An Exciting Scene When Judge Dixon'a
Name Was Presented.
It was in the caucus that enthusiasm drst
broke al bounds. It was organised at two
O'Clock by the selection Of Senator w. n.
Thornton as chairman. The chairman
stated that the purpose of the meeting wa
to determine upon some action for the con.
vention, which would be assembled again
later. Some expression Of opinion wat
needed, and, in order to ascertain the
wishes of the delegates concerning candi-
dates, he thought it best to call upon the
counties. Beaverhead began tho list, and
named Dixon, whose name was greeted with
prolonged applause. Then came the Other
counties in succession, and, a. each had but
one candidate, the enthusiasm grew to great
excitement. Maj. Maginnis made an clio.

Judge Dixon in eloquent terms, and Hon

mentioned he arose to his feet and at
tempted to speak, but could gain no recog

shouted down. After the last county hat
expressed its choice the judge arose, and II
a few words thanked the delegates for the

name Of w. w. Dixon" he attempted to
continue, but was silenced for several min

impossible to make himself heard unless he
dropped the name of their standard-bearer,
he calmed them down for q few
moments. II remember, MIR. President,
he said, 'in my early reading as q school
boy that used to declaim sometimes ex-
tracts from the speeches of Daniel Webster.
And I remember that once in speaking to a
graduating class of Harvard university Mr..
Webster undertook to define what eloquence
was, and he then said that words and phrases
might be marshalled in every direction, but
when mems lives, when the fate of their
wives and children were hanging on the de-

quence, then self-devotion is eloquence. w.

THE members of the Kentucky Pres
Association have no doubt read Col. w
NJ. HuIls article in the Courier-Journal
of the 10Th. relative TO the Old Point eX
cursion. Ii fully states the matter and
we are sure those who will consider il
fully will agree that it is a very happy
solution of the question. The G. x o.
has changed hands since Mr.. w. \. Will
gus. who was with the old corporation,
extended the invitation to the X. /. A.,
and that gentleman is not now connect
ed with the road. Mr.. Al. w. Fuller
the clever and accommodating general
passenger agent, is willing to do every
thing he can to fulfill the obligation of
the former management, incurred thro
Mr. Wilgus except to run the special
train, which would cost $1,000 and be
charceable to his department. IL Is his
desire, he told us, when we called at his
office in Cincinnati, to make rs good a
showing as possible and to operate his
department on a. economical a basis as
he could. He proposed two plans, both
OF which we consider reasonable and lib
eral. If as many as 100 members and
their wives and daughters wish TO 90
and will so express themselves to us. he
will run the special at the lowest round
trip rate ever ofered-S9, or he will is
sue free passes to a reasonable number
of editors, during the summer, upon APP
plication To and recommendation from
us. This will be far more pleasant than
going in body, which would subject the
members to all the Inconvenience that
crowded hotels impose. We do not see
that the big-hearted Will Wilgus had any
reason to feel embarrassed in the matter
at all, certainly not after this very salts
factory compromise.
We are in receipt OF a letter from
Judge W. VI. Beckner, chairman OF the
Executive Committee, saying that the
would be postponed from the
4th TO the 25th, owing to several uniore-
seen reasons, one of them being the lie
lay in the completion of the Kentucky
Union road TO jackson, caused 10y the
away OF its bridge over the Ken /
lucky river. An excursion over the
road is to be a feature of the entertain /
ment, and so the meeting was postpon-
ed. II is Just as well, besides, rs Presi-
lent f. Polk Johnson expresses it, We

Kemmler, satisfied that he will not die

rives at the age OF TO. 1t is hoped that
the breach will widen and that no agree.
ment will be effected in the matter. The
pension laws are already too liberal and
too laxly construed.

TIE Legislative caucus to nominate a
democratic candidate for L. ;. Senator
did nothing the first night OF its meeting
except TO adopt the rules OF the House
for its government and resolve to pre-
vent an election until a nomination was
made. This was done in order to pre-.
clude a combination with the republican
members, who might hold the balance
of power. In order to carry ont this res
olution the members complimented va
rous and sundry people by voting for
them during the session OF the legisla-
ture. Among them We notice that our
neighboring countyman, Hon. Il. II.
Tomlinson, was credited with three votes,
hardly enough for any practical purpose,
but quite compliment all the same.
The next Eight the nomination Of candi-
dates was in order when the names OF
Gov. Knott, Judge LabanT Moore, Gov.
McCreary. Mr.. Carlisle, Judge Lindsay
and Evan Settle were presented in the
order named. Hon. r. c. Warren nom
mated Gov. McCreary in a speech which
was acknowledged to he very fine eff
fort. Senator Mulligan nominated Car
Isle and in doing so more than main
tanned his reputation as an eloquent ora.
tor. The speech of Mr.. Thomas, OF
Bourbon, nominating Judge Lindsay was
also very superior effort. Messrs.
Cooper and McChord nominated Gov.
Knott and did il very handsomely. The
names OF Gov. Buckner, Mckenzie and
Judge Reeves were not presented and
the hour being very late the caucus adj
jonrned by a vote OF 66 to 10, the Car
Isle men voting solidly to take a ballot
before adjourning.
Wednesday night there were four bal
lots taken, Carlisle starting with "a and
ending with 80; McCreary with 10, going
to ID and ending with j.. Lindsay start
ed with 70 and had % at the close; Knott
q to start with, but lost steadily and
ended with Ii: Moore had II on the last
ballot and Settle :. Gov. McCreary's ID
were Senator Anderson and Representa- !
tives Henslev, Long, Mathers, Rowlett,
Settle, w. B. Smith, Tomlinson, Warren,
WEIGH, Williams, Stephenson. After
the fourth ballot the caucus adjourned /
till last night and at the session yes
terday the members voted scattering, as
the day before.
1t begins to look now like Carlisle is a
dead sure winner. The balloting does
not show our candidate as strong as we
had counted. while Carlisle is gaining right
along While personally we should
like very much to see our excellent con-
gresham honored with the nomination,
we have naught but praise and good
will for the great champion OF tariff re-
form and if he is nominated We will re-
joice almost rs much as if our favorite
had won. Carlisle seems to be the
choice of the people now and their voice
is the voice OF God.
