NEXT MONDAYS MEETING


BY proclamation Of Gov. A. H. Rob-
erts, following the passage of a res
olution by unanimous vote in both
houses, mass meetings will be held
at the courthouse in each county seat
at ! pm, Monday, April 7, when the
people will be asked to come forward
and express their will relative to the
passage Of an enabling act which will
permit the governor and comptroller
to issue serial bonds not to exceed
$50,000,000 to supplement federal and
other state road funds as the funds
are needed from year to year to carry
out contracts made by the state high
way department in the completion
of a definiate system Of state high
ways. In the measure recommended
by the joint legislative committee APP
pointed by the speakers of both
houses for the purpose Of prepar-
ing legislation which will give Ten
nessee a definite highway system,
whatever bonds are issued by the fis-
cal department Of the state on the es-
Inmates of work to be done during
the current year by the state highs
way department, will be retired, the
interest paid as well as the mainte7
nance Of the state highways and the
expense of the state highway de-
partment without a penny's increase
of the general tax of the state. The
automobile owners of the state assur-
ed the joint legislative committee
that they would be willing to pay
this increase in tax which will make
this plan possible, providing they
are given definite assurance that
state highway system of perma-
nent type of road will be completed,
The legislation on which an ex-
preston of the people will be asked
on April lays out a definite system
of roads in the state highway sys7
tenn so that assurance is given the
people Of the state, the roads which
will be included in the system.
The plan follows one which has
been adopted in the states Of Illinois,
Pennsylvania, Michigan and other
states, and which is up for considera-
ton in 20 other states. In addition e
to give assurances that the road sys-
tenn will be completed, the enabling
act permits the governor and the >
state highway department to go Il
ahead with the completion of the sys- .
EN- of highways just as rapidly as it =
is possible to efficiently do so. This y
is considered highly important, as "
It is recognized that the more quick
" the system of roads can be con- u
structed and in use the greater ben II
Eft it win be in the development of u
the state. 1t will also enable the 6
state to give more employment to
It's citizens, which is generally recog-
lized as being greatly needed at this a
line. The state highway department r
an commence the construction of al 3
,tate highway with definite know M

Eternally attune thy heart, and sense
A baby's COO and mothers smile or tear
Of sympathy, laughing rill and song
Of bird at rosy dawn and ev'ning star
And wandering zephyrs wooing violets
And aged pine that chants at eventide
The flowers lullaby, as Cynthia draws
About their forms her silv'ry drapery
Aglow with twinkling stars. Diurnally
The earth revolves so ev'ry nation in
It's turn may daily greet rising sun
And share it's glory and beneficence
Till eve and sunset glow, prophetic of
Returning morn. Can We arrest the sun
Of liberty and peace that none but We

The story OF Wisconsin's oldest
courthouse, at DOdgeville, Iowa coun-
ty, is told by A. o. Barton in an ar
t1cle which is soon to be published by
the Wisconsin Historical Society at
Madison. Over its location was wag-
ed, 60 years ago, bitter fight be-
tween Mineral Point and Dodgeville.
Mineral Point, the older town, had
been the county seat and Dodgeville
wanted to be. The struggle lasted
several years, and two referendum
votes, both in favor of Dodgeville,
were taken by the citizens of the
county. The first election was an
nulled by the supreme court of Wis
consin, the news being carried to
Mineral Point by a special courier,
who arrived at three o'clock in the
morning. Within a few minutes
writes a contemporary chronicler,
the entire population was aroused
by the clangor of church bells, the
boom of cannons and the rattle of
musketry." The wild celebration last
ed for hours, additional cannon being
brought from Warren, ILL.,, to add to
the uproar created by the local artil-
lery."

.BONE-DRY JULY 1ST?
FORWARD PRESS SEEMS TO FEEL
DECIDED UNCERTAINTY CON
STITUTIONAL DIFFICULTIES.

The Forward Press of March 14th.
a prohibition paper issued at Madi-
son, has the following to saw:
The heppard-Barkley bill for the
enforcement of the wartime prohibit
ton law, has failed of enactment tho
favorably reported by the judiciary
committee of both houses. With the
rush of legislation in the closing
hours of congress, it was decided that
it would be useless to try to push it
through. What will be the actual eff
feet of the wartime prohibition law
is problem. The necessity for the
bill, as a war measure, will be we'll
over by the time it goes into effect.
The next congress will probably be
in special session before July 1. Will
that body decide to provide strict en-
forcement for the measure, or repeal
it and thus give the liquor traffic an
other six months lease of life, or SIM
ply let it go as it stands?
The last course is the most prob
able. But the bill as it stands is very
unsatisfactory. While it is made un-
lawful for anyone to make or sell in
toxicating liquors, it is made the bus
mess of no one to enforce it. Then
too, there is no definition of intoxi-
eating liquors. Will three per cent
beer be allowed? No one can say
authoritatively. Then there is on clear
distinction drawn between beverage
purposes and medicinal or scientific
purposes. Many big loopholes are
thereby left open
While the maximum penalty-$1000
fine and one years imprisonmen t-is
great enough, no minimum penalty is
prescribed, and some courts may

Assemblyman Chilson of Merrill,

or constabulary force of Is to Is men.
The measure provides payment Of
$4,000 for a superintendent, $4,000 LIST
assistant, $1,000 clerk, $1,000 steno-
grapher, $500 captains, $500 lieut.
enants, $1,000 sergeants, and privates

also provided. The special duties
will be to patrol rural districts and
principal highways and to cooper
ate with local authorities in law en-
forcement.

make the penalty only nominal. With
a prohibition administration, there
will be real prohibition under the
bill. With lax administration, as is
much more probable, the results will
be far from satisfactory.
There is still another possibility
that decentralization will have so far
advanced that President Wilson will
use his authority to annul the meas
ure. While we hope for prohibition
July 1st, we are not certain of it.

IOWA GOVERNOR DENIES BRIDE

Gov. Warren Harding of Iowa, de-
MES that he accepted a bride of
$4,000 given him for the pardon of
Rathbun, youth who was convicted
for rape of young girl. Rathbun
was sent up last fall after a brief
trial. During the winter his pardon
was granted and instantly Iowa was
ablaze. A grand jury investigation
followed at Ida Grove, Rathbun's
home, and the boys father stated
that through Clark, his attorney,
Harding was handed $4,000 after re-
fusing $4,000. 1t looks squally.
