Ono Common Bond


The Governor uttered the fol-
loving feliciAious remarksln pre-
facing his message H. ~ u
Let us all join cordially and
without antagonism in asking
the blessing of God upon our
work and our counsel to'the end
that whatever we may do shall
be good, honest, unsellish and
faithful to duty.
L. We are all livipSand working
together, under our covenant
with each other written in the
Constitution Of the people, and IL
the spirit of the Bill Of Rights
carefully guarding the liberty Of
each soul under the law, protect
ing even one alone against all
the millions aud bound in honor
and good faith andNbYa common
interest to defend and guard that
liberty as our greatest blessing,
and to be just and righteous to-
ward each other both as individ-
uals and as groups, parties and
sects.
While our government shapes
its policies through party organ
lzation, all of us know that gov
eminent, in order to gain or hold
power, must always realize the
strength and the truth of the
time honored rule that he serves
his party best who serves his
whole State best.
If, forgetting this rule, l
sought only party success, l
might do most to that end by
simply recording, and even
tempting by my course, unfair,
partisan and prejudiced action
on the part of the overwhelming
opposition majority in the Gem
eral Assembly; but the high
duties of the Office of Governor
do not permit me, for one mo-
ment, to follow such course.
Servant OF All.
Being the servant Of all the
people and owe to all and every
one, without distinction Of party,
more, IL seems to me, than any
Governor Of Kentucky ever
owned before, and / humbly
