Meeting At Paducah Tomorrow
To Locate Western
End of
JEFFERSON DAVIS HIGHWAY.
Enthusiasm Intense And Many
Counties Will Be Represent
ed By Delegates.

The meeting at Paducah to-mor-
row, the chief object of which is to
locate the jefferson Davis Highway
from Hopkinsville has aroused the
liveliest possible interest and there
is sure to be a tremendous crowd
present. several conflicting interests
pulling each for its favored route.
The routes diverge in a mile of Hop.
kinsville where the roads fork, one
leading to Cadiz and the other by
Princeton. The Princeton route is
supported by Crittenden and Lyon
counties as we'll as Caldwell. A
county meeting held at Princeton
Monday was a big gathering that
filled the courthouse and $4,000 was
subscribed in a few minutes by citi.
zens and the Fiscal Court pledged
$4,000 or more; citizens along the
route promised. to help with their
teams and much substantial help was
promised. Lyon county had dele
cation of 43 present and that county
is also thoroughly aroused. What
is known as the Cadiz route goes by
Canton and from that point two
routes are proposed, one to Benton
by the ridge road and the other by
Murray by the valley road and
thence to Benton. Both routes con-
tinue from Benton to Paducah. The
Mayfield route turns south at Muir
ray to Mayfield and thence to the
Mississippi river. The rivalry be-
tween the routes is very keen and
may result in several roads being
built. The Jefferson Davis High
way may become the Jefferson Davis
Highway System, with many branch
es leading to the Davis Home at
Fairview.
AS mentioned in a recent issue of
the Kentuckian. Dover, Tennessee, is
planning to connect with the Lafay-
cite pike to HopkinNille at the
State line and build a FIT. Donelson
Way 3S miles from Dover to Hop

Judge Walter Knight and r. E..
Cooper attended the meeting at
Princeton Monday and were greatly
impressed with the enthusiasm
shown.

there. which will determine the
route into the Purchase. I
