If which a boy la now living.
After tho first years however dls-
Iord crept into Ashorno and tho dlf-
Tenres between husband and wife

The advent of an English nrmy oi-
jctr In the Countoss of Warwick's sot
ho made no secrot of his lovo and
Omiratlon for Mrs. Troo may have
ad nothing to do with destroying tho
unily harmony. No scandal has

H. H. Hagau Eulogizes the
Distinguished Kentucky!
Journalist .
ftgrdm Uit soon'fcflinthg of Oel.
Henry WaUeraon to this oRy. Horace
II. Hasan has furnished the following
communication telling of a truly great
man. Mr. Hagau was a delegate to
k CUI on go convention .and ( a great
uunmur ui me eminent ana uisting-
ulshed Journalist
The two men. above all others who
stood up for the South were George
D. Prentice and Henry Watterson.
Henry Watterson was regarded as the
political oraclo and defender of the
people of the southern states.
In 1870 he WAS elected to mntrraila
fid fill out tho unexpired term of a. Y.
Parsons and in the spring of 1877 ho
participated vlforously In tho debates
dvor tho settlement of tho Hays-ril-don
eontroverwy. It was he who sent
tho famotiB telegram that there should
be at the inauguration one hundred
thousand unarmed Kentuckians.
Since that he has simply been n
Journalist and lecturer. In his news-
paper life he haii enjoyed the love and
respect of his fellow newspaper men
because of his absolute fairness abili-
ty and dashing spirit. He never
stoops to small things In his profes
sion. Ho has boon a modol of a man
and Is so regardod by all the news
paper men. His nolghbars. tho peoplo
of i-ouisvllle and Kontucky almost
worship him which of course Is tho
highest tribute that can be paid to
any man.
Tho first tlmo I heard Mr. Walter-
son leoturo was In 1879 at tho Mis-
souri Stato university. His lecture
was very instructive and highly on-rJJJtjtoK-
II obondodln humor wit
pathos and 'eloquonco. I shall never
forget his advice to tho students. Ho
pictured to thom tho fato of tho poli-
tician; how ho had soon ex-sonators
and ex-congressmen at Washington
oegging for tho loan of 2Gc. Ho beg-
ged his hoarors to ehooBo somo othor
vocations In llfo than that of politics.
From March 4th. 1877 to tho fall of
1880 Mr. Watterson never caasod to
allvocate the ronomlnatlon of Samuel
J. Tlldon and when tho Domooratlc
convention refused Tlldon this honor
the Ingratitude and folly of this con-
vention nedrly broko his hoart.
Mr Watterson was the father of the
famous sontenco Tariff for revenue
only." Later In tho campaign when
Iloscoe Conkling attackod this nlank.
every promlnont Democrat ran n
sholter uxcopt Henry Wnttorson. Ho
oravolv mi-nosUy. vigorously bv non
and voico defonded his position.
Whon defeat camo ho was sovorolv
censured by Democratic loadrs. But
in 1884 ho carried his point and wit
nessed victory and a thorough vln.
dlcatlon of his position. At tho con-
vention In Chicago Jn 1892 Senator
Vilas President Clovoland's spokes-
man rqad tho Democratic nlatform.
and whon It came to tho tariff plank.
Iv approved Incidental protection. It
was about 2 o'clock In tho mornimr.
Tho rnln was pouring through tho
wigwam. As Boon as Senator Vilas
had finished reading a motion was
nmdo to "adopt as read." Three-
fourths of tho delogatos ware for the
platform because VIlaB had read It
and he voiced Clovoland's "senti
ments." It was at this Juncture that
Honry Wattornon aroso. Ha walkod
calmly to tho front of tho platform. He
re-read the plank committing the
Democratic party to incldontal pro-
tection. Ho looKod Into the faces of
nearly 1000 dologatoa and alternates
and 20000 spectators all yelling voci-
ferously .for tho adoption of th'o Vilas
plank. Ho commenced to speak; his
wonuorruj voico ponotratod tho re-
motest cornor of that vast wigwam.
Silence fell over that immense audi-
ence; in fifteen minutes ho lad con
vinced tho .delegates of tho folly of
vllaa' plank; that It was un-Domo-
cratlc and against tho toaohlngs and
tho principles of Democracy. In vain
did Vilas plead. Wattorson's atnanU-
mont was adopted by a thrco-fmrrths
voto. It was tho triumph of principle
gained by tho master hand of olo
quence and logic.
