political organization and will en-
deavor to raise $1,OOO,OOO, upon

ocrats, Republicans and indepen-
dents.

FIFTEENTH CENTURY ZEALoTs

In the year that Ferdinand and
Isabella furnished Columbus with
the means to start forth to discover
new world these Christian rulers
of Spain issued decree ordering
the execution of any unbaptized Jew
found in their country after 100
days. In their zeal for the Chris
ian religion they thought that in
prosecuting the Jews they were doing
the will Of God. A wealthy Jew Of
fered them AN enormous sum of
money to be used for their kingdom
if they would annul the decree. Fear
ing they might yield, the monk Tor
quemada, whom they had appointed
inquisitor-genera of Spain, sought
an interview with them, and holding
up crucifix, exclaimed, "Judas sold
his Master for thirty pieces of sill
YER Sell him again for a higher
price, and give to God an account Of
your bargain" During 16 years of
Torquemada's rule, over 5000 VIC
tins were given to the flames, co.
600 were condemned to perpetual
Imprisonment, and over 100000 Jews
were expelled from Spain. All this
was done in the name of Christi AS

fifteenth century in prosecuting the
Jews, was Saul, the Jew Of the first

PUBLIC DISCUSSION

&~@@%@@%%@@@~@@@@%&
Editor Leader-Some weeks ago
you very kindly published an article
that / wrote as chairman of the
Road Commission. Quite a number
of persons failed to grasp the mean
ing Of my piece. They came to me
as chairman and complained to me
about roads not being worked.
The Commission at its last meet
ing instructed Mr.. Darby, our sup
erintendent of roads, to urge ali
contractors to gee to work and put
tle,r roads in good shape. Recent
rains nave been very favorable for
r"d work, and ! I'm pleased to hear
that some of the contractors have
taken advantage of it and have done
good work.
The Commission will meet again
the first Monday in September, and
remember that all of our meetings
are public and not secret. Every
citizen ought to take an interest in
road improvement, and when good
work is done commend and encour-
age the person who does it. Your
contractor, superintendent or com
mission are helped by it. Should
your contractor not do his duty and
your road is being neglected, do not
sit around some place and abuse all
of us too much. Come before your
commission and tell US who the per-
son is and where the road Is that
is not worked. We can then instruct
the superintendent specially about
that road. And when this is done
and the contractor continues to neg
lect the road, l, as chairman, will re-
fuse to sign a warrant and he can't
get his pay, Furthermore, the law
says we can have the work done and
charge it to the contractors account.
This we have done in several in
stances and expect to continue doing
so.
If the people will come with rea-
sonable complaints before the Com
mission as / have indicated, we can
aid you. If person is not willing
to do this they should quit complain
ing. While am road commissioner
for District No. One and have spec
ial oversight Of the roads in that
district, am ready to aid and as
sist all the districts, but can't 90
into your district and see after your
roads; therefore /, as chairman, must
depend upon the road commissioners
and citizens in each district coming
before the Commission and candidly
and frankly informing us. No man
ought to take a road contract unless
he expects to do good work, and if
he can't do it he ought to surrender
his contract We have a good road
law and all that is needed is to en-
force it, and it can be done if the
commissioners, superintendent of
roads and the people cooperate
heartily.
We hope to have the superinten-
dent of roads prepare statement
Of what has been done by the com
mission in opening new roads, put
ting them on better ground, short
ening them and cutting out numbers
Of county bridges.
remember, too, that in Septem- |
Der, 1920, your commission had to
take charge of the workhouse and
prisoners. This placed more work
on the commission and added ma
terially to the labors of the super
intendent Of roads. Our superin-
tendent is giving his entire time to
the work and is the first man who
has done so.
J, R. HALL, Chairman.

AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION,
ETC.

AT several different places in the
city streets there are holes and OBJ,
structions that are dangerous To
both vehicles and pedestrians. Fol
several months the laying Of pave.
ment has kept several Of the main
thorOughfares Of the city torn up
The streets could not be repaired
without tearing up the old bed, and
it is necessary to keep traffic off
of these streets while the work is in
progress. Some of the streets have
been open to traffic, while there
remain holes and distractions that
are indeed dangerous.
Those in charge Of the work on
the streets, of course, are anxious
that they be opened for use as soon
as possible, and to business houses
on the streets it is quite important
that the streets be closed for as
short time as possible, but these
holes should be covered over and the
instructions removed.
These places are not only on the
streets where construction work is
in progress, but are on other streets.
We believe that it should be the
duty Of every city employee who
opens hole in the streets or places
any object there which endangers
the safety Of the public to take the
necessary steps to guard the passer-
BY. This is an important matter.
The public must be protected.

