BEREA FINE RENTED

Governor Wilson has RENTED the
states share of the $1,000 fine as
sessed against Berea College for the
violation Of the Day Law which was
necessary to make a test case. He
says as the violation was committed
in good faith, and the school has
done and is doing such good work,
there is no justice in the payment
of the fine.

President William g. Frost OF Be-
rea College, Berea, KY, made full
statement regarding the plans for
new ooiored school at the meeting
of the Ministerial Association today.
Berea College is organizing the move
ment. and will have it in charge un-
til a new board of trustees, composed
of representative citizens, can be
made up.
The Statewide importance OF the
work as affecting everything, CONNER
cial or religious, in the Common
wealth was shown, and the associa-
ton adopted the following resolutions:
Resolved, That the Ministerial AS
ISOLATION of Louisville heartily ap-
proves and commends the project Of
Berea College for the establishment
of a well-planned and properly equip
ped colored school in this State.
I'VE appreciate the generosity tf
the great national givers who have
started the fund for this purpose, and
we earnestly recommend that every
minister in the State mention the
cause next Sunday morning as one
particularly suited for our thought iu
connection with the Lincoln eenten-
NAL. Evening Post.

cars ran all one day, and telephone
and telegraph wires were almost all
down. Communication all thru the
Middle West was badly interrupted,
and in one place an important train
was lost for three days in the snow
drifts.
The final result of the cold snap
will not be bad, however, for this
part of the country. The farmers
will find the snow a benefit to the
growing grain, and It will improve
soils in general. The cold was not
sharp enough to hurt fruit buds, and
so, altogether, farmers in this state
are we'll pleased as is possible at
this time of the year.

MOVE FOR EXTRA SESSION

A great deal of pressure is being
brought to bear on Gov. Wilson just
now to call an extra session of the
legislature, in spite Of his announce
ment that there is no justification
for such a call. Various reasons are
given by different people for asking
for a special session-the real one
in each case is that they want some
thing which the regular session did
not provide, and do not want 10 wait
for.
Ever since the last session closed,
politicians are finding out that Brad
ley's election to the Senate was
bought at a terrible cost to the Rep
ublican party. The pledge in the
platform for a County unit bill, was
not kept-the opportunities for a fair
re-districting bill and a fair election
law were lost, and tax reform, and
other needed laws all had to take a
back seat in order to crafty Mr..
Bradley's ambition. As a result the
Republican party has no record on
which to appeal to the people in
the next election, and defeat is star
ing 1t in the face. The legislature,
which was not Democratic enough
but that a Republican was elected
to the Senate, did not do anything
much for the people of the state,
and the Republicans, who did get the
senatorship, are going to be blamed
for It, These same politicians who
are hollering for an extra session
now, are practically admitting that
the Republican party could have
done good work If It had wanted to,
for they believe that another session
will do something to the advantage
of the party.
There is no doubt of the need of
all the laws which are suggested by
the people who are after an extra
session, but there is considerable
doubt whether it would be wise 10
call such a session. Judge O'Rear
and Secretary of State Drummer, both
of whom have hopes Of heading the
ticket some day, are for it, because
they believe it will strengthen the
party. or course neither they mol
Gov. Wilson say just these things
in public, but these are the rea
reasons behind their action. Gov
Wilson, on the other hand, is moi
at all sure that If another session
is called, It will do any of these
needed things and he is afraid that
If 1t fails there will only be deepel
blame cast on the Republicans. H,

ed for other things. At this writ
ing it seems likely that the Cover.
nor will stick to his guns, and make
the party go before the people OF
its record at the last meeting of the
legislature. He advised at that tim,
against the course the legislator,
was taking. and is simply doing what
he then said he would.

CONSTITUTION
WAS ADOPTED
Associated Charities of Pen
sacola Has Been Making
Some Rapid Strides.

Matters have been progressing rap
idly and very satisfactorily of late
with regard to Pensacola's new or
ganization, known as the Associated
Charities, suitable constitution
having been adopted embracing to
important essentials upon which the
movement is based.
In fact, when Mayor Goodman first
launched the idea several weeks age
he could not have wished for better
support than the proposition has al
ready received. and this from the first
and foremost people of the city.
Systematic, well balanced and
wide awake charity, in fact, are the
underlying principles of the work in
hand, a general banding together OF
all former phiIanthr0pic organizations
of local character having been eff
fected with this very creditable and
sensible view in mind.
Some of It's Aims.
Among the aims of the Associated
Charities is that of promoting intsS-
ligent cooperation among municipal
county and state authorities, churches,
benevolent institutions and charitable
individuals, in furnishing adequate re-
lief for the needy and in forwarding
movements designed TO remove causes
of poverty.
To accomplish these objects it is
designed to be a center of intercom-
munication between such agencies. 20
foster harmonious cooperation be-
tween them. and TO check the evils of
the overlapping of relief. Thorough
investigation into all cases arising
will also occur under the rules of the
association, and endeavor made to DO
away with all impostoTs imposing
upon the public.

There were 479 arrests for violation
of the prohibition law during 1908,
which was not an offense in 1907. TAX
ing this into consideration there was
a net decrease of 1885 arrests III
1908 under those of 1907.
There were % cases docketed for
January 1, 1908, that were made De-
eember 81. 1907. There were but nine
cases docketed for January 1. 1909.

ures, As, to the decrease, a fair meth

02S arrests for the dry year.
Used as Tract.
This is the substance of the tract
which the pTonibitiCnists are using in
other states. tt Is powerful argu-
ment that is being used at home to
create added support of the law. But
the ants do not accept the same
meaning for the figures. They de-
clare that when Chief of Police Bode-
ker took charge of the police depart

mission show. that he issued order af-
ter order TO the patrolmen 10 make

out actually endangering- the commun.
ity or any person. The policy of the
new chief has consistently been, they
declare. and the chief himself ac-
knowledges, to look with the greater
favor on the men of the force who
make arrests with the least show OF
pride and authority
Chief Bodeker declares that this
change from the old regime last year
was responsible for the decreased
number Of arrests under 1907 It will
be recalled that no city of equal size
presented so large a police docket in
twelve months as Birmingham.
Thus both sides are playing foot
bail with the police records. Never
theless Chief BOdeker acknowledges
that the tendency of prohibition is to
decrease crime.
Chief Bodeker Talks.
There are fewer arrests for drunk
eEness,7 said the head of the police
NO doubt prohibition mas reduced
the amount of drunkenness in the city
Of Birmingham, at least on the streets,
aud this must necessarily result in
some reduction of crime which is. al
ways traceable TO strong drink taken
IL excess"
But there is other evidences on
record. This Is hard for the ants TO
contend with. OF course they seoff
at the comparison as being unfair but
the force of the county Jail record is
hard TO stop.
New Years Day, 1909, there were
ninety-seven fewer prisoners in the
Jefferson county jail than on the same
day the year previous. Warden New
man OF the county jail states that
tle actual criminal record under pro-
hibitiOn has fallen on between 40 and
80 per cent.
