IMPROVEMENTS.

Sidewalks should be improved; but
attention should not be limited to
compelling people to tear up brich
sidewalks, good or bad, and lay con-
crete sidewalks. Property owners
should be compelled to repair their
defective brick sidewalks. A sidewalk
is designed to protect people from ac-
cidents, as well as to keep their feet
dry: but II sidewalk actually adds
TO the danger OF a pedestrian instead
of obviating IL. the person response
be for II should repair II. As for
street paving: Paducah will not see
many more streets paved until this
inherited floating debt is cancelled,
fredericksburg has new bridge, the
west end has a much neeied fire sta
ton, provisions are made for the
care of poor people suffering from
diseases, and provisions
are made for sprinkling and preserv-
ing the streets we already have. Let
the people. who talk about paving
more streets this year, suggest the
means.

GRAFT IN THE STATE.

One by one facts Of mismanage-
ment, graft and theft under past ad-
leak out at Frankfort.
First it was discovered that an an
nual deficit Of over 100000 was the
customary thing; next II was learned
that Auditor Hager's balance was
made up by Withholding warrants OF
teachers and small creditors until the
books were checked over to the In
coming administration. Now II is
discovered that the chief clerk in
Hager's Office had sto.en thousands
of dollars under his nose. What
makes it appear worse Judge Booe
stole Systematically from the state
before Hager was elected. Hager
passed through his term without, 50
far as the public knows. finding 1t
out. The stealing continued under
Hager and in less than a year Auditor
James has unearthed the crime. 1t
was a good thing Kentucky changed
hands.
