bition to run for the presidency, but
indicated that he might accept the
democratic nomination for governor of
Kentucky. Colonel Henry Watterson
laid down the oracular proposition that
the democratic platfroms of 1886 and
1900 are as dead as the democratic
platforms of 1860 and 1892. If we are
able. to carry the country in 1904, as
we have good prospects Of doing, or
Of carrying the next congress in the
coming autumn elections. we must open
a fresh set of books" But who is to
be the bookkeeper? Shall the entries
be made by Colonel Bryan, Tom John
son. Grover Cleveland, David B. Hill,
Richard Olney or Al thur P German =?
Undoubtedly, the democracy would be
glad to forget the platforms of the
