Braffordwent to Brown and after thanking him for pardoning him asked if ho could do anything to repay him in a measure Yes said Gov Brown go home and vote for Col W 0 Bradley Bralford had been a Democrat before going to the penitentiary and gave this as the reason for his vote This con firmation of Browns perfidy set the wild and It yelled itself hoarse HOW REPUBLICANS GATHER TAXES Referring to Mr Taylors claim that the Republicans had made large collections of franchise taxes Senator Goebel in his speech at Elizabethtown showed that franchise taxation was established by the new Constitution adopted by a Democratic constitutional assembly that the statute under which the taxes are collected was passed by a Democratic Legislature that he himself happen to have written the law and that the necessary litigation to enforce it was pushed through by Jack Ilend rickt Democratic Attorney General The Republican party had no hand n any of it said Senator Goebel the Democratic and not the Republi can party which deserves credit for it Dont forget in this connection that there has been a reduction In railroad valuation of 12000000 under this Ad ministration Thats Republican tax gathering for you And onehalf of the taxes on this 12000000 would have gone to the school fund AS TO BROWNS BOLT IN 1860 At this very hour by that watch said he pointing to his timepiece on the table

Douglas man The conven tion had more trouble than our recent convention at Louisville It lasted from the 23d day ot April to the 31 day of May Then it took a recess to meet May 18 at Baltimore The two

favors end the Republican platform opposes the enactment of a law reducing the prices of scloolbooks used In the com mon schools of the state At the last session there was passed by the house of representatives a bill upon this sub ject offered by Mr Chnn of Merger county This bill fixed a maximum of prices for schoolbooks on an average onethird less than the proces now fixed by the school book trust but that maximum was still 10 per cent above the average maximum price fixed by a similar law that has been in successful operation in Indiana for 10 years In the house of representa tives and in the senate every Repub lican vote vas cast against this bill What good reason can there be why the sale school books manufactured and sold by the same corpora tion should In Kentucky cost 43 per cent or nearly onehalf more than they cost In the adjoining state of Indiana Such is the fact solely because the law permits It and because the represctativcs of the Republican par ty in the last general assembly did the bidding of the lobbyists of the book trust If there be anything that ought to be made as nearly free as air as the Jaw can make it it Is the opportunity of every child in the commonwealth to get an education The Democracy of Kentucky affirms that it Is as true now as It was when Jeffeson wrote it into the Declaration of Independence that govern ments derive their Just powers from the consent of the governed and that this applies to all peoples everywhere They affirm that this nation should no more have a British colonial policy than It should have a British

Increased the public debt raised the rate taxatlonandmlsapplledjthe public funds Let us look at the books said they in the campaign of 1895 and we will show these things For nearly four years Kentucky has had Republican rule the Republicans have had the books but there has not been nor is there now even a pretense that during Democratic administrations a single cent was misappropriated The present Republican administration when appealing to the people for sup port in 1895 promised If elected to educe the expenses of government It Das Increased them It promised to reduce the rate of taxation but has Increased It It promised to reduce the public debt but has Increased it It promised to raise the per capita an nual allowance for school children but has decreased It Never In the history of the commonwealth were there such scandals In the management of the prisons and insane asylums as under Republican management The Repub lican platform complains that by legis latlon enacted at the last session of the genera assembly it was deprived of the control of the penitentiaries The Democratic wardens and other officials in charge of the penitentiaries when the Republican administration came into power had been appointed for terms fixed by law The Republican administration turned these Democrats out long before the expira tion of their terms The Republican management Increased the cost of the penitentiaries The Democratic man agement under the new law has not only decreased the cost of maintaining and operating the penitentiaries but has made them selfsustaining Itopnbllcans Arraigned By the vote of the entire Republic an membership of both houses of the general assembly at its last session there was prevented the passage of a law reducing to a just charge tho prices of school

the general assembly that would have given people relief from oppressive burdens was vetoed by the Republican govern or chief among which was the Mc Cord bill to prevent extortion and dis crimination In freight rates by rail road corporations and both upon its original passage and upon the ques everyRepubllcanthis bill This bill was entirely in the interest of the masses of the people of the

in making this statement I speak for all the candi dates upon the state ticket and fore t1iinguishedcommittee Senator Blackburn The support of the state ticket by tho Cour ierJournal andTlmes was and

