Building Good Roads.

AS illustrative of the small cost of
building good roads, the following from
the Elizabethtown News is of interest
"The work has actively begun of put
ting rock and gravel on several of the
principal roads in the county. kellar
has his large crusher set on Mr.. Alfred
Browns place on the Shepherdsyille
road and is crushing about l20 yards of
rock dav. Commissioner Branch in
forms us that he is hauling the crushed
rock two miles from the crusher and that
it takes thirteen wagons to keep up with
the machine. By the contract the rock
crushed for mile of road costs 1892 and
putting the rock on costs S202.50, this
makes each mile of pike cost 1854 90.
The work of graveling the Bardstown
road two miles out from town will prob
ably be completed this week. From
twenty to thirty cars loaded with the
gravel come from Colesburg every day
and long line Of teams are going all the
time making the road. We understand
that nearly all the roads are to be gravel
ed two miles from town."
The figures here given are especially
suggestive when it is remembered that
in many parts OF this county the finest
quality of stone can be had in abundance
and need be needed but short distance
to the roads where needed. The work
of thus improving our roads would give
employment to large number of idle
men and every dollar it costs would be
left among our home people. The added
value to the farms of the county would
more than cover the entire cost of con-
struction.
May we not hope that some not far
distant day will see this yeform started
here ?-Hartford Herald.

SOONER OR LITER.
The Day is Coming That All Catholic
Saloon Keepers Will
Either
Have to Quit the Business or Leave
The Church-Be Excommuni-
Gated.
CATHOLIC TEMPERANCE MOVE.

The most important service rendered
to the cause of temperance for many
years is to be credited to the Catholic
Church. Bishop Watterson, of Column
bus, O., issued Il pastoral letter with
drawing his approval from any ard every
Catholic society having a liquor-dealer
saloon-keeper at its head or among its
officers until it ceased to be so differed,
and also forbidding the admission OF any
one engaged in the manufacture or sale
of Intoxicating liquors to membership in
any such society in his diocese. An APP
peal was taken to Mgr. Satolli, and he
sustained the Bishop, thus giving his
potent Endorsement to the idea that the
liquor business should be placed under
the ban of the church in a positive and
practical way. This action on the part
OF the Pope's representative in this
country is being severely criticised in
certain quarters, but it is not likely to
be reversed or modified. He has put
himself Internationally on the side of
temperance and aggressive hostility to
the liquor interest, Notwithstanding the
fact that large proportion OF the saloon
keepers in the United States are Catho-
lies, and he may be expected to maintain
that position and to use his influence in
all ways for the suppression of the most
prolific OF all sources of vice and misery.
At the recent meeting of the Catholic
Total Abstinence Union at st. Paul, the
course of Bishop Watterson and Mgr.
Satolli was approved in emphatic terms.
THE scandal of a preponderating num-
Der OF Catholics in the saloon business
has been too long endured" 1t was
declared, land this Convention rejoices
that a new day is at hand" Resolutions
were passed urging Catholics to Danish
liquor from their homes, clubs and BAN
quets, to exclude saloon-keepers from
their societies, and to refuse their sup
port to Catholic papers that allow liquor
dealers TO advertise in their columns.
The Pope sent his special blessing to the
Convention by cablegram, and letter
was received from Mgr. Satolli saying
that 'the total abstinence society is the
guardian of the homes of America, and
they who refrain from intoxicating
liquors secure an incorruptible crown for
religion and country" Archbishop Cor
rigan has written letter in which he
cordially accepts the principle of Mgr
Satolli's decision, which implies an in
tention to enforce it in New York; and
other prominent Catholic leaders have
expressed themselves in the same way.
The opposition to this new policy is
formidable, to be sure, and ii will not
surrender without determined struggle;
but in the end IL will have to yield, and
the victory thus gained for temperance
will be a most notable one, rejecting
much honor upon the Catholic Church,
and contributing greatly to the welfare
and happiness OF the country.-Globe-
Democrat

INVESTMENTS.
These May Be- Made Bad in These
Disturbing Times If We Are
ThOughiIess.
The Sober, Industrious Classes
Will Be The Salvation of the
Country.
THEY ARE CONSERVATIVE.

Hereafter in this country the line will
be drawn very sharply between the
anarchistic enemies of property and the
safeguards of order, and the conservative
people who respect those rights and de-
mand their protection as essential to the
maintenance and progress of civilization.
These sane and law-abiding people
make up the great mass of our society
They are citizens who command the
most honor and WELD the most influence
in every community. They are men
and women who bring up their children
in the fear of God and inculcate in them
the virtues OF sobriety, industry, thrift,
and fidelity to duty. They teach them
that it is wrong and disg' aceful to take
what does not belong to them or to in
terfere with the rights of their neigh
bors. They tell them that wastefulness
in the use of their own or the property
of others committed to their keeping is
sinful.
The great mass of these families are
poor people. The rich are few compare
lively. Their children are instructed
that they will have to work for their liv-
ing, as their parents do. They are
taught to despise begging and to abomi-
nate stealing. They are taught to rem
der faithful service for the wages paid
them, guarding the interests Of their en-
ployers us duty they owe to themsel-
yes. Obedience, integrity, and the
cheerful performance of their tasks in
the best way they know how are incul-
Gated in them from their earliest youth.
They are taught to be saving, and thus
to acquire respect for the rights OF prop
erty. They are warned against malice
to others.
These people make up the best and
the largest part of our society. They
support the churches and they are self
sacrificing in giving a schooling to their
children. They are the quiet people
who avoid mobs and do their own think
ing without seeking assistance from
bowling labor agitators and socialistic
demagogues. They mind their own bus
mess and are not willing that Debs and
his kind should manage it for them. So
proceeding, they often have something
laid by for rainy day, and they want to
keep it, They cannot keep it under an
anarchistic rule opposed to all property
and the right of everybody to hold and
enjoy his own securely and honestly.
These people are going to do the rul-
ing hereafter more carefully and thor
oughly than ever befvre, and it will be
woe for the political party which sets
itself against their determination. This
is bad time to make political invest
ments in the properties OF Populism,
Communism and Anarchy.-New York
Sun,

the most eloquent OF ALL and few men
did as much as he to keep Kentucky in
the Union. II one would learn what a
wizard Of speech he was let him, xamine
the old files of the Louisville Journal Of
the spring of 1861 and read Hollis ia
nous letter and even more famous
speech
He continued to support the Union
cause until the end. Unfortunately for
him, a woman, now unanimously ac-
Quilted of guilt, was accused at a time
when mere cha'ge was fatal, and Holt
prosecuted that woman and got YER
dict. She was executed by the hangman,
and that fact it was that drove Holt from
the public gaze. He was forced to aban'
don political ambition at time when he
was in the full fruition Of his prodigious
intellectual powers, and when his match
less powers as an orator were at their
zenith.
But his account is closed. He is be-
yond the reach of all his enemies. He
belongs to history; but it will be years
yet before history renders final judg-
ment in his case and in the great cause
of North versus South in which he was
so conspicuous both as an advocate and
as an actor. SAvoYARD.

Some funny men subscribe for paper

the funniest OF all are the men who take
