Galveston. Tex. May GA decis-

the death knell of local option, which
is now in force in over 100 counties
In this state. The new ruling Is to
the effect that shipments of liquor
from wet county or city in the state
to dry or local option county or city
in the state is not in violation of the
local option laws, provided the ship
ment is made at the risk Of the pur-
chaser.
In other words. the question of the
sale of the liquor is established to be
when the liquor is delivered to the
railroad in the wet county or city.
and not at the place of delivery to
the purchaser. The decision is in
the case of NJ. Keller VS.. the state.
from Hill county. Keller shipped a
c. o. ID. package of whiskey from
West, a wet precinct. to man In
Hillsboro, which is under local option
The case has been bitterly fought by
the liquor interests against the tenn
perance organizations, and the best
legal talent of several states has been
retained in the case.
The liquor men have prepared for
vigorous campaign, and will estab-
fish agencies, with travelling sales
men, in every wet county and town in
the state. The records show the beer
traffic to have decreased over 60 per
cent. and liquor traffic increased 43

teen months.

A COLLEGE FOR PADUCAH.

Kentucky Is undergoing an educa-
tional rejuvenation. and the urgent
need of better schools and improved
colleges is at last being recognized.
The state is growing, and as Ken
lucky Is already behind many other
states in educational facilities, the
need for good and prompt work is
all the more imperative.
The Lexington Herald says:
1.-THE educational leaders of the
state have an opportunity to render
the greatest possible service. There
are many evidences that the people
are ready to follow if practical plans
are proposed, and capable leadership
developed Generally speaking, two
things are absolutely necessary to
marked improvement in the states
educational spstem. First of all there
must be efficient administration OF
what we have, with consideration for
politicians eliminated, and every dol
lar of the states money expended for
getting the greatest possible good.
not for those who live by public of
flee, but for the school children of
the state In other words, there mus.
be a capable administration of the
state school system entirely divorced
from politics. The next essential Is
popular interest In education. III
these two things can be secured, and
one will certainly contribute to the
other, few years will suffice to put
Kentucky upon a very different plane
educationally."
While the interest is on an ia
crease, IL would be we'll for someone
TO cast an eve towards Paducah as a
location for a large. up-to-date col
lege. A few years ago an attempt was
made to establish an institution OF
this kind here and the site was Sc
lected, but for some reason the peo-
pie failed TO display the necessary
. interest, and the project went by the
board.
There Is not large college in this
part OF the state. Every year dozens
of our young people are sent TO 9th
eI cities TO complete their education
when there is no reason they should
not be able TO complete II at home
that Is, no reason except that we
haven't college.
Paducah Is growing rapidly. A.
the present rate nearly 1000 new
houses year are built here, and
our population is increasing at a
lively rate. with new factories locat-
ing every year and new citizens com
ing in from all directions. Many esti
mate the average increase Ia. popula-
ton at 1000 or 5000 people a year,
and a college ought to pay. II would
attract hundreds of students from
cities within radius of hundreds OF
miles, and add no little to Paducah's
prestige. The time is ripe for an ed
ucational institution of the kind
mentioned, II Is bound TO come soon,
and those who take the Initiative
now and get In ahead, will In a few
years be congratulating themselves
ON their foresight, II is an opportu-
nifty not 10 be ignored,