there be any obligation tit any kind due from the Democracy tidatesfavor or recognition of any kind will be accorded to those newspapers nor to any one connected with them for that support nor upon any other ac count Nothing whatever of the prin ciples of the Chicago platform of 1896 t blalformlion of the party to Bryan and Black burn will be surrendered or abated because of this support by those newspapers nor upon any other account Our position with reference to this matter Is precisely that ot Mr Bryan aa stated In his recent letter to Mr Woodson namely It is not the policy of the party to drive people away from It but rather to Invite people Jnto the party The party stand committed to the doc t rites set forth at Chicago and while uponthosedoctrlnP8ship of Gold Democrats It

distinction to the protective theory of the Republican party Those matters have been discussed tor years and years that lIe behind us I am not here to trench upon your patience or waste or wear away my strength by going Into a detailed statement of everything that occurred In the convention recently held by my party at Louisville A voiceYou are hereto get grand welcome from ue aIMr Blackburn Thank you for appreciate it and am grateful for itI know there are those among us who have hitherto been good Demo crats who are not satisfied with this ticket even if they are satisfied the platform of the party This withI the first time that you or I have threatened with bolts by We have heard that Democratsi This is not the first time constituted political purifiers have asserted their right to purge Democracy of its impurities and save it from its own sacrilegious and suicidal hand Pal mer and Buckner undertook that vol untary act In 1896 and a very worthy gentleman by the name of Hindman from Adair county followed in 1S97 and offered himself as a cacrlfldal tim upon the altar of regenerated VICj purified Democracy We are told that patriotsinanxious to follow In the footsteps of Buckner and Hindman But I am riot going to say anything about that for I thank God that Kentucky Is not cursed with such a polit boltingDemocraticwe shall be on next Wednesday but Almighty God who made this world KentuckyInif he has the mind to If it is to come let us remember that sufficient unto the day should be the good as is the evil thereof and we wont anticipate it PARTY PriTlFIEUS Some Records to Be Draped Into the Glaring Light of Day I am not willing to believe that you can with a search warrant find a Democrat in Kentucky who is fool to take a nomination at the enoughI a bolting rump convention but If they do organize it and thatI in the field I tell you now I am not going to say an unkind word or a harsh word about a solitary man who sees fit to follow its flag We may have occasion to say something about the misguided fellows who accept places on that ticket I have no doubt that 150 Democratic spzakers from now until November from Mills Point to the mouth of Sandy will be exam ining into every fauty buckle in the harness of every fellow who is fool enough to allow himself to be put on that ticket Wednesday I give notice here and now that I shall be at it I dont mean to abuse them but I mean to do whats worse for them I mean to tell the truth on them and if there are Tiny sore spots In their public of ficial political records let them hug toI their souls the assurance that until the sun goes down on the 7th of next November 160 or 200 Democratic ora tors on the stump in Kentucky will be telling the peope about It every Gods blessed day Applause Now I want to ask you my friends I dont want to mortify you by asking you to hold up your hands in this presence and making profert of your apostacy but if there Is a man within the sound of my voice who expects to follow the ignis fatuus and bolt what are you mad about What has hurt you anyhow Are you not satisfied with the Democratic platform at Chi cago Are you not satisfied with the platform adopted by the Louisville convention the other day If you are not in Gods name go and go In peace for you do not belong inside of the Democratic party But let us argue together If I am wrong I want to be set right and If you are wrong God only knows how anxious I am to set you right If you are not mad with your platform what in the dickens is it that ails you Are you mad with the ticket If so what part of it Is it the head of It or the tall of it that j ju can not swallow Are you mad with your candidate for governor If so go to him like an honest man and tell him what your objection Is to him Is it because you were not for Goebel Bolters Speak Out That is not an explanation A very large matirity of the Democrats of the state of Kentucky were not for Goebel and a very large majority were not for Stone and a very large majority were not for Hardin That Is no apol ogy That is no justification that is no excuse You can not afford to bolt your ticket because you did rat get openjIs there anything about Gcwbels rec ord that you do not like If there Is put your finger on the flaw In all I 3 record I challenge and defy you 3 do It He has been In public life and under the calcium light of criticism for the past 12 years and if there is a single thing to his discredit if there Is a single utterance that has ever fallen from his lips If there can be shown a single piece of apostacy or treason or any failure of fealty or loyalty to his party point it out I dare you and defy you You can not do it for it is thereThen his record is clean and if the platform suits you if you can not find a flaw in the record of a single candidate on the ticket I ask you again as honest men tell me what In the devil drives you out of the party ApplauseAre going to answer and tell me you do not like the Louisville convention Dont plead the baby act Be a man even if you are going to be an apostate Tell the truth and dont skulk or hide from it when it con fronts you If your platform suits you and If you cannot put your finger upon the flaw In the record of a single candidate what Is the matter We dont like Redwines rulings In the Louisville convention Let us be fair I can afford to be for my conscience tells me that I have truth and righteousness on my side and I have no reason to skulk and dodge You dont like the rulings of the chairman of the Louisville convention Is that a jus tification for bolting your the election of a Republican admlnlsI tration in Kentucky for four yearsa proper remedy for Redwines rulings in the convention Where is the man who respects himself and fears his God nr vases the alt wno WIlt rooK me i offer as an ez CUBe as thatINo MHO Do you Handle say you licntnckIical bossism In you are a little too timid I am not I know that the mannever did

