Closing Day At Kentucky General Assembly 1910 Drama
Getaway closing of the 1910 Kentucky General Assembly featured reversals in caucus pledges as lawmakers defeated the Louisville Ripper Bill and an income tax measure.

Little Chance For Bond Issue In Kentucky Assembly
In Frankfort Kentucky the general assembly will not bond issue unless there is an extra session. The house rules committee refused to amend the bill approving a $500000 bond. Governor Willson privately says he may call an extra session to pass the bond and county unit bill, though doubt remains. Rumor claims Senator Mike Taylor of Fulton praised his prison examinations but the prisons commission censored and trimmed the report. The original document was barred from printing due to criticisms of prison staff described as Napoleons of finance.
