Lieut.. aovernor,s Race.

There seems to be little interest over
the state in the race for Lieut. Govern
or of Kentucky. but there should be
much interest manifested.
There are two good men tout for the
office, but one is especially observing OF
recognition, and that one is Col. w p
Thorne, of Eminence, ny.
OF course every man. woman and
child in Kentucky knows that Col Bill
Thorne is candidate for Lieutenant
Governor. He has made many speeches
in this county. As a Democrat his
record is unsullied; as speaker his
wi. is unsurpassed. and as a lawyer and
legislator, his record stands. out like a
star in the armament.
Col. Thorne says he wants all the one
"gallus' fellows who own one mich
COW COR less) to vote for him. and he
will win without a struggle.
Col. Thorne has held a number of re-
sponsible positions and has knack at
succeeding at almost anything he un
dertakes. He has made more speeches
for his party than any man in the State
and has personal acquaintance ex-
tending from the Big Sandy to Mills
Point.
Whether nominated or defeated, Col.
Thorne will be found ON the stump this
fall fighting for his party. But his
friends say they are going to reward
this valiant knight by putting him on
the ticket by the side OF Kentucky's
brilliant young Governor.
