PardOned.

Lexington, KY, Jan. 10.-W.W. Byr-
ley, of Barboursville, KY, fellow towns
man OF Caleb Powers, and chairman
of the Eleventh Congressional District
Republican Committee, while in Lex
ington to-day announced that the Re-
publicans of the Eleventh district
propose to send Powers to Congress at
the coming November election in
event Gov. Wilson grants pardon.
81 think l know the feeling and SEN
timent of the people of the Eleventh
district" said he, land Powers will
be nominated without opposition by
his party If he is given his liberty
and will run. He is held in high es-
TEEN by the Republicans of his old
home district who feel that he has
been a badly prosecuted man and to
compensate for the wrong he has suf-
fered they will unhesitatingly confer
upon him any office within their
gift" Byrley returned from a visit

The New Year is bringing new life
to the X. of P's. Many new petitions
have been received and with the I'M
firing energy and perseverance Of our
Chancellor Commander, r. d. Walker,

he Lorisvllle Times saws:

The Louisville Times says:
The Twelfth Ward Republican Club
of Louisville, and host of Repub-
lican organizations throughout Ken
lucky are signing petitions and re-
questing good citizens to join them
in signing these petitions asking the
Governor to pardon Caleb Powers and
Jim Howard. The Times has some
doubt as to Howard firing the shot
that killed Gov. Goebel, but it has,
from the evidence, never had the
slightest doubt that Caleb Powers
had full knowledge as to who COM
mitted the cowardly assassination,
and that IL was done with the ap-
proval and sanction of Taylor and the
Powers brothers, Caleb and John.
We suggest to the Republicans who
are so active in the pardon petition
matter that they secure a list of
all the Republicans in Kentucky pen
itentiaries and include them in their
request to Gov. Wilson. No man in
the State penitentiaries is less gull
ty than Powers and to pardon all Re-
publicans iE State prisons would about
solve the problem of caring for the
prisoners, q vast majority of them
having acquired the habit of stamp
ing under the log cabin.

THE RESOLUTIONS

The resolutions, which were unani-
mously adopted called particular at
tention TO the difference between the
might riders" and the unarmed day
riders" and at the same time asking
for the enforcement of the law against
the trust as well as against the night
rider in the following language:
- Resolved, That we do here declare
Mat the principles of the American So
ciety OF Equity demand the enforce
ment OF the law against all citizens
of the Commonwealth Of Kentucky,
and of the nation, whether the same
be a trust, an aggregation of wealth,
or the humblest farmer engaged In
earning a living for his dependent
family, and that we condemn, with
out reservation, all violations of law,
whether it be the trust magnates or
humble citizens, commonly denominat-
ed might riders" Be 1t further
y Resolved, That there is wide dis
tinction and an insurmountable bar
rier between the lawful and the law
abiding band of American farmers,
known as the American Society Of
Equity, who chose from their number
peaceable, law-loving, temperate, dis
Greet, sober and unarmed men, who,
by daylight, go to their friends and
humbly plead with them to refrain
from acts harmful to the petitioners
and families, and those others, who,
lhnder the cover of darkness, their
identity being concealed by a mask,
with no light save the flaming torch,
that go forth to destroy property and
interferA with the rights Of peaceable
citizens. The first of these we declare
to be emissaries of peace, while the
latter are common criminals, whose
acts are unjustly charged to the So
ciety of Equity, or other lawful as
sociations. And We now declare that
all charges, whether made by the
Chief Executive of the State of Ken
tucky. or the subsidized press, that
the American Society of Equity is
chargeable or responsible for any law
iessness inKentucky are without foun-
dation and unjust to the association,
and all charges that its officers have
in any way deluded or deceived the
civil officers, are likewise without
foundation, and we further declare
that the association has no worse
enemy, not even the trust. than those
who would. in It's name, violate the!
laws of the land"

to pass bill to prohibit the use of

A SPLENDID RECORD
AS Presiding Judge in the
Sixth District.
MADE BY JUDGE BIRKHEAO
Few Reversals on Appeal at
His HandS-LiSt of
Noted Cases.

Persons who have been in a Cir
cult Court room anywhere in the Sixth
Judicial District and observed the
manner in which things proceed
along with Judge Thomas Firman
Birkhead on the bench, know that, in
point of trying cases with dispatch
and saving expense to the common
wealth, he is one of the best judges
that has ever been on the bench in
this district He has, in fact, clean
ed up the dockets to such an extent
that there is little left for a court
to do.
Some who have watched the rapid
grind of the court over which Judge
Birkhead presides may have been in
clined to think that there was not
sufficient elaboration and that some
thing of judicial caution and certain
ty as to the law Was being sacri-
feed for the benefit of brevity.
1t seems, however, to be an estab-
lished fact that Judge Birkhead knows
the law. Probably not another Circuit
Judge in the commonwealth of Ken
lucky has so good a record as to cases
on appeal. During the year 1906 twen-
ty-nine cases decided by Judge Birk-
head were taken to the Court of APP
peals. OF these twenty-nine, TWEEN
ty-five were affirmed by the court OF
last resort in the State. Four were
reversed. This is a record of mora
than eighty-six per cent, of decisions
in appealed cases affirmed.
The list of cases appealed from
the Daviess Circuit Court and decided
by the Court of Appeals since the
converting of the Court of Appeals at
its September term. 1906, follows:

TO REBUILD NAVY
We DESTROYED IN
WAR WITH SPAIN
American Shipbuilders Expect
Boom When Big Contracts Are
Received in Few Weeks.
Especial to the Evening star.l

NEW YORK, July 22.-The navy Of
Spain which was destroyed by the guns
of Admiral Dewey at Manila and the
Sampson -Schley fleet at Santiago, is
to be rehabilitated by United States
shipbuilders.
Spain Is to spend $50,00o,000 in pro-
viding herself with the latest type OF
battleships and cruisers and in few
weeks the contracts will be signed"
said one of the best known steel eX-
perts in America, who recently re-
turned to this country from Europe.
1t is said that several shipbuilding
concerns in this country will obtain
contracts representing $25,000,000. These
orders will mean the employment of
hundreds of skilled workmen and me-
chanics.
The news OF the intention of Spain
to reconstruct it's navy has caused a
genuine feeling of optimism among
leading financiers and business men in
this country. Charles NJ. Schwab,
chairman and president of the Bethle-
hem Steel Company and former head
of the United States Steel Corporation
declares that the country is due for
period of prosperity such as has not
been known in several decades.

Advocates Using State Street

It has been recommended to a sub
committee of the Board of Education's s
teachers committee by DR.. A. B. Po-
land, superintendent of public schools,
that ten classrooms of the State Street
School be vacated in September by
sending the pupils to Burnet Street
School, and that the State Street School
be used as an annex for the Barringer
High School, which will be overcrowd-
ed when the fall term opens.
DR.. Poland also proposed that the
school for negro children in Market
street be also used as a High School
annex, and the negro pupils be sent to
the Commerce Street School. The Mar
ket street building will accommodate
eight High School classes The Wick
life Street School will be abandoned
when the new Warren Street School
addition Is completed, and DR.. Poland
advised that the old building be used
for intermediate classes for the two un-
graded classes from the old Commerce
Street School.
