KEEPS EN- GUESSING.
Uncertainty as to Taylor's Decision
Still Exists.


Frankfort, KY, Feb. 10.-Gov. Tay-
Tor has not signed the Louisville peace
agreement. He announces moreover
that he has no intention of doing so
for some time, and does not know
whether he will sign it at all. On the
other hand the democrats are conf
dent that he will affix his signature to
the document. Friday was a day of
conferences in Frankfort. They were
IN full swing from morning until
night, and outwardly nothing tangible
resulted from them. The situation is
TO all appearances exactly where it
was when the peace agreement was
first submitted to Gov. Taylor.
On the morning train from Louis
vile came the republican attorneys,
David w. Fairleigh and Judge John
w. Barr, both of whom were MEM
bers of the Louisville conference on
the republican side. Immediately upon
arrival Mr. Fairleigh called upon SEN
ator blackburn at the Capital hotel,
and after few words with him went
in company with Judge Barr and Gen.
Dan Lindsay to the office of Gov. Tay-
Tor. A conference was held there
from eleven o'clock until one o'clock,
when an adjournment was taken. In
the afternoon another conference was
held, which lasted until $3.50.
1t was impossible to learn the re-
suit of the protracted debate. Every
one of those who took part in the con-
ferences preserved a sphinx-like 81
lence in regard to what transpired be-
hind the governors door, absolutely
refusing to discuss the matter in any
way. From the governors office Gen.
Lindsay. Judge Barr, Attorney Fair
leigh and Mr.. Edelen went at once
to Gen. Lindsay's law. office, where a.
brief conference was held, and the
course of action to be pursued dis
cussed, and shortly after six o'clock
Judge Barr and Attorney Fairleigh
took the train for Louisville. In the
evening Gov. Taylor held long con-
versation over the telephone with w.
c. P. Breckenridge at Lexington.
Later he repeated his assertion made
during the afternoon that he would
not take any action on the peace
agreement for the present.
Change in Situation.
Late at night the situation was some
what changed. Adjt. Gen. Collier was
again called into Gov. Taylor's office
about eight O'Clock and was in consul
tation with him until late hour, but
would say nothing as to what tran
spired. From other and authoritative
sources, however, it was learned that
decision had finally been reached, and
that the peace agreement probably
would receive the signature Of Gov.
Taylor inside of "a hours,

ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
Special Patriotic Service at Gen.
trail Methodist Church.

1t is not often that applause is heard
in church during Divine service, but
on Sunday evening at the special pa
triotic service that was held by the
Rev. j. w. Somerville in the Central
Methodist church, on three separate
occasions did the congregation evil
aence their approval of the sentiments
expressed by the clapping of hands.
The service was of special nature.
it was to the patriotic bodies of the
city and the theme of the discourse
was abraham Line m" 1t was one
of the most eloquent and most stirring
lemons of the kind that has ever
been delivered in the city. The speak
er was thoroughly in sympathy with
his theme and his delineation of the
character of the American hero was
such as to hold the congregation from
the beginning to the last in closest
sympathy with himself. 1t was SER
mon that will long be remembered by
everyone who heard it.
One of the sentiments expressed
was after the minister had begged the
indulgence of the congregation for
depressing. He said: "What some
people of this country of ours are
needing at the present time is good
big, old fashioned, alopathic dose of
Americanism. There are people to-
day, and in the halls of congress, say
ing things and doing things that had
they been said and done in the days
Ibf '6t and '62, an outraged people
would have strung them up at the
post"

The sale was held in the south end

Convicts and Good Roads.

From the st. Augustine Record.
Most of the Eastern, many of
the Western and some of the
Southern states have seriously
taken up the question of good
roads and inaugurated systems of
highway construction that are more
or less complete and economical,
and all profitable to the several
communities.
Florioa has for years been faced
with a grave problem in the proper
disposition of her Convicts. The
practice of leasing them to phos
plate miners has been maintained
for a long time, but this has proven
far from satisfactory. True, the
state has derived some revenue
from this method, but it is too
small to cOunterbalanCe the attend
ant evi IS
In the first place, the sending of
convict to the convict camps
does not always subServe the ends
oil justice. The criminal is SEN
fenced to a period of Imprisonment
at hard labor. If he is strong and
able bodied, well and good. If he
is weak and unable to stand the
severe strain of work in the mines,
and will not die, he becomes a dead
expense to the lessee, who must
pay for both his hire and board
without return in labor. 1t has
been authenticity charged that
opportunity is made for such pris-
oners to escape, and not even per-
funCtOrv effort is made towards
their recapture.
How much better would it be
for the state to utilize its convict
labor in building a system of big III
ways. Through this method the
road tax would be aboIShed, and
honest labor would not suffer.
A law enacted by the last legis-
lature invests the county commits
sioners with the right to use their
own prisoners and borrow from
adjoining counties for road pur-
poses. This is step in the right
direction, but we have not yet
heard of any advantage being taken

The TELEGRAPH TABOOED.

During the past two weeks a
number of our contemporaries
have reproduced a half-column
article from the Monticello Con-
stitution. in which it is argued that
Acknowledgement Lamar should be
his own successor. This spontane-
Gus outburst is fully explained by
the Green Cove Spring, which pa
per reproduces the article, but pre-
faces it with the following para
graph:
"The following clipping from the
Monticello Constitution is publish

Since it is apparent that Mr..
LamarS press bureau has resumed
its old time activity, the TELE-
GRAPH is surprised to find itself
tabooed. In former campaigns we
have so cheerfully yielded space to
the exploitation of Mr.. Lamar

so on, that we are downright puz,

demands on our space. We believe
