story in effect that Governor Bradley of
Kentucky has joined the American Pro-
tective Association, and is the associa-
TONS candidate for President. The state
ment is confirmed by his presence at the
session of the Louisville American Pro-

the tickets then in the field. 1t indorsed
all of the Republican ticket with the ex-
ception OF Colonel Bradley. who was the
candidate for Governor on that ticket. In

was some dissension. Governor Bradley
was not indorsed because it was said that
some of his family were Catholics, and the
American Protective Association turned
toward Thomas Petit, the Populist can
didate.
dorsed, but for the fact that Bradley be-
came a member of the order.
Realizing that matters were in serious
condition, some of BradIey's friends re-
solved to have him join the order. On
the afternoon of September 27 last. Brad
lev spoke at SCOTS vile, in Allen County.
He was met at that place by John p.
FuItz Jr., County Attorney of Jefferson

this city in time for breakfast on the
morning of Saturday, september %. He
was initiated on that day, the oath being
administered by George II. Thomas.
Several days ago, the Courier-J Journal
adds, Governor Bradley received tele.
gram from the Supreme Advisory Board
of the American Protective Association in
Washington. The telegram, IL is said
told the Governor to be of good cheer and
not withdraw from the Presidential race.
The further information was conveyed
that the American Protective Association
would have majority in the Republican
