of its honor, when its min
lister and amba ssador was beleaguered,
the finest triumph of diplomacy of the
nineteenth century won in the conces-
sion of the open door; the most pictures
que campaign of history or romance is
ended with the American flag flying over
the imperial palace in Peking.
Not only the United States but every
civilized and semi-civilized country of the
globe is today giving unstinted admira-
tion to the craftsmanship, the general |
ship and the diplomacy of William Nc

There is nothing which Col. Bryan can

ship of the things. taught in the declara- |
tion of independence that has not been |
more brilliantly said and actually done |
iby Republican statesmen. But when Col. |
Bryan went to Kentucky at the time
when. under the infamous election law,
the State was to be stolen by his friends
from the offices who had been lawfully
returned as elected by the Democratic
returning board and gave his sanction
and the weight of his great authority as

was his idea of consent of the governed"
| Mr. Depew closed with the statement
that the Republican ticket in this State
would be greatly strengthened by the
nomination for lieutenant governor Of
Timothy l.. Woodruff, who, he said, rep
resented in it's best sense the business
man in politics and who meets all the
requirements of the ever-dscussed ques-
ton in the colleges of the educated man
in politics."
Mr.. OdelI in accepting the nomination,
said in part:
Important as the State issues are,
they are overshadowed by the greater
matters involved in the national cam
paigu. To my mind the paramount issue
is the reelection of Mckinley who has
so ably kept all pledges. Re-elect him
and the policies already in force and &c
r he inaugurated will place us upon high
r er plane than ever before and We shall
q enjoy the full fruition of our hope fol-
general prosperity. Every dollar of OBJ
; legation will continue to be worth one
) hundred cents and wherever our fat
/ floats ii will be respected.
