MUST BE
PUT OUT OF BUSINESS

The News extends its compliments
to Representative Lee, to Senator
Zimmerman and to the members of
both branches of the Kentucky Leg
islature upon the passage by prac-
tically unanimous vote, of the
measure which makes the second
conviction for bookkeeping a felony.
We do not believe that the 1916
Legislature has enacted many laws
which will prove more beneficial to
the State. Armed with such an effec-
tive weapon as the statute provides,
there is no reason why the bootleg
ger shall not be put out of business.
When the new law becomes oper-
alive, however, let there be no sick
ly sentiment upon the part of the
juries that he is being too harshly
dealt with. Let no juror hesitate
to find a bootlegger guilty because
that juror knows that such verdict
will send man over to the peniter-
thar for what has formerly been a
misdemeanor. and has been classed
as a minor offense.
1t is not within the province of
jurors to pass upon the justice of any
law of the Kentucky statutes. They
hear the facts, together with the
Interpretation of the law as made
by the court, and return the verdict
in accordance Herewith. A juror
goes out of his bounds when he
votes to acquit because he thinks
the penalty prescribed is too severe.
The News has long believed that
such a measure as the Lee-Zimmer-
man bill would effectively cope with
a class of criminals which Is most
persistent AID aggravating. We
await the results with hope and con-
fidence.-[Elizabethtown News.

OUR SOLDIERS GO
ACROSS BORDER
After Villa and His MUIR
derous Horde.
JOINED BY CARRANzA FORCE
On Other Side - Ordered To
Wipe Out Villa and His
Organization.
TAKE A WIRELESS APPARATUS

San Antonio, Tex, March 10
Brigadier General John ]. Pershing.
with more than 1000 troops, began
the pursuit in Mexico to-day OF
Francisco Villa, whose raid across
the border last week caused Presi-
dent Wilson and his Cabinet to de-
eide to use the United States army
to run him down.
Gen. Pershing's report that he
and his command had crossed the
international boundary line just
south of Columbus reached Gen.
Frederick Funston, in charge here
of general operations, late to-day.
His report served to dispel to a
great extent fears that had been en-
tertained in some quarters that re-
sistance would be offered by the
troops of the de facto Government.
Col. Bertani, the commanding Of
ficer of the Carranza garrison at Pa
Tomas, on the south side of the di-
viding line. promptly Joined Gen.
Pershing. His force was only some
400 men, but they we're reported to
have displayed willingness and even
eagerness to join in the chase. AS a
body the Mexican troops will remain
under their own commander, but a
number of them are being employed
as scouts by Gen. Pershing.
Reports of progress in the coun-
try where the search has been be-
gun will be made by Gen. Pershing
to Gen. Funston, but it is not antic-
ipated that these will be frequent or
deal with any but the more impor-
tant Developments.
Gen. Pershing has gone into Mex
leo with orders to overtake and
wipe out Villa and his organization.
Unless orders to the contrary are re-
ceived from those higher in authori-
ty than Gen. Funston the campaign
that was begun to-day will continue
until Villa is captured or killed.
This. it was said at Gen. FunstOn's
headquarters tonight, is the idea
of Gen. Pershing which he carried
with him across the line. No limits
have been placed on the field of OPP
erations. After the campaign is
well under way, it was pointed out,
circumstances may cause restric-
tions. but just now the troops are
prepared to go anywhere to carry
out the Presidents orders.
For communicating with Gen.
Funston, Gen. Pershing has taken
with him a wireless set. The field
radiograms. it is expected, will be
received 1T the Ell Paso station and
forwarded here.
Trouble MAY BE Ahead.
FL Paso, Tex, March 16.-The
Seventh and Tenth cavalry, said to
be advancing into Mexico by forced
marches from Culberson's ranch
near Hachita, N. NJ, were nearing
the Villa territory in the Casas
Grandes region tonight, according
to the most reliable information
that could be obtained here.
These troops are reported to be
marching with the minimum of
equipment and to be led by scouts

GOOD RECORD

solved the problem Of removing prison
labor from competition with free Ia
Dor has become the wonder Of the or.
ganized labor movement.
II has also attracted the attention
Of legislators who have been striving
to bring about the same results but
in a less practical way.
When Mr.. Whitman first determined
that prison labor should be made self.
supporting without contractors or be.
ing required to manufacture products
for the open market, he Immediately
set to work to prove his claims. He
first obtained the support of the city
administration in power at that time.
He was given every aid. The present
administration has also heartily sup.
ported the work.
In few years Mr.. Whitman has
revolutionized labor at that institu-
ton, made It self.suppOrting. and Is
accommodating a fund with which In
time the families of inmates will be
paid wages earned by their bread
winners while prisoners. Every
thought of this wonderful official is
for doing good. And here are few
of the things he has accomplished In
few years without the aid of brass
bands or startling announcements In
the press:
He has become the city's junk man
and will turn over to the various de.
partments 100000 year more than
they ever received for their junk. At
the same time from 200 to 500 inmates
will be given employment that will
not interfere with free labor.
All rags, tin cans and paper deliv.
cred with garbage at the reduction
plant will be removed to the prison
