An Eagle Carved In IRON

Japanese patience is proverbial. A
remarkable example of what it will
accomplish when combined with
manual and artistic skill is to be ex-
hibited at the Chicago Fair. 1t is a
hand carved iron eagle, the work of
Japanese artist, Shinjiro Ita-o of the
province of Xii and it took him isut
five years to make it. 1t is two feet
in height and measures from tip to tip
of the extended wings five feet, the
weight being l33 pounds. The head
is SO constructed that it will swerve
from side to side like that of live
bird. The bird has more than 300
feathers, made separately by hand, the
lines on each numbering several hun
dred, and some of them are of such
remarkable fineness that in order to
preserve their uniformity of appear
ance fresh tool had to be employed
after cutting three or four of them
This will give some idea of the pa-
thence and care required for success
full accomplishment of the work.
Shinjiro Ita-o captured two eagles.
One he killed and stuffed and the other
he kept alivo. lie used both as mod :
els, SO that while engaged in his work
he could study the bird both in repose
and in action. New York Herald.

The assembling of CONGRESS in

The assembling of Congress in
extra session in September will af-
ford time for the intentions of that
body in regard to the Sherman law,
and the silver question generally,
to the clearly made known before
the meeting of the conference. 1t
Is thought quite possible that upon
the action of Congress may depend
the question whether the confer
ence will reconvene at all.
When the tariff fight begins the
Capitol will be lhronged with manu-
facturers or their agents. If they
are unable TO persuade Congress
men that their cause is just, it may
not be very difficult matter to Sc
cure the services OF some legislator
who will fihbuster to the death to
prevent anv legislation at all. 1t
is generally accepted that Mr..
Crisp will be the next Speaker, and
it is generally understood that be-
tween the present and next Septem-
Der the rules will be reformed.
1t Is unfortunate for Mr.. Olnev
that they are not all Cordage trusts

own rope.

GOVERNMENT AIDFOR ROADS,

Establishment OF a Department of
ROADS at Washington Advocated.
1t is safe to affirm that 70 sub
Ject needs greater agitation than
that of roads, and what is true of
one state is no less true of every
other state in the Union. The
roads OF Massachusetts. like nearly
all the highways in New England,
exist where first were only foot
paths, leading from cabin to cabin of
the early settlers. and as the latter
generally built their homes on ele-
yat'ons for safety, these trails in
time became roads devlatlng but
little from the beaten track. Thus
we have a system of highways run
nlng over the most billy parts of
our country.
To remedy this evil and con-
struct system of roads on the
most improved plans would cost
millions of dollars, and the various
towns would ind it impossible to
carry out such an undertaking, for
many of them ale heavily IN debt,
the tax rates are high, a large num-
Der of the farms are partially or
wholly abandoned, and in some
portions of the state there seems to
be an atmosphere of discomfort set
Ting down upon the farmers.
a country can i'll afford to neg
lect the farmer or discourage any
reasonable measure. for promoting
and encouraging agriculture, be-
cause the life and success of ma
ton depends upon her agricultural
resources, and the prosperity of the
farming community rests largely
upon the facilities for communicat
ing with the thicklv settled sec
tons. Where there are no rail
roads the farmer must from neces
s,ty take his produce to market
over the public highways, and
where the latter are bad the cost of
transportation often exceeds that of
raw n aterial.
In many of the towns throughout
the state frequent discussions on
the subject of better roads" have
taken place, and there seems to be
a general ava kening to the fact
that the farmer is badly handi-
capped IN his race with other
branches of industry. However So
Der and industrious he NAV be.
however much the demand Tor his
produce may increase, and the
market may grow, the present ia
cllltles for transportation place in
his path an obstacle which he is un-
able to surmount. This has a most
depressing effect upon the farmer.
We believe the time has come
when the government should lend
It's aid, and it seems proper. there
fore, to advocate the establishment
of department of roads at Wash
ington. The duties of this COM
mission shoulu be to control and
instruct similar commissions main
tanned by the several states,
and these state and national
commissions should be given entire
charge Of building and maintaining
"A system of macadam roads which
would be for the best interests of
the country.
With a system of good roads,
property would greatly increase in
value, many Of the abandoned acres
would again be brought under Gull
tivatIon, and much would be added
to the comfort and prosperity of
the people.-Clarence ID. Warner,
