GEN. WATTERsoN we salute you
Your editorials for the democratic
ticket for the last several days have
been models OF convincing arguments
and in every way worthy OF the man
who has in DAYS gone by done so much
for the cause OF democracy. After
comparing Goebel to Andy johnson and
that he has that direct and incisive cast
Of mind, Johnson s sympathy with the
lowly and the poor among the people:
and the faculty, which johnson had, of
drawing upon himself the detestation
and distrust of the aristocratic and the
rich, Mr. Watterson adds: 1.-THE elite
of Main Street do not like Mr.. Goebel
any better than the elite of Tennessee
liked Andrew johnson. Naturally the
board OF trade, being semi-republi-
can side-show, holds him in holy hor-
ror. But nothing can defeat his cleo
tion. He is going TO be our next gov
ernor; and we predict that he will dis
appoint the forebodings and battle the
representations OF those who are so
ready and eager to prophesy evil
against him." Then commencing with
the accomplished and able Breckin-
ridge, the great editor pays each of the
men composing the democratic ticSet,
the highest praise and says no Ken
tuckian can look at the list without
feeling OF pride. There is no odor of
republication about it and no sicken-
ng smell of railroad grease. Finally |
In his own convincing way Mr.. Waiter.
son urges democrats 10 support the
ticket and save the State another re
publican administration. They are dead
sure TO do il too and Mr.. Goebel's GO
ing TO be the next governor AS sure the
sun will rise on the day set apart for
the inauguration.

THE last week Of the campaign finds
the democracy 10 the best Of fighting
trim and eager for The final fray. We
have never seen true democrats so en-
thusiastic and determined as now and
II Taylor and his motley crew are not

confidence that every democrat will be

bel and his superb ticket the old time

seal OF condemnation on boilers and

and all will be we'll.

In an interview Senator John Sher,
man, OF Ohio, says that Mckinley i
policy Of Imperialism is abhorrent to
those who love liberty, and while he
should hate to see him defeated, he
feels confident he will be. He also
takes a whack at Nash, the republican
candidate for governor of Ohio, and
says he is weighted down with Hanna.
Towards Foraker he was very bitter,
saying he had no honor financially or
otherwise. As Sherman is the father
Of Ohio republicanism his words are
omnibus, and the Enquirer Is using
them for all they are worth.

siastically cheered all along the line and

SOME of the dirty, lying republicans
are telling the Germans and those who
do not know any better, that II Goebel
is elected no man can vote thereafter
unless be is worth $500 and can show a
receipt for his taxes ami If he can not
read or write he will be entirely dis
franchised. OF course men, who are
posted, will not be deceived by such a
lie, and it is with those who are not,
that the lying brutes get In their work.

WHILE democrats will mark under
tue rooster a. shown on this page,
thereby voting for the whole demo-
cratic ticket, making it useless for US
to appeal for the support OF any special
candidate, we want to urge the impor-
lance of the election Of Hon. G. c. Me-
Chord for railroad commissioner. He
has served most satisfactorily in that
capacity and he is the author of the
bill, whose passage is promised in the
democratic platform. Everybody, dem
ocrat or republican, who wants check
put on the rapacity of the railroads
should see that his vote is cast for Nc
Chord, who is eminently fitted to per-
form the duties that the bill imposes
fairly TO the railroads and the people.
