MOST IMPORTANT MATTER
To All Kentuckians is the Sub
ject of Good Roads and
Building of Same.

Never before in Kentucky has there
been so much discussion of road build
ing or a more general demand for
good roads as this winter. The
agitation and the interest is increas-
ing in all sections of the State and
brighter prospects for good roads are
seen by those who have taken the
trouble to give the matter proper con-
sideration. A constitutional amend
ment has passed the Senate authoriz-
ing State aid and It will undoubtedly
pass the House at Frankfort. When the
farmers have a chance to vote on
it we predict that it will sweep the
State by 100000 majority. Every pau
per county in the State, largely so
because of bad roads, will vote al
most unanimously for it, because
they will by this measure re-
ceive more than they will pay in,
while the Weather counties Of the
State will realize that good roads will
bring other counties up so rapidly in
wealth that in the end their taxes
will be reduced. A splendid audi
ence at the Farmers INSTITUTED at
Frankfort recently heard a very ex-
tensive discussion of good roads by ex-
perts and the knowledge gained will
be carried into many parts of Ken
lucky. How tobuildgood roads and
how to keep them good is one of
the very most important questions
for the people of Kentucky to under
stand and We are pleased to note the
great progress that is being made
along these lines. The steam roller
and the split log drag are emphasized
as the two most important implements
by all experts in road building and
those seeking information on this sub
ject should write to the good Roads
Department at Washington for litera-
ture. There must be much education

AN INDIGNATION
MEETING IS HELD
By Many Franklin COun-
ty Democrats
TO EXPRESS THEIR FEELINGS
At the Act of the Boilers
Who Elected Bradley to
the U. S. Senate.

The KentuckyState Journal publish
ed Frankfort, says:
Franklin county Democrats went on
record in unmistakable terms yester-
day, as forever and eternally condemn
ing the action OF boilers who will be
tray the party nominee. Strong res
olutions We're passed relative to the
recent Senatorial race in which Gov.
Beckham is hailed with honor because
of his magnificent Highland those who
contributed toward his defeat are de-
nounced in unmeasured terms. The
Courier-Journal is denounced as the
enemy of Democracy in Kentucky.
There were five hundred men crowd
ed into the court room about one
O'Clock. The meeting at that time
seemed to follow a general discussion
on the street corners, and wherever a
group of men seemed to be loafing:
The treaehery of four democrats to
elect Republican was almost be-
yond comprehension of Franklin coun-
tvs true blue Democracy, and the gem
eral impulse to get together in the
courthouse and talk it over, soon
made itself felt.
Judge j. H. Polsgrove was sought
and asked to call the meeting to order
The courthouse bell was rung, and the
crowd kept growing larger every min
ute. Judge Polsgrove responded and
stated briefly the case before the court.
Attorney Elwood Hamilton was chosen
secretary and the gathering made it
permanent.
A strong speech was then made by
Leslie w. Morris, the well known
attorney, who shot it into the boilers
right and left. He took a slight turn
at Gov. Wilson, accusing him OF
total failure in the obacco question
OF the State, notwithstanding his
armed men inc very section He was
greeted with loud applause.
When Mr.. Morris had concluded a
committee composed of Albert Jeff,rs.
w. r. Lee, and w. f.. Thompson,
brought in resolutions which they had
retired to formulate. The resolutions
were read to the assemblage of Demo-
Gratis and received with a shout.
Former Representative Frank john
son objected to the resolutions. He
declared that they were not strong
enough, but as for him, he could think
of nothing to say that would maxi
them stronger, hut he gave his en-
dorsement to every word and the gath
ering seemed to do the same, to Judge
from its repeated applause.

the resolutions were unanimously
adopted by rising vote.

It's was used freely by the children,
but the other soon became choked
with the children who dashed madly
for the open air. Those who fell
in the doorway were trampled on by
those behind, and soon the doorway
was impossible.
The frightened and panic-stricken
children turned to escape by windows
and any other means that could be
found. Escape was cut off ty the

throughout the r,Dus.
The building was of brick, yet this
did not retard the progress of the
flames. In a few minutes, the lower
floor fell, precipitating scores of chill
dren to the basement among the burn
ing embers.
The scene about the building was
heartrending. Quickly the news of
the catastrophe spread throughout the
village and hundreds of parents were
crowding about the building in search
of their girls and boys.

Cleveland, o., March Am the most
terrible holocaust in the history OF
this section of the country, over 100
school children lost their lives to-day
in a fire which destroyed the three
story brick school building on Cola
mer avenue in Collinwood, a sub
urb. Just outside the city limits.
Fire started in the basement of the
building about IL o'clock, just after
school convened. 1t was caused from
an overheated furnace. The smoke
from the fire quickly filled the build
ing and alarmed the children and
teachers. A panic ensued. No fire
drill was used in rescuing the child
rem. They rushed pell-mell from the
doors and windows.
Walter {. Kelley, newspaper man,
two OF whose children were in the
buillng, was one of the first on the
scene. He stated that the rear door,
one of two exits, was locked. The
children rushed for the front and rear
doors. The front exit soon was jam
ned fIll Of fighting and panic-stricken
humanity. Many who reached the
exit first escaped, but the greater
number who followed choked the door
way
These who fell were trampled on
and many are supposed to, have been
killed in this manner. Those behind
turned and made for the windows
Some on the second and third floors
jumped from the windows and escap-
ed. In this way three or four were
called while others were more for
tunate and ecaped with slight in
juries. The greater number Of those
who met death were cut off from es-
cape by the smoke, which blinded
them.
Caught in this manner, they fell with
the lower floor, amid the blazing tim
beers, TO the basement below. There
the little bodies could be seen writing
in their last death struggle.
Factories in the immediate neighbor-
hood dismissed their men who went
to work in an effort to rescue the lit
tie ones. A few minutes after the
building was known to be on fire the
school was surrounded by parents,
fathers and mothers, who were frantic
in their daZed efforts to rescue their
children. Very few were saved from
among the children who We're behind
the Jam at the front door. The Others
escaped with slight injuries.
The school was of the common
grade and contained $50 children rang
ing in age from years to fourteen.
Two or three of the teachers also
are thought to have persisted. The
fire from the basement, in addition to
filling the school rooms with smoke,
which caused the first alarm, leaped
up the stairway to the first, second
and third floors.
When the children rushed from thei
rooms to the Railways they rushed
into a fiery furnace. 1t was in the
Railways and at the main exit where
the greatest number met death. The
Railways were narrow and could not
