IObDeFS and CflmlndlSI Are you gong to appeal to the youth of Kentucky to forget all the precept5 that loving mothers and Christian fathers have taught them of love for truth and jus tice and all that lays at the foundation of an honorable public life and teach them that only thieFeTy. tTickery and robbery can win in Kentucky politics. Will you teach them now that in their @Ofd Kentucky Home the shreWdest | aest man? Oh, my ven ef my honest old friend, how meet your boy, look into his bti eye5 and expect to maintain his re if you tell him that the Demoe tte nominee had committed acts tEat you knew were frauds, that you knew were dishonest and unfair but that you had gone to the polls and cast the highest evidence of your eiti- zenship for that candidate because the party lash had cracked, and you didn't have the manhood to resist
 Oh, men of Kentucky. I do appeal to you by all that you hold dear on earth. by all the love you hold for those brave, bright boys. l appeal to you not to do this uncIean thing Bury this ticket beneath 000 majority, and over the Intel of every Kentucky home you write the words, truth, honor, manl1ness. and you teach A#si~A3 ' Ah1A9G1AS BOy Iudl IL He UODG6 10 Win IauEels from kentacky.s people he must tread the highways of truth and keep the company of his seIf-re- speet.
 have shown you where you can get a chance 10 vote for an honest Demo- cfaG II you have any ambition in that line
 But they say That Brown is the tool or the Louisville and Nashville rail- a ,e AI, song they are singing all over Ken lucky. At every erossroad and every country schoolhouse some little four by-siX Would-be orator is crying out
 l.. & N. l.. G N, when all that he knows about the l.. &s N. has been learned from reading the pass he has been riding on for years.
 Gentlemen, need 1 recall to intelli- gent hearers the one darling scheme of the Louisville and Nashville rail- road in Kentucky? What was this pet scheme, more to it than all other schemes 1t has ever had in view since Its organization? You know it was the purchase of what is now the Hi nois Central, and it's consolidation with the Louisville and Nashville sys- tenn, thus shutting out all competition Tor the trade and travel of southern hentucky Who stood between the L. < N. and the carrying out of that plan?
 Need I tell you that when that scheme was laid you had man in the governors chair who was not to be in Hueneed by pa1try or personal eonsid- erations, who stood like a wall of stone between the road and the Deo- pie? That John Young Brown as gov ernof of Kentucky prevented the con solidation of those roads and gave to the people of Kentucky competition for all the great trade to the south? :? And yet they try to make the people of Kentucky believe that John Young Brown is tool of the Louisville and Nashville railroad, and that Mr. Goa- pei IS the only savior Of the people in Kentucky the enemy of eofDor8tions anu the unfaltering friend of the peo- pie.
 Let me call your attention to the loving service that Goebel has ren- dered to the people as against corpo- fatl0HS. He has made some feDuta- ton by the prosecution of damage suits for personal injuries. Whatever reputation he has as a lawyer has grown out of that Any lawyer will telI you that 1t IS the easiest practice in the world
 MT. GUebel has made a speciality of that sort of work. 1t is said in his own town that he keeps runners sta toned around the different railroad crossings and that when a man is in Jured he has him picked LID and car fIed 10 Goebel#s s office, where he signs a contract for Goebel to bring suit against the railroad company and to get for his services from 50 to 65 per cent Of the amount he may recover. while the poor devil who bar lost an arm or a reg goes off with s per cent. 
 GoebeIs Legal Record.
 Now take the records of the Ken lucky legislature and the Kentucky constitutional convention and find Ind some place where MT Goebel has taken an interest in railroad legisla- ton. In every instance you will find that it was legislation that tended to increase the number of damage suits for personal injuries, and wherever you find Goebel appearing as the champion of the people look closely and you will find it is 65 per cent for Goebel and 35 per cent for you and your children.
 On every stump he boasts of services rendered to the Democratic party and the chiefest of all is that while he was speaker pro tenn of the state senate a bill came before that body which he thought was injurious to the interests or the Democratic party, and although majority of the senators favored its passage. that as presiding officer of that body for eight days he refused to allow any vote to be taken except a motion to adjourn. I need not tell you that the position of speaker pro tenn Of the senate is an office of trust, that man accepting it must take a solemn oath to discharge that duty fairly and impartially. and I under take to say that Mr. Goehel is the first man in the history of our state that ever sought the support of the people by pleading his own perjury
 l have no time to tell you of this mans endless treachery and scheming. to tell you of his professed loyalty to free silver rendering as his proof his
