LOUISVILLE. Ky, Feb. 15.-The action
OF United States Judge Taft, in deciding
that he had no jurisdiction in the minor
Office contests in Kentucky. will have no
bearing on the gubernatorial contest. In
his opinion, Judge Taft saiG that the prop
er way to get 81 tnding an the Federal
courts was TO let the cases take their
course through the State courts, and then
get into the United States Svprem2 Court
on a writ Of error.
Judge Ycst, for the Republicans. de-
clarcs that If the suit filed IN Louisville
was noted before the one in Frankfort
then. since both suits are OF a similar na-
ture. the suit at Frankfort must be seht
to Louisville for trial along with the other
one. He said if the decision was against
the Republicans in Jefferson county, il
would be carried 20 the Court Of Appeals,
and If the Court or Appeals should decide
against the Republicans they would carry
it 10 the Supreme Court Of the United
States on a writ Of error. This action,
Judge Yost said. would open up the whole
controversy before that tribunal. This. he
intimsted. was the action which the Re
puDlicans were anticipating. The fight now
is to decide whether the suit filed by Tay-
