ADMINISTRATION BUILDING
WILL Be FINISHED IN. JUNE

The new administration building
at the penitentiary, upon which work.
men have been engaged for many
months. will be handsome fire
proof structure of steel and stone
and in many repsects the most nota-
BILE of the prison group. 1t is 50x100
feet on its ground dimensions and
will be three stories in height, al
though the walls at present have on
ly attained to. two-thirds that limit.
When ready for occupancy the new
structure will take the place of the
present office building. which has
long been inadequate TO meet the de-
mands OF the institution. The new
quarters will be capacious and con-
venient and will afford ample room
for the officers OF the prison and the
discharge OF the business with which
they are intrusted. With its massive,
although cheerful, appearance. sup
plemented by a handsome porch Of
Colonial design. the building will
present a commanding frontage and
will give one some idea OF the clean
illness and system OF the institution
behind the walls. of which it is the
only representative to be seen as one
passes along the street.
All of the stone needed FOR the con-
pletion OF the building has been cut
out and only awaits the direction and
skill of the workmen TO placed in po-
sition on the walls. Operations.
which have been suspended for some
time, will be resumed next week, and
II is expected the building will be
finished and ready for use early in
the coming summer. probably by the
middle of June.

the undertaking. including the ar
chitect's plans, has been done by con-
victs. and the completed structure
will be a monument to their meehan-
ical skill. E. E. McKinnon has had
charge OF construction as building

man on the job that was not a pris-
oner of the institution.
The first and second floors will be
devoted 10 the use OF the clerical and
executive officers of the prison and
the third floor TO bed rooms for the
stitution who are required to remain
at the penitentiary at night The
structure, which would have cost be-
tween $50. 900 and 100000 II IT had
been erected by free labor. will be
finished with the appropriation OF
S12,0 900 made by the last legislature.
The $4,000 set apart for its con-
struction by the general assembly
belonged in reality 10 the peniten-
tiary and was accumulated from the

Beck ham hardly had time to formu-
late his policies, after Hoebel's death.
when he was obliged to stand for an
other election. The politicians were
against him. but the people were with
him, and he received the votes of 700
out OF the 800 delegates.
1t was in the palmy days of Mark
Hanna, and that astute leader, under
whose auspices Kentucky had gone Re-
publican in 1896, believed Beckham
could be beaten. The Republicans,
therefore, put up their best man ard
their stoutest purse, but Beckham won
by nearly a 600 votes. Three years
later there was no opposition to his
nomination, and he carried the State
by 27,00O plurality.
Towards the end of his second term
as Governor, Beckham, in 1906, be.
came a candidate for the United States
Senate. His candidacy aroused in
tense feeling in the camp of the liquor
interests. In the primary election for
the SenatOrship, in 1907, with the com.
bined opposition of the party machine
and the daily newspapers in Louisville,
Lexington, Covington and Newport,
the four largest cities in the State,
Beckham carried 81 counties out of l19
in the State, with the liqnor interests
furnishing a plethoric purse toward his
defeat. Beaten at the polls, the liquor
interests retreated to the Legislature,
and four Democratic legislators voted
at the beck of the whisky ring for
Republican.
BY agreeing to abandon the tenn
perance cause for which he had stood,
Beckham could have won but he re-
fused to trade-once more showing his
courage and his devotion to principle.
In my opinion, gained after jour.
ney last summer through Kentucky,
that sacrifice of Beckham for princi-
pie will make him the next United
states Senator from Kentucky as surely
as it defeated him then. If there is
anything in political justice, if there is
any atonement for political wrongs, Il a
people are not ungrateful or indifferent
Beckham will be rewarded. Not that
he looks for reward. Victory is not
always the true test of an honest and
righteous cause he said in public
speech after his defeat i'm 1908; "suc.
cess may have its pleasures, but failure
may nave its honor"
And let me add that, whether you
believe in prohibition, or in the en-
forcement of the law, or whether you
side with the liquor interests in Ken