Kentucky Democracy John G Carlisle try it once and I could not If I wanted to tell you where he is today All that I can tell you now is that he is net in KCT tucky and that the Louis ville and Nashville railroad system of which Mr Goebel has been telling has not an eightdriver engine tnat has power enough to pull him across the KentuckyButpolitical bossism Now I am willing to be fair I am amiable today The truth is I am too weak to fool men anyhow For the sake of argument I will grant anything that you claim I will admit every postulate and con cede every premise but you will allow me please to beg leave to dissent from your conclusion That Is the only thing I ask for You say you do not like the present political situation Well for the sake of the argument I will admit what is not true and say that I do not either You say it Is bad and for the sake of argument I will say itis worse We are agreed that far and now I simply want to have you answer me a question Why Dissension What are you golg to do about It Are you goin to help things Are you going to cure the sick patient by call ing in the Republican doctor If you do instead cf quinine he will give you strychnine and arsenic sure There Is no sense in that Is there anybody who believes that there Is a system of political bossism In this state For the sake of the argument I will admit to be true what I know Is false and will say All right I agree there Is How are you going to cure It By voting the Republican ticket Oh no Why even a fool we are told can learn In the College of Experience Wise men can learn without going through with the experience but people like we who are not bright can only learn in collegeHave not seen bossism In New York represented by Tammany from the time of Boss Tweed down to the present overthrown and trampled In the dust of defeat time after time and has that defeat of the bosses ticket cured bossism There is a practical test that tells you you cannot do it that way But if we are to have a sys tem of Dcncratlc bossism here for Gods sake Iont swap the witch for the devil dont jump from the frying pan Into the fire and take Republican bossism Cheer But gentlemen these arc makeshifts and subterfuge They are not honest reasons advanced by honest men This is too big a question to be meas ured upon the comparative merits of the men What matters it to you what boots it to me whether Wat Har din or Stone or Goebel was nominated for Governor of Kentucky All three of them were decent men There is not one of them who would not make a respectable efficient and creditable governor What difference would It make to the people 50 years hence or for that ratter 10 years hence whether the one or the other of those worthy aspirants had succeeded In wjnnlng the nomination Not a whit IIt makes little difference to you or me today whether one nan wins or an other man loses It does not matter much to the people of Kentucky whether Goebel and the rest of the state ticket shall rise in triumph In November or go down In the dust of defeat and disaster It does not matter much to the pope of Kentucky or of this whether I win before the next legfsature of Kentucky In my candidacy for the senate or go down In a long and lasting defeat It does npt matter so essentially to the people of Kentucky or of this country whether the great and matchless leader of the lncomparab1eNebraskan shall be eected or defeated In 1900 but It does matter and matters much to the peope of Kentucky and to the ppope of this country whether the man who represents the principles for which Bryan stands for which I stand and for which Gcebel and this ticket stands shall win or lose in the coming contest Great applause EXCUSEIHas Any Democrat For Abandoning Ills Partys Faith I know my Mends that you have heard a great deal of criticism and abuse heaped upon what Is known as the Goebel election law I am not go saidjon the subject Is this A Democratic legislature passed it and a Republic Republicana repeal of that election law Every Republican newspaper and every Re publican orator and every Republican candidate swears that the Republican party will never rest in peace until It repeals the Goebel election law All right Let them win this fight In November If God forgets to be gracious to us and If a reign of the devil on earth is to be inaugurated and Ken tucky Is to be doomed to fdur more years of Republican Incapacity and misrule Let them carry this state in the coming election and elect their state ticket and carry the legislature and I will bet myrlght arm against a hopejpenny of a search warrant you cannot find un buried on this earth a single solitary Republican who would not jump In the river before he would vote to repeal the Goebel election law I am willing to believe that It Is pos sible for a Republican to tell the truth sometimes when he tries and it Is an assured tact that it is not going to hurt him much If he does I am willing to stretch my liberality to some extent and to believe that It Is possi ble for a Republican when all the surroundings are favorable to tell the truth by accident but I would not believe the best Republican the Lord ever made lf he ever did make a good one ir ae would ten me as wouia vote to repeal the Goebel election law after possessionYouI and so does anybody who ever had a passing acquaintance with an aver politicianNow Is there any justification Is there any defense Is there any excuse or any apology for a Democrat refusing to support this ticket if he is forced to admit that every syllable in the platform of the party meets his indorsement and that there Is not a candidate upon that ticket who has a faulty buckle in his harness Is not that complete- I might go Into a detailed statement of the facts in relation to the late Democratic state convention but It Is not necessary I never sjw a Democrat nor a Republican ndf a Populist nor a Prohibitionist nor a Womans suffragist convention In my life that In YoungMensday school gathering If you answer and say that Is not a justification I ad mit It just as you can not defend and justify many human events but I have this to say and no man will

