THE LINES ARE DRAWN all The result obtained at Lexington is as honest and as unequivocal an express- ion ¬ of the will of the people as could be expected or desired It will carry with it all the weight it one deserves aSa free and genuine expres- sion for It ought and we think it will reunite the party The issue between the two parties in the nation is much der the same as it was before the Interpo- sition of internecine faction and doc- trinal ly vor quibling But in the State it simple choice between the responsi ¬ elements of conservative ordely and intelligent society and the combine money and murder which gets its orders from Washington and expects win ifitwin at all by fraud and forceGov not Beckham has shown himself a prudent and courageous man He has der done his duty during an ordeal that might have tried the wisdom of an old der man His nomination is the popu¬ recognition of this The people say in effect We refuse to swap horses crossing a stream They give the youth of the young Governor the benefit of the doubt knowing full surely that time will cure it He has already grown out of it enough to have arisen to the full exigency of the situ ¬ ation and he will as time passes show conclusively that he is a worthy scion an illustrious race of Kentuckians equal as his fathers were before him each emergency as it arises in The Republicans of Kentucky dare not go to the people upon there own six record Hence it is that they would force the democrats to meet them up ¬ the single issue upon which they suppose the democrats to be divided That is the Election Law They will find themselves mistaken There is not a Democrat in Kentucky worthy of the name who wants any election law that is not strictly nonpartisan and fair There is not a man whose judgment is entitled to weight who does not know that with such a law a the Democray led by Beckham will sweep the State The Republicans will not be premitted to put the Elec ¬ tion Law between themselves and the fires of damnation They will not be premitted to use the Election Law alternately as a wedge to divide Dem ¬ ocrats and a screen to protect them Selves When Governor Beckham has called the Democratic Legislature to gether in extraordinary sessionwhen its democratic members have reconven- ed ¬ at Frankfort with the tragedy of last winter engraved on mind and heart wlththe obligations of right and a duty before conscience and honor and with the voice of the good peole of the State ringing in their earsthey will without any other let or hindrance except that of the Republicans who will thus show themselves in their true colors imprint upon the Election Law such modifications and amendments- as experience has shown to be neces- sary and they will make it so just and so nonpartisan as that no rightthink ¬ ing man can gainsay it And where will the Republicans then be They will be stripped of the wretched subterfuge of seeking the re ¬ form of the lawfor their sole hope is of keeping it unchanged upon the booksand they will be turned loose naked to face the awful indictment against them the operations of Brad ¬ ley and his partisan militia before the last election the operations of the RailwayPolitical Combine during and immediately succeeding the election the Reign of Terror precipitated upon the State Capital by the descent of the mountain feudists the murder of Goebel the dispersal of the Legisla- ture ¬ by the edict of the Republican claimant and by armed violence and the long line of usurpations and outr- ages perpetrated by Taylor from the firing of the shot that struck the Dem- ocratic ¬ claimant down to the hour of this own disgraceful flight from State a selfconfessed criminal and a cowardly fugitive from justice These are the issuesthe real issues of the campaign before us and not the Goc bellaw The Republicans will have to meet them We repeat that they will have to meet themto meet them in the open field for they cannot and they will not bo permitted to skulk be- hind the Goebel law using it before theelection as a club to beat the Dem ¬ dicet tiou as a t to throw the vote of the State out the Electoral College to refuse admi- Sian of the Democratic members of Kentuckys delegation to Congress and it may benn case McKinley electedto g make of the State ment of Kentucky itself a case of seal Intervention ruinous both to political and our

representative and a responsible Chief Magistrate who does not take his cue from a ring of Federal officeholders nor look his election to organized corrup- tion and brutality one who is not theWI

THE LINES ARE DRAWN all

The result obtained at Lexington is as

honest and as unequivocal an express-

ion

¬

of the will of the people as could beexpected or desired

It will carry with it all the weight it one

deserves aSa free and genuine expres-

sionforIt ought and we think it will

reunite the party The issue betweenthe two parties in the nation is much derthe same as it was before the Interpo-sition of internecine faction and doc-

trinal

lyvorquibling But in the State it

simple choice between the responsi ¬

elements of conservative ordelyand intelligent society and the combine

money and murder which gets itsorders from Washington and expects

win ifitwin at all by fraud and

forceGov notBeckham has shown himself a

prudent and courageous man He has derdone his duty during an ordeal thatmight have tried the wisdom of an old

der man His nomination is the popu¬

recognition of this The people

say in effect We refuse to swap

horses crossing a stream They givethe youth of the young Governor thebenefit of the doubt knowing fullsurely that time will cure it He hasalready grown out of it enough to havearisen to the full exigency of the situ ¬

ation and he will as time passes showconclusively that he is a worthy scion

an illustrious race of Kentuckiansequal as his fathers were before him

each emergency as it arises inThe Republicans of Kentucky dare

not go to the people upon there own sixrecord Hence it is that they wouldforce the democrats to meet them up ¬

the single issue upon which theysuppose the democrats to be dividedThat is the Election Law They willfind themselves mistaken There isnot a Democrat in Kentucky worthyof the name who wants any electionlaw that is not strictly nonpartisanand fair There is not a man whosejudgment is entitled to weight whodoes not know that with such a law athe Democray led by Beckham willsweep the State The Republicanswill not be premitted to put the Elec ¬

tion Law between themselves and thefires of damnation They will not bepremitted to use the Election Lawalternately as a wedge to divide Dem ¬

ocrats and a screen to protect themSelves When Governor Beckham hascalled the Democratic Legislature together in extraordinary sessionwhenits democratic members have reconven-ed

at Frankfort with the tragedy oflast winter engraved on mind andheart wlththe obligations of right and a

duty before conscience and honor andwith the voice of the good peole of theState ringing in their earsthey will

without any other let or hindranceexcept that of the Republicans whowill thus show themselves in their truecolors imprint upon the Election Lawsuch modifications and amendments-as experience has shown to be neces-sary and they will make it so just andso nonpartisan as that no rightthink ¬

ing man can gainsay itAnd where will the Republicans

then be They will be stripped of thewretched subterfuge of seeking the re¬

form of the lawfor their sole hope isof keeping it unchanged upon thebooksand they will be turned loosenaked to face the awful indictmentagainst them the operations of Brad¬

hind the Goebel law using it beforetheelection as a club to beat the Dem ¬dicettiou as a tto throw the vote of the State outthe Electoral College to refuse admi-
