There is something in the New Con
stitution the News would like to have
stricken out for spell, and that is
the provision preventing Governor
from succeeding himself. John
Young Brown, in such an event, would,
Notwithstanding he might protest, be
compelled to succe-d himself. He
has been among the greatest and best
Governor that Kentucky ever had.
He has Fad enemies, and has them
yet, but how insignificant they appear
when his acts as Governor and theirs
as professors are taken into consider
tion. He has always been right and
the courts have 80 held. John Young
Brown is a statesman, lawyer, and
an honest constructionist of the con
stitution, which means, almost, at the
present day, an enemy Of the politi
cions.