1t was lett to Beckham, as the sue
cessor of Goebel. to smooth out the
wrinkled front of this issue. He fol
lowed the even tenor of his way, neither
compromising nor bullying, but doing
all things with an even tempered JUS
tice which wonthe people of Kentucky
and reconcled the enemies of Goebel.
Beckham comes of gentle stock. His
mother has occupied the Executive
Mansion at Frankfort both as daughter
and mother of Governor An uncle,
ex-senator Yulee, of Florida, entered
Beckham in the Central University at
Richmond, KY; but Senator Yulee
shortly afterwards diving, young Beck
ham, then seventeen, was compelled to
leave college TO look after the farm of
his widowed mother. Meanwhile he
taught school.
Beckham did not falter in the poll
cies for which Goebel was assassinated.
He got through the law advocated by
Goebel, allowing the State Railro Dad
Commission to regulate rates Under
his ADM nistration Kentucky's new
Capitol was built He showed courage
in this Others had recommended a
new Capitol. but no Governor cared to
put the power of his administration be-
hind it, because Louisville. on the one
side and Lexington, on the other, both
coveted the honor of the Capitol.
He collected from the Federal Gov
eminent an old war debt OF 81 300, 900.
He secured legislation fixing a maxi
mum price for school books, He es-
fablished two normal schools, and he
heightened the school term in the
country districts from five to six
months,
But il was in a bitter struggle for the
supremacy Of the law that Beckham
ran against Judge Ben Lindsey

some tragedy that can be traced, di.
rectiy or remotely, to strong drink. So
| the anti liquor crusade is sweeping over
the South Yet it was not in any spirit
of crusading that Beckhan locked horns
with the liquor interests of Kentucky,
1t was rather the thing that fell in his
way as public duty.
The Constitution of Kentucky, adopt
ed some twenty FIVE years ago, con-
| tanned provision that required the
Legislature to enact law giving each
county of the State the right to vote
itself wet" or "dry." This constitu-
tional provision, like the one that pro-
hibits railroad passes, was honored in
the breach. Indeed, Kentucky Legis-
latures have been prone, in matters of
reform, to adopt the policy of the Yer
mont Fathers, who resolved that the
laws Of God and Connecticut be adopt
ed until we have time to frame better. I"
Beckham obeyed the Constitution and
recommended the enactment of law
in conformity with it; but the liquor ill.,
terests succeeded in having exempted
the larger cities.
Then there was Sunday closing law
on the statute books, which was openly
violated in the cities, notably Louis
vile. Beckham was appealed to but
he had no power to remove derelict
city officials, and could make only a
moral appeal to the Mayor of Louis
vile to enforce the law, which was sue
cessful.
1t so happened that shortly after this
the Kentucky Court of Appeals decided
that the election of all of Louisville S
officials had been procured by fraud.
The offices were by the court declared
vacant, and the Governor was en-
powered to fill them by appointment.
Beckham went over the heads of the
party machine and appointed Mayor
with the understanding that the sun
day closing law would be enforced 1t
was enforced and is enforced today.
The 'rectifers" OF Kentucky make
product that is sold as whisky, but
which is made up of various occult in
gradients. They were doing an inn
mense business in Kentucky, and pay
ing very little in taxes. Beckham SCI
cured law that taxed these 'rectifiers'
a cent and quarter a gallon on their
product. Also, he secured the passage
of law prohibiting the shipping of
liquor into "dry" territory; but the Su.
preme Court of the United States held
that this was unconstitutional, so far
as II affected interstate shipments. The
Louisville man, therefore, could take
his whisky across the river to Jeffer-
sonville, Indiana, and from there ship

Denver, June l0.--The Farmers
Union in the northern part OF the

in his efforts to secure the necessary
number OF signatures to petitions to
abolish the state tax commission. 1t

the petition can be filed.
Farmers unions throughout the

CAPITAL TAKES TOO MUCH
MONEY, VICE PRESIDENT
TELLS MAINE GRADUATES
IBy Assoclated PC. }

Orono, Me, June 10.-Vice Presi-
dent Marshall delivered the principal
addIess here today at the University
of Maine commencement exercises.
He said in part:
"Slight knowledge will not enable
a man to assume the management OF
life's affairs. Complete knowledge
will con"ince him that the better re-
public is controlled by neither labor
nor capital.
In 1850 the proportion of the an
nual wealth created jointly by cap
ital and labor was one-fourth labor
and three-fourths capital. Now less
than one-fifth is labor and the rest
is created by capital. This dispro-
portion has much to do with the pres
ent discontent and usurious profit
has taken the place Of usurious in
terest."
