a decision affirming the sentence OF
John r. Walsh to five years in the fed

a precedent in banking cases that has
been rendered in years.
There was big crowd in the court
room, but it was absolutely silent
when the curtains parted and the

TOLD To KILL

Governor Wilson Urges Drastic
Measures in Kentucky.

famed by Public Statement Issued
by kentuckys Executive in Which
He Advocates the Forming of Liber-
ty Leagues and the Killing of the
Nocturnal invaders - State Faces
Civil War.
In an open letter to citizen Of
Nicholas county, Governor Wilson
suggested the formation of a free pool
in the various communities where
night riding is said again to be threat
ening in Kentucky.
The governor had been receivins
letters all of last week from persons
in the hurley growing district who
professed to be in great fear as re-
suit of threats following their refusal
TO enter the hurley tobacco pool re-
Gently declared
"kiI the Nocturnal INVADERS"
"Organize liberty leagues and kill
the nocturnal invaders" is the advice
Of the governor.
In this statement the governor has
set the whole of the hurley and dark
tobacco district afiame.
mo man should pool his tobacco
unless he wants to and will pardon
any man who resorts to arms to pro-
tect his home" the executive eontin-
ues.
That civil war will follow in Ken
lucky as result of this statement
would not surprise anyone, for the sit
uation is tense and the crisis for the
Independents or the organization men
will be reached within the next few
days. Many think that the Statement.
of the governor will mean the failure
of the pool.
The governor ADDS: You will re
member that l have made public ad
dresses to our people asking them to
defend their homes and assured them
that If they did defend their homes
and were careful not to make mis-.
take and kill any innocent person, but
simply acted in necessary defense of
their lives, liberty and property, they
would not need any lawyer. | have
never withdrawn that proclamation.
Governor Asks Questions.
eff mems interest in a business leads
them to form combination to raise
the price on their crops, which is en-
tirely proper and wise If lawfully car
ried on, and they fall into lawlessness,
why should not self-respecting Ken
tuckians form liberty or freedom
pool, a thousand times more serious
and earnest than any pool for money
profits, and why should they not fight
for their liberties when the law is be-
hind them and the state government
is with them?'
Governor Wilson has left for Bos-
ton. He will not be at home to see
the effect OF his letter, but it is feared
that bloodshed will follow.
