FRANKFORT, KY, Nov. S-New
light was thrown on outstanding char.
acter-the figure of Abraham Lincoln
today, when President Taft, who came
here to witness a dedication Of the
monument to the "emancipator" said:
II don't think It's too much to say
Lincoln had the most judicial temper
aEaent Of any man in history"
Taft paid a tribute with that OF
Kentucky's mark of reverence of the
greatest son, in the new state capitol
when the monument to the war presi-
dent, given by the descendent Of the
long line of Kentucky pioneers, was
dedicated. Prior to the ceremonies
Taft talked to a score OF old negroes
who become freed under the Lincoln
administration. The negroes had new
er seen a president before.
FRANKFORT. KY, Nov. S.-While
the presiden' of the United States
and a vast assemblage of people, in
cluding many o. those who were
greatly in conflict between the north
and south, look on today, a heroic
statue of Abraham Lincoln was un'
veiled in the capitol building here, IN
proof of a reunited country" said
Governor Wilson of Kentucky, in &C.
Ger pting the statue on behalf OF the
state. Henry Watterson, a Confeder-
ate soldier, was selected formally to
present this image of the great presi'
dent to the people Of his native state.
The greatness and goodness, nobility
and sweetness of Abraham Lincoln
are recognized as earnestly by those
who wore the gray as by those who
wore the blue.
The unveiling of the Lincoln statue
precedes the dedication of the Lin
coin memorial at Hodgeville, KY, by

It is the dedication of this memorial
monumental structure recently COM
pleted on the farm on which Lincoln
was born that will attract President
Taft and other notables to Hodge

Early returns from various states
today make it plain that Gov Eugene
H. Foss, Democrat, will be the head
of the state for another year, but he
will, as in the past, be surrounded by
Republican state officers.
Indications at Albuquerque are that
the Democrats have triumphed in
New Mexico. This was the first elec.
tion held in New Mexico. which is
now a state. The Republicans, how
ever, still hope to control the legisla-
ture and elect a United States SEN
ator.
In Maryland the returns are coming
in slowly, but it seems certain that
Phillip Lee Goldsborough, Republican,
was elected governor.
There were reversals in Kentucky
and Ohio. In the former state ma.
jorities were given practically to all
the Democratic candidates, and James
Bennett McCreary was elected gov
ernor by more than 10000. The state
legislature will have Democratic
majority of IS, sufficient to secure the
election to the United States senate
of Congressman Ollie James. Munic'
ipal elections in Ohio resulted in 4
victory for George j. karb Demo.
crat, candidate for mayor of Colum'
bus.
Democratic mayors in Cincinnati
and Columbus also were elected
Two states, New York and New
Jersey, replaced Democratic assem-
blies with Republicans. New York
elected an assembly that will have a
Republican majority greater than the
present Democratic majority in the
lower branch of the legislature.
In New York city the Republicans
generally speaking, had the best of it.
Tammany retained it's grip on Man.
haitian and the Bronx, but it lost
Brooklyn and the control of the board
of aldermen.
In New Jersey, which has a demo.
cratic assembly and a republican SEN
ate, the republicans will have control
of both houses. A democratic gov
ernor and state officers we're elected
in Mississippi and republican exec
utive was chosen in Rhode Island,
