Richard Wilson Knott provides an update on the Kentucky Republican convention. William O’Connell Bradley and John Watson Yerkes are vying for leadership but both should be acceptable to the Roosevelt administration. Bradley outmaneuvered Yerkes and his resolution for endorsement was carried. Knott was pleased with the convention and believes that the Republicans have a chance to win.
