PERTINENT QUESTIONS.

EDlToH Iowa COUNTY DEMOCRAT:
Now that Representative LaFollette
is putting in his surplus time mailing
to the people of this district, the
speech of the coy and modest Senator
ingalls, on the southern outrages, the
question with some of us is, what is
this for?
Has Mr.. l.. sized up his constitu-
ency correctly?
Do we demand do we need instruc-
ton in this line and from this source?
What senator's philippe may we ex-
pect by the next mail?
Is the attention of the Third dis
trict to he diverted from tariff tax
alton 10y this Subterfuge:
1t would be funny if the five great
counties Of this district should feel
enough interest in their own affairs to
elect man this fall to represent them
at Washington ?"
Does log rolling for a fourth term
demand So much Of Mr.. LaFollette's
time that none is left to devote to the
peoples interests.
In elccting Mr.. l.. have we done
nothing more for the district than to
place him in position to retain his
place? Would it be odd if our people
should happen to think they need a
man at the seat of legislation with
nerve and brains enough to prepare
ana urge to an issue a law which shall
say to the greedy cormorants who
swarm the Hobbies of congress, my
people believe that when they earn a
dollar it is their own, and you shall
no longer be armed with the taxing
power Of the national government?
If it would not take too much of
Mr.. LaFollette'S time from his polit-
ical fences, how would it do for the
farmers of his district 20 ask him why
it is that they pay $40 for binder to
harvest their protected crops, when
the farmers in Russia buy the same
implement for $50, after rail freight,
and shipping is paid?
Would his answer be an eloquent
gesture as he hands out one of Ingalls,
great efforts?
These questions come to the surface
during the days in which the years
work opens
Yours inquiringly,

Road Laws in Wisconsin and Illinois,

A correspondent of this paper, writ
ing from Ottawa, H., says:
The roads are drying, but are full of
ruts and very rough. The four-horse
road-scraper, however, is helping them
wonderfully. The road laws of this
state differ from those of Wisconsin;
and, IN the writer's judgment, are bet
ter. Here, every one pays his taxes in
cash, and men are hired to keep the
roads in repair; SO that the coalition
Of the highway does not depend on the
hardness of the busy farmer. When
ever a place is in need of repair, hands
can be sent to put it in good order,
thus saving the extra work that is
often required because of delay. These
large scrapers run along the roads as
soon as they dry sufficiently, fill the
ruts, break down the rough knobs, and
make the roads smooth, and save an
immense amount of wear and tear on
wagons and buggies, and is much
easier on both horses and drivers. But
farmers cannot be expected to leave
their crops, and work on the roads,
and yet, every trip they have to make,
is very hard on wagons, teams and
| drivers. This subject is well worth
the consideration of all taxpayers and
| travellers.
Ottawa has a large brick and tile
factory, a window glass factory, lamp
chimney factory, bottle factory, organ
factory, wagon, and farm machinery
factory, and Touring mills, which give
paying employment to great many
people. 1t is also, well supplied with
schools and churches, and seems to be
a reasonably orderly town. The cleo
trio street railways run through the
| principal streets from north to south
and from east to west. The lighting
of the city, however, does not keep
pace with the other improvements. 1t
is partly lighted by gas and partly by
electricity, and very poorly lighted by
both combined.
The white House" to most people,
means fiat, two-story, unpicturesque
white house, as the view generally
given OF it shows the severely plain
north front; but there are many other
views of the home of our Presidents,
and we are indebted to Demorest's
Family Magazine for laying them
before us. The May number of this
