ROADS REBUILD PRISONERS

The voters of Kentucky In the ie-
cent election carried Dy u tremcn-
dous majority the constitutional
amendment permitting state prison
ers to work outside the prison walls.
Since 1891 Kentucky has forbidden
the taking of prisoners outside the
prison walls, the law having resulted
from abuses which followed their EN-
ployment by railroads and other pri-
vate corporations. Two years ago an
amendment TO remove this ban
was carried by n large majority but
declared unconstitutional. as the sec
retary of state failed to advertise 1t
for a sufficient period of time. The
supporters of the amendment saw to
II that no error occurred this year
and there will be no question as to
the constitutionality Of this amend
mcnt The majority, in its favor was
much greater than two years ago.
The successful passage of this
amendment is largely due to the on
thusiastic efforts of Col r, J, Nc
Dryde. editor Of the Louisville Times.
and Miss Linda Neville, the Kentucky
representative of the national com
mittce ON prisons and prison labor.
Col McBryde. speaking at the Ken
tucky conference of charities and cor
rections, told of the difficulty eXper-
fenced in bringing the Kentucky
prisons to their present standards,
which, though faulty, are AN immense
Improvement over the prisons of for
mcr years. Lobbyists had to be
fought, he stated, and a board of
prison commissioners which controll-
ed the legislature had to be over
thrown To secure the needed reforms.
Even yet the prison board Is part'
san affair, but taking handicaps into
consideration, it has done wonderful
work, aided by Wardcns Wells and
Chiffon. two of the best known prison
officials in the state.
The amendment viii permit Ken
tucl,y prisoners to be worked on the
public roads Bills TO provide for this
road work will be introduced into
the coming session of the lcgisla-
ture. The national committee on
prisons and prison labor has offered
TO assist in drafting these bills and
to secure the cooperation of the grad
uatc department of highway engineer
ing and the bills drafting bureau at
Columbia university,
The development of the convict
road work will have the enthusiastic
support of r. c. Terrell the state
commissioner of roads, who strongly |
favored the amendment, bringing be-
fore the people of the state the sue
cess of other states with convict road |
work
Kentucky badly needs roads and |
also better employment for her pris-
oners, at present leased to prison
contractors at 20 cents per day The !
first step has been taken in the pass
age Of the amendment. and the ma
tional committee ON prisons and pris.
on labor hopes by this time next year
to see kentucky prisoners building .

ZINC NEAR HOMER

Analysis Made Shows Deposit to be
Rich. Preparing for Development.
Prospects are good that the zinc
fields of Carter county will be given a
test within a short time. In the To-
cality of Homer some rich deposits are
said to exist and one of the owners
of the zinc deposits is Max Westheim-
er Of this city,
Mr. Westheimer has sent samples OF
the mineral to the state geological de
partment. The analysis shows 2O.S per
cent zinc and the geological depart
ment states that if the sample sent to
them is a fair representation of the ore
that it is a paying proposition.
Mr. Westheimer who is largely in
terested in OIL is of the opinion that
he will develop his mineral lands.
Zinc is now selling higher than it
ever sold for before and there is ev-
cry reason to believe that Carter and
Murray counties along the Arbuckle
mountains can produce a vast amount
of this mineral Two concentrating
plants are now in operation in Murray
county and some of the mineral has
been placed on the market and it has
been demonstrated that the mines can
be worked at a profit.

A Dog Race.

j. d. Moorehead, who accepted the
challenge of Uncle Sam Taliaferro of
Lone Grove for a greyhound race, is
of the opinion that he has the fastest
trio of dogs in the state. When the
race was held, four jack rabbits were
jumped and of the four the Moore
head dogs caught every one. Mr..
Taliaferro wants to see the race run
again, and it is probable that on
Christmas day the dogs will be
matched for second race.

of education. M

Americanborn and foreignbom alike adults and chill
dren to rally to American ideals purposes, and common
interests of many peoples united INTO one Natloh'
These mayors committees represent the city govern
ment naturalization officials boards of educatlon city
clubs Women'S patriotic and civic organizations social
agencies patriotic societies. and benevolent and 1raternal
organizations of fOregnbom residents. These commit
tees are arranging citizenship receptions for newly
naraized citizens and national Amencanlzatlon Gay
committee is assisting these mayors committees
Among the features for this occasion already adopted
by various cities the giving of special recognition to the
new citizens by having special admission tickets for them
and their families so that on entering the auditorium
they will be ushered to special raised platform on the
stage After American National airs have been rendered
by band orchestra or singing societies. the pledge OF

Among the things the speakers on this occasion will
emphasize are: That every foreignspeaking person in
America should learn English by attending the public

learn to read and write so that he can read American
newspapers and attend personally to his business matters
and that adults and children native and foreign born be
given civic training in both evening and day schools, so
that every one in country will understand the func
tons of our Government the principles of democracy and

ties at their disposal to make the coming Fourth of July
not only celebration Of our independence but day for
ing all classes, creeds and races into one intelligent
democracy.

WHY BRYAN HAS FAILED

One of the best analyses of the character of Wm J.
Bryan that we have read is that given by the editor of
the Medford Daily Sum- who admits that Mr. Bryan's
views are in advance of his times and then discusses his
case from that standpoint as follows
"Ihe point which so many rabd pro-Byantes fail to
grasp is that this very quality is responsible for the
general relief felt at his retirement from an adminstra
tive office. 1t is embarrassing for Servant of the
people to be ahead of his times behind them His bust
ability to reflect this popular WILL whether from foresight
or hindsight is equally undesirable.

concern the administration of state department. upor
