Bad Roads Iniure the Towns

It is obvious that cities are interested commercially in the improvement of country roads. In Springfield. Ills, a few years ago, during long period of wet weather in the early spring, the price of hay went up to $50 per ton. and the market was supplied by railroad from outside of the state, while on farms a few miles from the city hay was plenty at SlO per ton, but embar goed by mud. In this case the mud tax could not have been more direct if it had been levied on every horse and COW in that city, and if so levied the rate would probably not have been less than S2O per head on all such animals The farmer lost a market. but the townsman lost money in hand. Instances of this sort could be multiplied indefinitely. New Roads and Road Laws" by Roy Stone

MoNTANA,S ELECTION.
The People of Helena and Marcus DaIy's
 VIII.


 Special Correspondencc.l
 HELENA, Mon, Sept. 2I.-Is Is not often, even in new states, where electoral contests arc proverbially spirited, that there is as much excitement as there Is over tho election of the present year in Montana, for upon 1t hangs tho answer to the question, Which Is stronger. Helena or Marcus Dalyf Either his plans or their cherished hopes must fall to the ground. He desires to remove the capital of the state from hero to Anacondn, while the people here arc determined that his will shall not prevail. Marcus Daily Is well known tho country over as n millionaire minc owner, racing man and lumber man. He made Anacondn what it is, and its mines in turn made for him tho bulk of his enormous fortunes. Naturally the Anacondnns worship him, and naturally, too, Helena people are not fond of him. Outside tho two places opinions arc dIvid- cd aS to what the outcome will be, but Daily has not So far failed tu carry every election that he has taken an interest in. In politics he Is Democrat, hut 1t was his friendship for tho Hon. Thomas Henry Carter, who became chairman of the Re publican national committee in 1899, that won for him the election us territorial delegate to congrcss over his Democratic opponent, Clark, in lSS$.

 It. however, held that the section should stand in which the men were prohibited from combining and conspiring to quit, with or without notice the service of said receivers, with tho object and intent of crippling the property In their custody or embarrassing tho operation of said rail road
 The decision was considered by the law. yers who packed the courtroom as one of the most important opinions delivered in the United States in n decade. It defines the status before the law of labor organi- cations in their conduct of strikes and affirms the powers of courts of equity to interfere by injunction when there is req son to believe that the law will be violat- cd. It holds that men may withdraw in Q body from tho service of the employer, using, however, neither force, threats, persecution nor intimidation toward em- ployccs who do not join them, nor must they use any device to modest, hinder, alarm or interfere with others who desire to take their places ''

farer Of carrying a fortune around his
body.
As his face turned towards the North
his thoughts went to the border town
where he had spent his childhood. His
father and mother were dead. and he
doubted now II any enc there remem-
bered him or would have a welcome for
him. Nevertheless no spot on earth was
so dear to him, and 1t had always been

took wife. to retire TO the quiet little
town.
The weather at least gave him a surly
welcome. On the last days tramp tho
wind howlsd and the -ain beat In gusts
against him, but he was q man who
cared little for the tempest, and he bent
his body to the blast, trudging sturdlly
on.
1t was evening when he began to recoy-
nize familiar objects by The wayside,
and he was surprised to see how little
change there had been in all the years
he was away. He stopped at an inn for
supper, and, having efreshed himself
resolved to break the rule he had made
for himself throughout the journey. He

1t was nearly midnight when he saw

when he began to descend the valley, on

thrill OF fear came over him, al he re-
membered what he had 80 long forgot
ten-that the valley was haunted, and
was a particularly dangerous place
about the hour of midnight. To divert
his thoughts, he then began to wonder
who the woman was he would marry

The Bruiser had been urged to ny, but
he was a man Of strong common sense,
and he thoroughly understood the flu
tility Of flight. His face and his form
were too well known all round the
country. II would have been impos-
sibls for him to escape even IL he had
tried to.
When the Yorkshire Chicken recovered
the Bruiser's friends laughed at his
resolve to quit the ring, but they could
not shake 1t. The money he had won In
his last night, together with what he had
accumulated before-for he was a frugal
man-was enough to keep him for the
rest OF his days, and he resolved to re-
turn to the border town where he was
born, and where doubtless his fame had
preceded him.
He buckled his guineas in q belt
around him. and with q stout stick in
his hand he left London for the North.
He was a strong and healthy young man
and had not given way to dissipation,
as so many prize-fghters had done
before, and will do again. He had a
horror OF q cramped and confined seat
in a stage coach. He loved the free air
Of the heights and the quiet stiffness of
the valleys.
1t was In the days OF highwaymen,
and travelling by coach was not con-
sidered any too safe, The Bruiser was
afraid Of no man that lived IL he met
him In the open with a stick in his
hand or with natures weapons, but he
feared the muzzle of pistol held to his
head In the dark by a man with a mask

name. Abel Trenchon. set his back to

and journeyed on foot along the kings

wayslde inns, taking up his quarters
before the sun had set and leaving them
when Il was broad daylight In the morn
Ing. He disputed his reckoning like a
man who must needs count the pennies,
and no one suspected the sturdy way
