In his speech at Columbia Monday
Mr.. Beckham among other things
said: Republican leaders now try to
reflect upon the Democratic admins
tration by referring to the Breathitt
county troubles, it certainly is
not fair TO hold a Democratic Cover
nor responsible for the Breathitt coun
ty troubles" No Republican has ev-
er intimated that Mr.. Beckham is in
any wise responsible for the Breath
lit county troubles which eliminated
in the association of Cox, Cockrell and
Marcum. But every Republican who
is informed and every fair minded
Democrat who understands the situa-
ton knows that he (Beckham) is re-
sponsible for Jim Hargis not being
punished for these assassinations.

Auditor Hager in his speeches ask
ing to be elected Governor is prating
very much about the Democratic ad-
ministration paying the State out of
debt, which he alleges was~incurred
under Governor Bradley's term of Of
flee. No more iniquitious falsehood
than the statement that Bradley's ad-
ministration ran the State in debt was
ever uttered. Ii is within the knowl-
edge, even the schoolo booys that Ken
lucky was bordering on bankruptcy
when Bradley was elected. Citizens
throughout the State who did jury
service had to wait from two to six
months or pay heavy discounts to
get their pay. Witnesses for the State
in commonwealth cases were compen-
ed to do the same. Claims of all
kinds against the State were being
discounted from 25 to so per cent.
In fact, the States credit was worse
than could be pictured. Its securities
were floating around as practically
worthless. 1t was impossible to, any
thing like, correctly estimate the in
debtedness but it was several mil
lions" This was all paid,the States
credit restored, claims for jury SER
vice and witness fees and all other
purposes, were paid pormptly as soon
as due and over a million dollars left
in the treasury when Beckham, Ha-
ger and others by the famous office
theft took charge of the State govern
ment.

ArouSing Intense interest.

No better indication of the intense
interest that is being taken in Au-
gustus Wilson's campaign for hon
est government in Kentucky is had
than the huge crouds that have thus
far attended the heart-to-heart talks
which he has made since the opeing
of the campaign, and the general char
acter of the gatherings.
These assemblages have not been
made up of mere curiosity-seekers,bu but
of citizens who are awakened to the
peril of their State in the hands of
the political ring at Frankfort, which
controls absolutely the present adj
ministration. They usually brought
their wives and families, sometimes
journeying many weary miles over
mountain roads to listen to the story
of good government and the promise
of better times and better things for
the people of Kentucky as told by sir.
Wilson.
A man must have low opinion
of the intelligence of Kentucky voters,
when he tries to make votes by pledging
himself to pardon or not pardon a
man charged with crime before the
facts have been submitted to him. A
Judge anticipating what causes will
come before him If elected had as well
pledge himself to decide the case in
this mans favor, or against that man.
The laws of Kentucky have too long
been disgraced by the administration
of law according to party advan-
tages and political accident; and the
time has come when We should elect
men to office who will decide all
cases coming before them according
to the merits of the case and not ac-
cording to prediction pledges.-Ex.
