Extracts from Hon. Henry Watter- son’s Editorial in the Louisville Courier- Tournal of Feb. 3, 1899, Commenting on the Foregoing Address.

“In its way this is unique. It stands alone. It ought to become a classic. One may smile at its simple sincerity, but it is replete with pathos. There is food for tnougt in every line of it. * * At the time when Bob Taylor allowed himself to be nominated for Governer, * * he delibertely abandoned an in- come of from $25,000 to $40,000, * *

But there is one thing he can surely do. He can take up the tale where he left it off, * * the same delightful, scintil- lant, captivating personality. * *

Though time be fleeting, art is long, and he is an artist, evey inch is him.” —
