PUSH DEAN BILL
Liberals in Senate Plan to Vote Sec.
ond Day After Recovering.

Liberals in Senate Plan to Vote Sec.
ond Day After Recovering.
Columbus, o., Feb. According to
present plans of the liberals in the
legislature and others who are sup
porting the Dean bill, allowing cities
which went wet in county option
elections to remain wet, it will be
voted on February II, in the senate.
They have decided to push the bill as
quickly as possible and have it
passed at this session of the legisla-
ture if it can be done.
According to present plans a public
hearing will be held on the evening
of February 16, the day after the leg
islature reconvenes after its recess.
The senate committee is expected to
report the bill favorably, and a vote
is looked for the next day.
The plans for the campaign in the
house are not fully decided upon-it
being freely predicted by the liberal
interests that the bill will go through
the senate with votes to spare.
The liberals claim they will have
votes enough to pass the bill in the
house as well as the senate, but the
Anti-Saloon league and it's friends
say this is not true. At any rate, the
big fight on the measure is expected
in the house.

New Phone No. 81.
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1909
SCHOOL ATTENDANCE.

The census for the present school
. year shows that there are in Win
chester 1116 white children of school
age. During the first term of the pres
ent school year which closed Friday,
January %, the City School enroll
ment was 825 with daily attendance
of 755.
The above figures show that rs per
cent of the children who are of a
school age are enrolled in the City
School and that more than 80 per
cent of those who have been enrolled
are now attending school.
In view of the fact that a large
number of children In this city are
either attending college or are in
some private school we feel that the
above record is one Of which teachers
and members of the Board Of Edu-
cation and all citizens have a right
to be proud.
The City School faculty and the
Board Of Education are anxious to
reduce hardness and absence to the
minimum amount and ask all pat
rOns to cooperate with them in their
efforts to do this. Last week there
was very little hardness, only % tardy
marks being recorded and most Of
these were unnecessary. During the
week 116 pupils were absent and
these pupils lost in the aggregate
256 days. It's true that sometimes
pupils cannot be in school but it is
also true that many children fail to
attend school for very trivial reas-
.Dfs.
If the City School pupils lose $50
DAYS each week, in a school year, they
viii lose 10240 days. 1t has been es-
timated that it is worth at least five
dollars to the child who attends
school every day until he has a high
school education. If the estimate is
correct then the pupils of this city
lose more than fifty thousand dollars
each year by being absent from
school.
1t Is all important that the children
OF Winchester should take advantage
of the splendid opportunities they
have of securing an education.
Patrons ought to unite with the
teachers in order to secr:c regular
and punctual attendance.

More Trouble BREWING

Sacramento, CAL, Feb. 3.-Another
bill was added to the long list of anti
alien and anti-Japanese bills that will
be a special order in the assembly to-
day. Grove L. Johnson, chairman of
the committee on judiciary, reported
favorably his measure specifying
Japanese" in the law segregatng
Mongolians and Indians in the public
schools. 1t was the attempted inser-
ton of this word Japanese" in the
senate that caused President Roose-
welt two weeks ago to ask Governor
Gillett to stop anti-Japanese kgisla-
ton.

A COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL.

1t is said that the question of a
high school may be considered at the
meeting of the Clark County Board
of Education next Saturday. The
News sincerely trusts that the prop
ssiten may be presented and consid-
cred.
The weak point in our county and
IN fact, in all Kentucky, is the con-
,dition of the country school. With
SIX months or less instruction year
in the county it is little wonder that
the illiteracy in Kentucky is 50 large.

rarrinq of Roads.

Road tarring is becoming a habit in
the automobile districts of England.
The old method of applying with hand
brushes is now being abandoned in ia
yor Of the use Of an apparatus which
is nothing more or less than a giant
air brush. The tar Is in a large tank,
and two men pump air into it, while a
third goes about the road with a pipe
having four outlets through which the
air throws the tar In fine spray. This
rapidly and thoroughly coats the road.
Sand is then sprinkled, and the dust
is laid for good

TAR WATERPROOF ROADS.
Expert Approves Binding Material For
Stone MetaIinq.


Stone Metaling.
In an article summing up the work
of the international roads congress re-
Gently held in Paris a contributor to
Nature, the leading English scientific
weekly. says:
ION a matter of common interest
that is, the substitution of tar or btu
minOus binding material in place of
the water hitherto used to consolidate
and hold together the road material
the congress practically gave a unani-
nous answer. This was to the effect
that if the tar be put on in the correct
quantity, and this quantity the small
est required to hold the individual
stones of the road metal firmly in DO
sition, so that they never roll or move
In relation to one another, and their
upper surfaces are allowed to wear
cult to obtain at moderate expense g
waterproof road which will be practi-
cally dustless and which need not be
slippery.
1T appears certain also that the an
D1al cost will be considerably less
than the cost of the existing water
bound roads.
1T may be here remarked that, ow-
ing to the cautiousness and hence the
reticence Of some of the most impor-
tant Of our road authorities, the true
position of England, which now pos
sesses the greatest lengths of carefully
waterproofed roads of any country in
the world, was not put forward so
much as might have been the case.
1T was interesting to converse with
American engineers, who on account
of the Importance of road develop
nent in America are studying this
question very closely, and to hear
from them how much more they could
learn by visiting our English roads
than anywhere in France, at any rate
near the capital"

GRISCOM TO The RESCUE
American Ambassador Hears of Suf-

Rome, Feb. 3.-Such distressing re-

villages of Calabria, which have been
inadequately reached by the work of

small relief party to those regions

seem almost incredible. One of the
villages, he says, was carried $50 feet
