How TO Improve Roads,


displayed in any one "industry" than in
the building and improvement of roads.
Some heap up their dirt in piles in the
fall and If it proves to be an open win
ter tho roads are impossible until dry
season sets in the next summer,
Crawford county discussed the question
oi pking her roads aud took vote on
that question at the election three weeks
ago, Tho vote was overwhelmingly against
the system of piking as proposed, result
Ing, YES" 1852; "No," 1875, leaving a
majority Of 1898 against. The farmers OF
that section have evidently caught onto
the systemrtic system Of chronic contact
ors aud county officials IN doing this kind
work. The correspondents to the Bucy-
rus Journal took the ground that the roads
they had were amply sufficient TO allow
them 10 transport all they could raise To
market, and twice M much more. A
Lucas county farmer used the same argu-
ment in this Office n couple OF weeks ago,
yet he said the officials and other interest
ed parties seemed determined 10 force the
plking of the roads upon them, which they
are mai ubIe I'm meet Since the defeat
OF the proposed system in Crawford, a

IS n singular fact, cited by those who went

The Riparian Decision.

Following is the syllabi of the decision
in the water right suit of Lux & Miller VS..
the Kern Land and Canal Company (Hag-
gin & Carr, which has been prosecuted to
obtain decree enioining the defendant
from diverting waters of Kern river:
The question being: Can private cor
poration divert the waters of water course
and thereby deprive the riparian proprie-
tors OF all use of the same, without COM
pensation made or rendered to such pro-
prietors? Held the owners of land by or
through which water course naturally
and usually flows have right of property
in the waters of the stream.
2 This property may be taken for a pub
tic use, just compensation being first made,
or paid in Court. Water to supply farm
ing neighborhoods is public use. and it
is for the Legislature to determine whether.
IN the exercise of the power of eminent
domain, 1t is necessary or expedient to pro-
vide further legal machinery for the appro
prlation Ton due compensation of private
rights to the flow of running streams and
the distribution of waters thereof to public
usesl.

his property from another, either for the
use OF the taker or for an alleged public
use, with any compensation paid or ten

THE Fresno Republican suggests statute
prohibiting aliens from owning real estate.
Some States have such law. For MANY
years in Massachusetts, no alien could be-
queath property. The law proposed by our
contemporary has merit. Why should the
alien be given all the privileges of citizen
ship save that of voting and holding
office, and he be exempted from all the
greater burdens and responsibilities? The
citizen must fight to protect his property,
serve on juries to settle disputes, afford
him police protection, without ability to
compel him to serve on possee, and so on
to the end of long chapter, proving how
much better off the alien is with us than
he can be under the jurisdiction of anv
other form of Government The Repub
ticdn says: eve believe that any white
man who does not make his home in this
country, or living here and not having the
patriotism to assume the duties and re-
sponsibilities of citizenship, should not be
permitted to possess our lands, and believe
1t is duty the State owes to its native
born and naturalized citizens to preserve
to them the right to own and occupy the
soil" Such a law as is suggested would be
an influence to discourage Chinese occu-
pancy of the country, and to encourage
aliens capable of becoming citizens to for
swear allegiance to princes and take on
instead the duties and exalted title of the
American citizen.

The Cotton Semi Tropic warns the peo-
pie OF that section against the folly of put
ting fancy prices upon lands and lots. 1t
declares that the practice is gaining there
and as result is driving intending in
vestors away. The same result will be
manifest wherever such a disposition is
manifest. 1t is shortsighted policy to
send up prices on fanciful and purely
speculative lines as the tide of immi-
grafton sets in. Demand will augment
values of course, and it should. but there
is beyond this merely fanciful figure that
deserves to be entitled "cinch.u and
which some owners Of realty put on lands
they have for sale, and for which there is
no excuse in capacity or desirability of the
soil, that is the measure of the greed of
the seller. At best, newcomers consider
all our realty values high, because thew do
not understand that we are selling climate,
not soil. They put our values beside those
of Michigan and Ohio and do not at first
realize that if our climate could be put on
the top of the best lands of those States
there would be an increase in yalue that
would put California figures to the blush.
