SOL[DIFIES THE PARTY.

H. r. Poultney, former mem
Der of the Kentucky legislature
says:
zone result of the appalling
tragedy in Kentucky will be the
reunion and qualification Of the
democratic party in the state.
Perhaps it is hardly the proper
thing to do to look for political
advantage in this unhappy
event, but it is a truth which will
soon manifest itself, if it has not
already. A spoiled egg thrown
at Senator Carlisle during the
campaign Of 1896 gave all but
one of the electoral votes Of Ken
lucky to William KcKinley, and
the leaden bullets fired at Sena-
tor Goebel will make the state
unquestionably democratic for
many years to come. Democrats
who had left the party or were
lukewarm in their support will
not ally themselves with a party
OF thugs and assassins who re-
sort to the pistol and the win
chester in lieu of argument
This conspiracy, for none
other do believe ii to be, will be
a powerful weapon in the hands
Of democratic campaign speakers
and, while | will not attribute TO
Governor Taylor any knowledge
Of the plot, yet 1t was unques-
tionably the work Of some Of his
henchmen. 1t 10 a disgrace to
the state and the abiding
citizens will not countenance it.
The mountaineer hoodlums Of
the Eleventh District hold human
life no more sacred than they do
the life Of the meanest beast.
Whether the real perpetrator Of
the crime is ever found and pun
ished or not is a question, but
the republican party will be Sc
yerely punished for the outrage"
