APPROPRIATION TO RIVER
IMPROVEMENT INCREASED
House Disregards Committees Rec.
ommendation and Increases Rivers
and Harbors Allowance.

Washington, March 2S. - Disre-
garding recommendations of the Bud
get Bureau and of the Appropriations
Committee, the House Monday by a
three-to-one vote. added $4,000, 900 to
the amount carried in the measure for
river and harbor improvements.
An amendment to increase q lump
sum allotment from $27,635,26O to
$42,815,66l was offered by Chairman
Dempsey of the Rivers and Harbors
Committee, and was adoptd bv a vote
of 1853 to Sc. after three hours of
acrimonious debate, during which for
ty members aired their views. The vote
on the amendment was along section
al rather than party lines, Repub-
licans splitting on the proposal, while
most of the Democrats favored it.
The discussion was so protracted
that final vote OH the bill could not
be reached yesterday. The measure
probably will come to a final vote to-
day, with opponents Of the Dempsey
amendment privileged, under House
rules, to demand record vote on the
increase at the last minute.

JUDGE CuRRAN TRIES
FIRST CASE UNDER
NEWSTATE DRY Law
Negro Pleads Guilty to Manufacturing
sLiquor For Sale and Ia Given Low.
est Fine In Police Court
Caught In Lewis.

Constable Charles Moore, Of Lewis
county, arrived here Tuesday morning
with John Morton. colored, who he
had arrested at Holly In Lewis county
Monday afternoon. Morton was con-
nected with the Maggie Robinson case
Of moonshining. The woman, who was
arrested and held to the grand jury
when moonshine outfit was found In
her house, said the outfit belonged 70
Morton, who made his escape into
Lewis county.
y Moore was taken Immediately before
Police Judge Harry c. Curran for an
examination and he entered plea OF
guilty to the charge Of manufacturing
liquor for the purpose OF sale. Under
the new state law which gives lower
courts jurisdiction In such cases and
which was signed by Governor Edwin
p. Morrow only last Friday, Judge
Curran assessed fine Of ono hun-
dred dollars and q jail sentence OF
thirty days.
The new state law gives police and
magistrate courts final juridiction
over such cases and does away with
the expensive holding OF prisoners
taken up on such charges until the
next session of the grand jury.
Moore was committed to the local
Jail and will likely prove a very val
liable witness for the Commonwealth
In tho case against the woman.

|CITY GOVERNMENT
IS CONSIDERED BY
OUR WOMEN VOTERS
Necessity Of the Best City Council, the
Backbone Of Municipal Government,
Is Considered By Women
Voters League.

Very interesting and instructive was
the meeting of the Mason County
League Of Women Voters held Monday
afternoon at the Central Presbyterian
church. Mrs. George Longnecker, the
president, presided and quite num-
Der Of the members were present.
Municipal government was the gen.
eral topic under discussion and the
chief address was made by Hon. A. D.
Cole who spoke on How Our Munich
pal Government Functions" After
tracing the development of Anglo
Saxon Government, Mr.. Cole explained
how our present municipal govern
ment is related to the old Anglo-Saxon
idea.
Mr.. Coles address was followed by
a very helpful round table discussion
in which the new voters came to real
ize that the backbone of all municipal
administration is our City Council.
The necessity of good men on the
city's fiscal and legislative board was
fully realized and the women will en-
deavor to induce citizens Of the high
est type to enter the race. It was also
intimated that there should be council
women on this board.

tation of teh agreement between the
City Of Maysvilie and the town OF
Chester. when they came together. Mr..
Hutchinson was fined twenty dollars
and costs and he appealed. The fine
was suspended pending appeal but the
city did not force a trial on appeal
The case was tried on August %. 1916.
and the appeal was taken in Septem-
Der, 1916. Judge Newell ruled that the
case had been on the docket long
enough and dismissed 1t. .
The appeal of Sam Mullikin, VINO

FARM BUREAUS
ORGANIZED IN KY.
SO Counties In State Now Have
Active County Farm Bureaus
Helped Burnley Growers

Harry Hartke, chairman of the
Organization Committee of the
Kentucky Farm Bureau Fedora
ton, makes the following report
on organization during the past
year. Acting upon the Organ
ization Committee with Chair
man Hartke, are M. o. Hughes,
of Lexington, and J. Lewis Let
terle, of Louisville, with the as
sistance of Godfrey Morgan, the
State Secretary of the Farm Blu
reau Federation headquarters OF
Louisville.
The report shows that fifty
counties in the state now have
active county units with paid-up
membership.
The report Of the committee
shows that the hurley tobacco
growers have been aided very
materially in the formation OF
their successful commodity Or
ganization made up of 10000
growers. In connection with the
formation of the hurley growers,
the Kentucky Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton called convention at
Louisville in March which was
attended by the organization eX-
perts from all parts of the United
States. At this convention mum
erous plans for organizing to-
bacco growers were eliminated
and the attention Of everybody
was focused on the plan previous
ly advocated by Judge R. w.
Bingham and Aaron Sapiro. 1t
It the purpose of the Kentucky
Farm Bureau Federation to assist
other commodity organizations
in a way along similar lines fol-
lowed by the tobacco growers.
Chairman Hartke in describing
Farm Bureau organization ac-
conplishments, states as follows
"The work of tn Organization
Committee was centered this
year on strengthening existing

Bureaus rather than on starting
new ones. Practically every
Farm Bureau was visited during
the year by a representative OF
the State Federation and advice,
and assistance was given relative
to increasing memberships, and
strengthening the program of
work.
"The following new counties
were organized during the year;
Boyle, Grayson, Hardin, Lincoln,
Meade, Shelby, and Wayne, and
temporary organizations have
been formed in Garrard and Mad
ison.
Three assistant secretaries
were employed in the spring of
the year to assist County Bureaus
in organization work B. P.
Smoot worked in Western Ken
lucky; S. J. Lowry in the Central
West, and J. H. Offutt in Central
Kentucky. Letters received at
the State Federation Office indi-
cate that their work was most
valuable and much appreciated
County Bureaus.
"The State Federation cooper
ated with the National Fedora
ton by sending a representative
to Chicago to assist in working
out plans for a standardized form
of membership campaign. This
work has been completed and Iii
soon be in the hands of County
Bureaus. 1t will embody some
ideas from Kentucky's organiza-
ton plans.

DOCTOR HALLE:YS
TOBACCO SUCCESSFUL.

Harry Morgan, of Berea, this
year sold $500 worth of tobacco
seed from one-half acre OF to-
bacco of the DR.. HALEY type of
white Burley. Much of this sold
for $500 per ounce, after being
carefully selected in the field,
-trinlmed and cleaned. This same
one-haif acre has yielded leaf
tobacco which at the rate paid on
the two first pool payments, will
bring an additional $3.50. Four
hundred and fifty dollars from
half-acre of tobacco is not SO
bad.
