THE Tommy rot printed by the anti
Goebe and republican papers which
claim that Goebel stands ready TO knife
Bryan and turn Kentucky's vote over
to some other candidate for president,
is very effectively denied by Mr.. Goe-
bel himself In the Cincinnati Enquirer.
He says that he has made IS speeches
for Bryan and will make 10 more be-
fore the National convention, advocat-
ing his nomination Said he: "Mr Bry-
an is as much the nominee of the Ken
lucky democratic convention as | am.
In fact, | believe he got a few more
votes than did. There was not one
dissenting voice where he was concern
ed, and In my case the result was for
time believed to be 10 doubt. Mr.. Bry-
an received the unanimous endorse
ment OF the convention for president.
Unless | was honestly, earnestly and
uualteral ly in favor of MIR. Bryan for
president, there would be but one thing
for me to do-resign the nomination for
governor. | don't expect to do that.
expect TO be elected in 1899 and | ex-
pect to see Mr.. Bryan elected in 1900"
Referring further to the charge that If
Goebel Is elected Blackburn will go
down, Mr.. Goebel said; 81 have the
highest regard and warmest personal
friendship for Senator Blackburn. He
knows it. He knows and / know that
IL the ticket is defeated this year, the
Legislative ticket goes with it, and
Blackburn's successor will be repub-
lican. To return to my argument con-
corning Mr.. Bryan, Senator Blackburn
is as much the nominee Of the Louis
vile convention as am. say TO you
with perfect candor, that II the issues
were separate, should be perfectly
willing to be defeated myself il the sac
riice would give the democratic party |
control Of the Legislature and return |
Blackburn to the Senate" Mr.. Goe-
bel added that he was sure the State
ticket would be elected by fully 5000 !
majority and that the campaign would
be practically the opening gun for Bry-
an. The great solicitude shown bv the
Louisville Post and Dispatch for Bryan
and the fear chat seems to haunt their
dreams that Goebel will knife both him
and Blackburn are for the purpose of
fooling the unwary and to make capi-
tai with the friends of the two leaders,
who are not on to the WAYS that are
dark and the tricks that are vain of
those disreputable sheets.

For some time past, there has been q
growing suspicion that all was not a'
well in the Philippines as Gen. Otis
rosy cablegrams daily indicated and the
belief grew that he was taking the
people in his effort to appear the right
man in the right place. These suspi-
cions have been fully confirmed by the
newspaper correspondents at Manila,
who presented the general with writ
ten protest against the strict censor
ship of press reports, asking to be al
lowed to cable their papers the exact
facts. The correspondents declare That
the situation in the Philippines has
been misrepresented In the official dis
patches and that the censorship OF their
own dispatches has compelled them TO
participate in the misrepresentation
Their statement was mailed to Hong
Kong and there cabled to the United
States, but the authorities at Washing

that contempt that silence indicates.
Meantime the London papers are full of
