Disclosures follow thick and fast, in
volving men in high place in every de
gree Of turpitude, and yet they bring no
punishment nor is there any shock TO
the moral sense of the country. In
Washington the thing had become so
fragrant that Congress raised joint
committee on Retrenchment. Gener-
ally such committees uncover nothing,
their proceedings are farce, and they
travel about the country at the cost OF
the people, whitewashing everybodys'
knaveries they pretend to investigate.
But a fraud seems to have been perpe-
trated on a railroad company in Ohio
$50 glaring that something had to be
done about it. The case clearly in.
volved completely on the party Of some
one holding a very important position
in the Treasury Department. 1t seems
to have been managed with uncommon
ingenuity. A drawback not due,
amounting to several thousand dollars,
was obtained by forging an interlinea'
ton which the officers of the road re-
fused to insert in certificate signed
by them. The connivance Of some per
sons in the Treasury Department was
secured by a woman, who received 500
therefor. A detective was sent to Chi
cago, where he found the woman, but
nothing could be made out of her, and
her accomplices could not be discovered.
The case could not be worked up
without this link in the chain OF evil
dence. The fact was proven, but the
woman would make no disclosures, and
the committee was baffled. The Char
man, Senator Patterson, found the wo
man in Chicago and she made a clean
breast of it. lie has returned to Wash
ington surprised and alarmed at the ex
tent of villainy, which disgraces 'oul
Government He SAYS there are mys
tcries unsafe TO disclose and he adds
that the woman in Chicago gave him tc
understand that the halt had not beer

Roads and ROad-Making.

Ofprimary Importance to the civil as
well as military power Of any country are
good public thoroughfares. Rapidity and
cheapness in transportation are vital me-
cessities to commercial prosperity, and in
time of war the safety of a nation may
depend upon the state Of her roads. These
facts have long been recognized, and hence
the perfection of roads has been a problem
to which engineers have in all ages assid-
uously applied themselves The impor-
tauce of even slight advance in improve
ment has kept alive interest in this depart
ment of engineering, and century alter
century has elapsed without the perfect
ideal being considered as yet reached.
That this is true is proved by a very
brief review Of the Patent Office records,
in which patents for various compositions
for road surfaces, and for methods Of
road-building, constitute every year no.
table number of the patents applied for
and issued. "- ai ias1I a...4 ns.9 a
Probably the most remarkable success
ever yet achieved by any one system was
that which attended and still attends the
macadam road. Notwithstanding its ex-
pensiye character, il to-day covers more
surface in Europe than any other. Ii
America, except in the vicinity of largf
towns, this road is not much employed

tion and the small amount Of travel IN ru

few circumstances under which this roa'
is NOT admirably adapted to town an

of the track, which could be easily done
on the grounds l have suggested. / can
see that no injury can. be, done to any
town by a change of location, except to
the town of Elmore. The inhabitants of
that town would be compelled to travel
about one mile furthor. 1t would be no
further for Wolcott, Morristown or Stowe,
aud would be Of advantage to towns north
and west Of the location named. Now,
at this point, | desire to say that | have
no objections to the present grounds, pro-
vided they can be enlarged properly and
purchased for a reasonable sum, and if the
land now occupied could be purchased as
reasonable as the miles fat" I certain.
ly would favor its purchase merely on the
ground that there is already much work
done and property located that could be
made available, if the grounds were en-
larged and the track changed, as it would
need to be. '" ~ DOB.
am satisfied fifteen acres of land can
be purchased on the " Niles fiat " for the
sum of about $1,000, in such shape as
would be required. [ believe a track
can be made for 5000, and the present
property of the Company moved on to the
new grounds for 500, The fence would
cost about 700; other expenses might be
500; making in all, the sum of $250O.
The Society now has op hand about $500,
which ceuld be invested in the stock of
the Fair Ground Company, and whatever
the other property of the Society is worth
in cash when sold could also be invested
in stock. This would leave balance to
be provided for of about $4,000. Now, is
there any doubt but what it can be raised
by dividing it into shares of $25 each ?
In my mind there is no doubt if the farm
ers are inclined to take the matter in
hand. ' '''.' ...'
1t is quite work, yet | believe it to
be worth an effort. In this plan the bur.
den is thrown upon the Fair Ground Com.
pany, and not upon the Agricultural Soci.
ETY.. The Company will be managed by a
board Of direction like any other corpora.
ton, and will be responsible, and believe
under such an arrangement, success is
certain. ''''.'..' .. r
have thrown out these suggestions, mol
that | desire their adoption, but that the
subject may be well considered by thi.
Club, and some substantial move made II
the right direction. ..+ ''
In my mind there is nothing that car
add more life to the farming interests of 8
community than to have in its midst live
Agricultural Organization, which shal
yearly give living, wcl-managed ant
profitable exhibition.

as l have detailed, or to one like it thai

menced at an early day. ft -rfe.d3
