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 HONOR.
Frankfort, Ky. , Nov. 17. Kentucky
to-night lias a Democratic
Governor, Conn Linn, 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. H.
Cox. Mr. Linn succeeds to the
Governor's chair when both the Governor
and Lieutcntaut Governor arc
out of the State or die. The former
contingency has happened, Governor
Willson was due in the State at one
o'clock this aftarnoon, but stopped
over in Philadelphia for a few hours
and so did not reach Kentucky until
Thursday morning ubout 3 o'clock
Gov. Cox left Kentucky, on his
way to Florida for a hunting trip
this afternoon at 4 o'clock. When
ho left the borders of the State Mr.
Linn became acting Governor.
Tlrs is the first time that a Democrat
over acted as Governor during a
Republican administration. It is
not the first time that the president
pro tern, of the Senate acted as Gov.
ernor, however, as Senator George
Hickman sat in the Govcrn's chair
for two days, whilo president pro
tern, of the Senate during the abcencc
from the State of Gov. Beckham and
Lieut. Gov. Thome.
Mr. Linn probably will not know
that ho was Governor for a few hours
until Thursday when he sees the
newspapers. It would bavo been
impossible for him to reach Frankfort,
so he was not notified that, he
was actually acting Governor. As
he was not in Frankfort there was
but little that he could havo 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 bo known as Governor after this,
and he has a right to the title.
