that he threw every obstacle in his pow
er in the way OF preventing the arrest
and conviction of any one suspected of
the crime; that ne issued his pardons to
some OF those under suspicion even be-
fore their arrest and Indictment; that
he was presumably the beneficiary in
the death of William Goebel, who was
contesting with him the title TO the gov
ernorship of Kentucky; That he refused
to recognize the writ Of habeas corpus,
filled the state capitol with over 1000
armed desperadoes and threatened the
entire state with revolution and anar-
chy, and that today he is cringing
suppicant at your feet, begging that he
be not given over to trial on an indiet-
ment charging him with being a con-
spl,ator in the murder of his successful
rival. 1t would be no satisfaction to any
one to punish an innocent man for this
crime. The mind of any civilized man
revolts at such an idea The brothers
and friends of the murdered governor
simply demand the punishment of those
who conspired to kill him. No political
advantage could be gained by any one
or any party in conyicting the two self
confessed criminals now basking in the
smiles of your protecting care. You ask
again what was the object in appropri-
ating S1OO,000 for the conviction of the
suspected murderers of William Goe-
bel? The same object which prompted
the government to pay secret service
men and other detectives to discover. if
possible, whether the miserable wretch
Czolgosz had any confederates in his
spent of the Goebel reward fund, all in
the legitimate expense of the trials, and
1t is safe to assert that at least that
much has already been spent in the
laudable purpose of trying to discover
the anarchist plot to murder our la
mented president.
The honored name of Kentucky
needs no defense at my hands. Her his
tory is one of which we are justly
proud. Over 100 years ago she became
a commonwealth in the American union
and her pioneer citizens cleared the for
ests, built homes schools, churches, and
established civil government and quick
~ placed her among the first states of
the union. Her people are brave, gener-
Gus, hospitable and obedient to the law.
Life, liberty and property are as safe
within her borders as anywhere on
earth. Only one time in her history were
these blessings threatened, and that
was brought about by these two fugi
tives whom you harbor and some of
their associates. 1t was then, too that
the great body of Kentuckians showed
their splendid character their forbear-
ance and their profound respect for the
law and the constituted authorities, and
It was their patient courage at such a
critical time that brought order out of
chaos, government out of anarchy. Such
4 people as these could neither be
helped by your praise nor harmed by
your scurrilous abuse, and such a prin-
