GOV. .BRADLEY'S STATEMENT
HE DENIES HE FAYORED A STRAD-
DIE ON THE CURREEOY QUESTION.

He Believes That Sound Currency viii be
the Leading Issue of the Coming Cam
paign--He Had Recelyed No Word From
Mckinley on the Matter.
Frankfort, Ky, June 10.-For q week
Governor Bradley has been threatening
to give out a statement in reply to a re-
cent dispatch from Washington to the
effect that he had been originally in
favor of q compromising policy on the
financial question, but that he was in
duced by Governor Mckinley to make
the race for governor last fall on a gold
standard platform, and further that
Bradley had since negotiated with Nc
Kinley and other presidential candi-
dates.
The governor tonight gave out
statement in which he says: 1.-The
insinuation that l wrote favoring
a straddle on the currency question or
that Mckinley advised me not to pursue
such course or said that the silver
agitation was the result of hard times
just DIS lllG SIttlbiCh ClttHG w do lllC
result ot the panic of 1873 is totally
false.
He says: Il believe that sound cur
rency will be leading issue of the COM
ing campaign. The honor of the repub-
lican party and the welfare of the peo-
pie demand it's correct solution. 1t is
far above personal success or individual
advacemcnt and in this hour of supreme
trial the republican convention should
declare unhesitatingly in favor of the
single gold standard.
Success at the expense of the ma
tional welfare would be neither credit
able nor profitable. In justice to Nc
Kinley / will add that the statement in
to-day's Courier Journal that he wrote
me recommending the adopting of a
plank with a free silver tinge is not
true"
