The value Of good country roads
is strikingIy illustrated IN the case
of Madison county, Alabama, Of
which Huntsville is the county seat.
That county has in its limits several
maeadamized roads, 80 the PEOPLE
have felt both the need and the
blessings ofsuch roads. The Hunts
vile Mercury says that the result is
that the land which has the benefit
of the turnpike sells readily at $50
and $50 an acre, while that which
has no such advantages sells for only
Sl5 to $40 an acre. So well conyinc-
ed are the people Of Madison OF the
value of good roads that the county
has obtained permission from the
Legislature of that State to issue it's
bonds to the extent of $4,000 for
the purpose Of building $50 miles of
well graded and macadamized roads
in its midst, so located as to give the
greatest good to greatest number in
the matter of reaching a market.

The city of Joliet, in Illinois, is
the latest shining example of the
wisdom and effectiveness Of High
License. Seven years ago it had 1877
saloons for population Of $4,000,
and the license fees being $25 each,
amounted to 1915. Under the
High License law the fee was raised
to 81 600. This closed more than
one-half the saloons, leaving only
fifty-fve. The largely increased tax
they pay supports the police the
firemen, all the city officers and
cleaning the streets. Having now
a population of about 10000, the
people Of the town are considering
the ACCESSIBILITY of raising the fee te
the enormous figure of $4,000. This
would, they believe, cut down the sa
looms to fifteen, while ut the same
time increasing the total revenue
Isn't better that the saloons should
be heavily taxed for the support Of
the government than that they should
go scot free, as they do in SO many
communities under Prohibition laws,

When the South American delegates visit

Governor Hills purpose to do the South or
the delegates good turn He had another
object, an object which more recent cir
cumstance is also furthering. Gov. Hill
goes this week to the Piedmont Fair in
Georgia, escorted thither by q company of
Georgians. OF course he will be received
there enthusiastically. Georgians always
receive visitor to one of their fairs enthu-
siastically. But Gov. Hill will be received
with more enthusiasm than usual, for is 1t
not already known in those sunny regions
that Gov. Hill has been at great pains to
describe to the South American delegates
the greatness and goodness of the South
We are glad that Gov. Hill is to make this
visit 1t is pleasant to see Governors of
Northern States enjoying themselves In the
Southern portions Of this reunited country
but 1t is not always so interesting to witness
spectacle of this sort as it happens to be
Just at this time. The truth is, Gov. Hill is
openly canvassing for the nomination for
the Presidency in 1892 At the recent con-
Yention of his part! in his own State friends
OF Mr.. Cleveland on the Slate committee
were displaced In favor of The friends of
Gov. Hill. He feels that he has his own
state: and with New York secured the next
place Tor Democratic aspIant to turn is

prophecy what success will attend this WOO

The New York electric light companies do
not manifest much disposition to put their

they appear to be taking advantage of all the
techncalities of the law that are available to
evade compliance with the Mayors order.
This is greatly to their discredit, and proves
certainly that the saying that corporations
have no souls is true in their case at least.
