State Drainage Commission Winds uI
Years Business.

The state drainage commission
practically completed it's business for
the year, and possibly for all time,
last Thursday. This business was
the final acceptance Of the work of
deepening and Strengthening Thief
river, regarded as one of the most
beneficial pieces of drainage work
ever accomplished by the commission.
The contractor was Mr.. Stevens of
Buffalo, N. Y, who, like most of the
other contractors on state drainage
work, lost money on the job. These
losses invariably occur when the con-
tractor in bidding fails to consider
the probability of striking hard-pan
in going through the proposed route.
The average steam shovel can make
but very little progress in this sub
strata, while the diamond pointed
shovel makes slow progress at best
and the expense is far beyond the
yardage bid. It was here where Mr..
Stevens lost money and when the
commission accepted the Job last
Thursday and directed the payment
to. him of the final estimate he was
several thousand dollars short and
was obliged to use the profits on Jobs
IN other states in order to pay bills
incurred in connection with the Thief
river work. The commission could
DO nothing more than pay him the
contract price, compliment him on his
perfect work and regret his loss. Sew
eral other contractors on similar jobs
for the state have gone into bank
ruptcy as a result Of their bidding and
attempting to make good, and surety
companies have been forced to carry
on the uncompleted contracts. One
needs but study the history of the
commission to understand that the
state has always secured favorable
bids, and that in most cases they
were entirely too low.
The commission has practically no
more funds to continue its work and
unless the 1915 session makes spec
lal appropriation the office Of engi-
neer, will have to be closed and the
engineer and other employees dismis-
ed on account Of no funds. There re-
mains unfinished the Roseau river
project, which involves deepening and
Strengthening that river as provided
for by special law and appropria-
ton, and also some Typographical
work in which the commission and
the United States government are
jointly interested. With the new
year two Of the three old members
of the commission, retire, Governor
Eberhart and Auditor Iverson, leav-
ing Secretary Of State Schmahl as
the only member Of the surviving
commission who is familiar with the
work. The. other two are to be sue
ceeded by Governor-elect Hammond
and Auditor-elect Preus. st. Paul

Our Master.
We may not climb the heavenly steepo
To bring the Lord Christ down.
In vain we search the lowest deeps,
For him no depths can drown.
Nor holy bread nor blood Of grape
The lineaments restore
OF him we know III outward shape
And in the flesh no more.
He cometh not Eing to reign
The worlds long hope is dim.
The weary centuries watch in vain
The clouds Of heaven for him.
Death comes, life goes; the asking eye
And ear are answerless
The grave is dumb; the hollow sky
Is sad with silentness.
The letter fails. the systems fail,
And every symbol Wanes.
The Spirit overbrooding all,
Eternal love remains.
In joy Of inward peace or sense
OF sorrow over sin
He Is his own best evidence
His witness is within
No fable old nor mythic lore
Nor dream OF bards or seerB,
No dead facts stranded on the shsFo
OF the oblivious years.

NASHVILLE. Tenn, Dec. 26.-The

CALUMET, Mich, Dec. 27.-Inabil-
ity to give away one cent of the $685.
900 collected for relief Of the fami-
lies stricken by the Christmas eve ca.
tastrophe in Italian hall, in which sew
enty-two persons were killed, today

Members of every bereaved house
hold that was approached told the
men and women in charge of the dis.
tribution that they had been promis.
ed adequate aid by the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners, and nowhere was
any assistance wanted.
Members of the relief committee
selected at yesterdays mass meeting
attributed this unprecedented condi
tion to the rumor that the man who
started the panic among the striking
copper miners children wore the EN-
blem of the Citizens Alliance, an or
ganization opposed to continuance Of
the strike. To combat this sentiment
they obtained from Anthony Lucas
prosecuting attorney Of Houghtor
county, statement that he was sat
isfied from the progress Of his in
vestigation that the man who RAISED
the cry wore no insignia OF any kind

Concerning the other money, DR..
Payne is of the opinion that there
will be no great difficulty in getting
the other subscribed money in the
bank, but It will take some time. I'm
til that time the college is losing In
terest on the 100000 as well as the
/ $450,000. The greatest difficulty in
rapid collection is the fact that there
are 300 or 400 small subscriptions out.
A few large ones made by prominent
New York and other eastern philan-
thropists have not yet been paid, but
no difficulty is expected in collecting
these as soon as the college is ready
for them. The latter will be turned
over soon, when the respective boards
and trustees which handle the philan-
thropic funds meet and pass officially
on the matter.
DR.. Paynes movements for the past
month have been guarded with the ut
most secrecy. It is little known
fact that he has been in Nashville
since Dec. 3, for he has remained in
close seclusion on account Of the
heavy work that had piled up during
his three months absence from the
city. When the success of the cam
paign became apparent DR.. Payne
went to Bermuda for short recrea-
tive visit after his strenuous months
in New York and the attendant ner-
vous strain. The final success of the
Greater Peabody donations was not
assured until late in November.

CRIMINAL COURT
DOCKET LARGEST
IN ITS HISTORY
ALMOST ONE HUNDRED CASES
WILL BE CALLED AT JANU.
AIRY TERM.
Gov. Hooper May Be Called Upon to
Assist In Getting the Fualtives
Back to Maury to Help In Building
Road& 9.

The docket for the January term
of the county criminal court has just
been completed by the clerks and
shows a most remarkable bunch Of
cases to be tried. It is decidedly the
largest docket the court has ever had
and the clerks are OF the opinion thai
1t possibly doubles all past records.
This Is the result of the close and
determined investigation Of the last
grand jury. A few strokes like this
and it is expected that there will be
even less than therefore,, for it is
believed that when the petty viola
tors discover that the grand jury will
not overlook their delinquencies there
will be more care in conduct gener.
ALLY.
The docket shows almost one hun
dred cases, in exact numbers eighty.
nine. These are the cases on the
docket that are to be disposed of at
the January term, and do not include
the cases that were returned by the
last grand jury and disposed of since
its adjournment, which numbers
about fifteen, nor does this number
include the seven or eight cases
against Fred Hood, that are held up
under motion in the attack in the le-
gality of the court. These added
would run the number to approx
mately H..
The indictments for the different
offenses are for illegal whisky selling,
so; carrying weapons, 20; unlawful
ly carrying whisky from one county
to another, 5; profanity, 4; obstruct-
ing public road, q; petit larceny, q;
assault and battery. 2: libel, /; sell
ing pistol, /; aiding prisoners to es-
cape, /;
1t will be noticed that there are
fifty-ive whisky cases, which outnum-
bers the indictments at the last term
of court, but this excess La account
ed fir by the fact that some of these
are cases carried over from former
term Of the court.
Another noticeable feature Of this
long list is the fact that it does not
contain a single indictment for gam
ing. Bone rolling appears to- have
been displaced by the more profitable
business of bootlegging, with less
hazard.
While a large number of the WINS
ky law violators are negroes they are
not all confined to the colored race,
and while there are more separate In
dividuals among the negroes, there
are large number Of indictments
against the white, two of these indi-
vidauls facing about thirty. Incl
dentally it may be noted that there
is a current report which is NOT fully
denied that some Of these bootleggers
have joined the birds and flown for
more congenial chimes.
There has been no definite deci-
sion reached in the matter, but Gov.
Hooper may be asked to issue a requi-
sition il these aforesaid fugitives
do not show up in proper time, as
their whereabouts are known by the
officers.