TRIBUTE TO GOEBEL Kentucky Democrats May Well Be Proud of Their Ticket Now my friends you have a ticket you need not be ashamed of There Is not a man on It whose record Is not clean It is well divided

the enemies he has made and by whom he Is handicapped to his race for governor today There never was a Democrat who stood before the Democracy of Kentucky as heavily han dicapped as that candidate Is

mountain come the railroad and the corporate wealth and power of which he has spoken In an en deavor to drag him down and defeat him He Is carrying every handicap that was ever put upon a candidate but we are not whining about it and we do not propose to do so We will meet the combined opposition of all our enemies from without and the cowardly flank movements of traitors from within We will meet and grapple with corporate wealth and corporate power and corporate exactions we will meet the world the flesh and the devil and teach them that In spite cf all Democracy is united Rid is the real and dominating party of this state Great cheering He has tried to talk to you about trustsdont be alarmed I am not going to talk to you much longer Goebel has his second wind and he keeps winking and blinking at me to let him have the floor You have come to see him and so have I and I never heard a fellow doing better up until the time of the break TRUSTS One of the Greed Evils of Modern Times Mercilessly Flayed Goebel was telling you aboijt the trusts I do not want to take It out of his mouth He can describe them better than I can but I want to say one word about them No man ran overstate the dangers that threaten countryListentold you that the Republican party was the party of and some doubted it I did not I know that the Republican party is unalterably opposed to the growth expansion

if any man disputes it I stard ready to prove It There is no wen Informed man in this country that dont know I tell the truth and there Is not an honest one that dont admit it The Republican party is so dead set on crushing out trusts that under Republican domination with both houses of congress the supreme court and the presidency all In the hands cf the Republican party within the last 18 months there has only been 8830 000000 gone Into trusts in this feeland of ours They have not been able to get quite 7000000000 Into true is In the last 18 months because cf the unconquerable opposition of the ite publican party to trusts Stop and think Only 7000000000 have gre into trusts In the United States In the last IS months Why a clock Is al ways busy but a clock In 3 030 dare wont click off as

