Appellate Judge Hazelrigg says; Il
do not see that there is any disatisiae-
tion with the democratic State ticket
out of the ordinary. There Is always
some soreness after State convention,
but this always heals up before the

IL ia astonishing TO note the number
of wouli-be reformers that have sprung
nm as a result OF the nomination OF Mr..
Goebel. Newspapers that have advo-
Gated every kind of political chicanery
so long AS their personal views were IN
the ascendancy, now turn up their 1T
tie noses in holy wrath, and all because
Mr.. Goebel had the brains TO beat har-
din and Stone at their own game

Mr.. George Cogar, OF Danvilie' toid
the Cincinnati Enquirer There Is no
disaffection among the democrats OF
our county, that am aware OF. and we
are all pleased with the domination
OF Judge Robert j. Breckinridge'
which came, as we know, from the
hands of Senator Goebel. l was not
for Goebel individually, but the more l
hear of him since his nomination the
better | like him, and that Is the way
of most OF us who were opposed to him
aud knew him only through the cam
paign ISLANDERS that were heaped upon
him without stint"
A long ways the most respectable
and the cream OF the republican party
did not honor the so-called convention
AZ Lexington with their presence. In
addition TO Gov. Bradley, these are
some who we're conspicuous by their
absence: Gen. f. II. Hobson, Hon.
Augustus e. Wilson, ex-Congressman
John w. Lewis, 1t. Gov. w. J. Worth
ington, Len j. Crawford. DIR. William
Turner. ex-Congressmau N. I Hop

those who attended only as spectators
were Judge Thomas u. Morrow, OF

There are not many republicans OF
large caliber in Kentucky, but there
are hundreds bigger than Mr.. Tayior'
who was shovelled on to the republican
ticket four years ago at a time when 1t
WAS considered a thankless nomination
and who has shown during his admin
istration Of his Office since, no guam p
cation for the governorship. he mas
been nominated solely because he Is
not bigger man, because he Is oil the
stripe of politician he Is ana oecauso
those who used their national olhces 10
nut him on the ticket know MIN anu
wantthat order of modiocrity. The
nlain truth is that the republicans OF
the State have thrown away their only
chance for respectable showing a'the
coming elections. Their one oppor'un-
ity TO make capital Of democratic an
ferences and TO make an issue aga'ns'
the election law was to brush aside the
