able gathering OF representativ tive mer
from all parts of Missouri. He did
not come to contribute anything oi
value but to be a listener, and gain from
the deliberations of this splendid
gathering. He had been invited tC
attend the meeting, and recognizing
the great importance of the subject t.
be considered, he felt that it was hi.
duty TO attend. He was not only q
citizen who had the good of the state
Of Missouri at heart, but he was also a
state official and ex-ofiicio, a member
of the State Board of Agriculture.
The question of state roads was OF
vital Importance, and he was glad to
see the subject becoming of national
a. well Us of local moment. Much
thought and consideration had been
gwen the subject, and many diverse
opinions were held as to the best mode
of procedure and the best methods 10
he employed, but the fact that the
subject was being earnestly agitated,
was sure indication that good results
were bound to follow.
Everyone was interested, and a
fine system of good roads was of the
utmost Importance when considered
with the mining and agricultural pur-
suits alone. Every one is acquainted
with the poor condition of the coun-
try roads. and until the state had a
more perfect system Of good roads,
the natural resources of the state would
lie dormant and undeveloped.
There was only one way to get these
roads and that was TO pay for them.
If necessary to raise the revenue for
these needed improvements by taxa
ton. then let us amend the state con-
stitution SO as to allow of doing 80.
Let the whole matter be submitted to
the people. Working the convicts
upon the roads would not dc. Three
important matters must be considered
the taxpayer, convict, and the Ii
borer. There must be no conflict.
and every interest must be considered.
The burden on the taxpayer would
he light. and the amount of benefits
derived would fully Offset the slight
and taxation.
The want of good roads he fully
recognized, and the present gathering
had hi> earnest sympathy. He would
do all in his power to further the con-
summation Of any laws which had as
their purports good roads. But he ad-
vised careful consideration OF all the
points, and cautioned them
to Use moderation and reason in their
After again thanking
them for the honor he retired.
His remarks were received most en-
by the convention, and
Judge Houston of Greene county, in a
witty manner, moved that Gov. Stone
be elected an active member of the
proposed road association. Mr.. Murd-
felt and several Others seconded the
The Sedalia weekly bazoo. [volume] (Sedalia, Mo.) 187?-1904, 1893-01-24

motion, and Gov. Stone was elected
an active member by reclamation.
Gov. Stone thereupon thanked the
convention for the honor conferred,
The committe on organization then
submitted a partial report in which
the governor Of the state, the men,
bers Of the legislature, those already
enrolled, delegates selected by any
means, members of local road associa-
ton and those connected with the i'm
provements of the highway were all
recommended for membership.
On motion of q. ". Crawford of
Lamonte, the report and recommend
alton of the committee wa= adopted.
DIR. Porter then moved that those
present who wished to enroll be re-
quested to do 60, and that while that
was being done the assembly take 4 re-
cess of fifteen minutes which was
adopted.
While awaiting the report of the
committee on organization the chair
requested J. h. Gwynne, executive
commissioner of the Worlds Fair
Board of Missouri,to address the meet
ing. We regret that time and space
will not permit of our giving this adj
dress at length, IL it was full of meat
and of great interest to every citizen

most iavorably upon the successful
labors of the Missouri Worlds Fair
commission, but it also demonstrated
that the people of Missouri were alive
and awake to the importance of adver-
Using to the world the great rich
ness with which she IS endowed. Mr..
Gwynne is an orator of commanding
power and an most engaging address.
and his remarks were listened to with
the most profound attention, and Is
each good point was scored the au-
dienee stamped the same with its ap-
prevail by round of loud applause.

THE SEATTLE noopLERs.

Mayor Ronaid's Democratic reform ad-
rninistration of Seattle has had pin stuck
in 1t, and the wind is leaking out. An or
gsnization of citizens, with no political as
pirations. is the medicine that will put re-
form into the platforms OF all reform par
ties. Hhatcop. Express.
There is general upheaval in the city
Of Seattle. The great and only reform
administration" was not reposing on bed
Of roses before, but since Treasurer Krug
has decamped and the subsequent investi-
CATION has thrown q little light on the
methods of his office-and the shady trans
actions in which many Of the faithful are
badly mixed up-the city government,
from top TO bottom, has been protesting
its innocence and honesty - Saohemish
Tribune
The Posr-lNTELIIGEScKR Is not OF the
kind TO let up with its work half done,
and II Seattle succeeds in sending some of
her public thieves TO the penitentiary, the
moral effect on other counties in the state
will be very wholesome. There Is a lax
administration Of justice. and the thank
less task Of pursuing and furnishing the
law-breaker falls upon and must be as
sumed by q fearless press Nooksack Re
porter.
If seattle's mayor is not put abed"
soon he will bankrupt the city for tele-
grams, and the st. Paul chief of police
will die from laughter. Mr.. Ronald is not
only heroic, but humorous. Tacoma Nesrs.

Old GENERALS.

The death Of Gen Mirabei is made the
text for the statement that II great var
should break out tomorrow IN Europe
there are no generals Of experience TO lead
the armies 70 battle. II is twenty-three
years since any European army has been
in the field. with the exception OF the
camtaign OF the Russians against the
Turks fifteen years ago.
This Is really not matter Of any conse-
quence. Moltke, the brains OF Germany in
the Frsnco-Prussian var. never saw any
lighting save when be was young officer
In the war between the famous Mehemet
Ali. pasha Of Egypt. aud Turkey. In
modern days experience under fire counts
for little or nothing. How much did il
count for when Bonaparte, . captain Of
battery, was ordered 10 the army Of Italy
How much did il count for when Wash
ington, who saw Braddock's defeat, vas
given command Of the armies of the
American coloniesf How much did
il count for when a raw tavern bully.
Cromwell, vas made colonel OF o regi-
ment7 How much did il count for
when a second lieutenant of battery in
the Mexican wal was made commander of
the % Coo men. that captured Fort Donel-
son and finally won Lees sword at Apo
mattox?
Modern warfare Is mathematics. Moitke
was a military mathematician. The Ger
mans can put five millions OF men in field |;
with Moltke to move them they are am
pie for ofiense or defense. but Moltke is
as rare an even: as Frederick the Great.
The age or experience under fire will count
for little or nothing. There are plenty Of
sub-lieuienants who can execute orders

tary mathematician. old or young. who
can do the work of Moltke

order from Health Officer Palmer in

sirEe.ions from the auditing committee
not TO send patient to the hospital with

the health officer by telephone, but could
not locate him for half hour. Mean

James A. Moore returned yesterday from
long trip to Boston. Chicago and other
Eastern cities. The money market has
eased up very much in the last two or three
weeks" said he, sin fact the moneyed
men say that the improvement has been
phenomenal. OF course the improvement
will not be felt here just yet, but the presi-
dent of one of the largest banks in Boston
told me that he expected great demand
for money in the next three months, par
ticuIarly for Western securities. and he
expects that money will be cheaper than
for the last ten years. The reason Is that
business has accustomed itself to doing
with less money, and when the money
that has been boarded is brought ont for
investment again there viii be almost a
glut in the market"
W. c. Garfield, prominent merchant Of
Port Angeles, is at the Grand. He says
that better times are expected soon in
