Dropped Dead On His Way To Train

W. A. B. Davis, superintendent of
public schools of Rockcastle county,
dropped dead at Mt. Vernon while
running to catch the train for Louis
vile Wednesday morning. He was go
ing to the Kentucky Educational As
ISOLATION meeting and getting late
start from his home, was rushing to
the depot to catch the train, which
had already whistled for the station.
Just as he reached the depot he fell
and expired almost instantly. De-
ceased was about 60 years old and
was an excellent citizen. This was the
second term he had held as superin-
tendent, the other being a number of
years ago. He was a worker in repub-
lican ranks and his counsel was sought
by many of the successful politicians
of his county. A postoffice was named
for him in the rural section, but it
has been discontinued. The name was
made up of his initials Wabd-
which was more easily remembered
because of the popularity of it.

LATEST NEWS OF THE WAR

Peace talk continues to be heard
on all sides, though each and every
party to the conflict insists that there
can be no peace until it gets what it
wants, which leaves the experts won
dering whether or not there will be
any peace until the combatants have
exhausted their resources of men.
Still, the persistency of the talk leads
those who are hoping for peace to re-
new their efforts.
England insists that Germany will
have to sue for peace and that heavy
indemnities and considerable terri
tory is to be the price paid when that
time comes. Evacuation of Belgium,
restoration of that nations sovereign
ty and the payment of an indemnity
to compensate that nation for the de-
struction wrought; cesson by Ger
many of Alsace and Lorraine to the
French and the payment of an in
demnity for invasion of French ter
ritory; cession to Russia of German
Poland, Galicia, and possibly addi-
tional territory; cession to Serbia of
Bosnia and Hergovina and division
of the African German colonies
among the allies are the things the
allies are at present insisting on be-
fore there can be any peace. The Ger
mans ridicule such terms and say
they are put forth at this time purely
for effect and to counterfeit reports
of general exhaustion.
Kitchener has landed his new Eng
lish arm of 100000 men in the
western theatre of war and fighting
will soon be. on gigantic scale there
where killing will be carried on in a
manner even more wholesale than be-
fore. The armies facing each other
there are entrenched in trenches
reaching from the Swiss frontier to
the North sea. The French express
confidence that they will be able. to
penetrate this solid wall whenever
they are ready Germany, however,
has reinforced the old army and is
confident of being able to hold firm
until the Allies have enough.
The Russians have invaded the
plains of Hungary, according to Lon
don reports. Russian and German Of
fetal reports are both to the effect
that they are winning in the eastern
zone.
The Dardanelles have been quiet
for several days though a dash up
the straits for ten miles by an attack
ing warship without mishap is re-
ported. The English and French late
in the week were reported to have
landed 10000 troops near the Gulf
of Saros to make land attack on

County Judge James P. Bailey
said that the fiscal court of Lincoln
county was preparing with local funds
and with state aid funds to build the

State Court Upheld County Unit Law

The county unit law enacted by the
Legislature in 1914, under which
many of the counties in this state have
voted dry, is valid statute. The APP
pellate Court so decided Tuesday in
affirming the judgments of the Mont
gomery Circuit Court in the case of
ID. HI. Young against B. w. Trimble !;
the Shelby Circuit Court in the case
of A. F. Hitter against G. w. Waddy;
the Bourbon Circuit Court in the case
of T. F. Brannon against William N.Y.
all, and the Scott Circuit in the case
of George Lancaster against James
W. Thacker. The Bell county case was
not consolidated in this opinion, as
there are other questions involved.
AS soon as the mandate is handed
down by the Appellate Court steps
will be taken to compel the enforce
ments of the county unit law in these
counties. The legal sale of liquor will
be prohibited in the counties named
in 80 days. Forty saloons are affect
ed. An appeal may be taken to the
Supreme Court of the United States
in these cases, as it would enable the
liquor men to sell liquor in Shelby
vile and Mt. Sterling until after the
Supreme Court had passed on the
question. There were but two ques-
tons raised in these cases. The first
was that the county unit law did not
conform with Section 81 of the consti-
tuition. The Court, however, dismissed
that point in few words. The second
question was whether the act of 1912,
which is now Section $3.50, of the
Kentucky Statutes, was repealed by
the act of 1914, which is now Sec
tons 1854 and 1857 of the Ken
lucky Statutes. The Court held that
it was not repealed.
