CAPTAIN Of EMDEN
FINDS GENIAL HOST

land Did Not Know
War Was On.

London, Maya belated but
amusing account of the German cruz.
amusin account of the German cruis-
er Emden's visit to the island of
Indian Ocean, has reached London
by mail.
Diego Garcia is a British posses
sion peopled by forty Europeans and
500 natives. The great world war
had been under way for four months
when the Emden reached the little
island, but the people of the island
had received no mail for six months
and had no suspicion of what had
been passing. So when the Emden
sailed in one day, the elderly mana
ger" of the island paid a pleasant
call upon Capt. Won Muller.
The Emden had come to Diego
Garcia, explained Capt. Won Muller,
to refill her coal bunkers and remove
the weeds that had grown under her
hull. But when the island manager
asked what brought the ship to that
out-of-the-way corner of the world.
the Captain replied,T am carrying
out maneuvers with the British
navy"
The manager accepted the explain
alton and passed from the subject.
There we're other news of greater
interest to him than naval maneuv-
ers. What of the home rule bill?
Was there really any risk of civil
war over it?
Capt. Won Muller professed to have
no information on that subject. But
he did know, he said that the pope
was dead.
The Captain was so pleasant gen.
orally that the old manager said he
would have liked to pay him a sec
ond visit had not an accident to the
machinery of his motorbOat prevent
ed him. Won Muller was distressed
to hear this and sent two of his en-
gineers ashore at once to repair the
damage.
The manager was charmed with
this spirit of courtesy and entreated
the Captain to come ashore and al
low him to make some hospitable
return. But the Captain declined.
The maneuvers in which he was par
ticipating, he said, required all his
time, and he must not allow any
thing to. delay his departure.
Before the Emden sailed away,
however, the Captain sent his card
to the manager with farewell mes
sage, and with his card bottle of
wine and a box of cigars.

the expenses of government. These
expenses have to be met out Of the
taxes paid on the property OF our
citizens.
Any Legislation that would tend to
cripple or render less valuable any of
the great tax-paying Industries of the
State. viii necessarily transfer the
burden to the farmer, merchant and
home owner.
IL is time for every tax payer to de-.
maDd that his Representative in the
Legislature consider these facts. II Is
time for them to call halt to the
destruction, or threatened destruction,
by hostile legislation, of property in
terests in the State from which we
derive our greatest revenues.
In other words. industries and en-
terprises that pay the largest taxes
and make possible the great benefits
to be derived from good reads, good
schools, ard improvements in agicrul-
ture. must rot be destroyed or driven
from the STATE.
Good ro"de bring the country folk
and city FOLK into closer contact
means broader gagged, hand-in-h' nd
attitude toward public matters, toward
public good. May our Legislators and
every c't'rsn Uf the Commonwealth
LOOK forward to, plan and work togeth-
or so- a greater Kentucky; to conserve
every source of revenue for meeting
the STATE obiigaGols, keeping II out
Of debt; lowering the burden of taxa
ton; placing it where it belongs and
not throw the burden of the land own
er nor any other one class. May this
new dawn of greater Kentucky for
ever put stop to any movement that
would tend to cripple or destroy any
OF our great industries.
Good Roads or no good roads, we
can never move forward and take our
place in the galaxy Of great States
around and about us in progressive
ness, education, wealth and industry,
until we have become constructive
rather than destructive In. our legis-
lation.

least twenty-five millions of dollars
in The counties where these roads are
built.
This is a splendid beginning What
a difference this will make to the land
owners. the farmers and all others
who make use of county roads, wheth-
or Tor business or pleasure. There
are many fine farms in Kentucky 20
or more miles from the railroad that
are not worth half as much as II they
were near a railroad station. for the
reason that II Is too far to haul farm
products to market over the old-fash-
Toned dirt roads, which are practically
impossible for nearly half of the year
What a difference. though. when
these same farms shall have been con-
nected with the railroad or the mar
ket with a good State road over
which u is easy TO drive and haul as
compared with the old roads. To haul
a large load over good road, even
invent" miles. is easier and quicker
than 10 haul II over five miles of the
old time winter mud road. These
good roads, therefore, will bring the
distant farm nearer TO the market
and add greatly to the profits of the
products Of the farm.
Under the supervision OF competent
state and county road engineers, coun-
" seats and the most populous sections
OF the State will be connected by i'm
proved public highways. bringing the
church, school and market nearer the
door OF every family. Then viii come
new era OF prosperity in Kentucky.
With the markets thus OF ready ac-
cess. the farmer can market his prod
ucts q all kinds TO better advantage
in every way-dO il in less time. with
more ease. less cost and greater profit
than ever heretofore.
While good roads are more peces-
sary and of more economic Importance
than possibly any other civic improve
ment 10 which the people Of the State
can turn their attention. there are
other important things to be done.
Such wholesome tax reforms must be

One paper brought out the part

gave the result of a careful study of
advertisements in the newspapers of
New York and Massachusetts, from
1861 to 1889. showing the extent
and the varied nature of Jewish
mercantile activity of that period.
Another paper brought out the part
played by Jew-M0ses M. Hays
in the introduction of Free Masonry
into this country. Secretary Fried
enberg. as result of extended re-
search, reported that when the Rev
olution came the Jews. almost with

there were only two Jewish families
