THE woLFoRD WAY.

lie Highway divides, leaving
Adair county midway between
the two branches that pass
through this State, certainly the
next best thing for our county is
to connect with both roads.
This can be done by building
from Casey county to Metcalfe
and to Barren. In other words
Casey, Adair, Metcalfe and Bar
rem counties ought to build the
road and would prove of great
worth to all. We suggest that
this be agitated in the above
mentioned counties and ascertain
the sentiment of the people in
each county. The Eastern
branch of the Dixie consolidates
with the Boone from Stanford to
Cumberland Gap-the Boone
Highway having been located
first. This will give an Eastern,
as we'll as a Southern and North
ern outlet, and will be made a
great road. The Western line
passes through Louisville, Bards-
town, Glasgow and Nashville,
and as we understand, absorbs or
consolidates in large measure
with the Lincoln boulevard.
With a road from Stanford to
Glasgow we would be better
served and this entire part of the
State UNNECESSARILY better off
than had the Dixie passed
through our county giving only
Northern and Southern outlet.
The Eastern over the Boone
Way, the Western blending with
the Lincoln, the one comment
Grating the trail of a great
pioneer, while the other touches
the memories of the conservator
of the union-a link between the
two would be equal to both,
would put this section on the
map of good roads and do more
for its profit and pleasure than
the union of Dixie and Yankee
Doodle promised. Since the late
Frank Wolford, whose body rests
in the Columbia cemetery, was a
Colonel in the Union army, and
the fact that he and our mar
tyred Lincoln clashed in a sharp
degree in those days, yet loyal to
a common cause, we suggest
that the connecting link between
the two great highways, when
built, be known as The Wolford
Way, uniting the boulevards that
mark the first trail into Ken
lucky and the path that led to
the humble home in Larue coun-
ty, and long after the three con-
spicuous figures have been laid
to rest unite their memories in a
movement for peace, prosperity
and pleasure. Who seconds this
suggestion? Who is willing to
join in this great under
taking? Speak through the pa
pers of your county, or if you
choose here is space rendered fol-

the burden of tbe other three divisioua and consequently we no longer wonder why the solons waited until the last hour of the session to enact a revenue law.
 "The legislators from the Second, Third and Fourth divisions feared public sentiment and dared not take up this important bit of legislation earlier in the session and by a united action prevented the representatives from the First division from enacting an equitable revenue act. The bouu- teous and benign legislators of those divisions, being in the majority, tied our local representatives to the cross and held them there throughout the session for the final sacrifice"

The Poor Things

Speaking of the revenue act passed by our recent legislature, the Ketchl. kan Progressive says:
 "Even with only a glance over this act, we are forced to notice the burden imposed upon the First Division. Sev snty-6ve per cent of the burden has been loaded upon its inhabitants. Can. neries, salteries, fish traps, gill nets, cold storage plants and every ybody handling fish must pay a heavy tax Likewise, quartz mining, which is prac- ticauy confined within the First division, has heen burdened. But why has it been made SO, pray? Surely it was not solely for the support of the First Division, for one quarter of the present rate of taxation would have been ample to supply us with our needs. No, VIC have been loaded with

Memorial Day

Again we wish to call the attention of the residents of Douglas leland to the fact that Memorial Day falls on the 3Oth day of May. The early spring has brought out the wild flowers in great abundance. We should observe the day by covering the graves of the de- parted with these beautiful em blems of love and affection. Besides this we should plant flowers. Plant a dozen pausies and they will grow and bloom all summer. Shall we observe the day?

