| He spoke Of the hope and encour-
Iagement with which he had met or
his campaign tour in the state. and
said there was a general uprising OF
the earnest thinking people against
the thralidom Of the Frankfort ring.
Mr.. Wilson's recital OF the frauds
committed at various precincts in the
machine primary last fall gave much
amusement to his audience. as his
reading of the names of tle voters
at the Franklin county precinct in
1903. when kitchen utensils, house
hold furniture and trees OF the for
est were made TO vote.
''The imputation Of small politi-
clans that 100000 Republicans H.
Kentucky sympathized with the
crime of the Goebel murder is not
taken seriously by thinking men, ."
declared Mr.. Wilson. "What justifies
such an imputation? Is that a square
deal to put the stigma OF that crime
on $4,000 Kentucky neighbors?
81 know no politics in crime and
the man who is in your jail charged
with a serious crime will have a fair
trial the same as anyone else when
am governor, not according to poll
ties or name or church, but trusting
20 the integrity OF a great people.
There is no fairness in putting into
politics anything which affects
mans life or honor and honorable
Kentuckians want nothing of that
sort.
Other governors have not trust
ed our administration. but when /
am governor, Kentucky will be Sc
respected that every governor Of,
other states will comply with Ken
tucky's lawful acquisitions and the
men who are charged with crime will
come back for fair trials.
IF any man wants other than al
fair trial for these men he'd better
vote for someone else. None OF you
believe the statement of Mr.. Hager
that / would pardon any OF these
men without fair trials. | am an Old
lawyer; | know the constitution AMI
law and the governors duty, and re-
alize fully that the power of pardon
does not belong to governor. but
10 the people of his state. | never
would prostitute that power"
Mr.. Wilson became so earnest in
telling about the reforms he would |
bring about If elected governor that
he shouted: Before / get through !
the work III even free the Democrats !
from the blight at Frankfort"
In discussing the Infamous election
frauds in Louisville, Mr.. Wilson
said that it would perhaps be but
fair If he laid them to the Democratic
party, inasmuch as the Goebel crime |
was imputed to the Republican.
Is Too Generous.
He believed, however, in being
more generous. he said, and felt that
he honorable men in both parties
lid not condone or tolerate such
hings.
"The machine leader neglected to
ell the people" Mr.. Wilson said,
that Auditor Stone turned over to
lis successors nearly enough money
o pay of the 81 100000 bond issue
4 the Bradley administration, while
hey were sending forth the misin-
ormatlon that the Indebtedness was

WERE SEEN ALL
DURING THE DRIVE
Friends OF Estes Say He and Miss

YOUNG LADY WAS SICK
Gentleman Passed Them as Estes
Was Evidently Administering

Especial to The Times-Dispatch.l

Especial to The TimeS-DiSpatch.1
CHARLOTTESVILLE. VA, May Ia
Interest in the Loving Estes affair CON
tinues at a high pitch. partly because
there is a belief that important dis
closures are to come. This belief is
strengthened by the fact that from
time 70 time new facts transpire, as
well as by the reticence of the two
families most concerned.
1t Is probable that most of the story
is now known, and that the only mys-
teries, If any remain. are connected with
that chapter OF the tragedy which con-
tains the story of the drive. The
friends of the dead man say that they
Will be able to present The entire story
of the drive from the time Estes left
his own home with the flask of whis-
key until he returned with Miss Loving
to the Kidd residence about Z O'Clock
In the evening.
There was another driver on the road
who left Lovingston at the same time
rode In the wake of the Estes buggy
until 1t stopped at narrow place in
the road near a church. When this
gentleman passed the couple and spoke
to them, Estes was on the ground rem
dering some service to Miss Loving
who was apparently sick. On the re-
turn, the couple. so say Estes's friends,
were seen at every. point.
The point of chief interest seems 10
be in the answer to the question. What
explanation did Miss Loving give on
her return?" The truth is, she prob
ably made none. 1t is known that she
was put to bed; that her uncle. Mr..
Harry Snead. was in the room with her
as were also Mrs. Kidd and Miss Kidd;
that Miss Loving complained OF, being
cold: that a fire was made and tina:
her nausea returned = was then sug-
gested that a doctor be called. and
Theodore Estes. who was sitting on
the Kidd porch. went for DR.. w. A
Strother The uncle went out of the
room, the doctor administered morphine
and mustard water, but made no eXaml-
nation beyond taking her pulse
respiration.
Another fact, which the partisa
Young Estes narrate as signihcant, Is
that what remained of the linuor in
the flask was given to the stabe-boy
when Estes turned over the team to
him. and what remained. about three
fingers. was drunk without any III eff
fects ensuing.
