to Akron Friday from Cleveland,
and was tried and sentenced to life

N. |. HOPKINS
Nominated By the Republicans for
Congress.
Gratis.

The Hon. N. l. Hopkins, of Pike
county, was nominated for Con-
gress by the Republicans in con
vention at Irvine ON last Thursday
A hard fight was made against the
"Parson" but to no avail. 1t took
% ballots to decide the contest. In
Hopkins the Democrats have an
'easy thing" and White will be
elected by the largest majority ever
given in the district. Hon. A. L.
Wood, of this city, put ip nomina-
tion the Hon. w. M. Beckner, of
Clark county, an ex-Democrat, who
showed considerable strength on
the first ballot, receiving II votes,
within thirteen of the number re-
quired to nominate. 1t is now in
order for the Judge to flop over to
some other party-possibly the
Prohibitionist or Populist
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1900-08-28
FOR GOVERNOR.

The Hon. John w. Yerkes,
the very best man Kentucky Re
publicans have in their number,
will soon be ready for speech-mak-
ing. His speech has been made
up, and after going over it, adding
a little to and taking some from,
the document will be ready to be
delivered in that beautiful, yet
forceful, way, its makeup and
profound thoughts would merit.
Oh, certainly he will talk Of liber-
ty-a Republican talking Of liber-
ty; don't such thing make you
laugh2 They are the lovers Of
liberty, but they would have its
application within their own
camps. That is, they would have
the few to have the liberty to boss
the money. He will talk much
about Usurper Taylor; he will tell
of his mistreatment, that an exile
he is from home, and here he will
become very pathetic, for you
know pathos knocks some times;
of the trial at Georgetown he will
make great to do, Powers is a
much prosecuted man, and SO on.
He will tell about the great pros
perity under the Mckinley admin
istration, and never a time will he
be able to see the cause of the
prosperity, only that Republicans
were in power, and it came.
Yerkes is going to have very
readable and taking speech, and
the Democrats will be asked to
come in and help them turn the
Democrats out This will be in
bad taste, because if they expect a
mix-up in this matter there should
have been some Democrats for
pie. But no, that wouldn't do,
for Democrats can not be trusted.
Their votes is just enough; if they
don't vote as wanted, they will
get a good sound kicking.
There is also much explaining,
for indeed every act OF Taylor has
been endorsed by the rallies of
the Republican party, and these
acts must needs be explained.
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1900-08-28
Gov. Beckham.

One of the Leader men who has
been into the famed Bluegrass Re-
gion for a week past has returned
to Fulton. In all that land of beau
tiful fields, of limestone brooks, of
rolling meadows, brave men and
angelic women-one character, one
man, was indelibly impressed upon
him. He comes back to his work
as an humble Democrat fighting in
the ranks, to say that the brilliant
young Governor, John Cripps Wick
life Beckham, isl truly the man of
the hour. Personally Gov. Beck
ham is very lovable man. There
is the charm of a man with full
generous heart, of life full of vi
'gor and animation in .him--the
heart which reaches out and clasps
the hearts of other men in liberal
andi friendly affection, which
draws even his enemies to him, is
indeed in truth the fountain of
magnetism. The Governor has that
magnetism, that heartiness, that
sincerity and truth, which BELTS
him by choice of Kentucky Demo-
cracy, by Providence and by naturs
al and phenomenal ability to be o
great leader.
Kentucky Democracy need not
fear that its standard has been
placed in the hands of such a
leader. Gov. Beckham's actions
as Chief Executive have establish
ed him fully as wise, courageous
and manly leader. He has made
no mistakes. He will lead the
most brilliant campaign Kentucky
Democracy ever knew-and he will
lead us to victory, for he is man
of the people. His administration
has been so fair, so just, so able
that it is the best campaign argu-
ment Kentucky Democrats can use.
He has surprised and confounded
his most Jealous and rabid enem-
les. His administration is indeed
and in truth the heaviest and
strongest argument for his election.
Kentucky is proud of its great
Young Governor. Fulton Leader.
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1900-08-28
l TOLD YOU so.

In 1896 we told our friends OF
the Argus-eyed money faction;
that the Republicans had the same
use for them as they did for the
negro. They have held in politi-
cal slavery for more than thirty
years, thirty votes, nothing more.
That they would be afraid to trust
them, having left party which
promises to lift the great common
people from the oppression heap.
ed upon them by the few, that
party which they we're giving aid.
Well, this very statement was
verified in the Irvine Republican
convention a few days ago. A
single standard Democrats name
was presented to that convention.
The mere mention Of which, it is
said, set that body wild. Judge
w. M. Beckner seemed to have
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1900-08-28

the convention in his clinch, but
his name was hardly presented un-
til it was withdrawn, and we heard
Republican say, "While he is the
best equipped man in the district
he is too much of a Democrat to
be trusted by Republicans, for the
money question is not the only
one at issue. Disaffected Demo
Gratis are wanted by the Republi-
cans only for what help they can
give to the party. There is moth
ing in it for anybody else. We
prefer old "Parson" Hopkins as
green as gourd in a rank weed
patch, who is an answering Rep
ublican, to Hon. w. H. Beckner,
clean man morally, a brilliant
man, one of experience and great
powers, an untiring worker-be-
cause, while not strictly in line, he
is Democrat.
This is the voice of Republicans
and this is the way it will ever be
Democrats have had enough OF
Republicans, and they are now at
home to stay.
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1900-08-28
THAT SUITS us.

Japan, Germany and Russia are
reported to have declared war
against China and invited England
and America to stay out Of the
fray. Three to one appears to be
enough to settle China, Pigtail and
rat hash and we are content for it
to be that way. For the present
the United States has about all it
can chew.

Civilization.

The following is food for thought
from a speech of W. j. Bryan;

tion should mean. | want to see

that we Democrats are enemies of

II do not want a civilization that
