A KENTUCKY PAPER ON BOEHNE.

(Madisonville, Ky., Hustler.) If the Democrats of the state of Indiana are as wise as we think they are and as wise as they should be they will make Hon. John W. Boehne their nominee for the next Governor of their state. While it has never been our pleasure to even see thp man to know him, and while.he is a citizen of another state from the one of our birth, yet we have for a number ol years been watching with a great deal of interest the career of this gentleman. As mayor of the city of Evansville, he made a reputation for honesty, integrity and a determination to see that the laws were enforced, such as was unknown to any of his predecessors. As a member of congress from his district he has reflected credit upon himself and the people he has Represented. We believe as Governor of his state that he would meet every requirement and would be a worthy man to succeed the present worthy occupant of that position. Just as certain as Tottf Taggart and the gang that is dominated by hi's 'influence should t defeat Boehne and nominate a man who is objectionable ’to the masses of the Democratic party and the Republicans should nominate a clean man, just that certain would the nominee of the Democratic party be defeated at the election next November. The voters are getting des perately tired of boss rule, or bossism in any form.