Republican protected plunderers and thieves That Is a slander The trust is not human in vention In its construction and dis covery like In Its operation It a doublebarreled automatic selfad justing backaction machine No hu man or mortal brain ever devised or discovered the trust It required Its construction and discovery a crm bination of human ingenuity supple mented by devilish malignity and It took both man and devil to create the trust It Is the only machine ever known among men that robbed at brth ends at the same time and ynu cant stop It A trust robs the producer at that end by fixing the price of the racy product Theflour trust robs thefarnrr of Graves county and the tobacco trust robs the tobacco raiser of Grave city by fixing arbitrarily the price cf wheat and tobacco The tobacco and flour trusts say to the farmer at that end I will give you so much for your tobacco and so much for your whtat take It or you will not sell ItT gave made a corner on the market am the only buyer You take my price or you take none That same tc bacco trust and that same flour ard wheat trust turns to the consumer or the other side and arbitrarily fixes the price for which they will supply the trade They say to the chewer and the smoker We fix arbitrarily the price at which you can buy your tobacco and you will pay that price or you must reform your tobacco habit for we have a corner That same wheat and flour trust says I am not going to rob you and you have no business complaining And the totaro trust says I am not srai to rob any tobacco grower I stn wheat and the tobacco by taking It n my own price and I am going to give you an arbitrary price at which you will have to buy or starve for I have a corner on the flour market and yci can not buy anywhere else Now If you dont

the principles of Democracy and at its conclusion Senator Goebel finished his masterly address vThe immense meeting was held in the shadeless courthouse yard at May- field and despite the great heat

and carry to a glorious victory the banner of W J Bryan Cheers Mr Goebel said Fellow Citizens We are entering upon the initial battle of the great na tional conflict of 1900 Now as in 1896 the corrupt and corrupting forces that seek to perpetuate their control of government to enrich themselves at the expense of the masses of the peo ple are engaged in an effort fraudu lently to take Kentuckys electoral vote from Bryan and transfer it to McKinley to prevent the election to the federal senate of Blackburn Ken tuckys foremost champion of bimetal lism and to subject Kentucky permanently to the domination of Hanna ism and Hunterism and all that theg Imply FOE OF DEMOCRACY- Big Railway Corporation ArraignedIFor Dipping In In 1896 the most effective Instru ment that aided in fraudulently Kentuckys electoral vote from takingI and giving it to McKinley Louisville and Nashville com pany Today the chief Influence that is endeavoring to repeat the foul work of 1896 Is the Louisville and Nashville Railroad company Now as In 1896 the means employed to this end are the subsidizing of newspapers the coercion and Intimidation of employes and dependents and an attempt to di vide the Democratic party The true reason for this course of the most powerful monopoly of the commonwealth is found not so much in the pretended apprehension of hos tile state legislationfor no such leg

desist from this effort only when a pledge Is given not to do anything to those who control the affairs of corporation thatI In other words the owners of corporation which the people of tucky created by act of their general assembly assume to decide for the people of the commonwealth what laws shall and what laws shall not be enacted and what laws shall and what laws shall not be enforced There Is therefore distinctly and unequivocally presented to the people of Kentucky the question whether their laws shall be made and executed by themselves through their duly chosen servants or whether the ex ercise of the sovereign powers of gov ernment shall be turned over to the most powerful corporation in the com mcmveaUt I do net believe that the people of Kentucky are ready to abandon gov ecirent of by and for the people and to substitute therefor government by the Louisville and Nashville Railroad company for the benefit of the Roths childs and the Belmonts But that question must be determined In this contest Applause There Is no fact better established than that during the canvass preced ing the recent Democratic state con venton and during that convention the Louisville and Nashville company left undone nothing RailroadIIts power to control the action convention That that is sufficiently attested by the patform adopted and the ticket nominated by the convention and the open letter of Mr Milton H Sriith And when this corporation failed to control the Dem ocratic state convention then its agents attempted to break up that convection in order to prevent the cotrlratlon of candidates upon the platform that had been adopted Pending the Democratic canvass the Repub tan state newspaper organ the Louisville Commercial on March 24 1S99 said this on its editorial page cccterrlng the LoulsVllle and Nash ville Railroad company and its at tempt to control the Democratic state conventionA Republican View It appears therefore that at least KntuckyIsfact is of great

entering upon a dangerous campaign It may nomI- nate for governor but it will subse quently face an infuriated people atIthe polls It will not be permitted govern this state It would better not

