for a collectorship at Owensboro. Mr. Woodson is not applicant for any position, but is content to help his Kentucky friends.
