Fraxkkort, Ky., March 10. What;
promised to be the most seneational day
in the senatorial fight was begun with a
proclamation from Governor Bradley,
Issued this morning, calling out the state
troops. The proclamation declared :
For several days past an armed body
of desperate men have, by their threats
andj demonstrations, intimidated and
overawed the members of the general
assembly ; a number cf the said persons
assaulted Senator C. J. Walton and pre
vented him from colon out of the senate
chamber; a party of tbe said persons, in
like manner, took possession of the door
of the house while the joint assembly
was in session, assumed to decide who
should enter the chamber of the house
when tho said session was being held,
and on the 14th- day of March persons
were sworn in as deputy sergeant-at-arms
of the senate, who thereupon forci
bly Gcized tho doorkeeper of the house
of representatives, while the general as
sembly was in joint session, and pre
vented him from exercising the duties of
h'i3 office and allowed persons to enter
who were not entitled to a place on the
floor. The presence of those men pre
vented the members from voting in the
joint session, and the civil authorities
have, at no time, arrtsted any of these
rioters or armed persons, but have per
mitted them to continue their work of
intimidatiou."
Upwards of 400 soldiers occupy the
statchousc square.
Governor Bradley was in consultation
all the morning with Adjatant-General
Collier, and Colonels Castleman and
Gaitber. These gentlemen agreed that
(here will ue no difficulty in preventing
trouble.
"1 W3ii to say," saw me governor,
"I hat the military was called out to pro
tect the members of the legislature from
mob violence, and not to protect
self "
Colonel Jack Chinn came down this
rooming from llarrodsbiirg.
"I have telegraphed an unconditional
surrender," he eaid, "this is enough for
me."
ulackburu men call (tie governor's
action an outrage. '
A meeting of the citizens of Frankfort
was calleu to protest against tlie pres
ence of the militia in this city.
"This "display of force will stop all
legislation," said Senator Blackburn this
morning. "Nothing shall be done.
would like to see the revenue bills or any
thing else get through now."
Just before 11 o'clock Sergeant-at-
Artns Summers, of the senate, entered
the lower door of the statehouse with his
six assistants, summoned Saturday.
These men were halted by Captain
Gaines, Summers protested that they
were his assistants, and he bad affidavit
that they were entitled to enter. The
captain was firm, however, and they
walked out without attempting to force
their way upstairs. Everything before
the convening of the two nouses was
quiet as could be.
When the joint session convened the
roll-call ehowoJ 6G present. Neither the
democrats nor populist responded. The
president announced no quorum. On
tbe ballot for senator ocly one vote was
cast, that of Speed for Bovle. Both re
publicans and democrats, with this ex
caption, refused to respond.
The joint assembly then adjourned un
til tomorrow.
There was not standing room in the
courthouse when tho indignation meet
ing was called to order to protest against
the action of Governor Bradley in calling
out the troops.
Mayor Julieu told of his conference
with Governor Bradley, in which he
assured tho executive he would give am
pie protection, and characterized tho
covernor's action as hichly partisan and
unbecoming.
Lx-Attornsy-ueneral llendrick nomi
nated Judge Lysander Hoard as chair
man of tho meeting in a speech scoring
tlio governor, and he took the chair amid
a wild burst of enthusiasm.
Speeches wero made by Colonel E. II
Taylor and others, denouncing the action
of Governor Bradley in severe terms.

Cuba, and that it was the intention
tho patriols to perfect the systpm of
government in Cuba in order to induce
more substantial support from other
countries, including the United States,
than that of mere sympathy.
This fact did not deter the Cubans
from loading her decks down with gun
powder and arm3 for the insurgents in
Cupa, and in all 40 tons of ammunition
and guns wero placed on board the Ber
muda and also several cases containing
dynamite.

BINQER HERMANN.
With the writer of this article there is
one thing that renders assurance
doubly sure that Mr. Hermann
will be nominated and re-elected con-
gressman from this district, and that ono
thing is, the opposition of the Oregonian
to bis re-election. 'All alongin the past
it has been a proverb that, what the
Oregonian condemns and opposes with
bitter malignity always comes out first
best, and leaves the Oregonian to mourn
over its ailing efforts to mislead the
people. The Oregonian has read out all
free silver men from the ranks of tho
Republican parly, wherein it says "no
man can be a free-silver man and a re
publican at the same time."
We have aa extensive acquaintance in
the state, and considerable correspond
ence with republicans, and we can as
sure the Oregonian that there is a host
of republicans, a majority of them who
favor the election of Binger Hermann,
and who also favor the free - coinage of
silver, but who at the same time regard
the silver question as of secondary im
portance to that of tho qu sti;n of pro
tection to American industries. The Or
egonian is an influential journal in a cer
tain sense, and claiming to be an expo
nent of republican principles, it should
exert its influence towards creating har
mony in the party ranks, rather than to
create dissension by the denunciation of
certain members of the party.
Now, we claim as large an acquaint-
adce with'the voters of tbi3 district as
any man living in it, and we assert with
entire confidence in the correctness of
the assertion, that Binger Hermann
stands first and foremost as the choice of
the republican voters of this district as
tho man worthy of, and who should re
ceive the nomination for congress at tho
coming state convention.
No charges of corruption have ever
been preferred against Mr. Hermann, for
in f-tct no charges of that character could
in anywise be substantiated. He has
performed his duty manfully and has put
forth bis beat efforts to promote their in
terests, and if in any instance he has
failed to effect legislation demanded, it
has not been from the want of honest and
arduous labors in their behalf, but for
the reason of insurmountable obstacles.
