The need Of improvement in the quail
ity Of county roads is so severely felt in
every state of the Union that every in
telligent effort in that direction is
worthy Of recognition.
Most Of the states tan better afford to
have good roads than to worry along, a.
at present. with bad ones. Our roads.
as they are. cost us vast sums Of money
directly. and a far greater amount indi-
rectly in the increased cost Of getting
produce TO market. Better systems of
road supervision, better methods Of CON
struction and repair are absolutely nee
essary. The work is a vast one, but it
is indispensable. and it cannot be prose
cutcd too diligently. louisville Cour-

The southern road congress, which
met lately at Atlanta, brought out the
fact of the value of good roads, and the
pecuniary advantage of them was fully
recognized. Among the cases cited was
the experiment made in building good
roads by the people of Union and Essex
counties, N. j. The pecuniary bene-
fits resulting from this work are
summed up in a report from the board
of freehhlders of the former county,
which states that the total outlay has
been nearly $3.50, 900, and there are now
nearly forty miles of telford and macad-
am road in the county.
The beneficial effect of the roads is
seen in the fact that property in Union
county alone has appreciated in value
far more than the cost of the roads, as
the assessment shows. The county
issued $350,00 worth Of road bonds, the
interest on which must be met annually,
yet there has been no increase in the
county tax rate, because the increased
assessment easily produces enough rev.
enue 10 meet this charge. Very few Of
these roads haze been built more than
year and most Of them only a few
months, but already the people appre-
ciate the advantages flowing from them.
Such practical evidence as this will
certainly encourage roadbuilding in
the south. The movement so far has
made little practical advance here and
has been confined mainly to conventions.
ETC., but this is a step in the right direc-
ton. 1t is true that conventions in
themselves do not accomplish much in
the way Of roadbuilding, but they show
how the work can best be done; they
arouse the interest of the people in the
matter: they prove the value of good
and they will. in the course
of time, arouse the south TO the necessity
Of building them.-New Orleans Times.

DUR DAUGHTERS SOBER
Lady Henry Somerset Compli-
ments Her American Cousins
FOR THEIR TEMPERANCE HABITS
n.nie4 That Prohibition is Failure In
Maine, and Pays Tribute to the
W. c. Il. U.-Has Rap
at Gladstone

LIVERPOOL, April % Lady Henry SOM
srset. who recently returned here from an
extended visit to the United States, made
an address to tile temperance assembly in
,bis city. She said that the dawn of the
day had arrived which would bring their
cause a great victory. The temperance
marty in the United States, continued
LADY Somerset, was daily growing in
strength and Importance. She had found
during her trip to the United States a uni
versally sober womanhood. She had been
nresent at a number of social affairs at
which intoxicating drinks were among
,be refreshments offered to the guests and
she had only seen one woman partake of
wine or liquor.
The temperance work in the United
states was conducted on a grand scale,
and the w. c. T. e. was welding pow
erful influence throughout the whole coun-
try. Lady Somerset declared that it was
not true that the cause of prohibition was
a failure in the State of Maine. The illicit
traffic In intoxicants was very limited, and
as a proof that the excise laws were strictly
enforce she said that she herself was cog
infant of cases which happened within the
last three months where quantities Of
liauor had been seized by the officials and
the sellers of the prohibited goods had
been convicted and sentenced to Jail for
the term of imprisonment prescribed by
law. Continuing her address, Lady SOM
erset said that what was wanted in Eng
land to suppress the great evil Of intern
perance was a popular vote. She also
made some remarks in regard to the ques-
ton of woman suffrage both at home and
abroad and told her hearers Of the result
Of the observations made by her in this
matter during her visit to the United
states. She said that she deeply regretted
the opposing attitude which Mr.. Gladstone
had assumed in reference to the enfran-
chsement Of women. MS shown in his re-
cent pamphlet on the subject.

His Recent Pamphlet on Woman Suffrage
Raises Cain in the Liberal Ranks

Raises Cain in the Liberal RANKS.
LONDON. April % = Mr. Gladstone's
pamphlet on the woman suffrage question
has raised storm in the Womens Liberal
. association The pamphlet has haa a
tremendous influence. and is generally
considered as settling the chances of
woman suffrage for some time to come.
As aresut many members of the Women )
Liberal association are very angry. Those
that are angry are not all advocates of
woman suffrage, but they consider that
the Liberal party should not take an
aggressive stand against that doctrine
and that Mr.. Gladstone has ignored in
his arguments the earnest and successful
share of Liberal women In aiding the
cause of the Liberal party.
The association has exercised powerful
influence in elections and there is some
alarm among the Liberal leaders at the
feeling aroused. This alarm has increased
70 such degree that some of these lead
ers are endeayoring to explain to the
women that no offense is intended. 1t is
said that memorial prepared in favor of
woman suffrage, and signed by 100
branches OF the Women's Liberal associa-
tion is to be presented under the auspices
Of the association to the Liberal and Irish

made "a full vote, free ballot and a
fair count the shibboleth of Demo-

and few Democratic speeches have been
made that did not give it echo.
1t sounds strange for any man even
claiming TO be Democrat to oppose
the demand for fair election, and vet
claiming to be Democrats as they do.
the supporters of Hogg are undoubtedly
opposed to full and fair expression Of
the voice Of the people.
n Not only have they tried, by means
of cooked up opinion from the at
torney-generaps department, to muddle
up matters so as to throw the whole
vote Of the cities that have adopted the
Australian ballot law in doubt, but thev
have actually sought to keep voters

vote as the bulldozers wish.

JOHN F. linn, the Peoples party can
didate for county judge, is good, hon
est man, but doesn't it take something
more than honesty and goodness to fill
the position to which he aspires? Has
he ever attained sufficient knowledge Of
law to secure a license from the district
court of his county? How can he ad-
minister the law when he is not even
grounded in the first principles of prac-
tice? Surely voter desiring to employ
a teacher for his children would not en-
gage the services OF man who had not
become qualified by previous exper-
fence Or learning to instruct them. Or
would he, desiring information on the
simplest question Of law, go to an attor-
ney Of recognized ability for advice or
to man who had never made the
slightest pretense to knowledge of
even the elementary principles of
practice?
