REPUBLICANS PLAN
TO SUE LOUISVILLE
PAPER FOR Libel

Louisville, KY, Nov. 4-(AP)-The
post election fanfarenade of charges
and denials Of fraud in the mayor
atty election blared forth today.
Leading the parade was a statement
from Republican headquarters that

gregate of $3,75O.o00 for libel of IS
Republican workers.

at the polls yesterday was accomp-
lished by fraud and then came a
statement from the Republicans pro-
claiming the fairness of the election
and the untruth of the Democratic
charges. The Republican statement
also limited that not everything was
regular in the conduct of Democrat
ic workers.
Complete returnc compiled by the
newspapers gave Will 58,205 and Jo-
seph T. O'Neal, Dem, 55,919, a lead
of 1885 for VIII.
Democrat campaign managers an
nounced they had begun compiling
evidence of alleged. fraud. The Re-
publicans counter with a reply that
they would be ready for the suit,
which would put the legality of the
election up to the court of appeals.
The court threw out the Republican
victory in the councilmanic election
Of two years ago as fraudulent and
illegal.
The statement regarding the suit
said that tomorrow rs Republican
workers would file suits for $4,000
each against the paper for reflect
ing libeliously" on the plaintiffs. The
suits. II brought, will constitute the
largest political damage action in
the history of American journalism.
! Mayor-elect Will will take the oath
Of office November II.
