Famous Kentuckian Who Served

leged Connection With Goebel
Murder Claims Vindication.
The republican congressional pri
mary in the Eleventh Kentucky
district nominated Caleb Powers,
of Barboursville, over Congressman
D. C. Edwards, stand-patter, by
4,000. National issues did not en
ter into the race.
Powers, who was a famous pris
oner, regards the result as his vin
dication.
Powers’ eight years’ imprison
ment because of bis alleged connec
tion with the Goebel assassination
has be 9 n an issue in the campaign,
as he used his “martyrdom,” as he
called it, in appealing for votes.
Bitter personalities marked the can
vass, and as a result, leaders of both
sides were busy yesterday trying to
keep down trouble.
In the adjoining county of Casey
there were five fights between Ed
wards and Powers partisans, pistols
and knives being freely used. Sev
eral men are said to have been bad
ly hurt in a free-for-all melee near
Yosemite, in which the Edwards
men came off second best.

“Georgia Cyclone” Wins Unusual
Victory for Prohibition In Flor
ida.
Perry, Fla., Sept. 16.—At an en
thusiastic rally for state-wide pro
hibition at the court house here last
night, William D. Upshaw, the At
lanta editor and orator, won an un
usual victory over the saloon men.
In company with several prominent
citizens, including ministers, he
had visited the four saloons in town
in the afternoon, shaking hands
with the proprietors and inviting

And Uses It in Effort to Appease
Insurgents Without Oilending
Regulars—'Treat All Alike.
A dispatch from Beverly, Mass.,
says:—President Taft hereafter will
recognize no difference between the
so-called “Progressives” and the
“Regulars,” but in the matter of
federal support all party leaders will
be treated as republicans. The
President’s views to this effect were
given in a letter from Secretary
Norton to a republican leader in
Iowa, whose name is disclosed.
