historically the state has been diVid-
ed Into the mountains, bluegrass

Tue monntains are hOpelessly repnbli-

but the bluegrass region has always
dominated politically with a high
hand. When Brown entered the lists

anything who refuses joint debate,
and nobody was especially anxious to
debate with Brown. The republicans
hOwled necessarily that the ''pennY-

to smash the "hluegraSs machine. "
They did everything in their power
to promote suspicion and discomfort.
The situation was somewhat similar
to the situation 10 Missouri today,
only it was largely geographical
Brown was triumphantlY elected.
He had made no promises, received 20
help, and was under 40 obligations to
anybody. A theorist would say that
the situation was perfect for an ideal
administration. But if there was
ever a worse or more conscientious
governor of that state, history has
lie t no record Of it. He was not
ambitious for further political honors
for himself or for anybody else. He
failed to build up a new political
hierarchy or to maintain the old one
Without such there is no such thing
as party harmony or party success.
He lever did a polite or c%onciliatory
thing, nor did be ever violate his con-
science or his judgement AS COVER
nor he was neither democrat nor
republican, neither populist nor mug
w%ump-he was simply governor.
When he left the char there was no
more democratic organization in Ken
lucky than in K%amtchatka He was
succeeded by Bradley, a republican,
who was in turn succeeded by Go bel
or Taylor, as the reader may prefer.
Everybody knows the rest. The civil
turmoil IN Kentucky witch followed
the assassination of Goebel may
properly be charged to the account
Of John Young Brown; aud yet it
is consistent for any man who looks
at things broadly to pronounce
one of the greatest of Kentuck
Ians and one Of sacred memory.

JOHN YOUNG BROWN.

The death of John Young Brown
at Henderson, Kentucky, this week
removed One Of the great men that
state has produced. And yet his
name would hardly appear ia any list
OF fifteen or twenty of the greatest
Kentuckians, if such list were made
by his contemporaries. He was not
a popular man. His talent for IN
popularity amounted almost to genius
In manner he was cold and formal.
His mind was of the clear, penetra
ting, right-thinking type. He was a
KIDD and gentle man but without
warmth. If you had been seeking a
model husband and father, you might
have stopped when you found John
Young Brown. But outside of his
family and a very small circle of per.
sonal friends which be found sufficient
very few people ever knew or loved
him. AS an orator he belongs to a type
not often seen. He swept you away
as in a whirlwind and just let you drop.
Whether friend or foe you could not
escape the feeling OF a man on a rail-
road train running at dangerous
speed, that If the blamed thing ever
stopped you would get of aOd walk
