defense Of the peoples right" Such
declarations belittle the manhood and
intelligence of the men and women of
Kentucky.
Yerkes and Assassination.
Mr.. YerIees ls a lawyer, he ls law
professor, he teaches young men the
principal Of law and the true doctrines
Of life, and yet he says that this in
fraction Of human and divine law is
only the act Of few individuals. Yet
he wrote the clause in the Republican
platform which endorsed and approV-
ed them and which says these mon
strous acts are "resoIute and patrl-
otio and ain defense Of the rights Of
the people"
II they are the acts of few lndi-
viduals, why did the Republican par
ty deem 1t necessary and proper TO en-
dorse them? Republican campaign
money hired the villain who fired the
shot that put William Goebel to
death: a Republican officer kept the
arms of these assassins, checked the
guns they brought to Frankfort; Re-
publican governor pardoned them IN
advance of trial and the Republican
party endorsed the man as patriotic"
who permitted these outrages, and yet
a man OF Mr.. Yerkes' sense and intel
lect says the Republican party must
not be held responsible for these
crimes against life and liberty, when
Mr.. 1erkes, it is reported, himself
wrote the section which commends
the assassination as the work of reso-
lutte patriots and defenders Of the peo-
ple's rights.
Mr.. Bradley, when he was nominal
ing Mr.. Yerkes for the place as Re-
publican candidate for. governor, said
II was ten times as bad to say that
Taylor would run away from Ken
lucky and not stand a trial for Goe-
bePS murder as 20 shoot GoebeI down
in the capital grounds when on his
way to discharge his duty as state
senator and now Mr.. Yerkes speaks
sIightingly of this fearful act, dis
misses II with a sentence and actually
goes on to speak as II this cruel assas-
sination was hardly worse than hold
ing an office to which one was not
elected.
II Mr. Yerkes keeps on talking In
this fiippant way about the murder Of
Mr.. Goebel people will come to the
conclusion that he is not as good as
we have believed him to be and that
long association with and advising hts
fellow Republicans, Bradley, Taylor,
Finley and Powers, has made him
look upon the most desperate crimes
with mitigating eyes and that after
all the crime of murder, denounced by
human and divine law, is not the
worst offense a man can commit.
Yerkes first Bradleyized, then Tay-
lorized, then Finleyized, then Powers
lied, and unless his courage briRgs
him up to the point where he will say
whether he does or does not approve
of Taylor's acts, the people will come
to the conclusion that he is neither
brave nor good.

WHERE IS TAYLOR NoWH

"There remains but one
course open to him (Tayorl,
and that Is to return as soon
as he can, walk boldly and
bravely into court and meet the
Indictment like a man. Any
other course would be rank in
Justice not only to himself but
TO those of his friends who
have been accused Of so foul
a crime. ! do not know wheth-
er the indictment has been
found against Mr.. Taylor, but I
have no doubt II II Is that
he will promptly surrend him
self Into the hands of the law,
and believe that any intlmation
TO the contrary does him inJus-
tlee."-Ex-GoV. Bradley, April 2.
"Onee for all, desire to say
neither directly nor indirectly
had ! any connection with the
assassination Of Senator GoebeI.
am a citizen Of this state,
amenable to it's laws; ! am not
criminal, neither shall ever
be a fugitive from Justice.
Whenever Indicted, II such an
outrage should be committed,

OF my Innocence and the ulti-
mate triumph Of right and Jus
tlce."--W. s. Taylor, April 7.

NO ANSWER TO 1T YET.

Nearly one month has elapsed since
William J. Bryan delivered his famous
speech at indianapolis. The perora-
tion of that speech has been read and
re-read by countless thousands of the
people of the world. That splendid
peroration was not a mere collection
Of words. EloquentIy and foreefuIIy
the line was there drawn between the
national destiny as conceived by the
fathers and contemplated by the fol-
lowers of William J. Bryan and the
national destiny" conceived by the
weak and platitudinous Mckinley and
the men to whose un-Ameriean
schemes he yields all too readily. Al.
though the world has become familiar
with the peroration of Bryan's IndI.
annapolis speech, no Republican organ
has endeaVored to answer it, no Re-
publican orator has dared to assail IL.
Read 1t again:
"a can conceive of a national destiny

and the pasta destiny which meets
the responsibilities of today and meas.
ures up to the possibilities of the fu-
ture.

that they are endowed with inaIIen-
able rights; that governments are in
stituted among men to secure these
rights, and that governments derive
their just powers from the consent Of
the government.
"7ehoId republic in which civil
and religious liberty stimulate all to
earnest endeavor and In which the law
restraints every hand upIifted for a

every citizen Is sovereign, but In
which no one cares to wear a crown.

ample and gives light and inspiration
to those who sit In darkness.
"Behoida republic gradually but

eepted arhiter Of the worlds disputes
"a republic whose history, like the

When you are told the Mckinley

country, ask your Informant Why no

Bryan's splendid apostrophs to an
American national destiny.

