summed up in three duels, one mar

BLUNT OLD SENATOR IS BRADLEY

publican, was elected senator as a
compromise. In the present in
stance Bradley wins by a similar
bolt by few democratic legisla-
tors. except that they voted for a
man of opposite party.
Bradley is well preserved,
stockily built man with a smooth
shaver face and twinkling brown
eyes. He used to wear a flowing
goatee and a white SLOUGH hat. He
still affects the white SLOUGH hat.
He is very blunt in his manner, but
has accumulated no more enemies
than the smoother-tongued, silk
stocking politicians of prominence
in the state.
He loves to make speeches In
which "My Old Kentucky Home
figures. He is apt to be one of
the most conspicuous senators
that have ever been sent to Wash
ington from Kentucky. AT present
he Is enjoying a lucrative law prac-
tice in Louisville, whittier he re-
moved after leaving the governors
chair.
Bradley is known as an 'old-
line" republican. and is one of
the very few republicans of promi'
nence in Kentucky who never
held a federal job. He had a
small presidential boom when, In
1896, he was Endorsed as favor
lite son" for president by the state
convention.
