The almost universal feeling for

nearly all county committeeman
are for Black, the harmony candi-

prevails to a still greater extent
amongst the "boys in the trenches.
They admire the handsome young
Governor, who is asking a prema-

months service, but they love the
Democratic party more than any

Whatever may be the outcome in

we feel that we have performed a
duty to the Democratic party in u.s.

ences and vote together once more

for Black as the most available
man to rescue Kentucky from the
danger of further rule by assassi-
nation. They realize that the
boasted respectability of the Hanna
candidate, whose nomination has
been determined upon by Taylor's
followers, will be a delusion and a
snare. Yerkes is a director in a
blatant organ of assassination that
has defended Taylor's lawless
course and even now claims that
this fugitive from justice is a mar
tyr to "civil liberty" No stream
is purer than its source and the
company Yerkes will find himself

must answer at the bar of public
opinion as we'll as in the courts of
Justice for the murder of Gov. Goe
bel. Judge Black, if he should be
;alled to lead his party, as now
seems probable, will see that Yer
<es does not evade the issue. He
will challenge him to meet him on
the stump and answer to the in
1ictment of his party. There is no
better man in Kentucky for this,
task than the eloquent and courage
ous mountaineer. He has met Mr..
Yerkes in debate before and the
champion OF the Taylorites has not
orgotten his experience. The
acts in the assassination of Gov.
1oebel cannot be concealed. The
circuit court at Georgetown is even
low preparing campaign issues for
Mr.. Yerkes to defend or be driven
rom the stump. The Democratic
party only needs to nominate a
eader who is not only able to hold
Mr.. Yerkes to a strict accounta-
oility for the crimes of mis- friends,
OIt who can at the same me
mite all Democrats under a COM

If you are a Democrat with the
success of your party at heart, take

morrow and voting for a united
