of said crime, including this affiant, have been agitated and discuss~
ed throughout the State of Kentucky in every political campaign in
said State since 1900; the year in which said tragedy occurred, down
to the present time; and that on the part of the campaign managers
of the Democratic Party and on the part of many leaders and represenw
tatives of the Democratic Barty an effort has been made throughout
the seven years which have intervened since the assassination of said
Goebel, to fix the responsibility for said crime upon this affiant
and upon the Republican Party, the Party with which this affiant has
always affiliated; and it has been currently charged throughout the
State of Kentucky and the cities and counties thereof during the
seven years last past, that this affiant and his immediate party
associates were directly responsible for the commission of said crime;
and the effort has constantly been made on the part of the Democratic

7 leaders and Democratic press of the State to make the responsibility
for said crime and the guilt or innocence of this affiant and those
charged with him with the commission of said crime a political issue
between the two leading and dominant political parties of the State,
to~wit the fiemocratic and Republican parties. In confirmation of
this statement, affiant states that in the Democratic Campaign Hand
Book issued and circulated throughout the State of Kentucky in behalf

‘ of the Democratic ticket voted for at the general state election held

in Kentucky on the fifth day of the present month, November 1907,
thirteen cages or more of said book were devoted to a review and
discussion of the assassination of Senator William Goebel and the
alleged responsibility of the Republican Party for saii crime, and

to an effort to demonstrate the guilt of affiant in connection with
the commission of said crime, and to fix the responsibility for said
crime unon him; aha aptiant refers to and makes a hart hereof a copy

a f admirer and partisan follower of the late Senator William Goebel,

,// ,and a prospective Democratic candidate for Sheriff of Grant County;

._5,_
eight o'clock in the morning on Friday, November 22nd 1907, the said
Thus. K. Shuff, in company with the said Jack T. Chipman, in the town

all of whom were citizens and resident house—keepers of Grant County
over the age of twentymone years and competent and fully qualified

Republican party, and affiant knows of no reason why said persons, or
any of them, should have been passed and omitted by the said Deputy
Sheriff Shuff in selecting and summoning citizens of Grant County for
jury service herein, unless it was solely because they were Republicans
Affiant further states that said Deputy Sheriff and his companion,

)Jack T. Chipman, then proceeded out the road known as the Heekin and
Cherry Grove road, and going along said road said Shuff summoned divers
persons as veniremen herein. Affiant further states that at Stewattsu

nameé they summoned few, if any, citizens for jury service herein
from said precincts hgzgéa-or any of them. Affiant further states

small number of Republicans enfi ee as to excluie from said venire
