The best and quickest way of Sc
curing an Improvement in our roads,
and OF obtaining results that will be
more permanent, is to educate the peo-
pie, especially the farmers. who are
more nearly concerned in the matter
than any other class, to the appre-
cation of the benefits of good roads
and their economy. Once convince a
man that five dollars worth of labor
spent on the road passing his farm
means the saving of two or three times
that sum in the transportation of his
goods over the roads, and he will not
only join in the movement himself, but
viii see to it that his neighbors are in

AMONG the propositions which the
senate committee on immigration will
submit to congress, and which fall short
OF the entire prohibition of immigra-
ton, is one which requires all alien ilu-
migrants to renounce their allegiance
TO every foreign power as soon as they
arrive here, in case they intend to re-
main here. Such a law would prevent
the recurrence of such trouble as arose
with Italy over the New Orleans affair.

SANTA ANA, Oct. 30.-This has been a

of this city were sleeping off the effects

their efforts to defeat @. F. Bennett, the
Peoples party candidate for the assem-

ment of the Democrats of this county.
He is the peer of the Republican nomi-
nee for the same Office, who is man
of good morals, but possessed of no abil-
ity. To set at rest any idea that Ben
nett is not the choice of the Democratic
party, resolutions endorsing him have
been unanimously adopted by the DEM
ocratic county central committee and
the Democratic clubs of this county.
1t is generally conceded that the most
importont of the county offices will 60