the Republican state organ the Louisville and Nashville Railroad company has undertaken the job of electing 3 governor and other state officers butt is attempting to elect not the Democratic but the Republican candidates This attempt is a to the public welfare the Louisville and Nashville Railroad company will face an infuriated people at the polls and it will not be permitted to govern the state although It has undertaken the job Applause SILVER AN ISSUE Kentucky Democratic Platform Favors the White Metal The platform adopted by the De mocracy of Kentucky this year is as clear and unequivocal a defiance of all the forces of monopoly and concentrated wealth as the national platform of 1896 itself It reaffirms without qualification that national platform freeIa medium of exchange It is an established economic principle that as the volume of primary money which is the basis of all business exchanges decreases the value of all property measured In the medium of exchange decreases moneyincreasesured in or by It Increases Also as the amount of primary money is lessened the purchasing power of the dollar Is increased From the founda tion of the government until 1873 both gold and sliver constituted primary money of this countrybeIng freely received at the mints without discrim ination against either metal and without charge for mintage In 1873 without demand therefor from any political party without discussion of the mat ter without open or public demand from any business Interest but secretI Ir and surreptitiously sneer monetized and gold was made tile aol primary money The volume of pre mary money was thus cut In half the value of all things measured in money was likewise cut in half and the value or purchasing power of all credits was doubled Thin act was done In the in terests of the holders of the bonds another securities of the American peo plOk It doubled the value or purchasing power of all dbts the American peopl owed It depreciated at least onehalf the value of all property that tfo American people possessed or might produce The great creditor nation of the world In 1873 was England and there the great bulk of American se curities was owned The United State5Iwas the great debtor nation of 1873 imposed upon this country the monometallic system of the greatest creditor of this country England That system is as much a British system now as It was In 1873 An American policying silver to its constitutional place as- a money metal The bimetallist asks nothing from government upon this subject except to undo the wrong It has done He proposes no mere ex pedient He Insists upon a return the wise conservatism of the toI of the republic The struggle for return to this system has now contin ued for a quarter of a century That struggle must succeed The demon etization of silver was a fraud upon every solvent mana theft from every everylaborer justiceThein the past In this contest sides with the struggling masses who produce the wealth and pay the taxes The Re publican party now as In the past ranges Itself with the Idle holders of Idle capital with the bondholder and the money changer The Democrats of Kentucky declare that their faith In bimetallism has been vindicated by events that the necessity for the res toration of the double standard was acknowledged by President McKinley and the congress when in 1897 a commission was sent to Europe to entreat other nation to aid us In reestablish ing bimetallism that the failure of this commission to secure European cooperation establishes the fact that the free coinage of silver can come only throu the Independent actinof the United States and that present leg1 ratio of 16 to 1 is theIonly ratio at which bimetallism be restored and that opposition that ratio Is confined to those who op pose bimetallism at any ratio and to those who ignore the reasons which led three national conventions to adopt it- And in order to emphasize as noth- Ing else could emphasize their conviction and purpose with reference to this great question the Democracy of Kentucky have in their platform nom presidencyBryan and as their candidate to suc ceed William Lindsay in the federal senate Joseph C S Blackburn Great cheeringIDEADLY TltUSTSIPolicy of the Democratic and Repub Beau Parties Aptly Compared The Democratic platform pledges the party to renewed efforts to sup press the trusts It declares in favor of an amendment to the statute now on the statue antitrustIing nonenforcible any by any trust or any trust with a view to fix or regulate prices or control production In other words no trusts and perImlttedthat Is the product of any trust The trust is among the greatest the evils of the time Trusts ofI formed and operated through corpora ions The corporation is a creature of the government Theoretically all corporations are created for the pub privIlegeslaws should be enacted to prevent the abuses or to revoke the privileges abused The tendency of the trusts of this day Is to produce a condition like that which was produced by what was known as the feudal system in Europe 400 and 500 years ago Our histories teach us that In that time and under that system nearly all wealthwhich then consisted largely in landwasowned by a select class known as the nobility The great body of the people were tenants and servitors upon the land many passing with the land like the cattle upon it With the develop ment of constitutional liberty the feudal system disappeared The trust of this day tends to impoverishment of the many to enrich the few It means purbasethe power thus acquired to plunder the masses of the people It enables productionducer consumerand employe alike It means what the concentration of great wealth in the hands of the few has meant in all ages and in all coun tries the making of mere dependents deprivinghempendence It is founded in heartless greed and is at war with fundamental principles cf republican institutions and the dearest rights of mankind Republican government can not coexist with complete domination of the trust Carried to its logical conclusion the trust Is more destructive of individual independence than a monarchical form of government Either the people must control the trusts or the trusts will rule the people The chief means through which trusts are established and maintained are the single gold standard and a high protective tariff The Democratic party Is and always has been unalterably opposed to both the Republican party is responslbe for both Applause The socalled Sherman antitrust law enacted by congress contains a section declaring that no proceeding shall be Instituted under it except upon direction of the United States district attorney for the district In which the proceeding is brought or upon the direction of the attorney general of the United States No grand jury can act independently under the law The law has been a dead letter ever since its enactment It nevr was intended to be enforced and never will be by a Republican administration Mr Attorney General Grlggs has publicly declared his reason for his failure to enforce the federal antitrust statute to be that the federal government can n suppress them and that the trust question is one that must be dealt with by the states them selves At the last session of the Kentucky general assembly the Democratic ma

