WAITE'S FOLLY.
COlOradO's Governor Overrides Pub'
lie Opinion and Calls that
Extra session.

Denver, Dec. 26.-In spite of the over
whelming protests by the people of this
state, Gov. Waite issued his call for an
extra session of the legislature on January
7. The call is very adroitly worded,
favorlng all manner of local schemes in
various sections 80 as to win the legisla-
tors to the proposition. 1t also advocates
state coinage as constitutional right.
The universal sentiment expressed by the
press and all leading citizens to-day is
one of bitter resentment against the gov
ernor's fantastic views. 1t is now sug-
gested that the Legislators obey the call,
then simply meet and adjourn sine die
for the credit of Colorado.

Good Roads Promote Trade.

We have good roads in the cities,
where we call them streets or avenues,
and that is the reason why team of
horses can draw trucks and loads of such
weight, and do it easily, as would give
any team on country road a sufficient
excuse for becoming balky. If the coun-
try roads were what they ought to be
the farmers would save much wear and
tear Of wagons and horses and be able to
carry larger loads to market, and city
folks who go out walking or driving for
pleasure and health would be able to
secure both.
Even in rainy weather travelling would
not be unpleasant. Certainly it would
not be dangerous Or tiresome. as it is now,
in the bad spots or bad roads, and pedes-
trianism, equestrianism and vehicular
travel would be largely encouraged and
the peoples knowledge Of other people
and other places than those about them
would be largely increased by personal
observation, and these are both very de-
sirable ends to seek.
The trackless forest belongs to the saw
age state, the footpath to the barbarian
but good road is a mark and triumph
of civilization. 1t not only encourages
frequent, perhaps constant, intercourse
among the people; it also helps trade, and
the interchange Of commodities is as i'm
portant as the interchange of opinion.
There may be some who think this state
ment a little overdrawn, so far as the in
fuence of good roads is concerned, but
they must be Of the sort who never make
use Of roads, except railroads. Brook

ture between us and the Sandwich Is
lands"
How different would have been the eff
fects of genuine free trade from those Of
this spurious article called ''reciprocityv'
Genuine free trade with ell nations of
the earth in regard to sugar and rice
would have given our people what they
have never had-the full benefit of cheap
sugar and rice-and would have left no
"jobs" for rich speculation. The Sand
witch Islands would have had no unfair
advantage in our markets, and, though
sugar production might not have in
creased from 1900 tons in 1875 to 1885,
900 in 1890, the sugar growers would
have been prosperous and the islands
owned mainly by natives, who would
still be free to choose their own ruler and
the kind of government preferred.
Nor would the present revolution have
occurred in conjunction with the request
that Hawaii be annexed to the United
States if it were not for the special and
unconstitutional legislation granting a
bounty Of cents per pound to sugar pro-
ducers in this country. It is probable
that the sugar bounty clause will be re-
pealed before Hawaii could be annexed
and its sugar growers benefited by it, but
the dangers of special legislation are well
illustrated by the present situation and
its dangers.-Byron W. Holt.

the Wisconsin marriage laws are well
enough as they now stand, if they are

reposed in them, should be called to

that there is great difference be-
