About Roads.
Thornton Herald.

Good roads are essential things.
Enough rain has fallen in the past week
to call to the minds of our merchants the
fact that the roads leading TO Thornton
from the several different sections are
becoming impossible in places. During
the summer months there was necessa-
rily no need for good roads. They were
everywhere a little rough in places, but
firm and smooth as general thing, and
travel and transportation were unim-
peded. Agitation of the road question at
that time would have been effort wasted
but it is different now. Winter ia fast
approaching and the roads should be
fixed before they get too awful bad.
Every farm wagon as it drags
its slow length along our muddy
lanes loaded with maximum
of two bales of cottonior fifteen or
twenty bushels of corn is an object lesson
on the road question. 1t is killing to the
teams to pull through such muddy ruts,
and the teamsters-may the good Lord
have mercy on tbem-the evil roads that
encompass them about on ever side con-
nected with other tenn Dtations, so operate
upon their minds that they can hardly
keep from being profane. Strive to re-
move every impeachment to the progress
of good roads that lay in your power. 1t
behooves every business man in Thorn
ton to put his shoulder 10 the clogged
wheel and endeavor to extract all hind
RANGES of this kind. You want the pub
lie trade, but how do you expect to OBJ
tain and retain 1t IL you do not exert
some effort to secure it? See to II that
the roads are in good condition, then
offer inducements to bring the trade to
your town and we guarantee you will
meet with success. "a hint to the wise
is sufficient. -

THE advance Fort Worth Is making is
nowhere better evidenced than in the

a few years ago any dingy den with cob
webs for drapery and tioor stained by q
process not artistic, was good enough, but
now there are Offices in this city that
would be creditable anywhere in their

Indifference TO surroundings and to dress