possible refuge from the power of the people In my present position I could scarcely be justified were I to omit raising a warning voice against this approach of returning des potism It Is not needed or fitting here that a general argument should be made In favor of popular institutions but there is one point with its connection not so hackneyed as most others to which I ask a brief attention It Is to the effort to place capital on an equal footing with if not above labor in the struure of government It Is assumed that labor is available only in connection with capital that nobody labors unlesssomebrdy else owning capital somehow by the use of It induces him to labor Labor Is prior to and Independent of capital Capital is only the fruit of labor and could never have existed If labor had not first existed Labor Is the superior of capital and deserves much the higher considerationIt through the party of Jef ferson and Jackson that this cation can be saved from complete subjec tion to the m ney power and the trusts Cheers The Democratic platform approves- of and the Republican platform demands the repeal of the statute amend ing the election law enacted by the last general assembly The gist that statute is that it takes from county judges and confers upon orI commissioners in each county power to appoint each year the prc clnct election officers that are to con duct elections the county commission ers being appointed by a state boardtof three commissioners chosen general assembly ELECTION LAW Its Real Provisions and Workings Are Lucidly Explained This statute was rendered neces sary by the frauds by which the vote of Kentucky was In 1896 taken from Bryan and given to McKinley By what means were these frauds In the election of 1896 committed By the deliberate and systematic violation of the most important provision of the secret ballot election law designed to prevent frauds namely that provision which directed that at each voting precinct there shall be a division of the election officers among the polit ical parties contesting in the election There never was a secret ballot elec tlon law enacted anywhere that did not contain that safeguard against fraud Why is that provision so Important Because by other of the law it is directed provIsionsI ately upon the closing of the polls the ballots shall be counted and immedi countingbetestifyIngInhow he voted It is obvious that under such a system if election officers act corruptly they can with impunity make the result of an election what they choose without reference to how the votes were cast The ballots being destroyed and the voter prohibited from testifying how he voted It is im theIparty can see to Itand If they are honest they will see to It that no false count in the ballots is made and they will refuse to Join In certifying any other than the honest result From the time that the bill for the election law was offered in the anyIthingtion officers of the city of Louisville preclncts officer for Bryan This statement has never been questioned by any one majorityScounty for McKinley It would have been quite as easy to have made the majority 23000 and there can be no majorityIndistricts had not been underestimated by the Republican party leaders and their allies in that contest the McKIn- ley majority In Louisville and Jefferson county would have been much larger than it was We have the authority of Hon John S Rhea for this fact Several weeks before the election of 1896 it became known that the Republican county judge of Monroe county had grossly violated the law requiring a division of the election officers Mr Rheas brother and a friend went to Tompklnsville the county seat of Monroe county end called the attention of the county judge to this violation of the law and demanded a division of the election or fleers The county Judge promptly agreed to comply with the demand and told the Democrats to select their list of officers which they did and the eveningbeforerevoked the appointments thus made origInally Hon Godfrey W Hunter turned out the largest Republican majority the county ever gave There is nothing better known than the fact that In 1896 no definite knowl edge could be had as to what was the Republican majority In the Eleventh congressional district for a week after the election The reports as to what that majority was were changed everyday and the Republican majority grew with every change It Is reasonably certain that If the returns of the election In 1896 from the other parts of the state had not yet reached Frank fort the returns from the Eleventh congressional district would still beheld back In 1896 in the Eleventh congressional district the requirement of the law that the election officers should be divided among the political parties contesting in the election was wholly disregarded The records of the Bell county court show this remarkable fact concerning the election of 1896 One of the precinct election officers appointed by the county Judse of Bell county for one of the precincts of the town of MIddlesboro was Hon Daniel G olson then the Republican member of congress for that district