FIGHTING FOR SH VER.s

The democratic rupture in Kentucky
has stunned such proportions that the
defeat of the party seems inevitable,
There is no question as to the victory
scored by the gold wing of that party in
the forced nomination of Goebel for gov
ernor. AS the product of a convention in
which the thirst for office led to the vere,
of b~loodshed, and conduct that was un-
becoming to a deliberative body Of gen
tlemen. Goebel has found his trail COW
cred by the avenging Nemesis of party
discomfort.
Though Mr.. w. J. Bryan counselled his
friends in Kentucky to stand by the
nominee Of the convention, as the only
way to insure that state to the Demos
cracy in 1900, they refused to take his adj
vice. If the late standard-bearer of the
silver democracy is willing to cdmpros
mise with democratic g%oldbugs, who hap

v%ention, his silver friends in Kentucky

Yesterday seven hundred prominent sill
Yer democrats convened at Lexington,
and are still in session today, debating
the proposition as to whether they should
nominate a full state ticket or only can
didates for governor and lieutenant gov
ernor. According to the Associated Press
reports the drift of opinion is toward
placing a full ticket in the field as the
most effective way Of rebuking the gold
wing Of their party.
1t begins to look like the old fight Of
1896 over again in that state, and the out
look for the republican nominees is daily
growing brighter. 1t is really too bad
that the struggling silver democrats of
the blue grass state can get no encour-
agement from Mr.. Bryan in their effort to
preserve the faith and uphold the cause,
and that no sympathetic chord vibrates in
their behalf in the democracy of Mon

Gratis of Maryland have no use for free
