Gov. Bradley: Yes.
A voice And Bill Owens.
Gov Gradley: And my friend Bill
Owens, and a good man he is. You
talk about the abuse that is heaped up
on the republican party OF this State,
they have been abused for every thing
on earth that was mean and that men
could lay their tongue to. Even the
other day, as l am told, there appeared
In an Eastern paper a picture of that
good man, John s. Sweeney. There is a
man who for more than thirty years has
preached the word of his Master oyer

beloved minister OF the Christian church,
and yet they have published his picture
in newspaper and charged that he was
present at crowd of men in which it
was agreed that Senator Goebel should
be murdered. say that hell is not half
hot enough for such people.
But my friends do not desire to de.
tain you. There are others here to speak,
others who are entitled to be heard, but
/ want to say one thing, however, to the
Republicans Of Kentucky. II there be
one Of you who is Departing, hold up
your head and be man. In the vocab-
ulary of that great party there is no
such word as fail. We will carry this
State this fall by majority Of 10000 and
IL will be counted. My friends, l want
every man to go away from this conven.
ton with determination to do his duty
by his party and by his country. Let
every one Of us 60 away from here feel
ng that 1t was good that we met here.
Let us 20 away with renewed life and
vigor and zeal to fight the battle Of free
dom. They cannot beat us.

CONFIDENCE IN THE
SUPREME COURT.

A voice: "a very live corpse"
Gov. Bradley: The Republican party
will never die as long as liberty has a
votary or freedom OF men. 1t came into
existence in the cause OF liberty. 1t has
fought the great battles OF liberty. 1t is
strong now in the State OF Kentucky.
There was time in my young manhood
when first entered politics that we had
in this state Of ours only 80, 900 votes, but
now we have polled as many as 277,O00.
and have no doubt on Gods earth that
Gov Taylor at the last election polled
that many, or nearly that many votes.
Toe arrangement was made to count him
out-the arrangement was made to de-
fraud the people and to corrupt the bal.
lot box, but even with all that they
could not beat him, and then, when
they could not beat him, they deliber-
ately stole the Office. But, my friend,
mark my word for it, they won't keep
the Office they stole. 1 have no infor-
nation as to how the Supreme Court
will decide this case. That court does
not tell what it is going to do.
(Applause.) But my friends, 1 have
confidence in an overwhelming Provi-
dence l have confidence In the right,
and have confidence in the honor, JUS
tice, manhood and ability of every Judge
who sits upon that magnificent bench.
II these things can 90 on in the State, If
there is no power in this nation that can
stay the hand of the robber, then
think instead OF taking up our time to
try to do something in the Philippines
we had better hire a few missionaries,
call them in from foreign lands, and see
what we can do here at home. My
friends, it may be that Kentucky stands
to-day in shame. 1t may be that today
the clouds are dark. 1t may be that her
light is hidden, but as sure as there is a
God who reigns over this world, just so
sure shall her manscles fall and she
shall stand forth redeemed, regenerate
and disenthalled. Well did Gov. Tay.
lor say, "Let the holy war 60 on" for it
is holy war. When you are struggling
to maintain your freedom, when you are
struggling for liberty, when you are
struggling to maintain those things
which were bought by the blood of your
fathers and sanctifed by the prayers Of
your mothers, you are indeed engaged
in holy war. Let not man be found
who will tamely or IDLY surrender his
manhood. Let us stand forth for free
elections, for an honest election, and let
us call to our assistance those magnif-
cent Democrats who have so bravely
stood by us in all this great struggle that
we have made. No Republican and
no man who loves liberty should ever
forget such men as Breckenridge, Yost,
Knott, Stewart, Sweeney and host of
othes.
Voices: And Buokner.
The Breckenridge news. (Cloverport, Ky.) 1876-1955, 1900-05-23

Now, my friends, thank you for your
attention.
A voice: We want you for Vice Presi-
dent.
Gov. Bradley: Gentlemen, l am afraid
that in your day and mine we will never
live to see Vice President come from
south Of the Ohio river. We will con-
tent ourselves, however, by voting for
and electing a President north OF the
Ohio river, and, while we cannot expect
to enter this charmed circle of holding
the Office Of Vice President, we can at
least be high privates in the rear ranks
and fight the battles OF our country. 1
thank you for your attention.
