KENTUcKY,s ELECTION Law.
General Lewis Declares That Ii
should Rs. Modified


LOUISVILLE, KY. June z3.-Gen. Jo-
seph H. Lewis, prominent candidate for
the Demooretio gubernatorial nomination,
today declared himself for modification
Of the Goebei election law
Il am most strongly in favor OF the
Legislature being convened in extra ses-
sion for the sole purpose OF modifying our
present election law" he said. 'It is lot
for me- to state what modification or
amendment OF the law should be adopted,
but there Is an absolute necessity for it
to be SO amended as to recommend it as
a whole 10 the best thinking people Of the
State. There is a prevalent opinion in
the State that elections under its provis-
ions are not conducted fairly and that it
is too partisan. Whether this be true or
not il Ia matter of no inconsiderable
belief and does not reflect credit on our
Commonwealth. I therefore say. call an
extra session OF the Legislature and modi-
fy the law 50 as to remove this feeling of
distrust.'
Regarding the recent suggestion that
Governor Beckham's term Of Office does
not expire until 1903, General Lewis said:
"E is nonsense to discuss IL. The
constitutional history of the State is
against it, and our law is that the people
should have the power to fill vacancies
In Offices when the uDeyptred term comes
within a certain named period But.
aside from this, any discussion of the
question is in the highest degree unwise.
The courts have not now time to settle
the question, IL one does exist, and we are
certain Of one fact. that the Republicans
will vote for their ticket If however,
TN attempt is made by Democrats to cre-
ate the belief that no gubernatorial elec-
ton is necessary this year, the tendency
will be to keep them away from the polls"
