This young lady. it is stated, will be
placed on the witness stand by the
defense. 1t is held that the produc-
tion of evidence that Estes had, on
previous occasions, offered girls IL
quor, coupled with the fact that Judge
Loving waited until the day after the
alleged occurrence and. after both he
and his wife had talked with their
daughter before hunting for and kill
ing Estes, will have weight in favor
of the former jurist.
The Estes family. on the other hand,
are firm in their belief in the inno-
cence of young Estes of the alleged
wrongdoing and are preparing to make
a vigorous effort to convict Judge
Loving of the murder. The family
has engaged Daniel Harmon, of Char
lottesville, one of the ablest lawyers
of the state, to assist in the prosecu-
ion. Judge Loving likewise has en-
gagged eminent counsel in the persons
of John L. Lee, of Lynchburg, and r.

Astoria, appointed a committee and in
tructed 1t to call the attention of Presi-
dent Roosevelt to what the association
asserts is an unlawful combination of
paper manufacturers to keep up the price
of white paper and to demand relief from
what they consider an oppressive burden.
The action is the subject of numerous
opinions here from both sides in the form
of interviews.
Herman Ridder, president of the Ameri-
can Newspaper Publishers association
and publisher Of the Staats Zeitung, said:
This is a fight in the common interest.
The printing and newspaper industry Is
the third largest business in the United
States. It's future cannot be left to the
mercy of a few manufacturers who hide
behind the tariff and hold it up Paper is

of a tariff war, which would otherwise
make such investment unsafe"

Iieves Democrat Has a
Good Chance

NEW YORK, Sept 21.-Dr. Nicholas
Murray Butler, president of Columbia
university, who returned from Europe
on Friday. In an interview on the present
noIitfcai situation, especially in relation
TO the Forthcoming presidential campaign,
sounded a note of warning to the Re-
publican party in connection with tne
tariff and trust problems
President Butler is a Republican ana a
warm friend of President Roosevelt He
would not discuss the personnel or
strength of probable candidates for the
uresidency, saying he had not yet gone
into the situation thoroughly, but was
about to do so, and would be ready 10
give his views In the course OF rev
days. He, however, agreed that during
his absence abroad the claims OF Gov
ernor Hughes for consideration had I'M
proved considerably.
In speaking of the situation DIR. Butler
said:
"It seems to me that despite all that
has been said or written the outlines OF
the next presidential campaign have not
clearly been defined.
Democratic President Possible
Developments of the last tsA years
have certainly played havoc with old
marty lines and old party distinctions,
and I very much question whether the
general assumption which find a great
many people make, that the candidate
Of the Republican party will be elected
whoever 1t is, will be found TO pc true.
"I think that the present temper OF
the people will demand not merely tne
usual conventional party pledges, put
something definite in the way OIL ooh-
structive legislation.
s.T think that in the first place the time
has come when the Dingley tariff has
cot to be revised in the interest or
business interests, and not in any sense
al an attack on business or disturb
ance of business. 1t seems to be clear
that the vast majority of the people OF
the country of all parties virtually ac-
cent the protectionist principle, but imam
cial and commercial developments Oh the
last decade make 1t necessary to race
without delay revision of the existing
tariff, and this revision not be up-as
some neople are insane enough to sup
pose-but down.
Need Not Inlure Business
sThis can be accomplished without the
slightest injury to business If 1t is done
In a fair-minded and scientific fashion.
The expanding business OF the country
needs every dollar to be a circulating
medium and the collection In tarln taxes
If bigger surplus, which is withdrawn
from the normal course Of business, and
offers a constant temptation to legislative
extravaeance. is unstatesmanlike and un-
economic.
S..In NV judgment, therefore. the Re-
nuhlican marty will be held by the voters
and all the best sentiment of the party
itself to definite pledge of tariff re-
