THE ELECTION COMMISSIONERS NAMED.

FRANKFoRT, Ky, March IA The
Breckenridge Senatorial district sent a
Republican TO represent it, but in all
fairness he has made friends by his
kind treatment OF everybody he came in
contact with and by his seeming devo-
ton to the interests of his constituents
at all time. have not much love for a
Republican, from a real political stand
point, but when l See good man who
is unfortunate enough to march under
the bloody shirt and high protection
banner, am at least honest enough to
accord honor to whom honor is due.
County Attorney r N Miller, OF
Breckenridge, was in town last week,
the gueet OF Senator Jolly He came to
see the sights, watch the Lawmakers and
put in some good work among the
Republicans in his race for the nomina
ton for Attorney General In securing
the support of "Bob"' Jolly, he, Mr..
Miller has won decided advantage to
start on, for the Irvington miller stands
we'll with his high-tariff- McKinl, y

in some sort of unns cessary fsctional
squabble just about the time they sh nd
present an unbroken front to the enemy.
So it is now, the Goebel bill hsvii SET
when unity of purpose seemed TO have
been e.. ed upon. l hope these bicker-

will win signal victory iu.tbe ne xt state
election, but the Democrats who oppos-
the "force bin" are in no humor to
tolerate bossim, and there must be no
lavish display of it before the campaign
closes or 1t will prove haven for the
i'll OF the party.
The caucus to nominate the three
election commissioners provided for
under the Goebel election law, has been
called to meet tonight Monday at
