Na-
The diseussion olliId road luts-
ton is an old stand ~. Whenever
there is lull in politics, the sub
ject Of roads hobs up for the usual
FOUND OF plaiitudes. Il il worthy
OF note, however, that the great
volume of Intellectual talk about
roads is At last taking on that prac-
teal quality which seems to pre-
eede action. There has been
enough energy wasted in talking
about roads and road laws TO have
tufnpiket the State from Louisa to
Hickman. II the indication be not
false one that the end of words
and the beginning of deeds draws
near, the State is TO be congratulate
ed. For, outside OF .he Bluegrass
region, and one or two fortunate
and enterprising counties like
Warren and Christian. the roads in
Kentucky are in deplorabls con-
ditiOn.

Now that Kentucky coal mines

All OF Eastern and Southern and
Western Kentucky are filed with
coal fields from which as good coal
can be secured as can be found in
either Pennsylvania or West Viz

These are considerations that

one industry in the State, indirectly
benefits all other industries of the

the Northern people are smarter

they cannot do any better they
send their money away from home
