That irregularities in the hand,

looked on by not a few, If not BY
the maj rites in Kentucky as a
matter Of co,.rse. Before the
state aid and supervision law was
passed. Kentucky was spending
alb ut 5000, 900 a year for roads
Outside of the roads built iu the
BIZ grass with State aid century
ago, there was little, if anything,
to show for the expenditure. Six.
ty-six counties didn't have and
never had had a mile of road
built by popular subscription OF
county levy. The money went
somewhere and the Msgistrtes
we're commonly reckoned TO gel
their share 1t was impossible te
begin an organized and compre
hensive system of road building
because the people had becom.
convinced that the more none,
voted for roads, the more would
be squandered
Then came the State aid ant

the State guaranteed to put up /;
dollar for every dollar raised BY
the county. 1t did more thar
that. 1t gave It's word that boil
the State and the cOunty's dollal
would be spent honestly and intel
lgently.
In April of this year, Kno1
county voted its bond issue. TW,
or three weeks ago the taxpayer.
of Knox county met in mass NEE
ing to ascertain why it was tn
the roads for which funds hat
been provided were not beins
built. Robert Terrell, the heat
of the State Bureau of Pubic
Roads met with them. He toldl
the meeting of the con tracts sub
mitted to him from Knox county
which he had refused to approx,
because the interest neither of tn,
county nor the State was safe
guarded.
The taxpayers recited the evi
dence in their possession. Tn
result was the adoption of a reso
luton urging the Judge of tn
Circuit Court, then in session, t.
bring the whole question befor
the grand jury. The indictmen

vcted of the murder of Mary Phagan

on q writ Of habeas corpus. Louis Mar
shall, representing Frank, took up ale
cations Of mob violence at Franks trial
Mr.. Marshall quoted from the states brief
that 1T appears that the agreement Of
counsel that Frank not be present at the
reception of the verdict was made in the
interest OF Frank and for his protection"
For his protection against what?" de-
manded Mr.. Marshall. Against the law
Against the constitution? Against his
rights TO hearing on his trial? No
For his protection against the conse-
duences of lawlessness, OF anarchy, of
mob domination. Our contention is that
in consequence of the circumstances
which then existed, the effect of which
was recognized by the presiding judge,
law ceased to reign. terror ruled in its
stead and fear sat trembling in the seat
OF justice. There was no longer court,
no longer a trial and no longer did the
court have any more jurisdiction over
the prisoner than II Judge Roam had been
driven from the bench by a mob. The
court had been superseded by judicial
lynching."
