There are now three condemned

Prendergast was astir early this

talked for awhile with his death
Waterman.

II will get a new trial, and it will
be more fair than the one just
closed.

continued the prisoner hopefully.
When a reporter sent in a request
for a short interview with Prender-
CAST, the assassin sent back a very
decisive ''no."
"The newspapers have all been
against me-" he said, "and l won't
talk for publication"
"There is no possibility of a final
decision being reached in Prender
CASTS case for at least a year." sale

IT is high time that the crank

IT is high time that the crank
problem was being dealt with in a
practical and determined manner.
The fact that one of these unfortu-
mates may be irresponsible only
makes him the more dangerous and
increases the necessity for placing
him under restraint. The death of
such men as Garfield and Carter
Harrison, the attempts that have
been made upon the lives of other
great men of the country and such
threatenings as the kidnapping of
little Ruth Cleveland, make more
apparent the imperative necessity
of providing some adequate means
for the restraint of this class of citi-
Zens.

a convention of delegates from the

100 delegates and visitors in attend

reclte the depressed condition of
business and indorse and reaffirm
the Omaha platform. A resolution
was also adopted against the issu-

A Plea for Dirt Roads.

The advantage of properly built
and well maintained dirt roads
seems to have been largely over
looked in the movement for the inn
provement of our country roads, and,
it has been said, with some reason,
that the movement in favor of good
roads has been hampered to some
extent by a somewhat too enthusi-
astie advocacy Of broken stone roads,
either macadam or telford. The
cost of such stone roads is absolute
ly prohibitive OF their adoption in
many parts of the country where,
however, improved roads are urgent
ly needed. Comparatively little is
said about dirt roads in the discus
sion on improved construction, but
it is certain that very excellent
roads may be made Of earth by
proper system of construction. Both
surface drainage and sub-drainage
are essential in obtaining a durable
road, and intelligent maintenance is
another essential, which latter is
rather difficult to insure. The mere
dumping of piles of earth in wet
spots or low places is not mainten-
ance, but is mere waste of energy
due to carlessness or misdirected
zeal. With a good dirt road once
completed it would probably be
found economical and advantageous
to intrust its maintenance to a few
skilled and intelligent men paid for
their service, instead of leaving the
maintenance to the spasmodic at
tentionof the farmers and their hired
men.

REFERRING to the proposed limit
ed issue of bonds by the government,
an eminent Democratic journalist
says. There is another reason,
and an equally good one, why the
Government should have the au-
thority to borrow money in reasona-
Bile amounts. Congress has been
directed by the people to make a
decided and decisive reduction in
the tariff, for the purpose on the
mi hand of relieving consumers
from the burden OF the double tax
now levied, one part-and the
smaller-for the Treasury and the
other for the benefit of favored man.

to diminish the cost OF materials.
This commission viii be carried out.
1t is wholly impossible accurately
to foretell the effect upon the rev.
enue. In the long run there is no
doubt whatever that the lower rates
will produce an ample income. But,
while there win be certain falling off
which cannot be strictly estimated,
and while the condition Of the Treas
ury is such that there is no surplus
or accumulation TO meet this falling
off, there are only two alternatives
open to Congress. One is to Keep
the changes in the tariff within such
narrow limits, and at the same time
to impose such new taxes that the
revenue viii be not only maintain.

other is to authorize q moderate loan
ON short time at q LOW rate OF inter

latter. It is q straightforward, hon.
