THE debate in the House on the bill of its
Road Committee proved anew that in the
economic means Of obtaining good roads
we are far behind the age; that there is
imperative need for the suggested In
quiry Bureau, which is intended shall
exploit the whole matter, and bring to
the assistance of California the knowledge
of which we are not now possessed We
cannot afford to go to mill with stone in
one end of the bag any longer. We must
know what are our road material re-
sources, what are the approved m ethods
of road construction, what the policies
that are most economic and why it is
that such woful waste goes on in this
State in road economics. We are con-
WINGED from very much study, observa-
ton and inquiry, that the seat of all our
trouble is the lack of information how
best to do. To remove that we must set
on foot such inquiry and teaching as will
give US economic and speedy good re-
suits. Since road-making touches the
quick of most reforms demanded in Cali
fornia Immediately related to transporta-
ton, settlement and development, we
should not neglect any means to promote
it in its best form and to it's highest pos
sibilities. Time, life and money are too
precious to longer waste on abandoned
methods and systems.

tuok the position that the OILY thing that
would bring cotton up to fair prices was to
manufacture 1t into goods near the cotton
fields. He said until this was done. all the
associations and resolutions could not
change the depression in prices. He made
a strong argument for the esta blishment of
small factories throughout the South for
the handling of all the products of the cot

Boston, January 9.-Recent dispatches
stated on the authority of a United States

Armenian wife. Consul Jewett is not
married and does not employ woman SER
