The bill offered in the State Senate
on re-districting the State as to the
Appellate districts, has been lost.
Judge Hollis friends claim this act on
the part of Democratic Senate is
favorable to their Republican candi-
date, and that he is sure to defeat the
Democratic nominee at Catlettsburg,
whoever he may be. One thing the
Democrats can depend upon--a hard
fight, but if they will stand shoulder
to shoulder, united on the best Demo
crat Of the district, Mr.. Holt will not
be Sitting" the next six years. Our
advice to the convention, however, is
to have no favorites as to personal
friendship, but to give us the best
equipped and most popular man, and
we will elect him. The robber tariff,
the Force Bill and all such infamous
depressing Republican measures will
not be tolerated by Democrats. Judge
Holt is representative of such
principles, and vote for him is an
Endorsement of Republican principles
and corruption in its multitudinous
forms.

A BIG LAW SUIT.
Filed by the GiIkey Heirs for Valu-
able Main Street Property.

A suit was filed yesterday in the
Montgomery Court of Common Pleas
by Ben. T. Gilkey, of Fulton, Mo-, and
Mrs. Maria Glover, of this city, for the
recovery of property ON the South side
of Main street, embracing the business
houses occupied by A. Baum 81 Son,
j. G. Enoch and John o. Miller, Hugo
Engel and Charles Lapel. There
will alsoebe suit filed within a day
or two by Ben. L. Gilkey for the re-
covery of property on the North side
OF the same street embracing the bust
ness houses occupied by j. B. White,
w. l. Morris and Howe & johnson.
The property sued tor is valued at
$4,000. This property, it is claimed,
came from Ben Stith to Elizabeth Gill
key his daughter, her husband, Charles
Gilkey, after his last marriage joined by
his then wife, Clementina Gilkey, in a
deed to his former wife's children for
this property, reserving to himself a
life estate in it. Later on, it is
claimed Mr.. Charles Gilkey sold the
property, in which he had only life
estate, hence the suit. j. j. Cornell
son is attorney for the plaintiffs.

In looking for campaign manager
Mr.. Harrison passed over shat bad

Clarkson, and selected that common
lobbyist" Campbell, who laid down on
him, after which that swindling book
agent Carter was called into service.
When Brother Harrison starts out to
find one good, pious, honest man in
the Republican party, he experiences
the same difficulty that Lot encountered
in Sodom and Diogenes and his lantern
met with in Athens. Hereafter, when
the Presiding Elder President yearns
for she sight of truly good and pious
man he will go to his looking-glass or
send for his Postmaster General.

Hon. E. B. Without, candidate for
the Democratic nomination for APP
pellate Judge of this district, writes to
"Hon. w. w. johnson member Carter
q and Elliott Counties" requesting him
to approve the bill introduced by
Senator Wall, of MaysYille, to take
seven Republican counties out of the
first district and place them in the Sec
ond. With all due respect to Mr..
Without we take the liberty OF saying
we think he is making an ass of him
self. Mr.. Wilhoit is very fearful lest
some good Republican shall be de-
pirved of vote for Appellate Judge
at the coming election, forgetting the
fact that the State will be redistricted
in 1894 and that it will be almost i'm
possible to buy off the State and leave
those seven counties with republican
majorities in their present district.
-'Ai' w AillOlN SSClHo W JuG
voters Of those counties a chance to do
their utmost to force a Republican
judge upon us, and then when they
are placed in another district two
years hence to be in position to do the
same thing for that other district.
No injustice will be worked these
counties by taking off and placing
them in the second district where they
most probably stay. AS far as the
people of this part of the district were
concerned we cared very little one
way or another about the proposed
change-the Democratic candidate is
going to beat Judge Holt any way
but as a matter of right we think those
fellows down there in the hot-bed of
Republicans in our district are not
entitled to two votes to our one if a
little palpably fast legislation will! pre-
vent it.

JAMES D. HAZELRIGG
The South's Peril.

