The Other Side

Parties from this city who visited

display was a wonder aud none of them
dony that the parade was grand from
its proportions. One young lady said
that the crowd was the worst that ever
assembled, ladies were insulted by the

Market street and by night the tough
element became so unruly that even

The Democracy has got ten itself in bad plight by allow ing itself to be vietimized by a po- litieal adventurer like Goebel, and there isn't much hope of success #un- less he is made to withdraw and some one who has the confidence of the people is substituted for him.

HOW A FILIPINO DIES.
Usually Stretches Himself Out and Meets
 His Death Easily.

HIS OBAbU EASILY
 The general, in a white hat, was marching in advance of the firing line. when the discharge of a rife was heard in the yard of a house next to the road. Several soldiers rushed into the yard. but not in time to prevent two more shots, which came whizzing in the di- rection of the general. At this moment l came to break in the hedge, where I could see what was going on. A young Filipino was about thirty yards off. He was turning this way and that like an animal at bay, thoroughly fright ened. He had a rife in his hand. It afterward turned out that this ride was choked. The soldiers were break. ing down the high hedge to get in, Suddenly the Filipino made a run for life. He got through the hedge some way and dashed across an open lot. Three shots followed, all of which took effect The wounded man turned. ran sideways few paees, lay down on the ground, and second after was dead. got good sight of the whole incident, and so naturally did the Fiji. lpino stretch himself along the ground and rest his head upon his arm that thought he was shaElming. An exam nation minute later proved that he was dead. There is this difference be- tween the manner in which American and Filipino soldiers die--the Ameri- can falls in heap and dies hard; the Filipino stretches himself out, and when dead Is always found in some easy attitude, generally with his head on his arms. They die the way a wild animal dies-in just such a position aa one finds a deer or an antelope which one was shot in the wood.--H HarpAr's Weekly.

THE KENTUCKY SITUATION.

The Hon. Charles J. Bronston of Lexington has given the Kentucky political situation another shock. In a general way. no doubt. the public has kept up with this cat fight. Goebel, who secured control of the Louisyllle convention by swindling one of the gubernatoral candidates aud having 300 Louis vile policemen at his beck "to pre- serve order" was not by sny means satisfactory to the Democracy of Kentucky; but after the deed was done Bronston and others who mad fought Goebel announced that they would support the ticket. While Bronston was in Europe the Brown movement was started and resulted in the putting out of a protesting ticket. Q lite a number of Demo- cratic leaders, ex-congressmen, ard especially free silver men, have ral lied to the support of exGov. Brown until very formidable revolt has been organized.
 It has been the popular impression that Goebel was Q goldbug up to the time of the national Democratic convention in 1896, and that his conversion to silver was only skin deep aud was caused by expediency rather than conviction. It will De recalled that early in 1896 there was a long senatorial contest in Ken lucky which resulted in the defeat of Joe Blackburn. Goebel support ed Black burn, but was regarded as a goldbug. Recently the charge has been made that Goebel after the senatorial fight went to Washington to consult with John 0. Carlisle for the purpose of securing a gold dele <gation from Kentucky to the nation al convention. Mr. Carlisle himself, in reply to inquiries, stated that this was fact. Whereupon Goeb9l pronounced the whole thing lie.
 This brought out letter from Mir. Carlisle, iu which he gave all the details of the conference, which had beed arranged by Mr. W. B. Haldemau Of the Courier-Journal, gold man, DOW the most active supporter of Geobel in the State. Mir. Carlisle is not in particularly good odor with free silver men, but he clinches bis statements by pub. fishing letter from Goebel to him. self showing that he had received valuable political assistance from Carlisle for the purpose of securing a gold delegation from Kentucky. Goebel has recently been claiming that it was through his instrument. ality that the Kentucky delegation instructed for the free coinage of silver; but his letter to Carlisle shows that he was scheming to se- cure gold delegation.
 It is this exposure of Goebel that has caused the indignant outburst
