SHALL KENTUCKY
ENDUHE-AWARGHY?
Governor Makes Stirring Ap
peal to End War in the ,
Tobacco Trade.
DRIVING OUT POPULATION
Wlllson Recommends Compulsory
Change of Venue and Inquiry
. Into Causes- of the War I'ni
form I.oeal Option Law.
FRANKFORT, Ky Jan. 8. The first
message of Governor A. E. Willson to
the Genera Assembly, read today, is
devoted largely to a tirring recital of
the lawlessness that has developed in
the tobacco war, accompanied by vigor
ous denunciation of the malefactors,
and two specific recommendations hav
ing for their object the -breaking up of
the trouble. In recounting these vari
ous outrages the Governor sums up as
follows:
In the meantime not a benefit has resulted
to the oppressed farmers from those acts of
violence and Intimidation. Even those who
were members of the association have their
property tied up. and liberty. In places threat
ened by these bands, i an Idle theory and
farce. Factories and warehouses which the
farmers warmly welcomed have been burned
and many others ielosed forever.
Terrible Result of Anarchy.
Our tobacco market is nearly destroyed.
Larie customers are being taught that it Is
safer and better to buy elsewhere; large crops
lemaln unsold; managers, who have been prom
Is d large prices for their pool crops above
the market price have seen buyers driven
from the field, and no one can tell when the
end will come. Everyone can sell that the
resulls up to this time are that our markets
not only for tobacco, but for other ' products,
are paralyzed, and in man- case ruined:
that in large districts the law has been whoily
overthrown and the poor people who have no
one to take care of them-are deprived of the
protection of the laws and have lost their
liberty and are helpless; that the price of
pearly every acre of good land In Kentucky
has gone down; that, thousands of people
wish to move out of Kentucky to states where1
they hope that It Is safer to live end that
the very flower . of our working population
wishes to leave the state. s thousands have
done before; that It lias been ncceaeary In
order to allay the fears of frljrhtened people,
even In a large city like Hopklnsvllle, to keep
a company uf military on duty, at great ex
pense, and with great hardship to the young
men. who are taken from their ordinary busi
ness and work; tha. lawless and unprincipled
men have been constantly ready to break out
In Btveral counties, unrestrained by law or
public sentiment, and that the people of Ken
tucky have suddenly and squarely to face the
question whether the law of more than two
millions or the violence of a few hundreds
shall provn.il." , .
Beticr Lose Land Than Liberty.
Thete can be no doubt of the final result.
Our pople desire the full protection of the
law and love their liberty and .feel they had
hetter lose not only part of. their valuable to
bacco, but even their farms, rather than lose
thrli- liberties. ,
The only question left' is whether this shall
be soon or long delayed; whether 1t shall be
at bncc. to prevent further injury, or whether,
continuing for months. It shall practically de
stroy the business and property value of the
wholepeoplc and diminish our population by
removals to olhr states.
The executive will- faithfully uphold the
law. hut It Is the people's law, and Its strength
is in their Kltnnnrt nt thplr .u-n la n-a.
Remedies He 0oses.
The message then makes specific
recommendations for amending the
statutes governing change of venue,
so that the granting of surh change
become imperative upon any Judge
where lawlessness or Intimidation hin
ders prompt and fair trials, and ap
pointment of a committee with full
power to Investigate the economic
causes leading up to the tobacco trou
bles, that Is to ascertain whether there
lias actually been an overproduction or
whether the prices have been forced
down by a trust or combination of
buyers. .
On temperance, the Governor reoom-
mends a uniform local option law with
the oounty as the uiite.: also important
chan-ares In the. laws governing regis
tration ami elections and compulsory
publicity of campaign contributions.

TWO FRANCHISES REVOKED
Council Proceeds Againt Market
Corporation Power Company.
'
Franchises held by the People's Mar
ket Company and the Cascade Power
Company were revoked by the City
Council at Its session , yesterday after
noon. The holders of each franchise
were declared by members of the
Council to have failed in the fulfillment
of the provisions of their grants.
Councilman Belding Introduced 'the
ordinance revoking the franchise of
the People's Market, and Councilman
Vaughn took similar initiative relative
to the Cascade Power Company.
In 1903 the Council granted a fran
chise to the Union Market Company to
establish a public market on the block
bounded by Second and Third and Clay
and Market streets. They or their suc
cessors or assigns were to construct a
$30,000 brick building for the exclu
sive use of the market. Councilman
Belding called, up the matter at yester
day's Council meeting, and declared
that none of the provision of the fran
chise had been complied with, and in
troduced an ordinance revoking the
'franchise.
Mayor Lane has repeatedly ralled'the
attention of the Council to the viola
tions of the franchise held by the Peo
pled Market Company, which succeeded
the Union Market- Company, and asked
for the revocation of the franchise.
More than one year ago he directed the
attention of the Council to the matter.
It is said that the building, which Is
used a the market, is being utilized
for all kinds of business, and that it Is
also in an unsanitary" condition. -
The Cascade Power Company never
did anything toward the enterprise
sought to" be undertaken bv its pro
moter beyond furnishing a bond of
1000. which will be returned to the
Company. It purposed to -construct a
large plant in Portland for the genera
tion of electric power. It was to have
begun the construction of the pro-,
jected plant within -on'e year from the
granting of. the franchise, but did noth
ing. . .
Backs Round-World Auto Race.
NEW YORK. Jan. 8. The executive
committee of the American Automobile
Association passed a resolution pledging
the association's help for the proposed
motor race from New York to Paris by
nnf of Alaska. Bering Strait and Siberia,
which is to be run under the auspices
of I Matin, of Paris, and the Times,