An Artful Evasion.

But the horror and indignation
which filed the breasts Of the people
on account of the foul assassination
OF Gov. Goebel has, 10 some extent,
prevented a full discussion and con-
s,deration OF the most serious and Inn
nortant question developed by the uu-
hnrpv events OF the past twelve
months That question Mr. Yerkes
has artfully evaded. He has grown
eloquent in discussing the results ot
The election law. and depicted, in
glowing colors. the fearful wounds
which liberty has received on account
of the enactment Of this law but he
has refrained from expressing himself
as TO the assault, made by Taylor, as

Great Meeting In the New Coliseum
Mt Chicago.

Chicago, Aug. 26.-The national en-
campment of the Grand Army of the Re
public was opened by the dedication of
the new Coliseum, in which all the joint
campfres, the reunions, the war song
concerts of the veterans and the religious
and other exercises for the public incl
dental to the encampment will be held.
The new Coliseum stands on Wabash
avenue, between Fourteenth and Six
tcenth streets, on the site Of Libby pris-
on, and within its walls was gathered
one of the largest assemblies that has
ever been seen in this city under one
roof. :
A chorus of LOCO costumed to repre-
sent a living flag occupied an immense
platform at one end of the building, and
close by them was the great band of 100
pieces that will render the concerts dur
ing the week of the cncampment. jules
Lombard. the famous singer of war
times, was there and sang "The Star
Spangled Banner" from the original
manuscript, which was loaned for the
occasion by G. Il. Gunther of this city.
The dedicatory exercises proper COM
prised an address by +. o. Lowden OF
Chicago, response by Mayor Harrison
and addresses by other local speakers.
The members of the Grand Army and
their friends have been pouring into the
city all day long on regular trains and
innumerable specials from all parts OF
the country. 1t is estimated that 10000
Of them arrived Saturday, and many
times that number are expected. The
chief arrival was the Spanish minister
the Due d'Arcos, with the Countess d'Ar
cos. They were met at the Lake Shore
depot by a committee representing th'
Grand Army and another representing
the city of Chicago and escorted to thu
AudtSbrium annex, where apartments
had been provided for them. The escor
on the way from the depot to the hote
was headed by the Denver Fife ant
Drum corps. General Daniel e. Sickle
has also arrived.
The new Coliseum, which is just fin
ished, is one of the prettiest places II
Chicago. 1t is intended to take the plac
of the structure which stood near tn
Worlds fair grounds in 1893, in whicl
the Democratic national convention o
1896 was held and which was later de
stroyed by fire. The present structur
contains the largest auditorium in tn
city. 1t has seats for 1000 in the mai
portion, for 1000 on the stage and stand
ing room for 1000 more.

FITz FULL OF FIGHT.
He is Ready to Meet Jeffries on
Friday.

New Yory. August 26th, 1900
1t is up to Jim JeiIries now, and if he
agrees to fight Fitz he can be quickly
accommodated, for Fitz said today that
he is ready to take him on next Friday
night and what's more, LankX Bob pre-
pared to have the mill fought at NIadi-
son Square Garden. By a good stroke
of business the management of the
Twentieth Century Club secured Fitz's
signature today. and if Jefferies consents
for u speedy battle, which is rather i'm
probable, the contest will be decided in
this city. Fits willingness to indulge
in another scrap before September l
came in the nature of a surprise, as it
was thought that he did not intend to
do any more fighting for six months at
least. Billy Brady was seen today about
Fitz's proposition. AS was expected, he
refused to arrange a match between
Jeffries and Fitz for August 81.
1t is probable that there will be a
meeting Monday between Brady and
Williams to come to some agreement
anent a struggle.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The clever and charming comedienne
Miss Katharine Rober, and her excel
lent company of players, will open a
weeks engagement at the Grand Opera
House tonight, when she will present
Con. 7. Murphy's famous play "Kil-
larney." 1t is a picturesque character
play of Ireland of TODAY. 1t will be
staged in an elaborate manner character
istic Of Miss ROBBERS usual methods of
correctness in all of her productions.
The costumes to be worn during the
week by Miss Rober and the other ladies
of the company, are considered marvels
of the modiste's art. Miss Rober alone
carries fifteen trunks filled with the
gowns worn during weeks engage
ment and wardrobe mistress specially
engaged to look after them.
"Camilie" will be presented tomorrow
afternoon and "Moths of Society" to-
morrow evening.
Miss Rober on her former visits here
has won hundreds of admirers among
local theatre goers for her artistic and
painstaking efforts in presenting a rep
ertoire of standard plays in such COM
mendable shape, and this season she will
undoubtedly add largely to the list, for
the plays are Of the best, and her COM
pany one of the strongest that she has
ever brought to Wilmington, and the
Grand Opera House will doubtlessly be
crowded tonight with the many friends
OF this little favorite to give her royal
welcome.
