calf, working 1t into the HAIR. A gang
of colts in the pasture scented salt and
got after the calf. They licked all the
hair off the calls back and tried to lick
the hide off, too. The farmer tried to
catch the calf and wash it off, but the
creature, thinking he wanted to lick
too, kept out of the way. The boy,

THE KENTUCKY ELECTION.
Calmness, Fairness, Honor,
Should Outweigh All
Else.

The result OF the Kentucky
election presents most serious
conditions, but We have an abid
ing faith that fairness and honesty
will prevail, for an immense ma
tority Of the people, Democrats
and Republicans alike. want moth.
Ing else. The State campaign has
been the most bitter in the bis;o.
~ of the State, and, therefore,
the way to reconciliation seems
the more difficult. To begin with,
an immense number Of Democrats
believe, and are thoroughly hon.
est In the belief, that the Repub'
licsns stole the State Of Kentucky
for Mckinley in 1896. This be.
lief led to the enactment OF what
is called the GOebel election law.
On the other hand, there are
thousands of Republicans and
many Democrats who, equally as
honest, believe that the Goebel
law was enacted by GoebeI and
others for the main purpose of
counting the Republicans out
Of stealing the State If necessary.
Unfortunately the vote in the
State ls very close. and each side
believing that the other is capa.
BILE and contemplating fraud and
robbery. The COURIER is of the
opinion that this great bitterness
and distrust pertains more ex.
clusively to the active politicians,
and that q great majority Of the
people want the election settled
fairly and honestly, no matter who
1t elects Governor. Who may be
Governor, is o small thing com.
pared to the honesty of the ballot.
That irregularities occurred in
the election, no one doubts; that
there was some fraud, some dis.
honesty. some corruption, we fear
10 true; but it 10, perhaps, bitter
ness to charge that such was all
on one side.
In Nelson county, 70 votes were
cast for WIN. 8. Taylor and 1l9S
for VIM. P. Taylor. The County
Com missioners give VIM. S. Tsy-
lor, the Republican nominee, only
the 70 votes, when IN all truth the
1893 denied him were intended IL
be cast for him. They say that
the law strictly forbids them being
given him, However this may be,
there should be some way 10 give
these 1898 votes to Taylor, for
they were honestly intended for
him.
On the other side, in Knox and
Johnson counties, il is said that
tissue ballots we're used, and that
IN one Louisville precinct 1877
more ballots we're counted than
there were voters In the precinct,
and that like frauds and wrongs
were perpetrated in other parts
Of the State which increased Tsy.

Outsiders cannot determine the
truth of such charges. But all
honest men can say, and should
cay for the proper officers, 10 dis
countenance wrong and fraud, no

in whose favor, and let the man
fairly elected be lnaugurated GOV
