declaration applied to him would
indicate that he is typical Re

it convey the idea that they will

,scrupulous methods of enemies tc
Democracy, but we are dumb
founded when we hear men who
have been associated with Demo
Gratis say they are for Brown Oh
Taylor.

That great big Republican baby
who is supposed to represent the
great State of Kentucky in the
United States Senate has been
making threats that if Goebel
wins, blood will fall from the
clouds and completely immerse
the whole Of the Democratic par
ty. We have been looking for
a cloud-burst for some time, so
shall seek shelter under the pro-
tecting wing ofsome poor, discon-
ISOLATE Republican brother on that
day and let the big sweat drops
that fall from his manly" brow
immerse us instead.

Shall another Republican be
sent from Kentucky to the u. S.
Senate there to remain six years
to aid in creating laws in the inter-
ests Of trusts or shall we put in a
Democrat who is opposed to these
combines, which are to the disad-
vantage Of the wage Garner.

1t is reported that the women
of Kentucky will be called on to
appeal to the voters to elevate to
position of trust only men of the
best moral character. To this we
would not object. For we know
they would direct the voters to
the Democratic party, while Hon.
w. c. P, Breckenridge sweetly
pleads that they cast their votes
with the Brownies.
