fRom FACT TO FANCY.

When some one proposed fey
wears ago that a law be passed pro-
viding for the establishment OF special
drainage districts which could levy
taxes and vote bonds for building
drainage bitches irrespective OF the
county Or township boundaries there
was much ridicule of the proposition
who would want to vote bonds and
levy taxes on specified tracts OF lsahd
in order to build drainage bitches
which would cost hundreds of thou
sands of dollars? The reply was that
if nobody wanted to do so the law
would not iniure anyone since its pro-
visions would not then be put in mo-
ton, but that If any set of land owners
should want to undertake such an en-
terprise they should be given the
necessary legal machinery. And what
was the result? Today great drainage
bitches are being extended in half a
hundred localities, many of them cost
ing more than 100000 and even this
last week the board of supervisors OF
Pocahontas county has approved a
project at an estimated cost Of $l70,000
for ditch fifty-three miles long. me
law is vet new and its benefits but
barely begun.
What has been done in drainage
work can be done in road building.
The thing that makes the big drainage
ditch possible is that all the land bene-
fitted by the ditch extending in various
directions can be forced into it's tax
support by vote of a large majority
of the owners and that the enormous
first cost can be distributed over
ilong period by bond issues ait very low
rates of interest In the case of the
Pocahontas project 123 quarter SEE
tions will contribute to the cost OF
fftv-three miles Of ditch. The ditch
will cost 1925 per mile and stand
each quarter section of land an aver
aga Of 1880 outlay which will be
raised by a bond issue and paid off In
small amounts annually for long
period of years.
Now, if some far seeing statesman
would shape the laws of Iowa so that
narnanent roads could be built by bond
issues and tax levies upon special road

it might with sense of fitness, been
Kentucky. When the jurors in ia
nous trial reported yesterday morning
one old fellow brought up the ques-
ton Of his "mornin's mornin'.' He
had been used to follow the advice
offered to Timothy and throw in one
or two before breakfast. He had
missed it, and his whole interior was
calling for the accustomed utilization
that follows a cocktail or comes with
a few fingers straight. So he took
lit UP with the Judge. Perhaps the
Judge had had his and was feeling its
kindly impulse upon his own mucous
membranes At any rate he decided
that the juror should have drink
before breakfast, holding that to de-
prive him of his pre-prandial snort,
would be cruel and unusual punish
ment and unconstitutional, both as re-
lated to the constitution of the juror
ana LNdC Oh lllS OHilSu StoeSS' A-
sequently, the first thing the jury in
the Cooper Sharp murder case will do
will be to perform a little progressive
suicide, each with his favorite "pois-
on"
+ Now suppose these bibulous jurors
were deprived of their ''mornin's morn
in and obliged to decide this ques-
ton of life or death on water alone,
what would be the consequences? TO
what kind Of frame of mind would
enforced abstinence lead the jurors
who had been used to the good old
Tennessee way, and their daily drench

Jurors coming quickly to a verdict that
they might get out in time for the
circus; what would not thirsty jury
do for a drink? Would it be acqpittal

One thing this Portian ruling OF
Tennessee Judge is most likely to do:
1t win make jury service a pleasure
and a delight where it has been

a prohibition county, even in Iowa,
will crowd to the bar of justice and
clanaor to be incarcerated within tho

age or Wurtzenburger brew. Imagine
how the barflys, whose wistful eyes
search the soul of each new arrival
stalking toward the bar, with hope
deferred that maketh the heart sick.
will hail the $2-a-d ay-and-d drinks that
Jury service entails. And even Uncle
William from the rural districts will
oftiues smile when he thinks of
good long trial, safe from Aunt Maria
and the critical eyes of neighbors, shut
behind the doors where juries sit in
state, surrounded with the creature
comfort that supports the fundamental
law that none shall suffer cruel ana
unusual punishment.
The palladium of our liberties is safe.
While the constitution holds water
every juror may hold whisky NOT
only that he may demand his favorlte
brands and connections as murderer
may select his last breakfast. While
hardy hands and brave hearts protect
the flag and the constitution 1t follows
there will remain one place where
man can get q drink. The law of the
nation assures It. Our fearless judi
Charles demand it. Our sheriffs, who
usually know good stuff when they
taste it, will provide it.
