TWO SPEECHES.
Hon. Jas. B. Garnett Woke the
Echoes Yesterday.
Followed BY rlr. o. A. Stanley
With Another Good DEM
ocratic Speech.

Hon. Jas. B. Garrett made a fine
Democratic speech at the Court
House yesterday afternoon at one
o'clock.
He is always a favorite here and
his appointment was looked for.
ward to with more than ordinary
interest in view of the fact that he
was strong Hardin man.
The Court House was well filled
with crowd representing all par
ties. Mr.. Garrett was not very
well, but he spoke for about an hour,
making a strong argument for the
support of the whole ticket. His
eloquence called forth much ap-
plause and enthusiasm and his APP
peal to Democrats did much to re-
move the little disaffection still re-
naming. Mr.. Garnett has been in
vited to speak at Pembroke and
will probably do so one night in the
near future.
Mr.. Owsley A. Stanley, of Hen
derson, arrived on the 2 o'clock
train and followed Mr.. Garnett with
a splendid speech. He too was a
Hardin man before the convention.
His speech was an earnest and
eloquent appeal to Democrats to
remain true to their party and re-
deem the state from Republican
misrule. Mr.. Stanley is a fluent
speaker, polished orator and a
young man of brains and fine
presence. His speech was a most
creditable effort.
Mr.. John Overmyer.
Hon. John Overmyer, of Columbus,
Ind, arrived yesterday afternoon
from Madisonville, where he spoke
to big crowd in the Tabernacle.
Hon. ]. N. Kehoe also spoke after
Mr.. Overmyer, and the Democrats
had an enthusiastic rally. At the
same hour L. p. Tanner and Geo.
A. Prentice spoke in the Court
House in the interestof the Brownie
ticket, to small crowd.
Mr.. Overmyer will speak at one
o clock this afternoon at the Court
House and we bespeak for him a
big crowd. He is a we'll posted and
able speaker and devotes himself
principally to national issues.
