grants. His letter to Representative Johnson of Washington. chairman of tho house immigration committee was purely a formal one transmitting 'paraphrased abstracts of reports concerning immigration received from officials of this government who have been abroa." It was in the ap- pendix of paraphrases. prepared by n bureau of the state department. that certain classes of immigrants were characterized unfavorably and that certain abstract recommenda- tions of agents were referred to.
 The statement that the recom- mendations were those of Secretary Hughes and that the characteriza- tions were his own was an error which the Associated Press regrets and in fairness to MT. Hughes read lily acknowledges of its own accord.
 Many representatives in congress, however having foreign born con- stitnencies. although acknowledging that the paraphrases of the reports to which they object were not those of the secretary complain of their transmission and publication as com ing from the state department with an official letter of transmttal from it's head. They also are protesting to the department on the ground that the statements are incorrect.
 The paraphrase of the reports con-
New Britain herald., 1921-04-21

ceded that there are of course many individual exceptions' to the classes which were characterized as un-. desirable immigrants but the con- gressmen nevertheless take excep- tion to the document. While Secre- tary Hughes personally signed the letter of transmittal it is understood that he did not personally read the reports which were attached in the usual manner in which replies to con- gressional requests for information are prepared.
 Although the officials who pre- pared the paraphrases edited them vigorously before they were permit, ted to go forward they are frank in saying they feel now they did not edit them vigorously enough. The original reports in some instances went much farther than the para phrases in the characterizations which are being objected to.

The Shower Bath
BY $. L cRIEBEL, Sanitary Engineer.

BY S. L CRIEBEL, Sanitary Engineer.
Too little has been said in the past about tne
advantages of the shower bath. We are reahzihs
more every day that a home is not complete WIN
out a shower bath. They can be installed as easly
in an old home as a new one, and for the benenOs
derived, the cost is very small.
There is nothing so refreshing as to step under
a shower bath in the morning or on a hot summer
day (and they will soon be here again). 1t taxes
considerable nerve to step into a tub OF cold water
but with a shower it is over in a minute. Also
there is the time saved that it takes to fill a tub
with water. And from a sanitary standpoint 1t Is
far better to battle in clean running water.
A space three feet square will a
shower nicely, or if you do not have this space, 1t
can be placed over the tub and a curtain made of
heavy duck run around the tub will keep the water
from splashing on the floor.
The supplies can be exposed or concealed. The
concealed make a finer looking bathroom and will
cost very little more.
If you are thinking of putting in a shower be
sure and have a mixing valve also, which takes
care of the temperature at which you desire the
water. They are SO constructed so that it is i'm
possible to turn on ~scalding water when we first
open them. The water can be regulated speedily
and the same even temperature kept all the time.
The dial on the front is plainly marked cold, warm
and hot and the handle has an indicator which
points out on the dial the temperature yau may
desire.
Why not step into your local plumbers show

Verne Jones Pardoned
By Gov. Morrow

The "unwritten law today was
recognized by Governor Edwin p.
Morrow in the granting Of pardon
to Verne jones' a travelling sales
man, sentenced at Mt. Sterling to
serve two years for killing Wood
son Henry, who had twice elcped
with Mrs. Jones chad a right to pro-
tect his home; defend his honor"
In long written statement, Gov
ernor Morrow detailed the circum-
stances Of the case. Jones, a travel
ing man, was living with his wife
and four children at Mt Sterling,
when Henry persuaded the wife to
elope to MiddIetown, Ohio. Jones
finally located them in Cincinnati,
where he met Henry on the street.
He caused Henry to be arrested and
on his promise to let Mrs. Jones
alone, took his wife back and moved
to Moreland, KY. Henry failed to
keep his promise and later again
eloped with Mrs. Jones, taking her
to Mt. Sterling.
Jones went to the latter city to
attend court. Meeting Henry in a
restaurant, the deserted man opened
fire, killing Henry.
Jones was tried twice, the first
jury standing IL to for acquittal
and the scond, after standing 6 to
6 for time, compromised on two
years Imprisonment. Seven members
of the convicting jury signed the pc
tition for Jones' release.
In granting the pardon Governor
Morrow said: 'This father and hus-
band had a right to protect his
home; defend his honor. Henry
gambled with death and lost. I can
not and do not believe that this man,
who has served six months in the
penitentiary should be longer con-
fined there. do not believe that the
laws Of God or man or the ordinary
law of the human heart demand his
longer punishment
II believe in the home and the
sanctity of the fireside and the pur-
ity of wife and mother and holding
fast to these beliefs, I am persuaded
that Verne Jones, having exercised
all other means at last was driven
by desperation to defend his hoce,
his children, his honor"

