STORY DEPICTS START OF FREE TOUR TO COAST

With the knowledge that the wonder fair at San Francisco, including the expositions at Denver and San Diego, have been completed for your delighted Inspection long before the scheduled time, you now are prepared to start in your mind's eye as a guest of the Palladium on the big trip which you will take this year to the Golden West. Ybu have succeeded in securing the 9,000 votes, represented by subscriptions to the Palladium, and as a result are a member of the big special train load of happy ones who are impatiently waiting the moment for the train to leave its shed in Richmond. All members of the Palladium's big pleasure party to the coast and return are like . one family. In the literal sense each is a winner. There is much happy excitement about the depot much fluttering on the part of the women in the party and an equal amount of joyous mingling by the men. Many exhortations are heard as to sending letters and postcards enroute, so that folks at home may know the progress of the eventful journey from Richmond across the continent. Just take a look at the cameras. They are everywhere, in all 6izes and proportions, from the flat pocket kodak to regular box shape, big and little. From appearances, the homes of many Richmond people are going to be decorated by exquisite photos of the many beautiful scenes that lie between Richmond and the Golden West. They will serve as reminders of the trip for many years afterward. Finally, the moment has arrived for the big Pullman train, with its load of laughing, chattering Palladium guests to pull out of the depot on the first stretch of its journey through several thousand of miles of the greatest country in the world.

JACKSON TOWNSHIP WANTS MORE ROADS IN COUNTY SYSTEM

Farmers Pay Tax on Three Times Amount Spent to Keep Six Miles of Highway Repaired. Jackson township farmers have awakened to the fact that they are paying out large sums of money annually for the support of the county road system and receiving small returns, i A meeting of farmers, including the biggest taxpayers in the township and the township trustee was held yesterday and Highway Superintendent Jones was called to verify the belief of the tax payers. When the meeting closed the farmers and trustee said they would make an effort to have twenty-five miles of township road transferred at once to the county system. Pay Ten Cent Tax. The township has a large mileage of township roads and only six miles of county road. They are paying a ten cent cash road levy in addition to a fifteen cent work tax levy for the support of the township roads. In addition they are paying the nine cent county levy. Belief was expressed that removal of twenty-five miles of township road to the county system will reduce the township road tax almost half without adding materially to the county tax. The sentiment was that Jackson township was paying into the county treasury for support of county roads three times the amount spent on them and the balance of the money was going to other townships where the mileage of county roads is greater. Superintendent Jones assured the farmers that he would give them plenty of work as he has done in other townships, quoting his last year's report which showed that 3,000 different farmers received work under the county system. If the Jackson township farmers succeed in bringing in twenty-five miles of road, it will increase the county system to 318 miles and give Jackson township a total of thirty-one miles.

PROHIBITION FORCES FIGHT CAUCUS OF DEMOCRATS ON WRIGHT BILL

S. Edgar Nicholson Believes if Legislators Vote the Wishes of Constituents, the Measure Will Become a State Law Holds Indiana Would Go Dry by 100,000 Net in a State-wide Election?

The temperance forces of Indiana are fighting to prevent a caucus of Democrats on the state prohibition bill in legislature, S. Edgar Nicholson said today. Mr. Nicholson said if the legislators vote conscientiously and in accord with the wishes of their constituents, the Wright bill will become a state law. "Taking into account the growing hostility to the liquor traffic of the railroads, of .our manufacturers, of our wholesale and retail merchants, of our farmers, of our professional men, to say nothing of the churches, schools and colleges, I would not be surprised if the sentiment of the state is dry by 100,000 net," Mr. Nicholson said. "There are ninety-two counties in Indiana. Five and six years ago sixtynine out of eighty-two counties voting showed a net majority of more than 72,000 against the liquor traffic. Another county, Brown, was already "dry" by action of the county commissioners. Does any one doubt that a vote in these several counties today would reveal a largely increased "dry" majority in the aggregate? With only rare exceptions the local option elections held more recently under the existing law indicate a substantial and positive growth in the anti-liquor sentiment in Indiana. $ "It has been said that our legislators should not be compelled to face an issue like this that was not in the last campaign. But what did our senators and representative accept elect

ion to the general assembly for if they are unwilling to accept responsibility for any issue of legislation that has back of it in good faith, any substantial and reputable body of citizens? Our legislators are representatives of the people and are not supposed to be mere automatons to register something already accomplished. "Did the legislature shrink from considering the question of abolishing capital punishment merely because it was not an open issue in the last campaign? The calendar will reveal the introduction of a vast number of bills upon subjects that were not even mentioned in the last campaign, and some of these bills have already passed the legislature by a combination of Democratic, Republican and Progressive votes.
