in value. The state is in no dan
ger of financial loss by keeping it
1t may prove to be a great value
to the student body. 1t is easy
to tear down but exceedingly hare
to construct, and the Legislature
can in a few hours destroy the
plans of the Board of Regents
that took years of thought and
research to perfect.
We stand for the farmer and
the farmer boy. They have not
had much done for them in the
way of legislation. Teaching az
riculture in the public schools will
undoubtedly be highly beneficial
to them as a class. The girls are
being taught domestic science and
useful arts. Why should not the
boy be taught some useful avoca.
ton?
This query arises: Why does
the Probe Committee want to
sell the farm of the Eastern Nor.
NAL and leave the farm of the
Western Normal for its use and
benefit? The entire state of Ken
lucky wants to know why this
discrimination is made.
We do not know the needs OF
the school and cannot discuss the
question as to the amount of an
nual appropriation required; but
surely the intelligence of the
Board of Regents and that of the
Legislature can be depended upon
to act wisely in this respect.
The Legislature should bear in
mind that Kentucky is pretty
close to the bottom of the list in
the point of illiteracy and efficien-
cy-that it is at the top in the
manufacture of liquor and in
criminals and, remembering
this, it should hesitate long be-
fore it takes a step, the result of
which will cripple this institution
to the chief detriment of the
farmer boy.
We have before advocated and
now advocate that agriculture
should be taught in the public
schools. Not only agriculture,
but all avocational pursuits should
be taught in a documentary way.
The world needs more artisans
and more farmers.
Surely the Legislature will do
nothing to cripple the educational
institutions of the state. On
ward, not backward, is the watch
word. Let not our actions be,
Penny wise and Pound foolish. "

On Again, Off Again

Hubbard Rogers who shot and
wounded Cyrus Elkin, last Sep.
TENDER in Estill county, and who
made his escape and has been in
hiding since, was captured last
week by Henry Reid, a constable
of Estill county. While Reid
was filling out a bond to be signed
young Rogers darted out the
back door and took leg bail anc

Then after it studies the fore
going propositions and compari-
son, let it do something to kill off
the manufacture of liquor and to
stop the liquor traffic.
The bread of the people is be-
ing turned into wfIiskey. We
have no statistics before us giving
the amount of corn and barley
raised in Kentucky, nor the
amount of native corn and barley
that is converted into alcoholic
liquors, but we know without sta
tiStics that the amount is a very
large one.
When that which is essential
to the proper nouriShment of the
people is taken from them and
converted into something that is
highly detrimental to them, both
physically, mentally and morally,
it is high time for the Legislature
to interfere and to prohibit the
manufacture of alcoholic bever-
ages.
A large portion of the best
farming land of the state of Ken
lucky is devoted to the raising of
tobacco, which gives no nourish-
ment to the people. This reduces
the acreage of corn and barley.
Then when it is taken into con-
sideration the large amount of
corn and barley converted into
stimulating drinks, it may be
readily seen that fully one-half of
the state of Kentucky is given
over to an industry that cannot
be profitable to the state in any
way. That which degrades and
lowers the citizenship of a state,
is highly inimicable to its prog
reSS.
George AIDE says that when a
man has to buy back his self-re-
Spect, the price is never too high.
1t may cost the state of Kentucky
something in actual dollars and
cents to prohibit the manufacture
of liquors in its borders, but the
price will not be too great for it
to pay to purchase back its self
respect. The amount paid out
annually for intoxicating liquors
would clothe, feed and educate
every child in the state of Ken
lucky to the highest point of eff
cheney and good citizenship.
With Kentucky standing forty
second in the list of illiterate
states, it is bad time to do any,
thing to weaken the efficiency of
the Eastern Normal School.
While there has been a report of
the Probe Committe recommends
ing a sale of the farm, and to re-
duce the appropriation of the
school, it is worthy of note that
nobill has yet been introduced to
carry this recommendation into
effect. It is to be hoped that
none will be. The farm is a val
liable one and will probably grow

lucky will see its way clear to de-

Bill. Representative Myers made
a bitter attack on Supt. Hamlet
during the discussion of the same.
He complained that Hamlet had
kept in office T. w. Vinson, a
Republican, and was paying him
the highest salary, and charged
that Vinson also drew a salary
from the colored Normal School
until about two months ago. He
charged also that Hamlett's wife
was on the pay roll. He further
charged that Hamlet was as big