Covington merchants IN delivering
packages each day, are greatly han-
dicapped by the condition Of the
roads, bitches need opening on ev-
cry road, and just to think Of it, mud
holes that would stall team here
in Augustl
These are conditions that should
call for a thorough and full investi-
cation and a remedy for the trouble.
Hoping this may do some good
and help in mending our roads,
these suggestions are made.

Of Covington and have two roads
that can travel to town. There are
two bridges down on one road and a
bad mud hole on the other.

IN MEMORIAM
In, loving remembrance of my

I'm loving remembrance of my
brother, P. H. Somervill, who
died August 2S, 1910.
Four years have past since you left
US. brother, dear,
Yet your memory fingers with us
still.
Your place was vacant, long before
the merciless flames swept our
dear childhood's home away.
! am beginning to see that it was
the dear Lord looking down from
above.
Who saw your years Of suffering,
your faith and fortitude and in
wondrous love
Freed your accomplishing spirit
from behind pains cruel prison
bars,
And called you to Him to mingle
with saints and loved ones in the
glory land beyond the stars.
want you to know UP there how
have missed you,
And the years have been SO long
since ! last listened to your sweet
voice in song,
[ am trying to weave into my life
something of the courage you dis
played thro' all the long years Of
stress and strife;
Something Of the faith and hope, pa
thence and love you put in every
little duty,
That made your life-work a precious
benediction Of wondrous beauty.
Ican not, must not, would not call
you back; Gods will must be done.
You gave your life to service, your
all to God; your crown is won.
It is only left for me to follow your
footsteps, for | know the path you
trod.
Gloomy or gladdened, led never
away, but always and ever up to
God.
l know that some day, somewhere,
somehow, / shall cross over
Deaths turbulent tide;
To find you there waiting with the
tender brother love-light in your
eyes
To welcome me to Heaven, Gods
home beyond the skies.
There is no death. If | could under
stand
About the choir invisible, the ever
present angel band,
Ny soul could never bear life's sor-
rows, my heart the bitter pain.
As | go on weaving with threads Of
gray and gold life's warp and wool

Roads Need Work

Prior to Hon. j. R. Halls election
as road commissioner he was anxi-
GUS to find out where the road money
that the people were required to pay
went. We thought with him in as
commissioner we would not only find
out where the money went, but
would really get better roads. But
alas! our roads are worse today than
they have been in quite awhile. With
all the machinery and money the
county has drawn from government,
state and county, we do not seem to
have any better roads or know any
more about where the money goes
than Mr.. Hall did before he became
road official With labor being re-
duced nearly one-half, gas going
lower it looks to an outsider as if
we might get better results. Co
operation is all right in it's place and
should be made use Of whenever pos
sible. Hence people who are mot able
to pay their road tax should be al
lowed the privilege of working out
their time without going to any I'M
necessary trouble and the contractor
and superintendent should cooperate
with the people in the right spirit.
If landowner is willing to send
out teams with men to open bitches
some one should look after this work
and have the work done in workman
like manner. An culverts and bridges
should have the bitches open so as
to let the water run off and not run
back across the road. There are six
mail carriers going out of the Cow
ington postoffice, travelling over $50

these carriers is to the effect that
our roads are simply awful. These

Formal application for a change
of venue from the court of Judge
E. S. Smith and from Sangamon
county was filed in Springfield, H.,
recently by attorneys for Gov. Len
Small, under indictments charging
embezzlement and conspiracy while
he was state treasurer. 1t was indi-
Gated that efforts would be made for
separate trials for Lieut.-Gov. Fred
Sterling and Vernon Curtis, Grant
Park, ILL.,, banker, indicted with Gov.
Small.
Statements were exchanged be-
tween George B. Gillespie, Of the
governors counsel, and States At
-tOrney Mortimer over the question
Of the change Of venue. Mr.. Giles
pie urged the states attorney to be
more explicit in his recent offer to
grant change without opposition
and to name the Judge before whom
he wished arguments on the change
to be presented.
Mr.. Mortimer, in his reply, re-
iterated former statement agree
ing not TO oppose any attempt to
take the case out of Sangamon coun-
ty. He added that he did not care to
avail himself Of an opportunity to
name the judge before whom the
arguments for venue change
would be heard. He added, however,
that either Judges F. w. Burton or
n L. Jones, associates Of Judge
Smith, would be satisfactory to him.