The Use of Explosives

Washington-The United States Bu reau of Mines, several years ago, issued a primer on explosives for coal miners which has been in considerable demand ever since.
 Now the bureau has issued a primer on explosives for metal miners and quarrymen, by Charles E. Munree and Clarence Hall The bulletin, which has just come from the printing office, says in it's introduction; "ln accidents resulting from tbe use of explosives in metal mines and quarries in the U. s. more than 130 men were killed and 250 seriously injured during the calendar year 1913. Moreover, an unknown number of miners suffered from the effects of breathing the harmful fumes and gases given off by the burning of the incomplete explosion of some ex plosive Consequently, the federal bureau of mines, which is endeavoring to increase safety in mines and to abol ish conditions that tend to impair the health of miners, is studying the kinds of explosives used in mining and the conditions under which the explosives can be used with least danger to the miner.
 "Inhammable gas or dust is seldom found in quarries or metal mines, and the danger from using explosives there is less than in coal mines; but, as the figures show, the number of men killed and injured yearly in accidents caused by explosives proves the need of both miners and mine officials striving to see tbat none but proper explosives are used and tbat these are used properly"
 The bulletin contains chapters on combustion and explosion; blasting aud mine explosives; fuse, detonators aud electric detonators; firing blasts by electricity; the use of explosives in excavation work; the use of explosives in quarryiug; the use of explosives in metal mining aud tu1neliug; drilling and blasting methods on New York rapid transit tunnel; magazines and thaw houses; permissible explosives, etc.

Keep the Schools Running

Some people in Douglas are trying to convince themselves and others that in the event of "dry" victory on the 24th inst , the United States govern ment will come Co the aid of the schools in Douglas. This is absolutely untrue. We had a government school in Doug las years ago, but that was before the town was incorporated. When the town did finally vote to incorporate, about April 1st, 1902 the school con tinued to run for about two months, but the department of education re- fused to pay the salaries of teachers for that time.
 The government does maintain schools for white children in Alaska, but in no instance within the limits of an incorporated town. So we can state as an absolute certainty that if we lose the saloon money the schools in Doug las must aud will suffer. This may be a matter of indifference Co some, but parents and all who love children should remember it. In fact this is the very strongest argument on behalf of allowing tbe saloons to run. No matter how strong may be your con victious on the liquor question, the i'm mediate necessity of the case demands tbat they be laid aside for the sake of this one thiug-schools.
 It may be that in future years some plan of action may relieve us of the need of license money to keep our schools running, but our children need schools now. The surplus in the hands of the city treasurer will be very small by August lst, and unless We get the license money the shortage must neces- ssrily fall on the schools. No system of taxation allowed under the laws which congress has given us would fn the deficiency.
 We present these facts for the careful consideration of the voters, aud defy any one Co prove them untrue.

A Matter of Revenue

Just at this time it is matter of in. terest to the people of Douglas to learn what are the possible incomes of the town in the event of a dry vote on the 24th. There is no sentiment to be gleaned from just plain figures. We have taken from the recent report of the city clerk the following figures, which give the receipts and disburse. ments of the town of Douglas for the past year with the exception of the S1319J paid by the saloons:

Come Over and Help Us

We understand that a great many people living in Treadwel have strong convictions on the liquor question, leaning toward the dry side, and are very apt Co vote that way on May 2tb. We have no word of censure for any man because of bis honest convictions. They belong to him.
 However, these are the very people that we ask to read the rest of this article During the many years that are past and gone Treadwell and Doug las have been as one people. We have shared our joys and sorrows. We have laughed together and we have wept to- gether. Now a critical condition has arisen in Douglas. A peculiar condition in many ways, but nevertheless a dan. ger stares us in tbe face. The law gives the people of Treadwell the right to give or withhold their consent to the the maintenance of saloons in Douglas Our schools are kept up by the license money. We have DO other resource.
 We realize that the people of Tread we'll are easily independent of our school system, but we ask them by reason os the bond of a long friendship to help us at this time.

The Juneau Extra Dry Club declares that Douglas sball be dry. Not quite so sure about Juneau. Some of the memb bers of the Juneau Extra Dry Club own property in Juneau and hold fat federal jobs in Juneau, and spend the time the government pays for writing stuff and nonsense about pro. hibitlon. But with Juneau wet and Douglas dry, we can see the finish of the Island town.
Douglas Island news., 1915-05-19

Besides the above there is a revenue from the city wharf which might be in- creased if the price of coal or the wharfage were raised. It might be that the tax rate could be doubled, but with all this there would still be a sad deficit, uules the school expense were cut dowu-a condition we would not welcome.