The most exciting election ever
witnessed in this section Of Ken
lucky was the Mt. Sterling Advo-
Gates gigantic subscription cam
paign, which came to successful
close at o'clock last Saturday
night.
1t was an exciting race. The num-
ber of votes cast for the various
contestants ran up into the millions
and it was a late hour Saturday
night when the judges who worked
hard, finally made the grand totals
and announced the results. The ut
most accuracy was observed by the
judges in tallying each contestants
votes, and to say it was difficult
and tedious task is putting il too
mildly, but the systematic manner in
which the judges conducted the
count was so thorough that there
was no chance for an error. The
votes were counted on an adding
machine and the results were then
checked and rechecked to make
sure the count was absolutely cor
rect.
1t was undoubtedly the closest
race for the grand prizes ever wit
messed in this section and until near
the close Of the count, even the
judges were wondering what the
outcome would be, so close were the
leading candidates for first posi-
tions. Mrs. Albert Bolts won the
first grand prize and Miss Eleanor
Bowen the second grand prize. Miss
Virginia b. Coons won first prize
in District No. and Miss Edna
Yocum first prize in District No. 2.
Quite a number Of other candidates
received large vote totals, which
stand as big testimonials to the es-

until it became the most talked Of
subject in this section. The last few
weeks especially, the interest was
intense and ii was practically a
neck-and-neck race down the home
stretch.
II is doubtful IL there was a home
in this section that was not vitality
interested in the success of some
one of the contestants before the
race came TO an end Votes literally

not appear high up on the list Of
winners. They have increased their

Farmers Meet to
Protest Land Taxes

AT a meeting Of farmers of Mont
gomery county, KY, held in the
courthouse, Mt. Sterling, KY, July
30, 1921 at 3 P. M. Meeting called
to order by r. T Judy, who stated
its purpose of protesting against
the increase Of taxes on land in
Montgomery county.
Permanent organization was then
made by duly electing Jesse T. High
land, president and Thomas j. Big
staff, secretary.
The following resolutions we're
read and their adoption moved by
r. 7. Judy, after being discussed by
Lem Upton, r. T. Judy, T. J. Big
staff, T. B. Hill and Thomas Coons,
and upon being duly seconded we're
unanimously adopted to-wit:
"Whereas the county tax COM
missioner of Montgomery county is
now listing farm lands at the same
sum as same were listed last year,
and whereas farm lands and farm
products have greatly deprecated in
saleable value. Now, therefore, be it
resolved that it is the sense of this
meeting that farm lands should not
be assessed at more than seventy
five per cent. of the same named
last year and we recommend all
farm land owners TO reduce the as
sessment of their farm lands twen-
ty-five per cent in making their re-
turns for the purpose Of taxation,
believing this to be just and fair
and in keeping with the assessment
of other kinds of property. We also
urge the owners of farm lands
throughout the state to do likewise,
believing that by a united effort,
the justice of our position can be
demonstrated to the state tax COM
mission and those in authority"
Upon motion duly seconded and
carried the following committee was
appointed by the president to con-
fer with other communities and other
counties IN Kentucky upon these
questions: T. B. Hill, r. T. Judy,
A. S. Hart, w. X. Prewitt, Lem Tip
ton and T. ]. Bigstaff. Upon mo-
tion Of Rankin Whitsitt, which was
duly seconded and carried, the fol-
lowing committee was appointed by
the chairman to ask and collect one
(1c) cent per acre from each farm
owner on his land in Montgomery
county, to defray any legitimate ex-
penses attached to this movement,
and If none, to be returned to their
respective contributors.
