board during the convention and CO.
operate with us for the purpose of
promoting immigration. We believe
that every business man. citizen and
farmer in western Kentucky would
be benefited and should be inter-
ested in this effort.
The Importance and value of good
roads to any community is doubtless
sufliciettly understood to appeal to
all citizens. God roads throughout
western Kentucky will improve and
add TO the value of farm property
and greatly benefit the commercial in
terests of Paducah, hence, all people
should contribute full measure Of
announcement to anything that will
mean Improvement to our highways.
As to intorurban lines, the Com
mercial club brought to Paducah last
October year ago, a gentleman In
terested in the promotion OF interur-
ban lines. Some of the members Of
the club became interested in this
gentleman's plans and there is now
under way well organized plans for
building interurban lines out of Pa
dwoah. No one will question the
value of what few lines leading out
of Paducah into different sections of
the country will be to the develop
ment. progress and business inter-
ests OF this section. and these i'm
portant matters should be agitate@
and encouraged in every possible
manner by all those who have the
welfare of Paducah and western Ken
lucky at heart, and those business
men who have taken the lead in this
work should be encouraged by all
our citizens, hence this subject will be
handled at the convention by one Of
the ablest engineers and successful

observation by the Commercial club.
The club stands today and has
stood practically unanimous for
these great things for Paducah, and
any statement to the contrary is false
and malicious and libel on the in
telligence and patriotism of the men
who have devoted their time and
means to the encouragement of
greater things for Paducah.
A more liberal spirit of co-opera-
ton, a greater willingness on tie
part of the people to get together
and endorse and encourage these
great objects are what we need just
now. Yours truly,

Dear Sir: In order to set forth
clearly TO the citizens of Paducah the
objects OF tho immigration conven-
ton to be held September 2Gth and
27th and 10 correct some erroneous
statements being made By reckless
persons around the streets Of Padu-
cah. beg to state in behalf of the
officers and directors of the CONNER
cial- club and the immigration asso-
cation that the primary objects Of
holding the convention are to get to-
gcther and exchange IDEAS and hear
discussions on the subjects of immi-
grafton. good roads, iu'crurban lines
ana additional steam roads for Pa
ducah. in a manner that will tend to
create more interest in and a better
understanding as 10 what has been
done. and what can ana should be
done in the interest OF Paducah and
western Kentucky.
The idea OF immigration Is to
bring in a large number of German
and Austrian families, the more the
better. to settle on vacant lands IN
McCracken county and western Ken

of land not under cultivation, and
room for great number of desira-
bic people. immigration Of the right

but this object in view. building up

any man or business.
II is intention of the association tc

of the two ships. They both displayed
noteworthy maneuverlng qualities. \

The military airshlp made a num-
Der of'shogt voyages. including a trip

complicated flights in every direction

In the meanwhile the Parseval air.

lasted more than two hours. directly
