ROADS OF MICHIGAN.
Lack of System Has Been a Ear to Their
 Improvement.


 Placed at the entrance to the Trans portation building at the Worlds fair, writes Freeman Lathrop ill Good Roads, were these words of Macaulay Three things make a nation powerful and great-a fertile soil, busy workshops and easy transportation for men and goods from placo to place.
 Michigan has the fertile soil and busy workshops, but the easy transportation is limited to her lines of railroad.
 Possessing excellent material in near ly every county and township even for the construction of good roads, it is a lamontable fsct that for the most part her country roads are an abomination. Her roads arc dirt roads. Few of them outside of toll roads are graveled, and where gravel roads are found they ex- ist in detached links, and the work is Intellectually done, conforming to no standard or gauge.
 The great difficulty under which Michigan has been laboring up to date is lack of any system. She has been running under that old slipshod, go-as. you-please law of assessing labor tax III 0dCu bO"usulp huu olSCt1uH pdluIudS- ters to supervise the work. These path masters serve for ono year. There has been no law directing how any road should be built outside of toll roads, so that each of the thousand pathmasters has followed his own sweet will.
 Comparatively littlO honest work has been done, and most of that has been in- judiciously applied. How could any thing else be expected while working under such Q law! believe that the consensus of opinion among tho intelli- gent farmers will sanction the state ment that on the average one-third the road tax. if paid in money. would ac- oomplish as much ns the whole applied directly in labor.
 believe it Is demonstrated that the people and no nation has secured per manent and first class roads for any great extent of territory when relying entirely upon local taxation. The farm ing community must not be asked to build the country roads alono. The state must interest itself and furnish in some manner portion of tho road fund. The country roads are for the benefit of the public at large

The Moro Observer Answered.
The DAILEs, Or, June %. 's5.

HE OALLES, OEsS JUNO SS1 OCs
EDITOR DALLEs CHRONICLE I'm your
issue of today, I find under the heading
of "Wasco County Roads" an article
from the Moro Observer, regarding an
accident that befell Mr.. G. w. Fairchild
of Grass Valley, some weeks since near
the junction of the so-called Miller and
free bridge roads in this county. Now,
while we have no desire to speak ad-
versely of articles that are published for
the purpose of awakening interest in the
improvement of any and all roads, yet
we do feel that when such articles are
published, facts should be stated that
they might have some weight for good
and not appear to the public as mere
attempts to throw adverse reflections on
those not deserving them. In the case
on hand the man who met with the mis-
hap would have given truthful state
ment for publication if requested to do co.
Now we do not deny that the point at
which the accident occurred was q
narrow curve in the road, as is the case
at many points on the roads of Oregon,
but to use the language of Mr.. Fairchild
himself, cit was no worse than it had
been for years." and he had been over
the same ground many times. We feel
certain that a man of Mr.. Fairchild's
Judgment and ability would not have at
tempted a passage at the point in the
road alluded to, had he not felt COM
petent to make the turn with coupled
| taor, a a v,oopu 0%bora have dono Lofo.o
and since the accident, but the true
cause of the overturn of Mr.. Fairchild's
team. as stated to us by himself, was the
breaking of an axletree of hia leading
wagon, which happening just at the
curve in the road, caused the upset into
the ditch, which instead of being go feet
deep, as stated by the Observer, was 1C
or IL feet deep; nor did the horses allow
themselves to be pulled off the road, but
kept it and as to the demolished wagons
the cost of repairs was about $17, after
which We saw the same wagons with theil
load of wool, on their way to this city
Now, Mr.. Editor, wish to say
that while we know of the accountability
of counties for damages under certain
circumstances; we have no anxiety
about any later results from this acci
dent, other than that the makers of the
wagon, (Which was new one), should
in our opinion, make good to Mr.. Fair
child his loss in full.
! Hoping this article will remove an.
fear of accident from the minds of thos,
who the Observers article may hav,
frightened into using other routes to anc
fromsthis city and without any remark
as to the best route to Southeastern
Oregon, we shall endeavor, as we Away

New Prime Minister to Be
Called.
WHICH ONE OF THREE MEN
Salisbury, Balfour and the Duke Of
DevOnshire are Mentioned--News
From Abroad.

LONDON, June 22.-It is requirement
of official etiquette that upon resigning,
a ministry shall give no hint of such in
tention until it has first been announced
to the queen and to the house of COM
mons; but there is practically no doubt
that the Rosebery government, after
cabinet council of five hours, determined
to resign, and that Lord Rosebery, who
had already been Commanded to din
ner at Windsor, will use the occasion to
surrender his Office. 1t is also the GUS
tom for the prime minister to recon-
mend to her majesty his successor.
Lord Rosebery may name Lord Sails
bury, Mr.. Balfour or the duke of Devon
shire.
It is etiquette for the queen to send
first for the person named. If it is
Lord Salisbury, he may decline and sng-
gest Mr.. Balfour or the Duke of Devon
shire, or vice versa. In any case it
seems to be the general impression that
even the conservative party will not
again risk poor premier, and that Mr..
Balfour will be chosen. But any one of
tks three or any other conservative may
decline. Then Lord ReseberY will re-
tain Office and be in a stronger position
than before. He has defeated and offer
ed the opposition control of the govern
ment; they declined, therefore, they
confess that he has the real majority as
representing the effective lower house.
If conservative leader accepts, there
is no real doubt that he will find a ma
jority, even if small, against him. He
cannot dissolve parliament until the
the supplies have been voted, and lib
eral majority can prolong the session
for months.
Soon after the council broke up fol
lunch, at 80, Postmaster General

man were summoned to confer with
Lord Rosebery. This started the rumol
that the ministers will finally decide tc
resign and cast upon the opposition the
responsibility of the government, anG
make it select a time for the dissolution
of parliament.

and Rosebery started for Windsor to in
form the queen of the decision of tn,
