Kentucky and
os'' New Counties

The Kentucky senate, by avote
of seventeen to sixteen, tabled =
bill to create a new county to- be.
named in honor of Gov. Stanley
The close friends of the governor
have been ardently pressing thR
bill, though Governor Stanley
himself is said to be neutral.
The practice in that state Of
building a monument to the man
" no occupies the gubernatoriaI
chair by creating a county and
giving it his name became, some
time sine, a farce, and it is to be
hoped that the friends of the
present governor will let the
matter resi- as it is.
Tennessee, which has ninety
six counties, would be better off
with fewer-and no new county
has been created in this state for
many years. Kentucky, with a
smaller area, has 120 counties
and is constantly trying to make
still more.
For a number of years past,
attempts-some successful, 9th
ers unsuccessful-h ave been
made to create counties in honor
of governors. When j. O. w.
Beckham was governor, several
bills were introduced to create
Beckham county, and finally one
of them was passed, the bound
aries to be defined in the bill. But
when the surveyors went to run
the lines, they found a marvel
GUS comedy of errors. Accord
ing to the bill creating it, Beck
ham county, Kentucky, crossed
the Ohio river aud ran to a point
several miles into the State Of
Ohio. 1t cut one Kentucky coun-
ty in two, so that the people liv-
ing In one end of it would have
to cross another county to get to
their own courthouse. 1t other
wise mutilated the map of two
states and infringed the right of
the United States to the waters
of navigable streams. The courts
held, of course, that the law was
fatally defective aud there is no
Beckham county.
But that did not deter other
egislatures from creating other
counties in honor of other gov
errors. Two or three years ago
they made a new one aud named
it McOreary, in honor of James
B. McCrearY, then governor. If
the thing keeps up, the time is
not far distant when the average
| Kentucky county will not be
large anough to contain two vot-
ling preclncts.-The Tennessean.

the Carnegie Foundation for the Ad-
vancement of Teaching, declared yester-
day at the New York university com
mencement exercises.
Mr.. Pritchett said further that the
contribution of the land grant colleges
to the preparation OF a reserve of citizen
soldiery was practically negligible" He
ridiculed the assumption of our legisla-
tors that military training could be
made a by-product of college course
Mr. Pritchett declared that many of
the land grant colleges made possible by
the Morrill, act of 1862 continue the re-
quired military training only ito obtain
the constitutional grant" that Others
give only the minimum of military
drill,o and that ''the individual student
in many cases seeks to escape his mill
tary duties with as scant performance
as possible" Under this act, he said,
2,036 students received training last
year, making a total to-day of more
than 100000 men between the ages of 10
and 30 years trained in this manner.
There were two things Mr.. Pritchett
thought that the college could do for the
cause of preparedness-frs to put a
stop to growing criticism and belittling
of the army and navy; and, second, to
encourage their graduates to enter life
where they would receive great cop
portunity to minister to the service of
men,"
