And Grandpa in the honored chair,
Smiles in each happy f.ce;
So thankful are they he il still

Where parting 10 no more.

CLOSING ARGUMENTS
IN The POWERS TRIAL
Large Crowd Hears Camp
BELLS Address to Jury.
HE ELIMINATES Politics

He Pleads With the Jury to Bring In
a Verdict Based on the Evidence.
Makes Strong Plea For the Convic-
ton of the Accused.
GEORGETOWN, Ky, Aug. II. = The
largest crowd that has yet been in at.
tendance at the Powers trial thronged
the courthouse this morning, this being
the closing day of the argument The
crowd was not entirely local, but con-
tanned many visitors from central Ken
lucky counties The proceedings wero
delayed some time OH account of the
absence of the defendant who was
brought in later IN charge of q deputy.
Colonel T. O. Campbell of Cincinnati
began addressing the jury at $50 o'clock.
In his preliminary remarks Colonel
Campbell took occasion to regret the
heated state of political feeling in Ken
lucky, and appealed to the jury to not
think of politlcs, but to weigh the evil
dence and return verdict based upon
that.
Colonel Campbell took up the evil
dence Of various witnesses and discussed
its bearing upon the case. He declared
that the murder of Goebel had for its
object the permanent installation of an
organization of political buccaneers in
the mountains whose strongest ally was
great corporation to which Goebel had
been thorn in the flesh. Culton, Col
den and Noakes were good enough to
take charge of the mountain army and
manage Powers political affairs in Jan.
uary, but it suits the purposes of the de.
Tense now to seek to impeach their We.
racity and character, since they had
weakened and confessed the details of
the conspiracy. Powers own admissions
on the stand corroborating everything
Oulton had said was sufficient to hang
him, the speaker declared.
Campbell continues:
"All shreWd criminals, of which class
Caleb Powers is one, first arrange for an
allbi. The mountain army was brought
to Frankfort Jan. % and, thinking il
would perform its murderous mission,
Powers goes to bed at the house of John
Davis, a conspirator, but the foul deed
is not committed and Powers leaves his
bed and waits for another day. On Jan.
30, the second appointed day, he delves
deep into the work of establishing an
advance alibi. He goes into exhaustive
details of locking his Office, though he
never locked it before, and leaving for
Louisville on pretense of bringing more
men to Frankfort This time the plan
is better laid and as soon as the assas
sins bullet is fired from the secretary OF
states office Powers raises his hand and
exclaims: i am innocent, because was
