MACHINERY FOR WATERWAYS

Senator Fletcher of Florida, presi-
dent of the Southern Commercial
Congress, is doing good work as the
head of one of the most progressive
commercial and industrial institu-
.tions of the country.
His latest suggestion is that the
machinery now being used in digging
the Panama Canal should be retained
by the government for use in develop
ing our national waterways. He has
called for a meeting of all those who
are interested to assemble in Nash
vile on April Sth, and it is hoped that
there will be a prompt response.
Millions of dollars are represented
in this high class machinery. With
the completion of the canal it's useful
ness in that connection will end, but
it will be found excellently adapted
to the development of our great in
land waterway system. 1t would be a
thousand pities to see it sacrificed
when there is so much need for it.
The proposition is at least one
which is worthy of careful consider
atom Washington Post.

"STUMPED" DR.. NOWLIN

One of the first things occurring at
the Ocala convention was remarka-
BILE visit from a young woman. Soon
after the convention had been called
to order, attention was claimed by a
Holy Roller. Without SO much as
asking permission, she appeared be-
fore the body and began to talk.
Drs. Tribble, Nowlin and others on
the front row, were asked some very
pointed questions The "interrogat-
or" wanted to know if these dignitar-
les knew what was meant by being
saved. Now, a strange thing happen
ed-there was no answer! 1t was a
very simple question, but no answer
came. Only blank surprise appeared
on the faces of these learned doctors
of divinity. This seemed to call the
young woman to other questions.
Doubtless she was moved by sympa-
thy for men so ignorant CD Could
they not answer? Were they not
teachers? After some moments of
suspense-to the rest of us-a point
of order" was raised. All, that con-
venient point of order" After much
firm insistence, the point was recog-
nized by the speaker.-Florida Bap-

of the new Board of Education, in
Louisville to remove school employees
is upheld. The court holds that Viii

moved. The case was styled Lucas
against the Board of Education. Luz
cas- was employed, by the old school
board, as assistant schoo superin-
tendent for two years. being elected
in 1909. Shortly after the new Board
of Education took charge, Lucas was
removed. He sued to compel the new
board to allow him to serve out the
full twc-year term. The lower court
dismissed his petition and in up
holding this the higher court says:
After the new board has effected its
organization and new order, all en-
ployes of the board, whether retained
over from the cid administration or
employed by the new, were upon a
common footing, and the new board
had, over all of them alike, every
right given to them by the act"

Breathitt county. Bowling Is white
man, and the man he killed was a
negro. 1t is the first time in the his
tory of the state, SO far as is known,
that white man has been given the
death penalty for the murder of a
negro. The governor will fix date
for the execution as soon as the man
date of the Appellate Court issues.
The court of appeals has now af-
firmed the sentence imposed on Bow
ling in Breathitt county. The testi-
mony showed that Ora Crawford, a
son of Sam Crawford, had hit Bow
ling with a rock after the latter had
struck the young negro with the butt
Of a revolver. The testimony showed
that Bowling had killed the elder
Crawford while the latter, with hands
raised in appeal had begged him
not to shoot.

In the local court a judgment
has been handed down by Cir
cult Judge R. L. Stone in favor of
the plaintiff in the case of Geo. M. Ell
ison against H. M. Bosworth auditor,
for $250.41 Ellison was appointed
jailer of Whitley county to fill out
an unexpired term, and presented a
bill for IS cents day for keeping
prisoners, this being the amount
named in the new law passed two
years ago. 1t had been held that
the jailers elected before the new
law was passed would not be en-
titled to the increase in pay from SO
cents a day to rs cents day for
boarding prisoners, but Ellison was
appointed after the new law went
into effect. The auditor refused to
pay the bill for the extra compen-
sation, on the ground that Ellison was
simply filing out the unexpired term
and was not entitled to any more
than his predecessor could have re-
ceived. An appeal was granted to
the Court of Appeals, where the final
test of the question will be made.
