The outlook I'm Kentucky.

The outlook in Kentucky for the cleo
ernOr is not as promising as the demo
Gratis would like to have It. The demo.
cratic managers Of the campaign are do
ing what they can to get the democrats
to support the ticket, but however earn
est their efforts may be. it 10 regarded as
certain that there are many thousands
OF democrats who will not vote for Gen.
Hardin unless he openly announces his
willingness to accept the Interpretation
Of the platform that was given it by the
convention that nominated him.
The silverites are appiauding Gen.
Hardin for the stand he IS taking for
free silver coinage. and for refusing 70
abide by the action Of the convention on
the silver question. They say that as
an honest man he cannot suppress his
convictions. He ought to have thought
about his convictions before he accepted
the nomination, because. when he con-
scented to be the party's gubernatorial
candidate. he virtually agreed that he
would conduct his campaign in accord
ancc with the wishes Of his party.
The majority Of the democrats in Ken
lucky are in favor of sound money. That
statement cannot be questioned in face
Of the fact that the state democratic
convention adopted a sound money plat
form by an overwhelming majority. Does
Gen. Hardin think the party is any less
tenacious of its convictions than he is
of his? The Courier-Journal. speaking
on this point, asks the question: If
Gen Hardin cannot without the loss of
his self respect modify his views so as
TO meet the demands of a platform
adopted upon a square issue how can
he or his friends expect those whose po-
sition was indicated by the adoption of
that platform to stultify themselves by
yielding the very point decided by the
convention
Gen. Hardin will find that he will have
to yield his convictions or lose a large
portion of the votes of his party. His
party has acted very squarely with him.
Can he say that he has acted squarely
with his party? He was under no obli-
cations to announce his adherence to the
Is to l idea. He could have let the silver
question alone without appreciable loss
of self respect. There was less reason for
his losing his self respect in letting that
question alone than there was in an
nouncing his adherence to the 16 to /
