THE BOND ISSUE.

Shall we have better roads
or back to the mud roads of
half century ago? The only
answer is in the affirmative.
However. some say we want
better roads in the county
but. We cannot have roads
that way. II once the main
arteries of the county could be
made of permanent construc-
tion so that the annual road
fund derived from county taxa
tion and state aid, could be
used on the lateral roads,
there is hope. BY voting the
bonds and building the propos-
ed roads there should be re-
leased about $4,000 each year
for the light traffic roads.
The bonds furnish the only
hope to the country districts
for better roads. There will
always be a passable road
maintained over the Richmond
and Lexington roads whether
the bonds are voted or not. but
these outside roads will go in
to the mud in the near future,
that are not already so. II is
more to the interest of those
who live out of the way of pro-
posed highway to vote for the
bonds than those who live i'm
mediately upon il.

The Tragedy At Lexington.

The loss of life on the streets
of Lexington Monday will long
fill the memory of the people
of the blue grass country with
sorrow and regret. II was but
natural that wild excitement
should follow the perpretration
of such brutal crime.
That men should conclude
that duty called them TO
avenge the foul deed with their
own hand after the law had
proclaimed and meted out the
death penalty to the perpreta-
tor, was the grossest folly.
The brute was in the hands
of the law, justice was swift,
punishment certain and severe.
While the toll of life il deeply
deplofaDle, Is was the natural
result of their rash and mis-
guided actions.
The officers of the law are
not to blame in any way. In
fact. they should be commend
ed by right thinking men every
where for their cool. cour-
ageous and determined effort
in doing their duty.
If there can be a eonsoling
thought in the whole unhappy
affair. il is that mob spirit and
mob law suffered an inglorious
defeat while organized govern
ment. law and order were
triumphant in the contest.
