EXCITEMENT IN. RUSSIA.

Berlin, Dec. 1.-The paper roubles fell a quarter of per cent. on the boerse to-day and Russian notes sold for 2l5 3-4 instead of 216, the par rate of eX" change. This is attributed to .ie ex- traordinary large quantities of no,es brought out from Russia during the last few days by persons leaving the country who are offering them for sale in this market. It has been observed that the amount of these notes is daily increasing. A quotation under 216 had not occurred since 1893.

ticians to which he belongs. Let
the people but refresh their
memory for the last ten years as
to the part he has PLAYED in the
politics Of the state.
Kentucky is the only state IN
the Union where substantial
democratic gains have been
shown in the last five years. To-
day every department of the
state government is in the hands
Of the democratic party, and the
condition Of the states finances
was never so good as now. The
people are satisfied with the
management Of their affairs, and
the democratic party of the state
is in good condition, as was
shown in the last election by the
way Kentucky withstood the re-
publican landslide in the nation.
And yet here returns this long
lost senator. still a candidate for
the senate, hsrling defiance at
the machine bugaboo, saying
things have not been run right
since he left, and that he is
willing to save the people from
the impending danger by run
ming for the senate once more,
He Is willing to demonstrate to

they can throw off the CALLING
yoke of this tyranical machine
and that is to send him to the
senate just another time. The
Senator is mistaken if he thinks
he can promote his candidacy by
these vicious attacks upon me
and my associates in the state
administration. We are fully
acquainted with the motive that
actuates him, and it is not the
first time we have encountered
his blatant boasts aud inane
threats.
