Discussing the announcement of
Gov. Beckham, the Bowling Green
Times, published in a county sup
posed to be a IBeckham stronghold,
notes the change in public sentj,
ment as follows:
THE Times regrets that the
Governor did not find it to be in ac-
cord with his judgment, il not his
feelings, to decline candidacy un-
der the peculiar conditions by which
Kentucky Democrats finds them
selves confronted. There Is no
cleaner, more deserving nor bright
er Young Democrat in Kentucky
| than Governor Beckham, and none
more worthy of public esteem and
party confidence, but with the en-
! lyironments bywhich he is surround
led it is not reasonable to believe
that his nomination would be a
iudicious work. To unite aud
strengthen the Democratic party
should be the uppermost thought in
LDG ulluu VI ShCl DShiOOl hN W hO IL
not viewing the situation for tht
standpoint of personal obligation
The conviction is strengthening
with a certainty that cannot b
successfully gainsaid, that it is i'm
! possible to placste the anti-Goebe
| Democrats of Kentucky by th
nomination of Mr.. Beckham
The Times is absolutely withou
prejudice in this matter, and woul
vote for Governor Beckham with a
great pleasure as any Democrat i
Kentucky If it could feel that he wa
the strongest man, and only TO
e that reason does it think his nom
= nation would be disastrous to tn

Ia 1896 Judge Jas. d. Black made
the race for Congress in the Eleventh
district as the Democratic nominee.
The Republican majority against
him was only 1886, with an Inde-
pendent Republican in the race who
received 4,597 votes. The figures
show that Judge Black was defeat
ed by less than 10000 votes in a
district that gave Taylor 10000
last year. If he can reduce the Re
publican majority 5000 in a con-
gressional race, he might be ex-
pected to do even better in a race
for Governor.

Judge Lewis IN Mccracken.

Judge Jos. H. Lewis is down in

at Paducah Monday is thus report
ed by the News:
"a host of strong party men have
assured him of their warmest sup.
port, and he is in high spirits over
the very enthusiastic reception
given him here and elsewhere.
Judge Lewis friends claim that he
can command more strength among
all factions of the Democra attic party
than any other candidate, and if
Paducah is any criterion, their
claims are true. Several of the
most active partisaDs of the late
Governor Goebel are extremely ac-
tive in pushing Judge Lewis can

There more Caiarrh in this sec

last lew years was supposed to be in

doctors pronounced it local disease,

constantly failing TO cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Sci, nee has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.

IN addition 70 The alHost unirer-
Sal demand lor q 'halniony candi
date, There Is also gcneral de-
sure among Democrats that The OBJ
.ctonablc features oi the election
law be removed by amendments.
fhe original purpose ol the Elec-
tou law WAS 20 stop frauds and se-
cure to The State honest and fair
elections and a fair division Of Off
GERS. In many respects the present
law is a better law than the old
one, that placed unlimited power in
the hands Of county Judge, often
an unsafe mau to be entrusted with
such responsibility. The great
clamor raised by those who were
prevented from perpetrating frauds,
coupled with the misrepresenta-
ticns of those opposed to the cleo
tion law as a plank in the party
platform, combined to create a
prejudice against the law, based
in a great degree on lack of correct
information.
The coming Democratic conven-
tion will probably speak. out in fa-
vor of radical amendments to the
election law, removing the features
that have proved to be a soucce of
discord in the party. The good
features should be and will be re-
tanned and some important changes
should be made in the sections of
the old law not amended by the
Goebel bill. The new law can with
some changes be made non-partisan
and infinitely better than the old
one. The old law was partisan in
that the members Of the State
Board of Canvass and of Contest
were all members of the same po-
litical party-the party for the time
IN control of the State Offices. 1t
was partisan because the political |
complexion Of precinct election Off
GERS was fixed by the political COM
plexion of the County Judge, who !
was given absolute power in ap- |
pointing them. 1t was partisan in
that the members of each county
board of canvassers belonged to the
dominant party IN that county, and
the members Of each county board
of contest, as rule, were members
of the same political party.
Let it be understood that the
Democrats themselves are willing
and anxious to remedy the defects
in our ballot system and let the
coming convention pledge the party
% do so as speedily as possible.
With this source Of discord removed
and a leader free from any entangle-
nents of the past, and the way is
clear to a reunited party and
sweeping victory in the fall.
