ceeded to compare Kentucky with that
OF Indiana, declaring the former was far
behind the latter, owing 10 the incubus Of

Democracy into power, 80 that they
could do away with the new amendments.

OF alleged sectional school books and the
restrictions upon books In the public
school laws Of Kentucky, arguing that
the blacks should be put on the same
footing as the whites, and that the idea
Of the inferiorlty Of the black race was an
old fogy notion. The main part of his
