Grafton making four touchdowns, two
of which were made on fumbles. The
last quarter they were held but the
Warren boys were unable to score on
them Two OF the Warren boys were
hurt during the game Ernest Hanson,
halfback, unfortunately broke his arm
during the first few minutes of the
game. He will not be able to make his
appearance in football togs for the rest
of the season. Lindstrand. fullback,

that spontaneous combustion of oily

BOYLE COUNTY VOTES is
CENT PROPERTY ROAD TAX

A special road tax of Is cents on
800 to take the form Of a special
property tax, was voted in Boyle
county Saturday, 961 to 22S.
Voting was heaviest in the four
Danville precincts, others being af-
fected by the inclement weather. Only
two precincts voted against the pro-
posal, the other twelve showing ia
vorable returns.
The tax is to construct a Federal
aid highway, 81 miles through Boyle
county. The highway extends from
Hart to Madison counties. The cost
will be approximately 100000 for
the construction in Boyle county, the
government to meet one-half the cost.
The proposal has been agitated for
some time.

RAILROADS BACK TO
PRIVATE OWNERSHIP

On Monday, March LIST, the rail
roads of the United States were re-
turned by the government to private
ownership. 1t is understood many
radical changes will be made, some of
which will affect the local travelling
public. 1t is rumored there will be
change in the schedule on the c. &
o. and it is likely the night train to
Washington, which now arrives at
Z AS will arrive about hours later,
thereby enabling one to transact bus
mess in Louisville and return the
same day. Other changes are also
contemplated and will be announced
as soon as official notice is received.

Midland Trail Goes
Through Kentucky
Only TranscontInentaI Highway IN
This Country Passing Through
the State
(By Rodman Wiley)
Vice President Midland Trail OF Ken
lucky, Eastern Division

Il
lucky, Eastern Division
The Midland Trail in Kentucky
passes through the following coun-
ties: jefferson, Shelby, Franklin,
>Woodford, Fayette, Clark, Montgom-
cry, Bath, Carter, Rowan and Boyd,
starting at Louisville, the metropolis
of Kentucky, and ending at Ashland,
the metropolis of Eastern Kentucky.
The Midland Trail is the only trans
continental highway in the United
States which passes through Ken
lucky, and although 1T was designated
only few years ago, a great deal OF
interest has been shown in the road.
At the present time The road is in
excellent condition from Louisville to
Lexington, and Fayette County has
completed her road with the excep-
ton of about four miles. Clark
county, it is hoped, will this season
reconstruct the road entirely through
that county and it is rumored that
Montgomery and Bath will provide
the funds to build their road in 1920
and 1921.
In Rowan county arrangements
have already been made to build the
road from the Bath county line to
Morehead. 1t is yet necessary to make
provisions to complete the road from
Morehead to the Carter county line.
Carter county is. letting contracts just
as fast as the plans can be prepared
and by the end of this season it is
believed that the road will be graded
entirely through that county for a
distance little short Of forty miles.
Boyd county will complete its sec
ton this season.
A meeting was held at Ashland,
Ky, on January II, for the purpose
of hearing reports from all the Mid
land Trail counties. The meeting
was well attended and the general
sentiment was to have the road ready
for dedication at the end of this year.
Committees were appointed in Clark,
Bath Montgomery, Rowan and Carter
counties and a general committee was
appointed to assist the local com
mittees as much as possible, the aim
being to arouse sufficient enthusiasm
to get the necessary funds to COM
plete the road.
Some of the committees report that
there is a general sentiment i'm the
various counties in favor of doing the
work now and no doubt a direct tax
or bond issues will be voted to pro-
vide the funds.
Most of the credit for the success
of the Midland Trail in Kentucky is
due to DIR. R. r. Gilmore, who at this
time is president of the Eastern di-
vision of the Midland Trail. The
State Highway Commission of West
Virginia reports that the Midland
Trail in thatState has been completed
with the exception of about nine miles
and with the completion of the road a
great deal of business will come to
Central Kentucky and not only from
West Virginia, but from all Eastern
Kentucky.