and a candidate for reelection In that election Is It any wonder that a ma jority of 16000 was turned out for Mc Kinley In that district The wonder Is that the majority was not 26000 A Remedy In only one way could Indefinite repetition of these frauds be prevent ed That way was by changing the appointing power so as to render it certain that at every voting precinct In the commonwealth the DemocraticIparty would be real Democrats as well as the Repub lican party by two Republicans and this the new law does Applause utIteredwas no for offenses committed by penaltyI ficers was provided by the and there was no law orIfensesjudged as the advocates of the had contended that the penalties proj elecItlonthe enactment of the new law It was claimed that because the new statIute did not provide for appeals courts from decisions of election con test boards in election contests there fore that right was destroyed But the court of appeals decided as the Dem ocrats contended that the right of ap peal to the courts remained unaffected in every case in which there was such right before the new law was enacted The Republican platform declares that the law comiLits broad power to irresponsible commissioners not cho sen by or accountable to the people for their acts To whom Is a county judge In any of the mountain counties having large Republican majorities responsible And what would such a judge care for criticism because he had not In appointing election officers divided them among the old political parties Under the old law the action of the county judge In appointing election officers could not be reviewed nor could he be removed from office nor n any wise punished for disregarding the law governing the appointment of election officers There can scarcely be imagined a more irresponsible power than that conferred by the old law upon the county judge But the new law empowers the state commissioners to remove from office at any time any county commIs- sIoner so that whenever any county commissioner violates the law there is an immediate remedy by bringing the matter to the attention of the state boardIt was said this law was without precedent but in Ohio the Republican party has for years had In operation a law which vests in one man the secretary of state the power to appoint county election commissioners for all counties in the state save those con- taInIng the large Republican cities and in those excepted counties which usually go Republican even when the state goes Democratic the power to appoint the election commissioners is vested In the mayors The Republican press of Ohio of course continues to denounce the infamous Kentucky election law In Virginia the home of Jefferson the father of the Democratic party the general assembly at every ses sion by joint resolution appoints board of three election commissioners for every county In the commonwealth who in turn appoint the registration and election officers Mahoneism has given the people of Virginia a proper appreciation of the importance of this subject and they have therefore placed it upon the same plane with the highest function of governmentthe exer- cIse of the sovereign legislative power In Tennessee the home of Jackson than whom there was no greater Democrat nor truer man the governor an nually appoints three election commissioners for each county who in turn appoint the election officers The people of Tennessee have had a longer experience with Republican frauds under a secret ballot system than have the people of Kentucky and that ex- perIence has taught them what is necessary to prevent those frauds Phase of the Opposition I have confidence not only in the wisdom but in the integrity of John W Daniel and compeers Virginia and Isham G Harris Benton McMIl lin Robert 1 Taylor William B Bate and other Democrats of Tennessee Their brand of Democracy Is good enough for me even If it does not suit the tastes of Mr Henry Watterson and Colonel W C P Brecklnridge and I believe that these Tennesseeans and Virginians have at least as much honesty as W Godfrey Hunter W S Taylor and other Republican party leaders of Kentucky Applause The character of the opposition to this law Is the best evidence of its necessity and wisdom Every corrupt and malign Influence in the commonwealth or out of It that concerns Itself with our elections opposed the enactment qf this law denounces it now and demands it repeal When the bill for the law was pending the railroad lobby the book trust lobby and every other corrupt Influence at Frankfort used every possible means to defeat itEvery influence and agency that fought the Democracy In 1896 and helped to steal Kentuckys vote opposed the enactment of this law and is against it nowThe best test of any law is its practical operation In November of last year we had an election nnder this law It Is conceded that that election was as fairly conducted as any election ever held in the commonwealth Two contests for seats In congress grew out of that election both contests being made by the Republican candidates but In neither case as there any claim of wrong under or by reason of this law Judge
