PRES. ROOSEVELT in his mes
sage urges upon Congress the i'm
portance Of enacting effective legis-
lation to prevent known anarchists
from coming to this country, to
deport those who do come, and to
punish those who stay. The sug-
gestion has already been taken up
by Congress. Senator Vest has
introduced resolution calling upon
the Senate Judiciary committee to
inquire whether Congress has that
right. The McComas. resolution
assumes that Congress has the
right and PROPOSES 70 make assault
upon ain official with intent to kill
punishable with death, such cases
to be tried in the Federal courts.

THR coming legislature should
do something to build up eastern
Kentucky. The best way to do
that is to improve our highways.
Let the Legislature pass law to
construct turnpike from Crab
Orchard to Cumberland Gap by
convict labor. Col. Bennett H.
Yoaug, the brilliant Louisville
lawyer, made speech in the Good
Road convention last Simmer in
which he declared that the above
pfats was the best and quickest way
TO help the mountain section oil
Kentucky and such d Law would
not be in conflict with the present
constitution. Good roads are the
saliva i'm Of our section Of the State
and with them will come morality,
education and Christianity. With
out them we will continue to be
known as pistol toters and moon
sinners. The country merchant
will then buy all the produce he
can secure because he can get it to
the railroad where he can ship it to
the city. More produce shipped to
the city means more goods. wares
and merchandise shipped from the
city. This means a help to the
farmers who raise the produce; it
Helps the country merchant be-
Cause he by means of good roads,
carr GET It to market and helps the
great cities because they can sell
and ship more goods to the coun-
Try stores. 1t helps the railroads
and causes them to employ more
men; it will help the day laborers
because the farmers will want more
help TO raise more produce. We
hope that the legislators will feel
the vast importance of this great
movement and will unite in an
effort to accomplish this much de-
sirei and most needed improve
ment.'
