STATE SENATOR LINN KENTUCKY'S GOVERNOR For A Few Hours Only Is He Chief Executive Wllison And Cox Out of The Commonwealth. UNAWARE OF THE HUN QK. Frankfort, Ky., Nov. 17. Ken tucky to-night has u Democratic Governor, Conn Luiti, president pro tern of Senate, being temporarily in the Governor's chair during the absence from the State of Governor Willson and Lieut. Governor W. II. Cox. Mr. Lion succeeds to the Governor's chair when both the Gov ernor anu liieutcntaut uovcrnor arc out of the State or die. The former contingency has happened, Governor Willson was due m the State at one o'clock this aftarnoon, but stopped over in Philadelphia for a few hours aud so did not reach Kentucky until Thursday morning bout it o'clock Gov. Cox left Kcutucky, on his way to Florida for a hunting trip this afternoon at -1 o'clock, hen he left the borders of the State Mr. Linn became acting Governor. Ths is the first time that a Democrat ever acted as Governor during a Republican administration. It is not the first time that the president pro tern, of the Senate anted as Governor, however, as Senator George Hickman sat in the Guvcrn's chair for two days, while president pro tern, of the Senate during the abccncc from the State of Gov. Bcekham and Lieut. Gov. Thornc. Mr. Linn probably will not know that he was Governor for a fow hours until Thursday when he sees the newspapers. It would have been impossible for him to reach Frank-,fort, so he was not notified that, he was actually acting Governor. As he was not in Frankfort there was but little that he could have done and it is doubtful if he could havo even granted a pardon without the seal of the State and the Secretary of State's name on it. But Mr Linn will be known as Governor after this, and he has a right to the title. Honor Roll For Crayne School. Jessie Carlton, 8;).