Mexican Refugees
 To be Sent Back

Negotiations are about com pleted for the release of 5000 Mexican soldiers and camp fol lowers who for many months have been interned at Fort Win gate, IN. M.. and Roscrans, Cal. Provisional President Carranza has guaranteed safety of the re- fugees and it is expected that in a few days American soil will be rid of these visitors, whose pre- .sence cost something like $25, 900 per day.
 Most of the refugees are form CT federal soldiers who with their camp followers crossed into Texas following General Villas decisive victory at Ojinaga. Of these more than 5000 were first intern ed at Fort Bliss near Ell Paso, Texas. Later they were removed to Fort Wingate.
 Present negotiations provide for the release of all camp fol- lowers and soldiers below the grade of lieutenant. This leaves for future consideration the cases of more than a dozen gen erals.

Carranzistss Waiting At Waahing.
!. ton For Answer to q TeIe-
gram Sent the Chief


Washington. June 26,-Eepresenta-
tives OF the Mexican constitutionalists
in Washington tonight expressed con-
fident hopes that General Carranza
would accept the invitation OF the
South American mediators to partici-
pate IN informal conferences to com
pose the internal affairs OF Mexico.
Whether General Carranza would
accept the invitation. however, still
remained an open question, despite
the fact that some OF his agents here
had telegraphed him at Monterey for
definite answer. The message was
sent after the arrival in Washington
OF General Carranza's private secre-
tary. Alfredo Breceda, who brought
personal information from the consti-
tutionalist leader to his Washington
agents, Rafael Zubaran and Luis Ca
brera.
Mr.. ZubSZan tonight said he believ-
ed General Carranza would authorize
participation Of his representatives in
the proposed conference but that III,
military campaign against General
Huerta would proceed. Mr.. Cabrera
declared he was almost certain infor-
NAL conferences would take place. Mr..
Breceda said he was awaiting instruc-
.tiQps. ..55
MIR. Breceda brought to Washington
the positive Information hat It Is the
constitutionalists' purposs to continue
their military campaign regardless Of
peace conferences. San Luis Potosi,
II was said, would he the next objec-
tive point Of the army. After San
Luis Potosi the constitutionalists ex-
pect Huerta's troops to make their
last stand at Querataro Their leud-
ers insist that General Villa will be
on the verge OF entering Mexico City
within less than month.
With this military prospect assur-
ed, some cbhstitutionalist leaders are
known to believe .it would be better
to have provisional government es-
tablished in Mexico to supervise an
election shan to permit NJ military
force to do 30. General Villa, they
point out, is willing TO listen to rea-
son. General = Cafranza, theyl,b say.

/ Niagara Falls, Ont, June 26.-After
aiday <otP waiting with no word of the
plans. OF the Constitutionalists with
reference t0'<the proposed informal
conference with the Huerta delegates
over Mexico's Internal affairs, the me-
diation colony is showing signs Of
anxiety. 80
Few are certain that the Contitu-
tionalists will participate. 1t became
APPARENT today that although spokes-
men Of General Carranza had express
ed themselves ia favor of the confer
ences. the Constitutionalist chief had
by no means made up his mind. 1t is
expected strong pressure will have
to be exerted to persuade him to
agree to the plans as set forth by the
medfators when they outlined the me-
thode for the adjustment Of the inter-
national side Of the problem, leaving
the selection Of provisional presi-
dent to be determined by the two
Mexican factions.
The ConEtitutionalists' victory at
Zacatecas. 1t is recognized, may have
@ psychological influence on the stu
alton. If 1t. produces cohesion In the
Constitutionalist ranks and a lust for
more military successes, close obser-
yers think that the Constitutionalists
will be less digpossd to leave the ques-
ton to diplomatic discussion.
That the-American government will
! use its influence for the settlement
of the controversy by diplomacy is not
doubted here. The program of the
