Judge Mann, of Spokane, Rules in
Favor of l. w. w.

Spokane, Wash, Nov 8-Judge
Mann, of the municipal court, ruled
that the mayor and his officials were
unjustly discriminating against the
Industrial Workers of the World in
absolutely prohibiting them from
speaking on the street corners, when
the Salvation Army, the President
of the United States and VIM. J.
Bryan were extended that privilege
together with police protection He
repealed an ordinance that gave the
mayor power to permit regularly or
gained religious bodies to use the
streets for their meetings, and to
withhold that privilege from others
The hunger strike continues in
the city jail and many are growing
miserably weak and their collapse
is feared
Jack Donovan. a wealthy pioneer
resident of Spokane, was arrested
and placed in Jail for attempting
street speaking in behalf of the In
dustrial Workers of the World in
their free speech fight.

a special election held for said pur-
pose, in such manner as may be pro-
vided by law, and when any such in
debtedness Is incurred by any coun-
ty, said county may levy. In addition
to the tax rate allowed under section
l57 OF the Constitution OF Kentucky
an amount not exceeding twenty
cents on the hundred dollars of the
assessed valuation of said county for
the purpose OF paying the interest on
said Indebtedness and providing a
sinking fund for the payment of said
Indebtedness.
Under the Constitution as 1t now
stands. two per cent is the highest
bonded Indebtedness any county
may incur. and this is shown to be
wholly inadequate for road purposes
The other proposed amendment re-
peals that section OF the Constitution
prohibiting the state from granting
aid to the various counties for road
purposes. This amendment Is highly
important, because IL the bill now
pending in congress appropriating
500 ,00O, 900 to the several states for
road purposes is passed. and this Is
strong probability. Kentucky could
not accept her proportionate amount
and give II TO the counties because
of the now-existing constitutional
bar.-Farmers' Home Journal.