The people of the entire country are
waking up on the force bill, and it
will undoubtedly figure as one of the
great issues of this campaign in the
North. In the South it ought to prove
the torch that will set the whole house
afire.
If the calm and sober judgment of a
majority of the people of this country
approves of the methods and princi-
pies of the bill which Mr.. Harrison
attempted to force upon his party and
to bulldoze through the United States
Senate, then the spirit of true liberty
is dead, and there will be little hope
for the perpetuity of free institutions
in this country.
There can be no lodging allowed on
this subject. Drive the Republicans
to say whether they be for or against.
A few bold men advocate, but the
rank and file and the conservative
men hesitate and doubt. 1t is the
most monstrous iniquity which. was
ever devised by any party or any set
men. and it would leave in the South
nothing but the merest farce in all
Federal elections. Returning boards
appointed by partisan judges will
count votes and declare the result.
They will be appointed to rob the peo-
pie of their rights, and their task will
be well performed.
No true man, no good citizen in the
South, will hesitate in using,every en-
ergy and every endeavor to crush this
enemy of the ballot and this foe to all
liberty from now on to November.
Every Democrat in the South should
lend his aid in the work of exposing
and destroying this dreadful wrong.
Once understood, there will be no diff
ficulty in saying how the South will
vote, and let every man of intelligence
and patriotism use all his power to
educate his neighbors and associates
as to the peril of his section under
this law, and TO the inevitable ruin
which awaits the people of the South
ern States if this bill once becomes a
law-Louisville Post.
Judge Holt, candidate for Judge of
the Court of Appeals, is a Republican,
part and parcel of that party which
expects perpetuation in power by
such methods as is prescribed by the
Force Bill, and, Notwithstanding this
has the audacity to ask Democrat a
white man, a believer in a free coun-
try and a free ballot, to vote for him.
This nefarious measure would be
worse than slavery. Freedom of
thought would be crushed, and Re-
publican principles and methods
would be fastened upon an oppressed
people time without limit.

The fact that the Republicans will
have no convention to select a candi
date for Judge of the Court of Appeals
is proof of their Endorsement of Judge
Holt. Whether it be publicly resolved
or not, this act on the part of the
party is more probably a suggestion OF
to His Honor, Judge Holt, that he
may say to the unsuspccting, the of
fee of Judge of the Court of Appeals
is non-partisan, and that he has lost but
one day and hence he should be re-
elected. An Endorsement is virtually a
nomination. Republicans to man
will vote for Judge Holt and by not
appearing Republican he hopes to
catch few weakened Democrats.
No Democrat will be misled by the
wiley Mr.. Holt. If Judge Holt in
dorses the Republican platform, and
that is what he does when he votes
for President Harrison, he is for the
passage of the Force bill, the most in
famous measure ever introduced in
the United States Senate. 1t is bill
against the rights and privileges of
free men,a billendorsed by the Repub-
licans, yet one they dare not discuss.
1t is the crushing of freedom of
thought and purpose, measure by
which Republicans are to be contin-
ued in power and privileged by their
combines to force labor rates and |
name the price of production bene-
fitting the few and expressing the
masses. Mr.. Holt is a member of this
party.
Wages remains the same while liv-
ing expense increases. Mr.. Hollis
party legislates in favor of this kind,
and he asks to be promoted, to office
by the oppressed of his party aided by
the Democrats.
But this is not all, Judge Holt has
voted for negro instead of white
man. He has never repented of this
conduct, hence we conclude he still
prefers negro Republican admins
tration in preference the white mans,
the Democratic administration. Judge
Holt cannot carry the dead weight
with which he is burdened and again
land himselfinto the Court of Appeals.
White men will vote for their color
in principle and race.
Judge Holt and the Republican
Force Bill and Kentucky negro prefer
ence party stand together. His apollo
gist, the Gazette, is on the same plat
form with him and his party, sup
porter of negro administration
against the white man,it stands square
ly by the Force Bill and the Robber
