all interests involved in the contest for

your hands relief from the exactions,
which a nomination would impose.
"For ten long months I have borne
as best 1 could the burdens which have
attended this great struggle. How
much 1 have endured for freedoms

all this the will of the people has been
overthrown and I la not only been
robbed, out subjected to a merciless
political persecution.
THE coming campaign is one of
profound Importance to Kentucky
The ballot must be redeemed. The
