So its Canada that wants that big
slice of Alaska, is it, and not England?
They got big slice from the 40 degrees
up to 81 degrees, 40 minutes, in the
Oregon divide that they were not en-
titled to. But Uncle Sam knows more
about the Northwest and values it high

wonderfully changed since the old pa

Better Roads.

The movement for good roads grows
apace. The people are gradually real
izing that the United States is far be-
hind other nations in the character of
its country highways, and that revo-
luton in our methods Of road making is
absolutely necessary. The cheering
news comes that the Massachusetts
Highway Committee is rapidly solving
the problem of better roads in that
state. Its scheme for highway i'm
provement is becoming popular, and
petitions have already been received
for more than 700 miles of improved
highways to be constructed under the
present law. Largely increased appro-
priations are looked upon as assured for
the coming year.
There are two road systems which
have produced effective results, name
ly the Massachusetts system and that of
New. Jersey. They are different in de-
tail sand the reason why both have sue
ceeded is not far to seek; it is found in
the fact that an enlightened opinion in
each state has demanded the roads.

THE DE LAMAR NUGGET
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER IS. 1895,


Here is an item in Hon. Ignatious
ponnelly's own style, and reads straight
from the shoulder
We have just heard of case amusing
in its aspects, but which yet illustrates
the wretched condition of the farming
class. A farmer near Crookston, Mimi,
had some stacks of oats burned up by
sparks from a railroad locomotive and
sued the company for damages: where
upon the company defended on the
ground that it would have cost the
farmer so much to thresh the grain, SO
much to haul it to the depot, and so
much to haul it to the end of their road;
and that the aggregate expenses were
more than the casts were worth in the
terminal market, and therefore Mr..
Hayseed was in debt to the railroad
company forthe stacks they burned.
This is like the fellow who made an
unprovoked attack on peaceful citizen
and then sent him bill for damages
for spraining his wrist by hitting him
on the nose.
But what lovely condition of things
for free people to fall into! Vote the
old party ticket 1t don't make any
difference which party, for they are all
the same.

Nevada, which has heretofore been
famous for its wonderful production of
silver is by no means tagging behind
in the change from silver to gold min
ing. 1t is, in fact, preparing to take
high rank as gold producer, and, like
Colorado, may yet turn the tables upon
the gold standard East by taking adj
vantage of the low prices that have
been forced upon everything but gold.

The question is not whether the av-
erage Venezuelan is as fine specimen
of civilized manhood as the average
Englishman, says the Washington Post.
1t is whether England, merely by vir-
tue of her superior strength, shall be al
lowed to help herself to such of Ven
zuela's territory as she happens to covet.
We haven't doubt that the Anglo
saxon is a more progressive race than
the Latin. We feel sure that Venzuela
populated by Englishmen and guided
by English customs and ideas, would
become infinitely greater and more
prosperous than it is likely to become
under existing conditions. Let this be
admitted and put TO one side finally.
What we insist upon is the right of the
Spanish Ameaican people to ra:ain pos
session of their own territory and to be
rich or poor, dignifed or ridiculous,
progressive or stagnant, respectable or
fussy, splendid or contemp tible, just as
they prefer. There is no other ques-
ton before u.s. What Venzuela chooses
to do with her own property is no bust
ness of ours. What England may want
to do with Venzuelas property is very
much our business, as the world will
find in good time argo Forum.

officials of that city and it is said fund
of $4,000 will be raised with which to
conduct experiments.
Hundreds of thousands of dollar day

the use of hydrogen as explosion balloons.
His plan is to establish fog stations be-