AGAIN LOSES SUIT
Court. Overrules Demurrer in
the -Marquam Case. .
ROSS BANK IS UPHELD
Circuit Judge Cleland Holds That
Plaintiff Is Not Entitled to Re
deem From Sale Under
Mortgage. '
The demurrer 'interposed by J. Thorburn
Ross, the Title Guarantee & Trust Com
pany, and the United States Mortgage &
Trust Company to the complaint in the
suit brought by P.' A. Marquam to re
deem the Marquam building from sale
under mortgage foreclosure was sustained
by Judge Cleland' in - the Circuit Court
yesterday morning, thereby ending the
suit. The ruling of the court 'was that
Marquam had not stated facts sufficient
to constitute a cause for action against
Ross and the trust company.
-Litigation over, the Marquam building
has been In progress for four years, a
suit similar to that dismissed yesterday
having been filed in the State Circuit
Court by' Marquam. In the first suit,
as in the others which have been filed,
he sought to redeem the property from
the J300.000 mortgage held by the United
States Mortgage Trust Company. The
money advanced to Marquam when the
mortgage was made by him in favor of
the United States company was advanced
by the Title Bank with Ross as president.
Professor Herman V. Htlprecb,
tailed ipon to Defend His Integ
rity as a Scholar.
Professor ' Herman V. Hilprecht,
who has been called upon by the
Council of' the Society of Biblical
Literature and Exegesis to make a
complete public reply to charges af
fecting 'his integrity In oriental
scholarship," is at the head of the
Assyriologicai section of the Univers
ity of Pennsylvania. He supervised
excavations made by an expedition -from
the University .of Pennsylvania
at Babylon and Nippur. Much ma
terial from the ruins uncovered by
him has been brought to the United
States, and Professor Hilprecht has
derived from it alleged discoveries
that are considered startling by
scholars. The charges are made by
Rev. John p. peters, of New York.
who as security for the money entered
into an agreement with the United States
Company whereby it could lay claim to
the Marquam building in case the mort
gage were foreclosed.
In the first suit for the privilege of re
deeming. Marquam won in the State Cir
cuit Court. The United States Company,
the Title Company, and Ross then ap
pealed to the State Supreme Court, and
the decision of the lower court was re
versed. Although the case was carried
to the Supreme Court twice when the
mortgage was first foreclosed, and twice
on the first suit. Attorney Watson, rep
resenting Marquam. declares It will again
be taken to the higher court, lbs was
granted 30 days to prepare an amended
complaint.
Attorney Wallace MeCamant for the
defense opposed, the granting of so much
time, saying that' the condition of affairs
with the Title Company rendered a speedy
realization on all Its securities imperative.
The United States Company, the Title
Company and Ross demurred to Mar
quam's complaint for the following rea
sons: .
First Because the Circuit Court has no
Jurisdiction to entertain a suit having for
its object the reversal of a Supreme Court
ruling.
2. Because the record was' not suf-.
ficlently pleaded in the present suit.
3. Because the present complaint,
filed by Marquam, does not state facts
euu numi to constitute a cause of suit.
The demurrer was sustained on the
first and third grounds, and overruled
on the second. ...
Judge Cleland construed the will of
W. C. Noon to be so worded that Mrs.
Noon is entitled to one-half of the
JUS. 427 dividend from stock of the w.
C. Noon Bag Company, holding that the
will does -not restrict her dower in
terest in. her husband's real estate.
The suit of the. Portland . Cordage
Company, involving the Tanner Creek
sewer, will have to go before a JurS
as Judge Cleland decided that onlv a
jury can settle' the questron of whether
or not the company's allegations are
true or false. The company brought'
suit against the city to restrain, it
from collecting an assessment for the
sewer work.
The informations against Sam I
Beary. Val Liddell and John Fisher,
charging them with selling obscene
postcards, are alike, except that in the
LtddeM and Fisher cases there is the
additional clause, "a further description
Is too gross and Indecent to allege,"
hence .TliHo-a Clelnnil IiaI . v. n . . i.
added clause saves the latter informa
tions. The demurrer in the case against
jsciirj- ne sustained, out overruled the
other two.
Judge Cleland affirmed his decision
which -he announced some time.-ago.
holding illegal the city bond Issues.
The suit was- brought against the city
'by, Francis I. McKenna. . "

that the Information did not state a cause
of action.. Judge Cleland .said In ren
dering his decision:
"In this information Is alleged an at
tempt to make the Mayor appear to be
guilty of an act of lewdness, to discover
him in the act. and to denounce, him. This
charge; in the opinion of the court, is suf
ficient to show an outrage against pub

Mayor adds nothing to the crtminality of
the charge. The court believes the de
murrer not to be defective, and the de
murrer is overruled."
