Frankfort.
Dear Governor.
I dont know that you can do anything in the case presented by the enclosed dispatch but I think it well enough that you should see it.
The Election returns indicate very large gains for our ticket throughout the state — amounting to not less than 25000 or 30000. A well directed concerted & energetic movement will bring the State right
Yr Truly
T. B. M
